Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - After Hours Plumber

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff tap to cut off all the water to your property.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While you wait, begin cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove important possessions from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

Help, I don�t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We understand a blocked pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of after hours plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A obstructed drain is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our same day Runciman plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we return.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We regularly don’t realise how frequently we rely on easy quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really need a shower? Want to finish off some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s lukewarm.

When your hot water has let you down, give us a call. We’ll be there promptly to figure out the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can rapidly put the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed speedily, it can become more costly by the hour.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our reliable plumbers can assist in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can organise an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

Large and little, hidden under the ground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a hidden but indispensible part of daily life. They carry fresh water to your abode, and take unclean water and sewage out.

Ususally we don’t even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re standing in a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved asap, to prevent damage to your home, possessions and health.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are ready to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent yet more damage.

How did my pipe fail?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you reside in a very cold location, they might have iced up and cracked. They could just be aged and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots can force open underground joins.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if required to check for other problems.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. Something that might go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, destroying your shuteye.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to resolve your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Runciman with after hours plumbing of all kinds, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too great or minor.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of tap, we can often replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very acceptable price.
