Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

After Hours Plumber - FAQ

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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you wait, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch any 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We know a blocked pipe can be a major problem. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 obstructed drain send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

You regularly do not realise how frequently you count on effortless quick hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished in the garden and really need a wash? Need to finish off a pile of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s tepid.

When the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it sorted as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Did you know about 30% of your home power bill is used on hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water disasters damage your wallet, get them fixed speedily.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Runciman after hours plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

Big and little, hidden in the ground or in the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a hidden but indispensible part of daily activities. They carry fresh water to your house, and remove used water and sewage away.

Often, you don’t even recall them until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is generally a serious issue that needs to be fixed immediately before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our after hours plumbers are ready to get to you right away, so ring our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe fail?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a extremely cold region, they might have frozen and burst. They may just be old and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots may grow into subterranean pipes.

When our 24 hour plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a annoying tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious vexation. A little thing that might go unheard in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, ruining your deams.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you want a whole new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist 24 hour plumbers will speedily find the problem and resolve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Runciman with after hours plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or too small.

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

If the drip is not aggravating enough to need repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
