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.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to solve the issue.

While you wait, begin wiping up any water, position a container to catch any drips, and clear away important things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, 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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Runciman urgent plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing right away. That is why we have our after hours plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our urgent Runciman plumbers will quickly identify the problem and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the problem to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.

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 pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

You generally don’t think about how heavily we count on effortless quick hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished in the garden and really want a wash? Want to finish up some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s barely warm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give our plumbers a ring. We’ll be there swiftly to diagnose the problem and find a solution. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman after hours plumbers immediately. We’ll 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, needs and location. If your entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can schedule to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

The pipes in your home are a generally hidden but very important part of your everyday activities. Big or little, subterranean, in the wall or the roof or under the floor, they carry clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, we don’t even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a significant problem that needs to be resolved immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our after hours plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent yet more damage.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They might simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have iced up in extremely frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots may have grown into underground joints. Or there could be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.

Once the urgent plumber is present, they can isolate the issues and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

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

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how irritating it is to have a dripping or defective faucet. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is echoing throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a serious problem.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, give us a ring.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to remedy your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From after hours plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

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

If it’s not aggravating enough to need fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot some twine around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
