Frequently Asked Questions - Important

After Hours Plumbers 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 there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important things, wipe up any water, and place a container to catch any drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 as well.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Runciman urgent plumbers know that a clogged drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That is why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

A obstructed drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our urgent Runciman plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to prevent further damage and get back 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.

Do not let a obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Want a good soak to defrost after a freezing day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a good clean up when the water is not hot.

If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you want it to be repaired asap. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can quickly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired promptly, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not able to be fixed, our reliable team can assist in picking the best solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, we can arrange for repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Big and little, buried under the ground or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a hidden but key part of your daily activities. They bring fresh water to your residence, and transfer unclean water and sewage out.

Once there is a problem though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is worrying stuff, and you need it resolved as soon as possible to prevent damage to your home, your furnishings and even your health.

Our after hours plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so contact our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you reside in a cold climate, the pipes might have frozen and burst. They might simply be old and worn out. They might not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots can force open subterranean joins.

Our urgent plumbers can identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks expeitiously and efficiently.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Issues Solved

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major vexation. Something that may go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, ruining your sleep.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills increase even higher, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our urgent plumber right away.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our urgent plumbers have got what you require. All the vans are fully equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you need, we can put in a temporary faucet until we find the style you need.

From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, we can also provide a wide selection of other plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it is not annoying enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie a length of twine around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
