Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency 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 water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

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

While you wait, start mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and clear away significant possessions from the affected area. If the property 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you need help right now. Our emergency Runciman plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a professional there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our on call Runciman plumbers will quickly locate the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers 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 Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to deal with? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. Our team will be there swiftly to identify the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the usual home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very swiftly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 the cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but integral part of everyday life. Big and little, in the earth, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Once there is a problem though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it resolved without delay to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your well-being.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are ready to take your call any time. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise further leaking.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and burst. In a recently built home, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our on call plumbers will diagnose and fix the burst pipes or leaks speedily and cleanly.

All Taps Handled

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you live with a irksome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious aggravation. A little thing that can go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, disturbing your shuteye.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call us now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to fix that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, we can also offer a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth repairing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Or knot some twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
