Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water tap to cut off all the water to the residence.

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things from the area, and clean up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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 also.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Runciman on call plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

A blocked drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock 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!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a hot shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Got some dishes to deal with? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed fast so your life can get back to normal.

Did you know around 30% of the average home power bill is used on hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your home and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water disasters hurt your pocket, get them resolved speedily.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our helpful team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

The pipes in your residence are a normally concealed but very important part of daily life. Big and little, in the ground, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Often, we do not even recall them until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s generally a serious problem that needs to be sorted urgently before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to help Runciman residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the property.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have iced up in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots may have grown into subterranean joints. Or there may be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

When the on call plumber is present, they can identify the problems and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Problems Fixed

Do you have a troublesome faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major annoyance. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, ruining your sleep.

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

Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole new tap, our on call plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have the tap you require, we can put in an interim faucet until we locate the style you need.

From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too extensive or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we also provide a broad selection of other plumbing services.

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

If it is not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Or tie a piece of string around the tap spout long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
