Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Urgent 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to stop all the water to the home.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant items, wipe up any water, and place a bucket 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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Runciman on call plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we have our urgent plumbing service.

A obstructed pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it is a item blocking the toilet, or 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 usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to prevent 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 blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the little clean water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there’s a problem.

Normally we never even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired asap, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and health.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Runciman residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots might have forced open underground joints. Or there may be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will locate the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if advised to check for other damage.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a problem 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. Something that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, destroying your sleep.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.

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

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

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

If it’s not annoying enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot some twine around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
