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.

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once that is done, give us a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, clean up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You should also 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 Hassles

We understand a blocked pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That is why our team of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains cleared.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Runciman plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team 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 clogged pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

Had a hard day at work and badly want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have a sink-full of dishes to finish off? It’s rarely handy to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is tepid.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We will be there promptly to figure out the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very swiftly.

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 immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

Big or little, buried in the ground or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a concealed but important part of your daily life. They bring clean water to your abode, and remove dirty water and sewage away.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it repaired asap to prevent damage to your home, your furnishings and even your health.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are waiting to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce further damage.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and split. Tree roots may have grown into underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

Our emergency plumbers can diagnose and repair the burst pipes or leaks rapidly and professionally.

All Taps Handled

Tap Leaks Fixed

Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether defective?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how annoying it is to have a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is reverberating around your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a serious problem.

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

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

From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too extensive or small for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad range of additional plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can usually replace worn out parts on the spot for a very acceptable price.
