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

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

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and remove valuable possessions from the area. If the house 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help fast. Our emergency Runciman plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the drains cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 blocked pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have a few of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it working again as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can swiftly put the power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted speedily, it will become more costly by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman emergency plumbers immediately. We will 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 your existing hot water cylinder is not repairable, our friendly plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the little clean water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there’s an issue.

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it repaired asap to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your well-being.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be with you quickly. Our team are ready to take your call any time. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further damage.

Why did my pipe fail?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you reside in a extremely cold climate, they may have frozen and split. They might just be old and worn out. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots can grow into subterranean joins.

Once our urgent plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and fix them in a prompt and professional manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a problem faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a significant aggravation. Something that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, destroying your deams.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles 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 install a temporary faucet until we find the style you need.

As well as providing Runciman with emergency plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or too small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it’s not bad enough to warrant fixing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot some twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
