Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

On Call 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 still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important things close to the leak, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our on call Runciman plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the clog 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 ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our after hours Runciman plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

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

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again asap so your life can get back to normal.

Did you know around thiry percent of the average home power bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water problems harm your wallet, get them fixed fast.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman on call plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again promptly.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

Large or small, hidden underground or within the floor, walls or roof, the pipes in your home are a hidden but indispensible part of everyday life. They carry fresh water to your abode, and transfer used water and sewage out.

Once there is an issue though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it fixed without delay to prevent damage to your home, your contents and even your health.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re waiting to answer night or day. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise further leaking.

Why did my pipe fail?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you live in a cold location, the pipes might have iced up and ruptured. They may just be old and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may grow into subterranean joins.

Our after hours plumbers can diagnose and repair the damaged pipes or leaks rapidly and precisely.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Leaks Resolved

Do you live with a irksome tap? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

We’ve been called to a range of tap problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial annoyance, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, call our team now.

Whether you need a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can rapidly identify the cause and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Runciman with on call plumbing of all kinds, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too large or little.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it’s not annoying enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Alternatively tie a piece of twine around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
