Plumbing emergencies don't wait for office hours. A burst pipe can flood a room in minutes, a leaking cylinder can bring down a ceiling, and a blocked drain can make a home unusable. When it happens, you need someone to answer the phone and get to you quickly — that's exactly what we do.
Our emergency plumbing line is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, covering Essex, London, Kent and Suffolk. Call us, tell us what's happening, and we'll talk you through isolating the water to limit the damage while an engineer heads your way.
When to call an emergency plumber
Some problems genuinely can't wait. Call us straight away for:
- Burst or leaking pipes
- Major water leaks or flooding
- A leaking or overflowing hot water cylinder
- No water at all
- Severely blocked or overflowing toilets and drains
- Leaking or dripping boilers (see emergency heating)
- Water coming through ceilings or light fittings
- Any leak you can't isolate or control
What to do while you wait
A few quick actions can dramatically limit the damage before we arrive. First, find your internal stopcock (usually under the kitchen sink or where the water enters the house) and turn it off to stop the flow. If water is near electrics, turn off the electricity at the consumer unit. Then move valuables away from the water and, if it's safe, catch drips in buckets.
Don't worry if you're not sure what to do — call us and we'll guide you through it step by step on the phone. Staying calm and stopping the water are the two things that matter most.
Water near electrics or coming through the ceiling? Turn off the electricity at the consumer unit and keep everyone clear. Call us immediately on 07530 994829.
