How to find a local, reliable 24 hour emergency plumber

Is your bathroom flooded? Is your toilet blocked? Whether a pipe in your home has just burst, or you’ve suddenly got a terrible smell coming from your kitchen sink, a local 24 hour emergency call out plumber can resolve the problem.

What can a 24 hour emergency plumber help with?

A 24 hour emergency plumbing service can help out with a range of urgent plumbing issues that need immediate professional attention. This is regardless of the time of day or night. Common emergency plumbing problems include:

  • Burst pipes
  • Clogged drains and blocked toilets
  • Leaking fixtures such as washing machines and radiators
  • Sewer system backups
  • Frozen pipes
  • Broken sump pumps (that can lead to basement flooding)
  • Broken water heaters (you can also hire a gas engineer for boiler repair and other heating services)

Whatever urgent plumbing issue you have, an emergency plumber can resolve it quickly and efficiently. Post a job to get into contact with a local emergency plumber.

What should I do whilst I wait for an emergency plumber?

While you wait for your emergency plumber to arrive, there are several steps you can take to reduce potential damage and ensure the safety of your home. For example, you can:

  1. Shut off your water supply: Locate your stop valve (usually under your kitchen sink or in an airing cupboard) and turn it off to prevent further water damage from a broken pipe or other major water leak
  2. Turn off your electricity: Leaks near electrical outlets and appliances can be electrical hazards
  3. Contain the water: Take towels, buckets, mixing bowls and any other containers you have and place them in the affected area to prevent water spreading and causing further damage
  4. Move furniture: Move valuable or delicate items away from the affected area to prevent them getting damaged
  5. Ventilate the room: If a clogged sink or sewage backup is creating a bad odour, open windows and switch on fans to improve ventilation

Make sure you communicate with your plumber if the situation escalates before they get there.

Factors to consider before you hire an emergency plumber

Whether it’s a broken pipe or a sudden loss of hot water due to issues with your central heating, an emergency 24 hour plumber can help.

Before you hire, you should do your research to ensure that your emergency plumbers:

  1. Are an experienced company with a strong history of successful projects
  2. Have all the necessary licenses and insurance needed to protect you and their workers
  3. Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
  4. Are offering the emergency plumbing work you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it done by
  5. Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other local plumbing companies

How much does an emergency plumber cost to hire?

How much it will cost you to hire an emergency plumber depends on a range of factors, including:

  1. When you need the plumber, with weekends, holiday periods, and non-working hour periods often costing more
  2. How complex and severe the plumbing repair is, with extensive water damage leading to higher service charges
  3. The cost of any parts and materials your plumber might need to fix your problem
  4. Where you live in the UK, with cost of labour rising in London and the South East

On average, you can expect to pay anywhere between £50 and £180 an hour for emergency plumbing services, with additional charges for any parts and specialist equipment needed to complete the job.

  3. How long will the job take to complete?
  4. How much will the job cost?
