Emergencies we deal with every week

A plumbing emergency is anything that is causing damage, leaving you without water or heat, or that simply cannot wait. If you are not sure whether it counts, ring us and describe it — we will tell you honestly.

  • Burst pipes and sudden leaks
  • Water leaking through ceilings or walls
  • No hot water or no heating
  • Boiler breakdowns and fault codes
  • Loss of boiler pressure
  • Overflowing or blocked toilets
  • Blocked sinks, showers and outside drains
  • Leaking radiators and radiator valves

What happens when you call

You speak to an engineer, not a call centre script. Tell us what you can see, hear or smell and we will usually have a good idea of the cause before we set off, which means we arrive with the right parts.

When we get there we find the fault, explain it in plain English and tell you what the repair will cost. Only once you are happy do we start work. If a part has to be ordered, we make the property safe and get back to you with a firm date.

Turning your water off in a hurry

Your internal stopcock is usually under the kitchen sink, in a downstairs cupboard or near the front door. Turn it clockwise to shut the supply off, then open the cold taps to drain the pipes. If water is anywhere near sockets, lights or the fuse board, switch the electrics off at the consumer unit first.

It is worth finding your stopcock now, while nothing is wrong. Knowing where it is can save thousands of pounds of damage later.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can an emergency plumber get to me in Cardiff?

We are a local Cardiff team and keep space in the diary for emergencies, so we can often be with you the same day. Call us and we will give you an honest arrival time rather than a vague window.

What should I do while I wait for the plumber?

For a leak or burst pipe, turn off the water at the stopcock and switch off the electrics if water is anywhere near them. Open the taps to drain the system, then put a bucket and towels under the leak.

Do you charge extra for emergency call-outs?

We tell you the price before we start any work so you can decide. There are no hidden fees added afterwards.

Do you handle both plumbing and gas emergencies?

Yes. We are Gas Safe registered, so we can deal with boiler and gas heating faults as well as plumbing problems on the same visit.
