A local, Gas Safe registered plumber for leaks, bursts, overflows and loss of water. Based in Farnborough, covering the surrounding GU towns, Monday to Saturday, 8am to 5pm.
Plenty of searches for an emergency plumber turn out to be jobs that are safer, calmer and cheaper as a booked appointment. Rather than sell you urgency, here is the honest split we use on the phone.
Burst copper in a cold loft, a split plastic run in a garage, a compression joint that has let go behind kitchen units. We cut the failed section out and remake it properly rather than clamping over it and hoping.
Float valves that will not shut, siphons stuck open and cold water storage overflowing into a bedroom ceiling. These are the calls that do the most damage per hour, so they get treated as urgent.
Seized stop taps, airlocks after works, failed valves and immersion faults. We trace back to the actual cause first, because replacing the wrong component is how people end up paying twice.
We are Gas Safe registered (554328), so a breakdown or a boiler leak can be dealt with in the same visit. Detailed boiler fault work lives on our boiler repair page.
Boiler fault rather than a leak? See our boiler repair page.
The number goes to the business directly. You describe what you can see and hear, and you get a straight answer about whether it needs someone today.
Where it is safe to do so, we walk you to the stopcock and through draining the pipework down. Stopping the flow before anyone arrives is the single biggest thing that limits damage.
A few questions about the pipe type, the age of the property and where the water is showing usually tells us which fittings and valves need to be in the van.
You get the price for the visit before we set off and a written price for the repair before anything is dismantled.
The business is based in Farnborough and works across the Hampshire, Surrey and Berkshire borders. If your town is on this list, you are inside the patch.
Checkable on the Gas Safe register, so a water-side call-out that turns out to be the boiler does not need a second visit from someone else.
Our published hours, stated the same way everywhere on this site. No overnight premium, because we do not pretend to run an overnight service.
No, and we would rather say so plainly than let you find out at 11pm. Calls are answered Monday to Saturday, 8am to 5pm. Outside those hours, turn the water off at the stopcock, leave a message, and it is picked up when the phone lines open.
The test we use is simple: is water escaping in a way you cannot stop, or have you lost water completely? If the answer is yes, treat it as urgent. If you can close a valve and live with it until a booked appointment, that is a normal job and it will cost you less.
Usually under the kitchen sink, sometimes in an airing cupboard, a downstairs cloakroom or behind a boxed-in panel near the front door. Turn it clockwise until it stops. It is worth finding yours now rather than looking for it with water coming through a ceiling.
Yes. Most urgent call-outs are water side work: pipes, valves, tanks, taps, toilets and radiator leaks. The Gas Safe registration matters when the fault turns out to be the boiler, and it means one engineer can cover both.
Farnborough and the surrounding GU postcodes first, then Aldershot, Fleet, Frimley, Camberley, Farnham, Yateley, Sandhurst, Woking and Guildford.
Water off, cold taps open to drain the pipes down, electrics off at the board if water is anywhere near them, and one photo of the wet area. That sequence turns most emergencies into a contained problem instead of a spreading one.
Describe what you can see and we will tell you honestly whether it needs a visit today or a slot later in the week.
