An emergency plumber in London, any hour

Emergency Plumber London Ltd has answered London’s plumbing emergencies since 2019. Ring 07861 933265 or send a photo on WhatsApp and a person picks up, day or night. There is no call-out charge, the rate is the same at 3am as at noon, and an engineer is usually with you within 60 minutes. Our office is in Wood Green, N22, and we cover all of London and the towns around the M25.

What counts as an emergency

Water you cannot stop: a burst pipe, a leak through the ceiling or a leaking radiator. A toilet that is overflowing or a drain backing up, especially if sewage is involved. No water at all, or a frozen pipe in a cold snap. Anything near electrics. A slow drip into a bucket or a shower that has stopped working can usually wait for a booking at the same rate, and we will tell you which yours is.

Before we get there

Find the stopcock and turn it clockwise until it stops. It is usually under the kitchen sink, under the stairs or just inside the front door, and in a flat it may be in a hall cupboard. If water is near sockets or light fittings, switch off at the consumer unit, but only if you can reach it safely. If you smell gas, leave the plumbing and ring the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 first.

What we do not do

We do no gas work of any kind, so boiler repairs, servicing and gas certificates are for a heating engineer. Everything on the water side is ours: pipes, tanks, cylinders, radiators and the pipework to them, taps, toilets, drains and leaks.

Where we cover

Every area we work in has its own page, written about the homes there and what tends to go wrong in them: start with north, south, east or west London, or see every area we cover.

What customers say

Rated 4.9 out of 5 from 94 Google reviews, and 9.83 out of 10 on Checkatrade for the last 12 months (148 Checkatrade reviews in all). Read them on our reviews page.

Learn it before you ring anyone

Most problems are easier, and cheaper, once you know what is actually going on.

Questions people ask

How much does an emergency plumber cost?

There is no call-out charge. It is £99 for the first hour, then £49 for each additional half hour, plus the cost of parts, and the same at any hour of the day or night.

How fast will you actually get here?

Usually within 60 minutes anywhere in London. If it will be longer where you are, we say so when you ring, so you can decide.

Do you do non-emergency work too?

Yes, bathrooms, radiators, unvented cylinders and drainage surveys, at the same hourly rate and with the same guarantee, booked around your diary instead of your disaster.

Do you work on gas or boilers?

No. We are plumbers and drainage engineers and do no gas work of any kind, including boiler repairs, servicing and landlord gas certificates. For those, book a heating engineer. If you smell gas, call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 first.

Are you actually open 24 hours, or is that an answering service?

Twenty-four hours, including Christmas Day and every bank holiday, and a person answers. If we cannot get to you in a sensible time we say so on that call rather than booking you and hoping.

I searched for an emergency plumber near me, do you cover where I am?

We work across all 33 London boroughs and the M25 commuter belt, and every area we cover has its own page. If you are outside it, tell us where you are and we will say so straight away rather than sending someone on a two-hour drive and charging you for it.

What is the difference between an emergency and a same-day booking?

An emergency is water you cannot stop, no water, or a toilet or drain backing up, and we come out now. A same-day booking is for things that are urgent but safe to wait a few hours, like a failed shower or a slow leak into a bucket. The hourly rate is the same either way, and we will tell you which one you actually need.
