What Is Considered a Plumbing Emergency?

Not every plumbing problem requires an emergency call-out, but some issues should be dealt with quickly to prevent water damage or further problems.

You should consider contacting an emergency plumber if you have:

• A burst or badly leaking pipe

• Water coming through a ceiling or wall

• A toilet that is overflowing and cannot be stopped

• A significant leak from a radiator or valve

• A leaking hot water cylinder or associated pipework

• A shower, tap or fitting that will not stop running

• A blocked toilet with no usable alternative toilet

• A serious internal drainage or waste-pipe blockage

• A plumbing leak affecting electrical fittings or appliances

• No water due to an internal plumbing fault

• Frozen or damaged pipework

• A leak that cannot be isolated or controlled

Small drips can often be booked as routine plumbing repairs. However, if water is escaping rapidly, damaging the property or cannot be isolated safely, it is sensible to seek professional help as soon as possible.

What Should I Do While Waiting for an Emergency Plumber?

If you discover a major water leak, acting quickly can help reduce damage.

If it is safe to do so, locate your property's internal stopcock and turn off the mains water supply. Open a cold tap briefly to help relieve remaining pressure within the pipework.

Move furniture, electrical items and valuables away from the affected area where possible and use containers or towels to control smaller amounts of escaping water.

If water is leaking near electrical sockets, lighting or electrical equipment, avoid touching affected electrical items and keep away from the area until it has been made safe.

When you call us, explain where the water appears to be coming from and whether you have successfully turned off the water supply. This can help us understand the urgency of the problem before attending.

Emergency Plumbing Repairs Across Southampton

Our emergency plumbing service covers a wide range of urgent problems in houses, flats, rental properties and small commercial premises across Southampton.

Burst Pipes & Major Water Leaks

Burst and leaking pipes can cause substantial water damage if they are not isolated quickly. We can locate the affected pipework, identify the likely cause and carry out an appropriate repair wherever possible.

Overflowing & Faulty Toilets

A toilet that continually fills, leaks or overflows can quickly become more than an inconvenience. We repair common toilet and cistern faults including faulty inlet valves, flush mechanisms, seals, connections and overflowing systems.

Leaking Taps, Showers & Valves

A failed tap, shower connection or isolation valve can release a surprising amount of water. Emergency repairs can help isolate the problem and replace or repair faulty components.

Leaking Radiators & Heating Pipework

Leaks from radiator valves, pipe connections and heating pipework should be investigated quickly, particularly where water is affecting flooring, ceilings or nearby electrical equipment.

Blocked Toilets, Sinks & Waste Pipes

Severe blockages can prevent toilets, sinks, baths and showers from draining correctly. We can investigate internal plumbing and waste-pipe blockages and determine the appropriate method of clearing the problem.

Emergency Bathroom Plumbing

Leaks behind toilets, beneath baths, around showers and underneath basins can sometimes remain hidden until water begins appearing elsewhere in the property. We can investigate bathroom plumbing leaks and carry out repairs to the affected plumbing.
