Emergencies in Durham

Burst pipes don't wait. Neither do we.

When water's coming through the ceiling at two in the morning, you don't want an answering machine. You want a real person who'll send someone out. That's what you get.

We cover Durham and the surrounding area, and being local means our vans are usually close by. Burst pipes, major leaks, no heating or hot water, and anything causing damage to your home get treated as urgent.

We explain the likely cost up front and confirm it before we proceed, even out of hours.

How we work

Six steps. No surprises.

Step 01

Enquiry logged

Tell us the work, the property, your timescale and budget through our quick form, and upload any plans or photos. Everything in one place from the start.

Step 02

Initial review

We review what you've sent and decide the best next step, whether that's pricing straight away or sorting drawings, planning or building control first.

Step 03

Site visit

Where it's needed, we come and look properly: access, structure, levels and anything affecting the cost. Your chance to ask questions before we quote.

Step 04

Detailed quote

A clear, transparent quote setting out what's included, assumed and excluded, with a payment structure. Confidence in what you're accepting, not a one-line price.

Step 05

Planned properly

Once you're happy, we sort dates, materials, access and building control before anyone lifts a tool, so the job runs smoothly on site.

Step 06

Work begins

Our team arrives clear on the agreed scope, keeps the site tidy, communicates as we go and respects your home throughout.

Questions we get asked

Emergencies in Durham. Straight answers.

How quickly can you get to me in Durham?

We prioritise emergencies and aim to attend as fast as possible. Being local to Durham means our vans are usually close by, whether you're in the city, Belmont, Gilesgate or out toward Newton Hall.

Are you really available 24/7?

Yes. Our phones are manned around the clock by real people, every day of the year. We dispatch an engineer rather than logging a job number for the morning.

What should I do while I wait for the plumber?

If it's a burst or major leak, turn off the water at the stopcock and switch off the electrics if water is near them, then ring us. We'll talk you through it on the phone if needed.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

Burst pipes, major leaks, no heating or hot water, blocked drains overflowing, and anything causing damage to your home. If you're not sure, ring us and we'll advise.

Will I get a price before work starts?

Yes. We explain the likely cost up front and confirm it before we proceed, even at 3am. No surprise bills.

Do you fix the problem or just make it safe?

Both. We make it safe first to stop the damage, then carry out the full repair, all with our own trades.
