Plumbers in Southend-on-Sea

Yes. We take emergency calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week, across Southend-on-Sea, Leigh-on-Sea, Westcliff, Shoeburyness, Rochford and the surrounding towns. For a burst pipe, a leak through the ceiling or an overflowing toilet, call 07830 356263 rather than using the form.

For genuine emergencies we aim to reach you within about an hour, depending on where you are and what we are already attending. Non-urgent repairs are booked in at a time that suits you. We will always give you an honest idea of timing on the phone.

On hourly-rate jobs there is a minimum charge that covers the first hour. After that, time is charged in 15-minute blocks, so you only pay for the time the job takes. If a part isn't on the van, the time spent collecting it is capped at an extra 30 minutes of labour. We explain the price before any work starts, and you can pay by debit or credit card.

Turn off the water at the stopcock. If water is near lights or sockets, switch the electricity off at the consumer unit if it is safe to reach. Then open the cold taps to drain the pipes, move valuables out of the way, catch drips in buckets or towels and take photos for your insurer or landlord.

In most homes the internal stopcock is under the kitchen sink. If it isn't there, look in a downstairs toilet or utility room, under the stairs or wherever the water pipe comes up through the floor. In flats it can be in a hallway cupboard or airing cupboard. Turn it clockwise to shut off the water. If it is seized or won't close fully, we can replace it.

Yes. Our plumbers hold City & Guilds Level 2 plumbing qualifications and are DBS-checked. We also hold ERS accreditation for unvented hot water cylinders. We are a limited company (company number 11202501), registered since 2018.

Yes. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If something we fitted or repaired gives you trouble in that time, call us and we will come back and put it right.

We cover the plumbing side of your heating and hot water: radiators and radiator valves, leaks on heating pipework, hot water cylinders and immersion heaters. Work on the gas side of a boiler must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer, so describe the fault when you call and we will tell you straight away whether it is something we can fix.

We are based in Rochford and cover all of Southend-on-Sea, including Leigh-on-Sea, Westcliff, Chalkwell, Southchurch, Thorpe Bay and Shoeburyness, plus Rayleigh, Hockley, Benfleet, Canvey Island, Basildon and more. See the full list on our areas we cover page.

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents and commercial premises, and we take on insurance work. We can attend out of hours to keep disruption to tenants or trading to a minimum.
