Emergency Plumber in Gravesend — 24 Hours a Day

We respond to plumbing emergencies in every type of Gravesend property. The older Victorian and Edwardian terraces are susceptible to lead and copper supply pipe failures, particularly where pipes run through unheated spaces. The large post-war estates at Painters Ash and Riverview Park have older pipework infrastructure that can develop sudden failures at compression joints stressed for decades. Ebbsfleet Valley's new builds occasionally call us for emergency leaks from push-fit joints disturbed during DIY work.

Genuine emergencies that need immediate attendance: burst or split pipe causing active flooding; major leak you cannot isolate; complete loss of heating or hot water in cold weather; sewage backup inside the property; boiler making dangerous noises or showing a fault that has cut all heating. If you're unsure whether your situation is an emergency, call us — we'll help you assess it over the phone at no charge.

Before we arrive: turn off your main stopcock (under the kitchen sink in most Gravesend properties), open cold taps to drain pipes down, move valuables away from water ingress, and take photos for insurance purposes. Emergency call-outs are charged from £150 for the first hour out of hours; standard rate from £85/hour during normal hours. Rates confirmed when you call.
