Immediate safety steps
Safety before plumbing questions
A plumbing emergency can also involve electricity, gas, contaminated water or structural damage. Do not take a repair risk just to complete an online enquiry.

Use the right emergency contact
If anyone is in immediate danger, contact the appropriate emergency service. For urgent plumbing help, call 020 3488 1404.
