We’ve been serving Croydon for years, and our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, parts and equipment to solve all sorts of plumbing problems quickly and effectively. We will tidy up any mess we have made prior to going.

What do you do when a plumbing disaster hits? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the power off at the switchboard.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important things, wipe up any water, and put a container to catch any drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
The main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the mains off can protect your house from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance fast. Our emergency Croydon plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.
Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unclogged.
Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Croydon plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we require available to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are finished.
If you have a plunger handy you can attempt to break up the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please don't use chemicals as they seldom do the job properly and the chemicals can damage your drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
It’s been a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Got a few dishes to finish up? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is cold.
If the hot water is not hot enough, you need it to be remedied as soon as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very quickly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Croydon emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and area. If the whole hot water system needs improvements, we can organise to do that in a timely manner as well.
The pipes in your house are a largely concealed but indispensible part of your everyday life. Big and small, in the earth, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they bring fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.
Normally, we do not even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s usually a major problem that needs to be fixed immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.
Our emergency plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so contact our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.
Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. The pipes may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have iced up in extremely cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have invaded subterranean pipes. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.
When our after hours plumber is present, they will isolate the issues and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.
Do you own a problem tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a significant annoyance. A little thing that can go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, give us a ring.
Whether you need an entire replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can quickly locate the cause and resolve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as providing Croydon with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or too small.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?
Find a length of twine of some kind, and tie it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
