Frequently asked questions

What should I do while I wait for the plumber?

For water leaks, turn off the main water supply — usually at the meter near your front boundary. If you smell gas, turn off the gas at the meter, don't use switches or flames, open windows and leave the house. For gas leaks you can also call the gas distributor's emergency line.

Do you really answer the phone at night?

Yes. Our emergency line is available 24/7 for urgent plumbing and gas problems.

How fast can you get here?

It depends on where you are and how busy the night is. We'll give you an honest estimate on the phone and confirm it before we leave — we won't promise a time we can't keep.

Can you help with an insurance claim?

We provide itemised invoices and can describe the cause of the damage in writing, which most insurers ask for.
