Things Buntingford customers usually ask about plumbing

How quickly can you actually get out?

For genuine emergencies in Buntingford — no heat, no hot water, an active leak — we aim for same-day. We'll tell you straight when we call back if a faster response isn't possible.

Do you charge an emergency callout fee?

We charge a clear diagnostic fee, told to you upfront before we set off. The repair itself is then quoted as a fixed price you agree before any work starts.

Are you 24/7?

We aren't a true 24-hour service — we're a small family business — but we pick up early and stay late, and we prioritise vulnerable households and no-heat situations through the day.

Can you find a hidden leak?

Usually yes — we use thermal imaging and pressure testing to trace leaks behind walls and under floors before we cut anything open.

Do you fit electric showers?

Yes, plus mixer, thermostatic and digital. We'll check your mains pressure first to recommend the right type.
