Quick answers on plumbing in Chigwell

What counts as out-of-hours?

Evenings after 6pm and Sundays. Saturday daytime is normal hours for us.

What's the minimum charge?

We don't have a fixed minimum — you pay our diagnostic fee plus the agreed fixed price for the repair, with a small after-hours uplift on the labour element.

How fast can you respond to a burst pipe?

We aim for same-day. Call us first — we can talk you through stopping the water immediately while we head over.

Do you fit electric showers?

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