What to do first
when water won’t stop.

If water is flowing right now, stop reading and turn off your water at the meter or isolation valve, then ring a plumber who can confirm they are coming. We will be straight with you: this website takes email enquiries. It does not run a 24-hour phone line and cannot promise to attend tonight, and you should not wait on us while your house floods.

EMERGENCY PLUMBING GUIDANCE IN IPSWICH

How we find the cause.

Shut the water off at the meter or the isolation valve if you can safely reach it. Stay clear of wet electrical equipment and switch off power to affected areas at the board if it is safe. Then ring a plumber and ask them directly whether they can attend now, or contact the relevant utility if the problem is on their side.

Tell whoever attends what is happening, whether the supply is isolated, and what the hazards and access are. Do not attempt a repair you are not confident in while you wait. Photographs taken safely are worth having later, for your own records and for any insurance claim.

What to send us

Have your address, access details and a short description ready before you ring. Know where your water meter is: finding it in the dark during a burst is a bad time to learn. Once the immediate emergency is dealt with, our enquiry form is a good way to organise the follow-up repair properly.

What actually moves the price

Confirm attendance charges, the initial assessment and what you are authorising directly with whoever attends, before they start. After-hours work is priced differently from planned work, and it is reasonable to ask for that up front even in a hurry.

WORTH KNOWING

Straight answers.
Awkward ones too.

Is Ipswich Blocked Drains available 24/7?

No. We do not advertise a 24-hour service or immediate attendance, and we would rather tell you that plainly than have you waiting on an email at midnight. For an active emergency, ring someone who can confirm they are on their way.

Will the enquiry form send a plumber out?

No. The form starts an email conversation about your job. It is not a booking, a dispatch service or an emergency line.

What should I tell an emergency plumber?

Your exact address, what the water is doing, whether you have turned it off, any safety hazards and how to get in. Keep it to those five things and let them ask the rest.
