24 Hour Emergency Plumber throughout east Berkshire and south Buckinghamshire

Plumbing emergencies can range from a leaking tap or radiator to a blocked pipe, burst pipe, or broken boiler; whatever your emergency, we guarantee a quick response. Our emergency plumbers are all highly qualified and gas safe registered, so you can be confident that your plumbing repairs will be completed to the highest standard.

Before calling an emergency plumber or arriving, you should examine the situation more closely so that you can explain what is going on once the emergency plumber arrives.

Calling an emergency plumber, on the other hand, is more expensive, so you should think carefully before calling one to avoid paying extra fees you don’t need to pay.

Here are some plumbing and heating problems need to be fixed right away.

Damaged or Burst Pipes

The majority of water emergencies in the house are caused by damaged or burst pipes, which necessitate urgent action.

A burst pipe can cause several issues in your home’s plumbing and heating system, and it can break for a variety of reasons, particularly during the winter. For example, pipes can freeze, causing further damage.

No water coming out of your faucets or water leaking around where your pipes are located are both signs of burst pipes. If you do not immediately contact an emergency plumber, you risk flooding and a significant financial loss.

The best you can do before calling an emergency plumber is to turn off the main water supply. Then, to avoid further water damage, try to save any furniture, electrical devices, and other valuables.

Overflowing Toilet

This can happen as a result of a broken float mechanism, a clog, or, worse, both. If left unchecked, it can lead to the growth of bacteria and germs in your home, resulting in diseases or respiratory problems.

However, you might want to try the plunger first. But if you can’t fix the problem on your own and don’t have another toilet, you’ll need to call an emergency plumber to clear the clog.

Water Heater Failure

Hot water can run out for a variety of reasons, including a water leak, low water pressure, or a broken heating element.

What to do when there is no hot water in your home?

First, check to see if your water heater is receiving power, or if your combi boiler is working.

It can be a severe problem if the lack of hot water is accompanied by a gas smell. In this case, you will undoubtedly require emergency water heater repair.

Gas Leaks

This is one of the most dangerous situations that necessitate the services of an emergency gas engineer. If you suspect a gas leak from any source, turn off any gas-powered appliances in your home, and contact a gas safe registered heating engineer, making sure they can provide gas leak detection services.

Immediately contact an emergency plumber if you detect a gas leak.

You can verify that Atapos Heating is Gas Safe registered by visiting the official Gas Safe Register website. Our emergency heating engineer will be able to show his Gas Safe ID card.

Hissing or whistling sounds, particularly if heard near a gas line, may also indicate a gas leak. It is best to proceed with caution because natural gas buildup is extremely flammable.

Backed Up Sewage

A sewer backup is considered an emergency because it poses a serious health risk, similar to a gas leak. A sewer line clog can be caused by invasive tree roots, a broken pipe, or some other obstruction. A sewage backup not only has an unpleasant odour, but it can also be dangerous because it releases contaminants into the air, which can cause symptoms such as vomiting, fever, and gastroenteritis.

A broken or clogged sewer line will frequently appear in your yard as slowly accumulating pools of murky, smelly water or mushy soil. Or strange things happen inside, like toilets filling up when you run the sink or bathtubs filling up with sewage.

The sewer line is the only line in your home that transports wastewater from your toilets, sinks, showers, tubs, dishwashers, and washing machines. Without this line, your home cannot function; all activities are stopped until it is repaired.

This is why hiring an emergency plumbing company for this repair is critical. Through the sewer line clean-out entry point, a video inspection of the sewer line can be performed. A motorised drain snake will be used by an emergency plumber to auger out the sewer line. A line must be dug up and replaced if it becomes permanently blocked or broken.

Loss of Water

If you lose running water all of a sudden, you should call an emergency plumber as soon as possible to find out what’s wrong and fix it.

While it is not as dangerous as the other issues on this list, it is still extremely inconvenient.

You should contact an emergency plumber because this is a hygienic issue. After all, this isn’t a problem you can solve on your own. First, check with your neighbours to ensure that this isn’t a supply issue. If it is, you should contact your water company.

How much does emergency plumber cost?
