After using many different sites to arrange a plumber, non turned up as planned. I read the reviews and gave Billy a call. He was at the property within the hour and had the job done efficiently! As a woman alone I felt safe with Billy as he was professional, explaining the job and cleaned up afterwards. Cannot thank him enough for the great work today! I will definitely use again!

We get called out to a lot of emergencies, but plenty of our work in Barnsley is planned. Small jobs, big jobs, and everything in between. For anything that isn’t urgent, we’ll pop round, give you a free estimate and book it in when it suits you.
Leaky taps, a toilet that won’t stop running, a sink that drains slowly, or a washing machine to plumb in.
Plumbing for a new bathroom, replacing lead pipes, new drains or relining a damaged drain.
A CCTV drain survey on a house you’re buying, or drain tracing before an extension.
Big or small, it’s the same service: one local plumber to deal with, a price agreed up front, and a tidy finish.

Why Barnsley Customers Call Billy Emergency Plumbing & Drainage
Ring us and you’re talking to the plumber who’ll do the job, not a switchboard.
Whether it’s inside the house or under the drive, we can sort it without bringing in another firm.
Pumps, awkward drains and stubborn blockages are the kind of work customers tell us other plumbers wouldn’t touch.
Case study: the shower leak that came back
Water was leaking from a bathroom into the dining room below. We came out within a couple of hours and resealed around the shower, but after the advised wait, the water came through again.
Back out within the hour. We checked all the previous sealing, levelled the shower tray and resealed everything again, and didn’t charge for the second visit.
No more leaks months later. In the customer’s words: “Billy didn’t charge any extra on his second call out which was very generous.”
