Emergencies might be in our name, but we do a lot more than that. We’re happy to take on everyday plumbing jobs in Castleford, and bigger pieces of work too. If it’s not urgent, we’ll come out, give you a free estimate and book it in for a day that works for you.

Small but annoying

Dripping taps, a toilet that never stops filling, a slow bath, or a new washing machine to connect.

Bigger planned work

Plumbing for a new bathroom, new water supply pipes, drain replacement and relining old drains.

Checks and surveys

Drain camera surveys when you’re buying, and tracing drains before you build.

Whether it takes an hour or a few days, you’ll deal with the same local plumber, know the price up front, and be left with a tidy home.

On a Friday night, a family found a leaking pipe in their basement that needed attention straight away.

They rang us, and we were round within an hour to find the leak and fix it there and then.

The result

Problem solved the same night. In the customer’s words: “Very polite and prompt service.”

FAQ

Emergency Plumbing in Castleford – FAQs

Common questions from customers in and around Castleford.

Still have a question? Speak directly to your local plumber. 0114 321 2272
Do you cover all of Castleford?

Yes. We cover the whole of the WF10 postcode, including Glasshoughton, Airedale, Whitwood, Cutsyke, Hightown, Fryston and Allerton Bywater, plus nearby Normanton (WF6), Featherstone (WF7) and Knottingley (WF11).

How long does it take you to get to Castleford?

For emergencies, we aim to be with you in under 60 minutes. We come from our base in Sheffield via the M1 and M62, which brings us out at junctions 31 and 32, right on Castleford’s doorstep.

Will you charge me just for coming out?

No. There’s no call-out charge, and estimates are free. We agree the price with you before we start.

Can I call you in the middle of the night?

Yes. We’re available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including bank holidays.

The drain is blocked outside – is that Yorkshire Water’s job?

It depends where the blockage is. Drains that only serve your home, within your boundary, are usually yours. Shared sewers and those outside your boundary are usually Yorkshire Water’s. We’ll find out and tell you. See our blocked drains page.

Can you do planned work, not just emergencies?

Yes. We do everyday plumbing and bigger jobs too, like lead pipe replacement, new drains and new bathroom plumbing, booked in at a time that suits you.

Yes. Both have their own pages, and we cover the whole of the Wakefield district.

What payment methods do you accept?

Cash and card. We’re VAT registered too (VAT number 458472459).
