Emergency plumbing in Saffron Walden.
Start with what you can see. Open one for what we do about it.
We shut the water off at the stopcock, cut out the split section of pipe and fit new pipe. That means the leak stops and the ceiling below it can start drying out.
We trace the leak back from the stain to the joint or pipe at fault, then repair that. That means the damp stops spreading instead of coming back in a fortnight.
We check the stopcock, the valves and the pipe for an airlock, in that order. That means you get the supply back without anyone guessing at it.
We clear the blockage without damaging the pan, then flush it through to check. That means the only bathroom in the house is back in use.
We replace the failed float valve and set the water level. That means the overflow pipe stops dripping and the tank stops filling itself.
We replace the seized or leaking valve and test the isolation. That means you can turn your own water off next time.
Not on the list? Tell us what is happening and we will tell you the sensible thing to do.

Where in Saffron Walden we work.
Saffron Walden is an Essex market town split across two postcode districts. Emergency plumbing, drains and booked repairs run through both of them, town and village alike.
Postcode districts we cover here: CB10, CB11.
- Sewards End
- Ashdon
- Radwinter
- Wimbish
- Great Chesterford
- Little Walden
- Newport
- Littlebury
- Wendens Ambo
- Clavering
Saffron Walden is an Uttlesford town in Essex, and it is split between CB10 in the north and CB11 in the south. CB10 takes in Ashdon, Radwinter, Wimbish, Sewards End, Little Walden and Great Chesterford, which stands on the River Cam, or Granta. CB11 is the southern half, with Newport, Littlebury, Wendens Ambo and Clavering. The town is reached from the M11, at junction 8 from the south and junction 10 from the north.
A leak that is still running gets us moving, in the town and out at Newport, Ashdon or Radwinter. When you ring, give the village name first, then the postcode, then what you can see.
