Get in touch

However you reach us, you'll deal with a person not a chatbot. As a result, your problem gets understood properly the first time you describe it. Furthermore, our dispatchers know the difference between a slow drain and a flooded cellar — so we don't send the wrong type of engineer.

For example, if you call about a backing-up toilet upstairs, we'll ask whether the downstairs sink also gurgles. Specifically, that one question often tells us whether the issue is in the trap or in the underground stack. The answer determines which engineer to dispatch and what kit they bring — so we arrive ready to fix the problem, not just to investigate it.

How dispatch decides who to send

When you call, our dispatcher matches your job to the engineer best placed for it. Specifically, we cross-reference your postcode, the type of fault, the equipment needed, and current engineer availability before quoting an ETA. As a result, you get someone who knows the local pipe infrastructure rather than the first available tradesperson on a generic list.

For example, a CCTV survey requires a different engineer and van loadout from a high-pressure jetting job. Furthermore, a leaking radiator valve and a burst mains incomer look superficially similar on the phone but need very different skills. Consequently, we ask a handful of diagnostic questions before booking. The answers determine which engineer arrives, what they bring, and how long the job takes.

Although our network covers over 800 UK towns, response times vary by location and time of day. In particular, rural postcodes outside the main motorway corridors may add 20–40 minutes to ETA during peak periods. We tell you the realistic arrival window before you hang up. No padded estimates, no surprise delays once the engineer is en route.
