Emergency plumber
in Brighton.

Brighton is a city built largely between 1820 and 1900, and the plumbing in many properties has had layer upon layer added to it ever since. In Hanover, North Laine, Round Hill and parts of Kemptown, it's common to find original lead service pipes still feeding the cold mains, ancient cast-iron stack pipes running up the back of the property, and a Victorian solid fuel range chimney that's been retrofitted as a boiler flue route. When something goes wrong on a system like this, knowing where to isolate it is half the job.

The other complication in Brighton is sheer density. Many of the larger Victorian houses have been split into three, four or five flats, each with its own bathroom and kitchen but often sharing a single rising main and a single waste stack. We get a steady stream of emergency calls where a leak from a top-floor flat has come through three ceilings before anyone noticed — particularly in the conversion-heavy streets around Seven Dials, Preston Park and the Lewes Road. Acting fast on these jobs isn't just about repair; it's about minimising damage to the neighbours below.

We also cover the modern marina developments, the seafront blocks along King's Road, and the student-heavy HMOs around the universities. Whatever the property and whatever the system, we'll be with you fast.
