Plumbing repairs in Ilminster, Somerset and Devon
If you need a plumber in Ilminster, Chard or Crewkerne, we handle the jobs that turn up in every home: dripping taps, worn washers, leaking joints under the sink, toilets that won't stop running and pipes that have started to leak. We find the cause rather than patching the symptom, so you're not calling us back about the same leak next month. Most everyday plumbing repairs are finished in a single visit, and we'll tell you what's wrong in plain English before we start.
Emergency plumber: burst pipes and serious leaks
A burst pipe or a leak coming through the ceiling can't wait until Monday. We offer 24-hour call-outs across Somerset and Devon for plumbing emergencies. While you wait:
- Turn off the water at the stopcock. It's usually under the kitchen sink or where the water main enters the house.
- Switch off the electrics if water is near sockets, lights or the consumer unit.
- Open the cold taps to drain the pipework, and catch drips with towels and buckets.
- Call 07462 115949 and tell us what you can see.
If the leak is coming from the boiler rather than the pipework, our boiler repair team can help.
Blocked toilets, sinks and pipes
Blocked toilets, slow-draining sinks and gurgling waste pipes are some of our most common calls. We clear the blockage, check the trap and waste run, and tell you if there's an underlying fault such as poor fall on a pipe or an undersized waste. That way you know whether it's a one-off or something worth fixing properly.
Looking for new fittings rather than a repair?
If you are after a new toilet, sink, tap or appliance rather than a fix, see our plumbing installations page.
How to find and use your stopcock
Every householder should know where their stopcock is before they need it. Look under the kitchen sink first, then in a downstairs cloakroom, under the stairs or in the garage. Turn it clockwise to shut off the water. If it's stiff, seized or you can't find one at all, we can free it or fit a new stopcock so you're ready for an emergency.

Frequently asked questions
It depends on the job. A tap washer is a quick fix, while a burst pipe or tank replacement takes longer and needs more materials. We look at the work, explain what is needed and agree a price with you before any tools come out, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Yes. A burst pipe or a toilet that will not stop filling cannot wait, so we take emergency call-outs 24 hours a day across Ilminster and the surrounding area. Call and a real engineer will answer, not an answering service.
Turn off the water at the internal stopcock, which is usually under the kitchen sink. Open the cold taps to drain the pipework and, if the leak is near anything electrical, switch off the power at the consumer unit. If the leak involves a gas appliance, call the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999 first.
