Emergency Plumber in Filton: What to Do First
When water’s going where it shouldn’t, the first few minutes make a big difference to the damage. So here’s what to do while our emergency plumber is on the way to your Filton home.
Shut the Water Off
First, find your stopcock. It’s usually under the kitchen sink, but in some homes it’s in a cupboard under the stairs or next to the boiler. Then turn it clockwise until it stops. However, if it’s stiff, don’t force it, because old valves can snap.
Make the Area Safe
If water is near a light fitting or socket, switch that circuit off at the consumer unit. Next, move rugs, electricals and anything valuable out of the way. Finally, put towels and bowls down to catch what you can.
Get in Touch
Tell us what’s happening and where the water’s coming from. We’ll give you an honest arrival time based on where our engineers are working, and send the nearest available plumber.

Hidden Leaks and Low Water Pressure in Filton
Not every plumbing problem announces itself. In fact, some of the most common calls we get in Filton are for leaks you can’t see and water pressure that has slowly dropped.
Leaks Under Floors and Behind Walls
A damp patch on a ceiling, a musty smell or a water meter that keeps ticking with every tap off are all warning signs. Whether your pipes are copper or plastic, a weeping joint can go unnoticed for months. So we trace leaks carefully, with as little disruption as possible.
Unvented Hot Water Cylinders
If your home has an unvented cylinder, keep an eye on the small pipe outside or in the airing cupboard. When water drips from it, the cylinder may be over pressure, so don’t ignore it. These cylinders also need a yearly service by our qualified gas engineers.
Still Under Warranty?
If your home is less than two years old, the builder is usually responsible for fixing defects. Check your paperwork, or see NHBC’s guidance for homeowners if that’s your warranty provider. If the builder can’t come out quickly, we can help.

Everyday Plumbing Across Filton
Filton sits just over the Bristol boundary in South Gloucestershire, around Gloucester Road North, Filton Abbey Wood station and the Brabazon development. Whatever kind of home you have, our plumbers are here for the everyday jobs too.
Taps, Toilets and Showers
Dripping taps, running toilets, leaking sink wastes and showers that have lost their pressure. No job is too small, and you’ll get the price before we start.
Noisy, Banging Pipes
If your pipes bang when you turn a tap off, it’s usually loose pipework or a pressure surge known as water hammer. We’ll secure the pipes or fit a small arrestor to stop it.
Who to Call for Water and Drains
Filton’s water comes from Bristol Water, so if the whole street has lost its supply, check with them first. Shared sewers belong to Wessex Water. Anything inside your boundary, we can sort.
Nearby Areas
Our plumbers also cover Horfield, Patchway, Bradley Stoke and Stoke Gifford.

Plumber Filton FAQs
Filton homes throw up a wide range of plumbing questions, so we’ve answered the ones that come up most often below.
Is Filton Part of Bristol? Do You Cover It?
Filton is in South Gloucestershire, just north of the Bristol boundary. However, we cover all of it, including Brabazon and the roads around Aerospace Bristol and Filton Abbey Wood.
Water Is Dripping From a Pipe Outside. Is That Serious?
It’s often the overflow from a toilet cistern or the discharge pipe from a hot water cylinder. Either one means something isn’t working properly, so get in touch and we’ll check it.
My Home Is Under Two Years Old. Should I Call You or the Builder?
Check with the builder first, because the repair may be covered. If it’s an emergency and they can’t attend, turn off the water and call us. We’ll also give you a written report for your warranty claim.
Why Has My Water Pressure Dropped?
It could be a partly closed stopcock, a hidden leak or a problem in the street. First, ask your neighbours. If it’s only your home, we’ll then find the cause.
My Boiler Has Stopped Too. Can You Help?
Yes. Our Gas Safe engineers handle emergency boiler repairs as well as plumbing, so one call covers both.
