General Plumbing Services

The price that a plumber charges per hour will depend on many factors, including your location, plumbers experience level, if it’s after hours and if you require specialised services etc. Across London you can expect to pay approximately £50 for a call out fee during regular work hours. 

In terms of hourly rates, most South West London plumbers charge anywhere between £70-£100 per hour, which will depend on the factors listed above and if you require specialsed services such as pipe lining or drain surveys.

We recommend always calling your local London plumber to enquire about their hourly rate before booking them for a job to avoid any surprises.

Plumbers will often bill by the hour or day instead of charging you a fixed fee. Most plumbers in South West London chage anywhere from £400 and £500 per day but this will depend on the complexity of the work and if your situation requires specialised services.. 

If you have a plumbing emergency, ask your chosen plumber how much their call out fee is and their hourly rate. If you need repairs done, speak to the plumber and ask them for a quote for repairs before they begin their work. You will then have idea of how long it will take to fix and perhaps you can get a discount by paying a daily rate.

When you require the assistance of a plumber urgently and after-hours, chances are they will charge anywhere from £100 to £120 per hour and a call-out fee. This is standard practice for a London plumber who is called out after hours to attend to your plumbing emergency.

To avoid any surprises if you need to call a plumber in an emergency, make sure to inquire about their fees and the hourly rate that they may charge. If you want to ensure you’re being charged a fair rate, it’s beneficial to shop around and compare prices. 

Additionally, many plumbers will charge a minimum one-hour fee for any emergency call out work, so be sure to confirm that before hiring someone.

Plumbers often charge a call out fee to cover their travel costs, parking and congestion charges. This fee does not include materials or equipment they may need in order to complete the task and you will need to pay extra if your situation requires specialsed plumbing services.

By charging a call out fee, plumbers ensure that they can remain competitive while still providing quality service at an affordable rate. In some cases, the call out fee may be waived if the job requires a minimum amount of time to complete or if you are a repeat customer. 

Ultimately, it’s crucial to confirm the call out fee, hourly rates and the cost of specialsed services with any potential plumber before booking their services.
