Emergency plumber in Sheffield

When water is where it should not be, every minute counts. A burst pipe or an overflow can bring down a ceiling and ruin flooring in a matter of hours, so the most important thing is to get an experienced plumber to you quickly. That is exactly what Rapid Plumbing and Build is built around. We are a family-run Sheffield firm with more than 30 years on the tools, we answer the phone around the clock, and we get to most emergencies the same day you call.

Emergencies we deal with every week

Our reviews are full of leaks found and fixed fast, out-of-hours call-outs and boilers made safe. If your problem is not listed here, call us anyway, we cover every aspect of domestic and commercial plumbing and heating.

• Overflowing tanks, cisterns and failed valves
• Tap, stopcock and isolation valve failures

How an emergency call-out works

We keep it simple and we keep you informed the whole way through.

• You call, a real person answers. Day or night, you speak to the team, not a call centre.
• We attend, usually the same day. We reach 9 out of 10 jobs the day you ring, across Sheffield and the wider area.
• We make it safe, then fix it. First we stop the damage, then we diagnose and repair, explaining the problem as we go.
• We tidy up and advise. We leave the job clean and tell you honestly if anything else needs watching.

Why Sheffield calls Rapid first

Speed is only useful if the work is done properly. With Rapid you get both: a fast response and a Gas Safe registered team that has been looking after South Yorkshire homes and businesses since the 1990s. You deal with the same trusted people, the work is tidy, and we are upfront with you before we start.
