24-hour plumbing emergencies

Some faults will not wait until Monday. Fontanero Orihuela covers plumbing emergencies 24 hours: water that will not stop, a burst pipe, or a home left without service at night or on a holiday.

What we fix

A burst pipe

A section gives way and water comes out under pressure. It has to be shut off and the point replaced.

Damp that appears at night

The ceiling or the skirting gets wet when nobody is using water: it is usually a continuous leak.

A blockage that floods

The toilet or the shower sends water back onto the floor and the bathroom cannot be used.

What this job gives you

Any hour

The small hours, a Sunday or a public holiday: if the water cannot be left running, call.

Stop the damage first

Shut off the mains, clear the water and leave the home safe before the lasting repair.

Travel to the Costa

Emergencies in Orihuela, the estates of Orihuela Costa and nearby towns.

One call is enough

Phone or WhatsApp. We do not ask for a signup or a contract before we leave.

How it goes

1

Close the valve if you can

The home shut-off, or the one in the meter cupboard. If you do not know where it is, we guide you by phone.

2

You call and we leave

We confirm the address, the floor and the symptom. Homes with water still running come first.

3

We get the water under control

We repair the point or leave a safe shut-off until the replacement can be finished.

Common questions

Is there a separate number for the 24-hour emergency line?

No. The same number works at any hour. Say that it is urgent and name the town.

Will you come if I am on a coastal estate?

Yes. Orihuela Costa, La Zenia, Cabo Roig, Campoamor, Playa Flamenca and Villamartín are inside the service area.

What should I do while the plumber is on the way?

Close the mains, move anything that could get wet, and do not use chemical unblockers if there is a risk of splash. Note whether the water is from the mains or from a heater that is still dripping.
