What is classed as a plumbing emergency?+
A plumbing emergency is a fault that threatens safety, causes ongoing property damage or leaves essential facilities unusable. Examples include a burst pipe, uncontrolled leak, sewage backing up indoors or an overflowing toilet that cannot be isolated. Heating failure can also be urgent in cold weather, particularly for vulnerable occupants. Shut off the affected water supply if safe, stop using backed-up fixtures and keep away from wet electrics.
What is the 135 rule for plumbing?+
There is no single, universally recognised “135 rule” in UK plumbing. The phrase might refer to a particular fitting angle, a training shortcut or advice specific to an installation, so its meaning depends on where you saw it. Share the original wording or a description of the job before relying on it; pipe sizing, gradients and fitting arrangements need to suit the actual system.
Should I call an emergency plumber?+
Call an emergency plumber if water is escaping uncontrollably, sewage is backing up, or a fault puts people or your property at immediate risk.
