Burst pipes, severe water leaks, blocked drains, overflowing toilets: call us now and we'll respond without delay.

AnglianPHE are Cambridge's trusted emergency plumbing specialists, providing same-day and out-of-hours emergency plumbing callouts to residential and commercial properties across the city and surrounding villages.
From burst pipe emergencies in the middle of the night to urgent same-day drain clearances, AnglianPHE cover the full spectrum of residential and commercial plumbing emergencies across Cambridge.
A burst water pipe is one of the most damaging plumbing events a property can experience. Pressurised water discharges at enormous volume in a very short time. AnglianPHE respond immediately to burst pipe emergencies across Cambridge — isolating the supply, assessing the damage and carrying out emergency pipe repairs to prevent further water ingress and structural harm.
Get emergency helpWhether it's a severe visible leak from a failed joint, an unexpected spike in your water meter, or damp appearing where it shouldn't, emergency water leaks require prompt professional investigation. Our engineers carry out on-site diagnostics to locate the source quickly and carry out effective emergency leak repairs — protecting your property from escalating water damage.
Report a leakA severely blocked drain that is causing water to back up, overflow or flood is a plumbing emergency requiring urgent attention. AnglianPHE provide emergency drain unblocking services across Cambridge — clearing blockages in toilets, sinks, baths and underground drainage systems. For emergency drain clearance in Cambridge, call 07825 348536.
Unblock drainage nowAn overflowing or severely blocked toilet is both a sanitation hazard and a plumbing emergency — particularly in properties with limited alternative facilities. We respond to emergency toilet repair calls across Cambridge, clearing blockages, repairing cistern failures and resolving overflow situations that pose an immediate risk to the property.
Arrange urgent repairA leaking boiler or central heating pipe can release significant volumes of water rapidly and may also pose a safety risk if electrical components are nearby. When you have an emergency boiler leak, call AnglianPHE immediately. We can attend, isolate the system and advise on the safest course of action — though complex boiler repairs will be referred to a Gas Safe registered specialist if required.
Get immediate assistancePlumbing emergencies happen at the worst possible times — evenings, weekends, bank holidays. AnglianPHE offer genuine out-of-hours emergency plumbing support across Cambridge. Whether your crisis hits at 11pm on a Sunday or early on a bank holiday morning, our emergency line is active. Call 07825 348536 and we'll respond without delay.
Call any hourA burst water pipe is frightening — the volume of water that can escape from even a 15mm supply pipe within minutes is enough to cause severe structural damage and ruin flooring, ceilings and plasterwork. Acting quickly and calmly in the first few minutes makes a significant difference to the eventual cost of repairs.
The single most important step you can take immediately is to turn off your mains water supply. Your internal stopcock is most commonly located under the kitchen sink, where the supply pipe enters the property, or in a downstairs cupboard. Turn it clockwise to close. This stops the flow of water and gives you crucial time while you wait for our engineers to arrive.
Once the supply is isolated, call AnglianPHE on 07825 348536. Our emergency plumbing team will respond to burst pipe callouts across Cambridge, Chesterton, Trumpington, Histon, Waterbeach and surrounding areas as a priority.
If a burst pipe is releasing water near electrical sockets, fuse boards, or appliances, turn off your electricity at the consumer unit before doing anything else. Do not touch electrical components with wet hands. Our engineers will always assess electrical safety on arrival.
Call our emergency line immediately — we prioritise burst pipe callouts across Cambridge and Cambridgeshire.
