Emergency Plumbing in Old Town

Emergency Plumbing for Old Town’s tenement flats

From the Royal Mile and Canongate to the Grassmarket, Cowgate and Pleasance, Old Town homes are tall tenement flats, many in very old buildings with pipework added in stages over the decades.

In a tenement, a leak rarely stays in one flat — it's through the ceiling below within the hour. We'll help you find the stopcock (often not where you'd expect in older flats), stop the water and keep your downstairs neighbour in the loop.

In Georgian buildings, pipework often runs behind panelling, shutters and cornicing you really don’t want damaged. We isolate fast and open up as little as possible to reach the leak.

What’s included in Old Town

  • Burst and leaking pipes
  • Water coming through ceilings
  • Stopcock and isolation valve faults
  • Overflowing toilets and cisterns
  • Loss of water supply
  • Made safe first, then fixed properly

“I've used Dunedin Plumbing many times over the years, often in emergency situations. Kevin always responds immediately and provides a first-class service — and he's very reasonably priced. Definitely five stars.”

“We had a sudden burst pipe late at night and called Dunedin Plumbing and Heating. They responded incredibly fast — Kevin was at our door within the hour. He was polite, highly professional, and put on shoe covers before even coming in. He identified the issue right away, explained the fix clearly, and had everything sorted in no time. The pricing was completely fair with no hidden fees.”

That drip won't still be a drip by morning. A small leak left overnight is a soaked ceiling by breakfast — and a far bigger bill than calling now. We're on call 24 hours a day, every day, and a real person answers.
