Urgent plumber in Singapore, at your door today

Plumbing help when you need it

Water problems rarely wait for a convenient time. A tap that sprays at 1.30am, a sink that will not drain before guests arrive, a pipe that has started to drip behind a cabinet: these are the moments people search for a plumber in Singapore. Handyman Service Hero is open 24 hours, and same-day visits are available across the island, so you can call or WhatsApp us at any hour and get a reply quickly.

We look after HDB flats, condominiums and commercial properties. Tell us what is happening and where you are, and we will send a quote and a time before we set off.

Emergency plumber or same-day plumber: which do you need?

Call us straight away if water is spraying, pouring or spreading, or if it is close to electrical points. Turn off the water at the isolation valve or the main first if you can. For problems that are slow or contained, such as a dripping tap, a slow drain or a running cistern, message us on WhatsApp with your area and we will confirm a same-day slot.

Leaking tap repair

A dripping tap wastes water and can stain the basin or sink. The cause is usually a worn part inside the tap, a loose connector or a tap that has aged. Leaks at the connector under the sink are just as common, and they can turn into a spray if left. We look at what is actually leaking and repair it wherever we can, and only suggest a replacement tap when repair will not last.

Blocked sink, basin and floor trap unblocking

Blocked drains build up slowly and then stop all at once. In Singapore homes the usual causes are grease and food waste in kitchen sinks, hair and soap in bathrooms, and wipes or other items that should not go down a toilet. If a drain is slow, gurgling or smells, it is worth dealing with early. We unblock sinks, basins and floor traps, and we can tell you what caused the choke so it is less likely to come back.

Try not to pour strong chemical cleaners down a drain and then call for help. They can be harsh on pipes and unpleasant for whoever has to work on the drain afterwards. Tell us what you have already tried.

Leaking and damaged pipe repair

Signs of a pipe leak include damp patches or stains on a wall or ceiling, paint that bubbles, a musty smell, the sound of water when nothing is running, and a water bill that rises for no clear reason. Some leaks are visible at a joint or a tap connector, and others are hidden inside a wall or above a ceiling. Send us photos or a short video on WhatsApp and we will tell you what we think the next step is.

Toilet problems

A cistern that keeps running, a flush that is weak, a seat or base that leaks: these are common and usually fixable without replacing the whole toilet. Tell us what you can see or hear and we will quote for the repair.

Water heater installation

We install water heaters, and we take care with the surrounding work. One customer told us we made good the false ceiling after installing their water heater, and kept the floor protected while we worked. If you are replacing an old unit or fitting a new one, message us with the type of heater and the location.

Leaks that come from somewhere else

Not every wet patch is a plumbing fault. Water can seep in through balcony floors, bathroom floors and external walls. If the source is not a pipe, our waterproofing and leak repair service can trace it and stop it at the source.

What affects the cost of a plumbing job in Singapore

Every plumbing job is different, so we quote each one. These are the things that usually make the difference:

• what is actually wrong, and whether a repair or a replacement part is needed
• how easy the fault is to reach
• whether the problem is one fault or several
• how urgent the visit is

Message us on WhatsApp with a description and photos, and we will give you a quote before we come. Our customers describe our pricing as transparent, and one told us the cost was stated at the beginning with no hidden charges.

What to do while you wait for the plumber

• Turn off the water at the isolation valve for that tap or toilet, or at the main if you cannot find it.
• Move rugs, furniture and electrical items away from the water.
• Mop up standing water so it does not spread.
• Take a few photos or a short video of the problem. It helps us quote and prepare.
• Keep the area clear so we can get to it as soon as we arrive.

Why customers choose us for plumbing

Our Google reviews come back to the same points. Customers describe quick replies, arriving on time, clear pricing and polite, helpful staff. One customer had a bathroom emergency at 1.30am and had a plumber arrive within 20 minutes as promised. Another had a clogged drain, was given the cost at the start and reported no hidden charges.
