Looking for a plumber in Horsham? We're based just up the road in Crawley and typically on site within 25-35 minutes for RH12 and RH13 addresses. Horsham's a town of contrasts — handsome period homes around the town centre and the Causeway, and the newer estates that have grown up around Broadbridge Heath — and we've worked on the pipework in both, along with the villages scattered around the edge of town. Burst pipes, dripping taps, blocked sinks, a bathroom that's ready for a refit, a kitchen appliance that needs plumbing in properly: we cover it all, seven days a week, evenings included, and we're happy to talk a job through over the phone before you commit to anything. Fully insured, VAT registered, and straightforward about price before anything starts.
Whatever the job, we bring the same standard to it — whether that's a leak in a Victorian terrace off the Causeway or a new-build kitchen out at Broadbridge Heath. We carry a well-stocked van with enough fittings to handle most jobs in a single visit, rather than one visit to diagnose and a second to fix. Here's what we cover across Horsham and the surrounding RH12/RH13 postcodes.
Burst pipes, no hot water, a blocked toilet that won't wait — our emergency plumber service covers Horsham seven days a week. Call and we'll talk you through what to do while we're on the way, whether that's finding the stopcock or just keeping the water contained.
Horsham's older streets still have plenty of original pipework that can let go without warning, especially after a cold snap. Our burst pipe repair service stops the water fast and repairs it properly, the same visit in most cases, and we'll flag anything else nearby that looks like it's on borrowed time.
From a full refit in a period Horsham semi to a new en-suite on a Broadbridge Heath estate, our bathroom installation service handles the plumbing, the fittings and the finish — including the trickier jobs like fitting a modern shower into an awkwardly-shaped older room.
Cold spots, a radiator that needs replacing, a system that could do with a power flush — Horsham's hard water doesn't do heating systems any favours over the years. See our radiator installation & heating repairs service for a proper diagnosis rather than a guess at what's wrong.
Sinks, taps, dishwashers, washing machines and full kitchen renovations — our kitchen plumbing service covers Horsham homes old and new, and we're just as happy fitting a single appliance as first-fixing an entire new kitchen.
Bathroom refits, kitchen renovations and general building work that needs doing properly — see our building work service for the wider project, from small repairs to multi-room refurbishments.
Horsham's housing stock splits fairly cleanly into two eras, and each brings its own plumbing quirks.
The streets around the Causeway, Denne Road and the older parts of town are full of Georgian and Victorian properties, plus solid inter-war semis further out. These homes were often plumbed in lead or galvanised steel long before copper became standard, and while most of that's been replaced over the decades, we still find sections of original pipework tucked behind panelling or under floorboards — usually the first thing to fail when pressure or temperature changes. Bathrooms in these homes are often the original size, which makes fitting modern suites and shower enclosures a proper measuring job before anything gets ordered. We work carefully around period features — skirting, coving, original floorboards — rather than cutting through them because it's quicker. It's slower work than a straightforward new-build job, and we plan for that rather than rushing it.
West of the town, Broadbridge Heath and the newer developments around it are a different job entirely — modern plastic pipework, pressurised systems, and layouts designed for easy access rather than worked around. The plumbing itself is usually straightforward, but new estates bring their own snagging-type issues: a shower tray that's not quite level, a trap that was never fully seated, an outside tap fitted without proper frost protection before its first winter. We check the small things that get missed in a rush to hand a house over, not just the job we were called for. Gardens on these estates are usually landscaped from scratch too, so outside taps and garden pipework are a regular job in the first year or two.
Like most of West Sussex, Horsham sits in a hard water area, and it shows — limescale build-up in kettles and showerheads is one thing, but it also works away at immersion heaters, radiators and the inside of older pipework over the years, making systems less efficient and more prone to blockages. Whether it's a period home in town or a new-build out at Broadbridge Heath, we factor hard water into how we diagnose recurring issues rather than just treating the symptom each time. A radiator that won't heat evenly or a shower that's lost its pressure is as likely to be scale as anything else.

Horsham is about 12 miles from our base in Crawley, and we typically reach RH12 and RH13 addresses within 25-35 minutes during the day, a little longer at night or in heavy traffic on the A264. Call ahead and we'll give you a realistic time, not a guess.
No. You get a clear price for the job itself, agreed before we start, whether you're in Crawley or Horsham. There's no separate charge added on top for the drive over.
It depends entirely on the job — a dripping tap and a full bathroom refit are worlds apart — so we won't quote a figure that doesn't reflect your actual work. You get a clear price agreed before anything starts, then pay for the time on the job plus materials, with a VAT receipt.
Plumbing, drainage and building work are our trade. For gas appliances, gas pipework or boilers we'll point you to a Gas Safe registered engineer (gassaferegister.co.uk) — the right trade on every part of the job. If you ever smell gas, call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999.
