A broken water pipe, an overflowing toilet or water spreading below a sink needs a clear description of the problem. Tell us whether the water is still running, which room is affected and whether the installation serves only your home or a shared part of the building.
A leak can involve a supply pipe, a flexible hose, a valve, a joint or a waste connection. The visible water does not always identify the source. Diagnosis determines whether a seal, connection, pipe section or another component needs attention.
If you know where the affected fixture’s shut-off valve is and can reach it safely, isolate the water supply. Stop using an overflowing toilet or sink. Stay clear of electrical equipment in a wet area and do not dismantle a pressurised installation. Describe the situation during your call so the request can be prepared.
The SOS Express emergency service is available day and night. The response time depends on the address, access and current organisation of the intervention. Ask for the expected arrival time when you call.
Call the plumber · 0493 50 50 50A useful first description is the symptom rather than a technical diagnosis: water keeps running into the toilet, a tap drips after closing, a connection leaks or a fixture drains slowly. We then determine the cause and the appropriate repair.
A running toilet, weak flush, tank that does not refill and leak at floor level are different faults. The flush mechanism, inlet valve, seals and connections may need examination. Tell us whether your cistern is exposed or concealed and share the model reference when available.
Kitchen taps, basin taps, shower mixers and outside taps can develop faults in their seals, cartridges or connections. Repair or replacement depends on the component, its condition and the availability of compatible parts. A stiff mixer and a low-pressure outlet should not automatically be treated as the same defect.
Under-sink leaks may come from the water supply or the waste system. A damaged trap, loose connection and blocked drain need different work. Describe whether water appears constantly or only when the sink is used.
We handle requests involving shower connections, taps, water supply and drainage, together with bathroom installation work. A wet surface alone does not establish whether the source is a pipe, a fixture or another part of the room.
When the source is not visible, investigation and repair should be distinguished. Our water leak detection service explains thermal imaging, moisture measurements and other diagnostic methods. The specialist page is in French. The investigation determines how the leak can be accessed and repaired.
A blocked toilet, slow kitchen sink and recurring sewer backup do not necessarily have the same cause. Describe the affected fixtures and whether more than one drain is backing up. Tell the technician about any drain-cleaning product already used.
Water that does not leave the bowl is different from a cistern that keeps filling or a flush that fails. Avoid repeatedly flushing an overflowing toilet. The symptom helps distinguish a blockage from a fault in the flush mechanism.
The trap, local waste pipe and downstream network may need different checks. Recurring problems or several affected fixtures can justify a more detailed assessment. See our drain unblocking and pipe-cleaning service for the methods and service scope; this specialist page is in French.
SOS Express provides sewer repair and pipe cleaning. Clearing a blockage and repairing a damaged pipe are separate operations. Inspection, access and the condition of the installation determine the next step.
No hot water, water around a heater and a leaking connection should be described separately. Provide the make, model and a photograph of the identification label when possible, together with any displayed error code. Avoid opening or attempting repairs inside a gas or electrical appliance.
SOS Express handles water-heater plumbing repairs and replacement requests. The diagnosis distinguishes connections and valves from an appliance fault. Replacement depends on the model, installation constraints and the work agreed in the estimate.
SOS Express also handles heating repairs, boiler work and maintenance. See the heating repair page and boiler maintenance page, both in French. Tell us whether the problem affects heating, hot water or both.
For a suspected gas leak, follow the network operator’s emergency instructions before arranging plumbing work. Avoid flames and electrical devices, leave the building and call Sibelga from outside the area where gas is smelled. In Brussels, Sibelga lists 0800 19 400 or 112. Follow its official gas-smell safety instructions.
SOS Express handles plumbing installations, refurbishments and bathroom projects. Tell us which fixtures and connections you need, where they will be installed and how the pipework can be accessed.
Provide the appliance location and describe the available water inlet, waste connection and nearby access. The estimate should define the plumbing connections and any changes needed. The plumbing estimate covers the agreed water-supply and waste connections.
New sanitary fixtures and changes to bathroom or kitchen pipework require a defined scope. Explain what is being retained and replaced, whether access to the pipes is possible and what finishing work needs coordination.
SOS Express handles requests for replacement of lead supply pipework. The location and extent of the relevant pipework must be assessed before specifying replacement. For drinking-water and supply information, consult VIVAQUA’s drinking-water quality information.
Labour starts from €59 excluding VAT. This is a starting price, not a universal fixed-price repair or an hourly rate. The extent of work, call-out charge, parts, equipment and applicable VAT must be specified in the estimate.
