Plumbers in Haarlem since 1962, available day and night

Something leaking? We'll come out, even at night.

From a dripping tap in Schalkwijk to a burst pipe in a canal house on the Nieuwe Gracht. Our plumbers carry a van full of parts, so most jobs are done in a single visit.

Water on the floor?

Turn off the main stopcock first. It's usually in the meter cupboard or in the crawl space, right next to the water meter. Then let us know what's going on and we'll send someone as fast as we can.

Your plumbers for three generations

Grandad Jan started in 1962 with a handcart full of pipes and fittings, working from a shed behind his house in the Rozenprieel. He did everything himself: gutters, water heaters, blocked toilets. Customers sometimes paid in kind, the family says. A bottle of jenever counted too.

At half past eleven at night the pipe to the washing machine burst. By a quarter past twelve a plumber was at the door. Friendly, calm, and he even cleared up the wet towels.

Two companies wanted to sell us a heat pump straight away. Tom worked out it wouldn't pay off in our house yet. New boiler, done in a day, and an honest answer.

Toilet blocked on a Sunday morning with family visiting. Told the price up front, sorted in twenty minutes. Exactly what you want.

Frequently asked questions

All questions and answers
What does an emergency plumber cost?

During the day we charge €95 for the call-out and the first half hour. In the evening, at night and at weekends it’s €145. After that you pay per quarter hour, with parts at the price on the receipt. You always hear the amount before we start.

How quickly can you be here?

In Haarlem during the day, usually within the hour. At night it depends on where the plumber on call lives, so count on 30 to 60 minutes. In Hoofddorp or IJmuiden it can take a little longer.

What should I do if there’s a leak?

Turn off the main stopcock (meter cupboard or crawl space), switch off the power if water is getting near sockets and take photos for the insurance. That’s all you need to do.

Will my insurance pay for the repair?

Damage to the floor or ceiling often yes, the repair of the pipe itself usually not. We write a short report with photos that you can send straight to your insurer.
