We explain callout fees clearly, confirm hourly rates in advance, and talk you through the options before starting work. There are no hidden charges and no surprise additions once the job is underway.
Emergency Callout Fees Explained
Emergency plumbing callouts are charged based on the time and day of attendance. This covers the urgency of the visit and prioritised response.

Once on site, labour is charged at our standard emergency rate, and any materials required are discussed before fitting wherever possible.
What Happens After The Callout
Our first priority is to make the situation safe and stop further damage. In many cases, the issue can be fully resolved during the emergency visit.
If further work is required, we explain the next steps clearly and provide honest advice on whether follow-up repairs should be booked as planned work to reduce costs. This approach gives you control over decisions, even in urgent situations.

Agreed to rectify it but 6 months later still not complete and no communication leaving me to get the works rectified by others.
Excellent service all round, kept me informed of arrival time, and carried out the work efficiently. I would definitely use them again.
Good workmanship and competitively priced.
Will use again
Highly recommend!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A few days after the work was complete, a pipe in the bathroom burst as it was so old… I called Steve and he was with me within 4 hours. Thankfully, Steve had previously explained how they had re plumbed upstairs and I was able to isolate the bathroom to prevent any significant damage.
Overall, I’m really impressed, delighted with the workmanship and will definitely use AHPS again for future work - of which there will be plenty. All of this for a reasonable rate too!
He attended my boiler issue on Friday, diagnosed the fault, obtained the parts and came back first thing Tuesday to fix. All was working within two hours.
Steve always has great communication, is friendly, explains everything well and is very reasonably priced.
I would not hesitate to recommend Steve and his company again and am now using him to service my boiler.
Thank you Steve.
Really pleased with the service and how pleasant, personable and polite Kiani was.
Highly recommend this company.
The whole team were professional, friendly and easy to talk to throughout the job. The radiators look fantastic and the quality of their work is clear to see. I already have them booked for boiler servicing and a few more jobs later this year. Highly recommend Archway Heating and Plumbing for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy company.
Steve arrived on time and was friendly and approachable. He quickly assessed the issue with my radiator and explained the necessary repairs in a clear and concise manner. His expertise was evident, and I felt reassured that my radiator was in good hands.
The repair process was efficient, and Steve worked diligently to ensure everything was fixed properly. He took great care to minimize any disruption and left the area clean and tidy once he was done. I appreciated his attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship.
What really stood out to me was Steve's dedication to customer satisfaction. He took the time to answer all my questions and provided helpful tips for maintaining my radiator in the future. It's clear that he genuinely cares about his clients and their needs.
I highly recommend Archway Heating and Plumbing Services for any plumbing or radiator repairs. Their professionalism, reliability, and exceptional service make them my go-to choice for all my plumbing needs. I will certainly be calling them again in the future!
