We do drain unclogging in the Lisbon area. Real plumber, real equipment: snake, auger, hydro-jet, camera. Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp or call. We confirm the arrival time on WhatsApp before we set off.
We don't just flush it through: we find out why it blocked and explain how to stop it happening again.
ENGLISH-SPEAKING · QUOTE BEFORE ANY WORK
WhatsApp engagement was excellent. They diagnosed the problem remotely with my water heater but given they weren’t the best fit with the device manufacturer, they recommended a different path with the manufacturer. They were awesome to work with.
Atendimento impecável. Desde a 1a ligação até a execução do serviço - em pleno Domingo. Continuem com essa postura que terão muito sucesso ! (Translated by Google) Impeccable service. From the first call to the completion of the service – on a Sunday no less! Keep up the good work and you'll have great success!
Amazing service from start to finish. You can tell that they truly care about making sure they fix things well, highly recommend!
We had two jobs in one visit: a water heater install and a fixed-panel shower glass, and we couldn’t be happier! Fast, efficient, friendly service. Paul was knowledgeable about the glass install, making sure everything was level and well secured. Will definitely be recommending to others!!
Everything you expect: Good work and most of all, honest around the "orçamento".
Very professional, courteous and lknowledagble. They help.me solve a problem with my water heater over the phone. I will recommend them highly!
We are doing a minor kitchen remodel that involves replacing a gas cooktop with induction. The day after the gas cooktop was removed, we discovered our tankless water heater was not working. I contacted Paul at urgent plumber.pt via WhatsApp and he was so helpful. He called me gave suggestions to try to make it work before coming out. When that didn’t work, he asked me to send a video so he could listen to the water heater to determine if there was a problem with the igniter. He even contacted a representative from the water heater manufacturer. Ultimately I figured out the problem without Paul needing to come out. He was so helpful by phone and WhatsApp, that I’m keeping his contact information for future needs and to give to our English-speaking friends. He kept giving me suggestions to try to save us money before coming out. Truely appreciated.
I had an urgent water leak in my garden and UrgentPlumber was an absolute lifesaver. Their response was incredibly fast, and Paul arrived exactly when he said he would. What I appreciated most was the total clarity throughout the entire process; Paul explained exactly where the issue was, how he was going to fix it, and kept me informed every step of the way. I couldn't be happier with the service and highly recommend them to anyone needing a quick, expert solution in Lisbon! Also, this must be the world first AI- powered plumber, using it from diagnostic to report and invoicing, very impressive! 😉
***I do not usually leave reviews, but Paul and Urgent Plumber really deserve one!!*** I wish Paul had been my first call, not my fourth! The problem: We had a toilet issue that kept coming back despite 3 visits and different attempts to fix it from other plumbers. Eventually, both the toilet and shower started backing up with sewer water. The real fix: Paul brought the right technology to diagnose the problem. Down went a video camera into the drains, and he found the blockage that had been missed before. He got it all cleared out and removed the waste material. The difference: It finally felt like someone had found the real cause of the problem instead of just treating the symptoms. True professional: Paul responded quickly, got us scheduled as soon as possible, arrived on time, and was professional and easy to work with. Everything has been working great since. I also really appreciated being able to communicate clearly in English. Excellent service and highly recommended!
Great service! Fast and professional
Very good service, excellent follow‑up on the repairs. I highly recommend.
I bought a new washing machine from El Corte Ingles and paid for a "professional installation". Days after the machine was installed my downstairs neighbor reported water coming into her apartment. Living full time in NYC and part time in Lisbon, I freaked out. No one was even home using the washing machine. I got Paul@urgent plumbers' contact info from a friendly whatsapp group and contacted him on the fly. Within an hour he was inside my apartment in Baixa and diagnosed the problem. The "professional installers" from ECI did not tighten the connection and water was leaking. He screwed it up tight and said the problem was fixed. I offered to pay Paul for his time and he flatly refused saying it just wasn't necessary. What a professional. So that's all I have to say.
Paul replied to my message as soon as I sent it. This type of responsiveness is rare and I appreciated that! My problem (a boiler issue) was solved in 5 minutes, over the phone, with great guidance! 🙌 Amazing service, friendly person, highly recommended! Thank you, Paul!

Unblocked and explained.
We clear it, find the cause with a camera if needed and explain how to stop it coming back. Written quote in English before any work. Every job gets a VAT invoice with your NIF.
Simple and clear. We'll guide you step by step.
SPEAK TO A PLUMBER NOWThe water rises when you flush, or drains very slowly. Most of the time it's wet wipes, too much paper or something that fell in. If the toilet blocks often, or water also comes up in the shower, the problem may be further down, in the waste pipe or the building's shared stack. Don't flush again while you wait: it only makes the water rise.
Grease, food scraps and coffee grounds narrow the pipe until the water stops draining. We clear the trap and the pipe down to the stack. If the dishwasher or washing machine drain into the same pipe, we check those too.
Hair and soap form a plug in the drain and the trap. When the water takes ages to go down, or comes back up when someone else uses the bathroom, we clear the drain, the trap and the connection to the waste pipe.
If several neighbours have the same problem, or water shows up in the flat below, the blockage is in the stack (prumada), the shared vertical pipe of the building. It's a common part of the building, so the condominium administration usually handles it. We can diagnose and clear it and explain what we found to whoever manages the building, in Portuguese.
A sewer smell, water pooling in the patio or several drains blocked at once point to the main sewer pipe or the inspection chamber (caixa de visita). Roots, sand and grease are the usual causes. We clear it and, if a repair is needed, send the quote on WhatsApp before any work starts.

Every drain in your home. Blocked toilets, blocked kitchen sinks, slow showers and baths, smelly drains, backed-up sewers, blocked outside gullies and downpipes, washing-machine and dishwasher drainage. We bring the right equipment: a power snake for simple blockages, a hydro-jet for grease and roots, a drain camera to find sewer problems.
We bring the equipment to clear a blockage on the spot: power snakes, augers, hydro-jets. If the issue is deeper (a broken pipe, roots, a collapsed sewer), we use a drain camera to find where it is and quote you the repair before any extra work.
Message us on WhatsApp at +351 21 700 9237 or call +351 21 700 9773 with a short description or photo of the drain and your address in the Lisbon area. We agree the visit time with you.
After diagnosing the problem, our plumber sends a written quote on WhatsApp in English. No work starts until you approve. Deeper sewer problems need a camera inspection first, also quoted in writing.
