# Dumfries Emergency Plumber Line

A 24/7 call-connection line that puts callers through to a local, independent plumbing professional covering Dumfries and the surrounding towns, villages and rural properties (Locharbriggs, Heathhall, Cargenbridge, New Abbey, Torthorwald, Lochmaben, Glencaple, Dunscore and Collin). It is not a plumbing company itself — it connects callers with a local plumbing professional for burst pipes, boiler faults, leaks and blocked drains.

Phone: 020 4577 2888

## Honesty note

This line does not set prices. Plumbing costs vary by job, plumber, parts and time of day, and evenings and weekends usually cost more — callers should always ask the plumber for a price, or a call-out fee plus hourly rate, before any work starts.
