Expert Plumbing Services in Dublin: K67 Plumbing & Heating

If you’re a homeowner in Dublin, you know that your home’s plumbing is something you only really think about when it goes wrong. It might be the ominous sound of a dripping tap at 2 a.m., the sudden panic of a blocked toilet just as guests arrive, or the sinking feeling of stepping into a freezing cold shower on a January morning. Whether you need a small leak fixed or a complete bathroom renovation, finding a reliable Plumbing Services Dublin provider you can trust is key.

At K67 Plumbing & Heating, we’re not just another name in a long list of tradespeople. We’re your neighbours. We’re a team of fully qualified professionals who understand the specific quirks of Dublin’s homes—from the charming Georgian buildings with their ancient pipework to modern estates in areas like Swords, Malahide, and Phibsborough. We pride ourselves on offering a service that combines decades of hands-on experience with transparent, friendly communication. No hidden fees, no jargon, just honest work done right the first time.

Why K67 Plumbing & Heating is the Right Choice for Your Home

Before we get into the nuts and bolts of the specific services we offer, let’s talk about what makes a service provider worth inviting into your home. You’re not just paying for a pipe to be fixed; you’re paying for peace of mind, for safety, and for a solution that lasts. Here’s why so many Dubliners have made us their first call.

We’re Local, Experienced, and Fully Accredited

There’s a big difference between a handyman with a van and a professional plumber. Our team brings years of on-the-ground experience to every job, much like the established experts you see referenced across Dublin’s trusted trades networks. We are fully insured, and our gas engineers are Registered Gas Installers (RGI), meaning all work on your boiler or gas appliances complies with the latest safety standards and IS:813 regulations. When you choose K67, you’re choosing verified expertise.

We Believe in Transparent Communication

Have you ever called a plumber and felt left in the dark about costs or what the actual problem is? We hate that feeling. From the moment you call us, we explain things clearly. We’ll tell you what’s wrong, show you the options (from a temporary fix to a permanent solution), and provide a clear, upfront price. There are no surprise call-out fees for drainage issues, and you’ll never be charged for travel or parking. Our goal is to make a stressful situation as stress-free as possible.

A Family-Run Ethos

We’re a small, family-run business, which means every customer matters to us. We’re not just trying to get the job done and move on to the next; we’re building relationships. We want you to be the person who recommends us to your friends in Cabra or your family in Portmarnock. This personal approach means we treat your home with the same respect we would our own, always leaving the workspace clean and tidy.

Our Comprehensive Plumbing Services in Dublin

We cover the full spectrum of plumbing needs. Whether it’s an emergency in the middle of the night or a planned renovation project, K67 Plumbing & Heating has the skills and equipment to handle it.

Emergency Plumbing: We’re Here When You Need Us Most

Plumbing emergencies have a nasty habit of happening at the worst possible times—late at night, during a bank holiday weekend, or right before you’re due to leave for work. A burst pipe can flood your home in minutes, and a boiler breakdown in winter isn’t just an inconvenience; it can be a health risk, especially if you have young children or elderly relatives at home.

That’s the reason we offers a 24/7 emergency plumbing service in Dublin. When you call us, you won’t get an answering machine or a call centre; you’ll get a real person who can dispatch a local plumber to your location fast.

Common emergencies we handle instantly:

Burst Pipes: If a pipe bursts, time is of the essence. The first step is to locate your main stop valve and turn off the water supply. If you don’t know where it is, call us immediately, and we can guide you while we’re on our way. We’ll arrive ready to stop the flow, repair the damage, and start the drying-out process.
No Hot Water / Boiler Breakdown: Waking up to no hot water or a heating system that won’t fire up can ruin your day. Before you panic, check the thermostat and your attic tank to ensure there’s water, but if everything seems normal, give us a call. We’ll diagnose the issue—whether it’s a faulty immersion, a broken boiler part, or an airlock—and get your heat back on.
Overflowing Toilets & Blocked Drains: A blocked toilet is unhygienic and stressful. We provide rapid-response drain unblocking in Dublin to clear the blockage, whether it’s deep in the drain or a simple toilet blockage. We use modern equipment to get things flowing again without causing damage to your porcelain or pipes.

General Plumbing Repairs and Maintenance

Not every issue is an emergency, but even small problems shouldn’t be ignored. A dripping tap can waste litres of water and add to your bills, while a constantly running toilet can be surprisingly costly. Our repair services are designed to be efficient and long-lasting.

Leaky Tap Repairs: That persistent drip is more than just annoying. We can repair or replace tap cartridges and valves, often fixing the problem in under an hour.
Toilet Repairs and Replacements: From a faulty flush mechanism (like a broken siphon) to a toilet that’s rocking on an old seal, we can fix it. If your toilet is old, cracked, or inefficient, we can also help you choose and install a new, water-saving model.
Shower Repairs and Valve Replacement: Struggling with inconsistent water temperature or low pressure from your shower? It might be a faulty shower valve or a problem with your mixer. We repair all types, including electric showers and thermostatic mixer valves, restoring your comfortable shower experience.
Sink and Basin Repairs: Whether it’s a blocked sink, a broken waste pipe, or a need for a new basin, we’ve got you covered.
Immersion Heater and Hot Water Cylinder Faults: If your water is scalding hot or not hot enough, or if you’ve spotted a leak from your hot press, it’s time to call an expert. We troubleshoot and replace immersion elements, thermostats, and even entire hot water cylinders.

Boiler Services, Repairs, and Installation

Your boiler is the heart of your home’s comfort. Keeping it maintained is crucial for safety, efficiency, and reliability. As a trusted heating contractor, we offer a full range of services.

Boiler Servicing: An annual boiler service isn’t just a good idea; if you have a gas boiler, it’s often a requirement for your manufacturer’s warranty. During a service, we’ll check all key components, ensure it’s burning fuel efficiently, clean essential parts, and test for safety. It’s the best way to prevent a mid-winter breakdown.
Boiler Repair: If your boiler has locked out, is making banging noises, or isn’t heating your radiators properly, we can diagnose and fix the problem. Common issues include faulty pumps, broken diverter valves, and failed thermocouples. We work with all major brands and types, including gas and oil boilers.
Boiler Replacement: If your boiler is old, inefficient, and beyond economical repair, we can guide you through the process of choosing a new one. Modern condensing boilers are much more efficient, which can save you a significant amount on your energy bills. We handle the entire installation, from removing the old unit to commissioning the new one and providing your BER paperwork and RGI certification.

Bathroom Installations and Renovations

Are you dreaming of a new bathroom? Whether you want to update a tired ensuite or completely remodel your family bathroom, K67 Plumbing & Heating can bring your vision to life. We handle the complex plumbing and heating side of the renovation, working alongside your chosen tilers and decorators—or we can recommend trusted partners from our network to manage the whole project for you.

Our bathroom installation service includes:

Fitting new baths, showers, toilets, and basins.
Installing new taps and shower valves.
Re-routing pipework for new layouts.
Fitting underfloor heating systems for that touch of luxury.
Installing new radiators or towel warmers.
Upgrading old gravity-fed systems to high-pressure mains systems for a powerful rainfall shower experience.

We understand that a bathroom renovation can be disruptive, so we work efficiently and cleanly to get your new space finished and functional as quickly as possible.

Practical Advice: How to Handle Common Plumbing Issues

As part of our commitment to providing real value, we want to empower you with a little knowledge. Here are some simple tips for handling common situations before we arrive.

What to Do in a Plumbing Emergency

Burst Pipe:

Turn off the water: Locate your main stopcock (usually under the kitchen sink or where the main water line enters the house) and turn it clockwise to shut off the supply.
Drain the system: Turn on all your cold taps to drain the water left in the pipes. This minimises flooding.
Turn off the heating: If you have a central heating system, turn it off immediately to avoid damaging the boiler or system.
Call K67 Plumbing & Heating immediately.

Blocked Drain or Toilet:

Stop flushing: If it’s a toilet, avoid flushing again, as it will overflow.
Try a plunger: Sometimes a simple blockage can be cleared with a bit of elbow grease. Ensure there’s enough water in the bowl to cover the plunger cup to create a seal.
Don’t use chemical drain cleaners: These harsh chemicals can damage old pipes and are bad for the environment. They rarely fix the root cause of the problem. Call us instead.
Check outside: If your sink won’t drain, check the outside gully to see if it’s blocked with debris. Clearing that might solve the problem instantly.

Tips for Preventing Future Problems

Be mindful of what you flush: The only things that should go down your toilet are the three P’s: Pee, Poo, and (toilet) Paper. “Flushable” wipes are a myth—they do not break down like toilet paper and are the number one cause of sewer blockages in Dublin.
Use sink strainers: Catch hair, food particles, and other debris before they go down your sink and shower drains. This is a simple, cheap way to prevent clogs.
Know where your stopcock is: Take five minutes right now to find your main water shut-off valve. In an emergency, knowing its location can save your home from extensive water damage.
Listen to your home: Gurgling drains, banging pipes (also known as “water hammer”), and dripping sounds are your home’s way of telling you something is wrong. Addressing small issues early prevents big, expensive repairs later.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do you charge a call-out fee?

We understand that this is a major concern for many homeowners. At K67 Plumbing & Heating, we believe in transparency. We do not charge a hidden fee just for showing up at your door. We provide a clear, fixed price or an hourly rate before any work commences. You only pay for the time and materials required to fix your problem, with no nasty surprises.

2. How quickly can you get here in an emergency?

For genuine emergencies, such as a burst pipe or a complete heating failure in winter, we aim to be with you within one hour of your call, particularly in North Dublin and the surrounding areas. Our average response time is often much quicker—between 20 and 40 minutes—because we know that when water is involved, every minute counts.

3. Are your plumbers qualified to work on gas boilers?

Absolutely. Safety is our top priority. All gas work is strictly carried out by engineers who are on the Register of Gas Installers of Ireland (RGI). This is a legal requirement, and it guarantees that any work on your gas boiler, cooker, or fire is done safely and in full compliance with Irish standards.

4. What should I do if I have a burst pipe?

First, don’t panic. Find your main stopcock (water shut-off valve) and turn it clockwise to stop the water flow. Then, open all your cold taps to drain the system and relieve pressure. If the leak is near any electrical sockets or appliances, turn off the mains power. Finally, call us immediately. If you can’t find the stopcock, call us, and we can guide you over the phone while we dispatch an engineer.

5. Can you help with a complete bathroom renovation?

Yes, we specialise in full bathroom installations and renovations. We can manage every aspect of the project, from the initial design and selection of tiles and fixtures to plumbing, tiling, plastering, and electrical work. We act as your main contractor, taking the stress out of coordinating multiple different trades. Check out our reviews—our customers love the seamless, high-quality finish we provide.
