How do I book a plumber in Kolkata?
Open the Zaruri Hai app, tap Plumber, describe the issue, and pick a slot. A verified plumber arrives, inspects the problem, and shares a clear price before any work starts. Booking takes under two minutes.
Do you offer emergency and 24×7 plumbers?
Yes. A burst pipe or overflowing drain can't wait — water damage spreads fast. Zaruri Hai dispatches emergency plumbers quickly, in most Kolkata areas within 1–2 hours, day or night.
How long does a plumbing job take?
Most repairs — a tap, leak, blockage or toilet fix — take 30 minutes to an hour. Bathroom fittings and water-tank work take longer, and full bathroom plumbing is scheduled after a site check. The plumber tells you the timeline upfront.
Plumbing emergency? Do this first.
Limit the damage before help arrives:
- Burst pipe or major leak → shut the main water valve immediately.
- Overflowing tank or toilet → turn off that line's supply and stop the inflow.
- Leak near electrical points → switch off the power to that area too.
Then book an emergency plumber on the app — we respond fast.
Common plumbing problems we fix — and what causes them
A quick read on what's going wrong:
- Dripping tap — a worn washer or cartridge, or a loose fitting. Small drip, big monthly water waste.
- Pipe leak — a corroded or cracked pipe, or a loose joint. Concealed leaks seep into walls and weaken them.
- Clogged drain — grease, hair, food waste or mineral build-up. Boiling water is a temporary fix, not a cure.
- Running toilet — a faulty flush valve or float, silently wasting hundreds of litres a day.
- Low water pressure — blockage, mineral deposits, or a pump or tank fault.
- Tank overflow — a failed ballcock or float valve letting water run non-stop.
- Foul drain smell — a blockage or a dry/blocked trap in the drainage line.
Signs you shouldn't ignore
Call a plumber before these get worse:
- damp patches or peeling paint on walls (hidden leak)
- water pooling under the sink or near the tank
- gurgling drains or slow-draining sinks
- a sudden drop in water pressure
- a spike in your water bill with no extra use
Early action saves money and structural damage.
Tap, faucet & mixer work
Repair or replace leaking taps, stiff handles, kitchen and bathroom faucets, and mixer units. A dripping tap is usually a worn washer or cartridge — a quick fix that stops daily water waste.
Pipe leak & concealed leak repair
Visible joint leaks, corroded pipes and hidden wall leaks. Concealed leaks are the dangerous ones — water tracks into walls, damages plaster and weakens the structure. We trace the exact spot, repair it, and patch up after.
How to check for a hidden water leak
A simple self-test before you call:
- Note and mark the water level in your overhead tank.
- Shut the main supply valve for 2–3 hours and don't use any water.
- Check the level again — if it has dropped, you have a pipeline leak.
Found a drop? Book a plumber quickly — hidden leaks only get costlier.
Drain & sewer unclogging
Blocked kitchen sinks, bathroom outlets, balcony drains and sewer lines — cleared properly, not just poked open. We remove the blockage at its source and check the flow so it stays clear.
Toilet, flush tank & jet spray
Repair or replace Western and Indian commodes, flush tanks, seat covers and health faucets (jet sprays), and fix running or leaking toilets. A running toilet alone can waste huge amounts of water — worth fixing fast.
Washbasin, sink & kitchen plumbing
Install or repair washbasins, kitchen sinks, waste pipes and connections, and fix leaks under the counter before they damage cabinets. RO and water-filter connections too.
Water tank, motor & pump work
Overhead and underground water tank installation, cleaning and overflow repair, plus motor and pump installation and repair. Weak water flow is often a pump, tank or blockage issue — we diagnose the real cause.
Bathroom fittings & new bathroom plumbing
Showers, health faucets, bathtubs, towel rails and full bathroom fittings, plus complete plumbing for a new or renovated bathroom (we also offer bathroom deep cleaning) — pipes, drainage and sanitary-ware fitting done to last.
Geyser & appliance water connections
Safe water connections for geysers (including geyser installation & repair), washing machines and other appliances — correct piping, secure joints and a leak check, so the fitting holds and your appliance runs trouble-free.
How much does a plumber cost in Kolkata?
You see the price upfront — a small visiting charge that's adjusted into the final bill when you proceed, then a clear estimate after inspection. Materials and sanitary parts are billed separately (or you can supply them).
| Job | Indicative range* |
|---|---|
| Visiting / inspection charge | ₹150–₹300 (adjusted on repair) |
| Tap / faucet repair or replace | ₹200–₹600 |
| Pipe leak repair | ₹500–₹3,000 (concealed: more) |
| Drain unclogging | ₹400–₹1,500 |
| Toilet / flush tank repair | ₹400–₹1,500 |
| Water tank cleaning | ₹600–₹2,000 |
| Plumber per hour | ₹300–₹800 (emergency ₹1,000+) |
*Material cost is extra. Your exact, live price shows in the app before you confirm.
Do I pay an advance to book?
No advance. You pay after the work is finished, and the visiting charge is adjusted into the bill once you go ahead with the repair.
Will I get a quote before work starts?
Yes. After inspecting the problem, the plumber gives you a clear estimate — labour plus any materials — and starts only once you approve it. No surprises beyond the visiting charge.
Are your plumbers verified and skilled?
Yes. Every plumber is background-verified and experienced across residential and commercial work. You get a professional who finds the real cause and fixes it cleanly — not someone who patches it and leaves a mess.
Is there a warranty on the work?
Yes. Workmanship comes with a 30-day service warranty — if the same issue recurs within the window, we revisit and fix it free. Any parts fitted carry their own warranty.
How to prevent plumbing problems
A few habits save you costly repairs:
- never flush sanitary pads, diapers or tissues
- keep food scraps, oil and starch out of the kitchen drain
- clean showerheads and taps to clear mineral deposits
- fix small drips and leaks early, before they worsen
- know where your main shut-off valve is
- run hot water through drains now and then to keep them clear
Do you handle homes, shops and offices?
All of them. We cover residential, shop and office plumbing — single repairs, new fit-outs, society and commercial contracts, and AMC-style upkeep for businesses that can't afford downtime (need a full home deep cleaning?).
Which areas of Kolkata do you cover?
We send plumbers across the city and suburbs — New Town, Rajarhat, Salt Lake (Bidhannagar), Lake Town, Baguiati, VIP Road, Dum Dum, Shyambazar, Park Street, Ballygunge, Gariahat, Kasba, Behala, Tollygunge, Jadavpur, Garia and the entire EM Bypass corridor.
