5 Best Plumbers in Hong Kong (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

A blocked drain or leaking pipe in Hong Kong often means navigating a language barrier as much as finding a plumber, and the plumbers here have logged more than 500 reviews between them at ratings from 4.3 to 4.9. Two names on this list are singled out repeatedly for clear English communication, which matters as much as the fix itself for the city's expat households.

Short answer: The most-reviewed plumber in Hong Kong is 燕寧渠務 Jelaine Drainage (4.9 stars across 172 reviews), followed by Papabo (4.9, 169 reviews). Costs vary by job, and several reviewers report free phone advice before any callout fee is charged.

How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Hong Kong plumbers. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from over a hundred reviews carries more weight than the same score from a handful. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does a plumber cost in Hong Kong? (2026)

Plumbing costs in Hong Kong vary by job complexity, access and whether the fix is urgent or scheduled. We could not source a trustworthy published rate card specific to Hong Kong plumbing, so use these factors to compare quotes directly with each business.

Serving all of Hong Kong

The plumbers above cover Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories, including Sham Shui Po, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kwai Chung, Central and Lantau Island. Searching for a plumber near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number so you can reach the closest option fast.

What to ask before you hire a plumber in Hong Kong

  • Can you communicate in English if that’s your preferred language?
  • Is the quote confirmed before work begins, with no changes after the job starts?
  • Do you offer 24-hour emergency service, and what’s the after-hours rate?
  • What’s included in the callout fee versus the repair itself?
  • Do you offer any warranty or guarantee on the repair?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these plumbers?

We started from every plumber in Hong Kong with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which of these plumbers speak English?

Jelaine Drainage and Papabo are both repeatedly praised by reviewers for clear English-language communication, which several customers specifically flag as helpful given Hong Kong’s mixed-language environment.

How much does a plumber cost in Hong Kong?

We could not source a trustworthy published rate card specific to Hong Kong plumbing. Ask for a confirmed quote before work begins, and clarify whether the callout fee is separate from the repair cost.

The bottom line

Jelaine Drainage is the safe default given its three decades of local experience and consistent praise for honesty and English communication. Whoever you call, confirm the price before the technician starts work.
