Because someone's giving up their Saturday to help you, essentially. Out-of-hours work usually carries a premium rate compared to a weekday morning slot, that's fairly standard across the trade. If it's not a genuine emergency, booking for the next working day will usually save you money.
A few things to check
Check that whoever you use is properly qualified for the work and happy to put things in writing. A clear quote, a realistic timescale and tidy work on the day are all good signs. If a price sounds too cheap to be true, it usually is.

What to expect
Every job is a little different, so the right approach depends on your property and what you actually need. A good plumber will look at the specifics before quoting rather than giving a one size fits all answer. Ask questions early and you will have a much clearer idea of the work involved.
Why might a plumber charge more for a job out in Oakmere than one right in the centre of Northwich?
It's usually down to travel time and how rural the property is. A callout to Oakmere or further out towards Appleton Thorn can mean extra mileage and less predictable access, especially down narrower lanes. Most plumbers factor this into their quote rather than charging a flat rate everywhere. Always ask upfront whether travel is included so there's no surprise on the invoice.
What should I do while I'm waiting for an emergency plumber to reach me out near Over?
Turn off the water at the stopcock straight away, that's the single most useful thing you can do. Switch off any electrics near the leak if there's a risk of water reaching them. Mop up what you can and move valuables away from the area. Rural spots like Over can take a little longer for a callout to arrive, so limiting the damage yourself really helps.
