Do this now: Turn the stopcock off, usually under the kitchen sink or, in an extended house, sometimes left behind in the old kitchen’s position. Turn off the boiler if water is near it, keep children away from wet electrics, and catch what you can in a bucket.
Interwar semis and terraces
Most of Hounslow is 1920s and 1930s semis and terraces either side of the Great West Road and around Lampton, Hanworth Road and Whitton Road. Many have been extended at the back and into the loft to make room for larger households. That means more bathrooms on old pipework, long kitchen waste runs, and combi boilers working hard.
Busy households, hard water
Homes with several adults and children use far more hot water than they were built for. Combis lose pressure, cylinders scale up, and shower valves wear out faster in hard water. A thermostatic cartridge or a descale is often the fix rather than a new shower.
Rented homes and flats
There is a lot of rented housing around the High Street, Bath Road and Bell Road, including flats over shops and converted houses. Shared supplies and shared drains are common, and tenants often do not know where the stopcock is until there is a leak. Find it before you need it.
Price and nearby
£110 for the first hour and £45 for each further half hour, plus parts. No call-out fee at any time. We also cover Twickenham, Chiswick and Staines. For blocked drains, see emergency drain unblocking.

Questions people ask
Our house has a big rear extension and the kitchen sink keeps blocking. Why?
Extensions often move the sink a long way from the original drain, so the waste pipe runs a long distance with very little slope. Grease settles in it and builds up. Clearing it fixes the symptom; adding access points or improving the fall stops it coming back.
We have a lot of people in the house and the hot water runs out. Can a plumber help?
Yes. A combi can only heat so much water at once, and an old cylinder may be too small or badly scaled. We check what you have and tell you whether a repair, a bigger cylinder or a different setup suits the household.
Our landlord is abroad. Can you fix an emergency leak?
Yes. Stop the water at the stopcock and call us. We fix what is needed to make it safe and leave a written note of what we did for the landlord or agent.
How much is an emergency plumber in Hounslow?
