Every emergency we attend in London, and what to do while we're on the way.

Water is coming out of a pipe and you cannot stop it
A stain is spreading, or water is dripping from above
Taps run cold, or the shower has gone freezing
The boiler has locked out, or is showing a fault code
Drains outside are backing up or overflowing
The toilet will not flush, or water is rising
You can smell gas, or the CO alarm has gone off
A drain that rodding hasn't shifted, or repeated blockages
No water in cold weather, or a pipe that's visibly swollen
A radiator or valve is dripping onto the floor

Standing water in a basement, cellar or ground floor
It's the middle of the night, a weekend or a bank holiday
Water is getting somewhere it should not and you cannot see where from
An emergency is water you cannot stop, gas you can smell, heat you have lost in freezing weather, or a single toilet in the house that no longer works. Those get an engineer at any hour. Anything else, we will tell you honestly on the phone that it can wait until morning and cost you less.

Local conditions we work around
London runs on some of the hardest water in the country, roughly 280 to 320 ppm from the chalk that Thames Water draws on. Scale is the quiet cause behind a surprising share of the emergencies we attend: it narrows pipework, coats heat exchangers until a boiler overheats and locks out, and seizes the very stopcock you need at two in the morning. Add pipework that in much of the city dates to the Victorian or Edwardian build and was last touched in the 1960s, and the failures cluster in ways we can usually predict from the postcode before we arrive.
Water where it
shouldn't be? Call.
A person answers, not a menu. You'll have an arrival time and a price range before you hang up.
