A Brixton emergency often involves a business and a home in the same building: a restaurant at street level and flats above, sharing drains and sometimes a supply. If you run the kitchen, the first step is to stop discharging water. Shut down the dishwasher, stop the sinks and hold off mopping into a floor gully that is already backing up. Find the kitchen’s own isolation valve, which is often separate from the flats’ supply. If you live above and water or waste is appearing, the cause may be in the unit below, so the business’s keyholder becomes the person to reach. For night attendance, access is the thing to plan. Many units have roller shutters, an alarm and a back door onto a service yard. Tell us which entrance to use and whether someone with the alarm code will be there. Stopping on the main roads is often restricted, so a nearby side street helps.

Questions we often get
Do you work in Brixton?
We do. Brixton falls within Lambeth, covering the SW2, SW9 postcodes, and our engineers are out across Greater London from our Fulham office every day.
Can you come to our restaurant once we have closed?
We can, and for most kitchen jobs it is the only time that makes sense. Give us your service hours when you ring and we will plan the visit to avoid them.
I live above a takeaway and my sink is gurgling and smells of drains. Is that urgent?
It can be. Gurgling and a sewage smell in an upstairs flat often mean a shared drain is partly blocked below you, and grease from a commercial kitchen is a common cause. If water is backing up into your sink or bath, stop using it and call. If it is only the smell, it can usually be booked for daytime. Either way, tell your landlord, because the fix may involve the business’s drainage.
How much will it cost?
Before an engineer starts, you are given a price for the job. Should something hidden in a wall change what is needed, we stop and discuss it with you first, instead of pressing on and sending the bill later.
