Locally, this is what comes up

Emergency plumber in Putney

  • Stacks in mansion blocks by the bridge, where a single blockage backs up into several flats
  • Lower-ground rooms near the river whose pumped waste gives out under heavy use
  • Roehampton estate homes on a shared supply, where turning the water off is a communal task

Putney’s emergencies depend on which end of it you live in. In the mansion blocks near the bridge, a toilet or bath backing up usually means the shared stack is blocked lower down, so the fix is to stop everyone on that stack using water, not just you. Many of these blocks have a porter in the daytime only, so at night the managing agent’s emergency line is how you reach the shared valves and the basement. Out at Roehampton, the blocks are larger and taller. If you rent from the council, report it on their out-of-hours line too, since communal pipework is theirs to repair. For a night visit, give us the block name and the entrance, since several blocks can look alike from the road, and say whether the lift serves your floor. In the Victorian terraces in between, it is the familiar picture: converted flats, and a leak that shows first in the lower one.

Questions

Questions we often get

Do you work in Putney?

We do. Putney falls within Wandsworth, covering the SW15, SW18 postcodes, and our engineers are out across Greater London from our Fulham office every day.

Is it an emergency if waste has backed up in my basement bathroom?

Yes, if the bathroom is on a pumped system and the pump has stopped. Without gravity to fall back on, whatever goes down stays put. Stop using that bathroom completely and ring us. If everything else in the house drains as normal, it is the pump that has failed and the main drain is fine.

Water is coming through the stairwell ceiling, not into my flat. Should I call anyone?

Yes. A leak in a communal stairwell usually comes from a riser or a flat above, and it can get into lighting and lift equipment. Report it to the managing agent or the council’s out-of-hours line straight away, and keep people away from any wet light fittings. We can attend on the building’s instruction, but we will need someone who can open the service cupboards. Photos showing where it is coming from help.

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.
