Plumbing & Leak Repairs

Emergency response for burst pipes, failed valves, overflowing appliances and hidden water movement across Southwark.

Our emergency plumbing service covers all types of water-related incidents in residential, commercial and communal properties. From burst pipes to hidden leaks, our qualified engineers respond 24/7 across SE1, SE5, SE15, SE16 and SE17.

Emergency Pipe Burst Repair

Available 24/7, our team responds immediately to burst and split pipework, isolating the water supply on arrival to stop further loss before carrying out a permanent repair. Every job is completed by fully qualified plumbing engineers using fully stocked vans, so most repairs are finished in a single visit.

Hidden Leak Detection

Using acoustic sensors and thermal imaging equipment, we trace the exact source of a hidden leak without unnecessary disruption to walls, floors or ceilings. This non-invasive approach means repairs are targeted precisely at the fault, saving time and reducing repair costs.

Under-Floor and In-Wall Leak Repairs

Where a leak originates beneath flooring or inside a wall cavity, our engineers carry out controlled access and repair with minimal disturbance to finishes. We document the affected area before and after works for your records or insurer.

Emergency Water Supply Isolation

When a leak or burst threatens to escalate, we isolate the mains or local supply immediately to prevent further water loss and damage. This is often the first and most critical step taken on arrival at any water-related emergency.

Plumbing & Leak FAQs

How fast can you get to a burst pipe in Southwark?

Our target attendance across SE1, SE5, SE15, SE16 and SE17 is 60 minutes from your call, day or night. The dispatcher will also talk you through finding and shutting your stopcock while the engineer is on the way, so water loss stops well before we arrive.

Do night and weekend call-outs cost more?

No. Our emergency rate is the same around the clock — from £150 + VAT for the first hour on site — whether it's 3pm on a Tuesday or 3am on a bank holiday. You'll always get an exact price before any further work begins.

Can you fix a hidden leak without ripping out my walls or floors?

In most cases, yes. We use acoustic sensors and thermal imaging to pinpoint the source first, so we only open up the exact section that needs repair rather than guessing and cutting large areas of wall or flooring.

What should I do while I wait for the plumber?

Shut off the main stopcock if it's safe to reach, move anything valuable away from the affected area, and switch off power to any sockets or lights near standing water. Don't attempt to cut into pipework or ceilings yourself.

Will I get paperwork I can send to my insurer?

Yes. Every plumbing call-out can be followed by a written report covering the cause of the leak, the work carried out, and photographic evidence — in the format loss adjusters expect.

Is the repair guaranteed?

All permanent plumbing repairs carried out by our engineers are workmanship-guaranteed. If a temporary make-safe was needed on the day, we'll always agree the plan and price for the permanent fix before we leave.
