What we handle in Greenwich
Greenwich’s housing stock — period conversions, post-war estates and new riverside towers — produces its own patterns of plumbing failure, and we arrive knowing them. Our engineers are leak-detection specialists as well as plumbers, which matters most in the emergencies where water appears with no visible source.
First priority is always isolation: the water stops, then the diagnosis starts, then the repair is agreed and done. You are never billed for work that was not explained first.

Emergency plumbing in Greenwich — FAQs
How fast can a plumber reach Greenwich?
For genuine emergencies in Greenwich we prioritise the earliest available engineer and give you an honest arrival window when you book — not an optimistic one. While the engineer travels, we talk you through isolating the water so the damage stops immediately.
What does an emergency call-out cost?
The call-out and first-hour rate is quoted when you book, before anyone travels. Out-of-hours slots carry an uplift and we state the exact figure upfront — the price you hear is the price you pay.
Water is coming through my ceiling in Greenwich but I can’t see the source — can you handle that?
That is our speciality. Our emergency plumbers carry leak detection equipment, so an invisible source gets traced with thermal imaging and acoustic tools rather than exploratory holes. New riverside developments run plastic push-fit pipework in ceiling voids; a single failed O-ring can soak several flats before it surfaces.
Do you fix the problem permanently or just make it safe?
Both, in that order. Emergencies are stabilised first — water isolated, damage stopped — then repaired properly on the same visit wherever access and parts allow. Anything bigger is quoted clearly before we continue.
Water is coming through my ceiling from the flat above in a Royal Arsenal Riverside block. What should I do?
In these new-builds it is often a slipped push-fit joint in the void above rather than corroded pipe. Isolate your own supply at the internal stop tap and switch off electrics to any wet area. Contact out-of-hours building management to reach communal stop taps and the flat above. When you call us we confirm the price before travelling and trace the joint before opening plasterboard.
A pipe has burst in my Georgian Greenwich townhouse at night. What now?
Turn off the internal stop tap to isolate the supply, then open cold taps to drain down and reduce leakage. Switch off electrics near water and the boiler if heating is affected. In period pipework the split is often hidden behind walls or under floors, so we agree a price before anyone travels and use leak-detection kit to find the source rather than opening up blindly.
