Emergency plumber in Clapham
- Shared houses where nobody living there knows where the stopcock is
- Washing machine and dishwasher hoses failing in heavily used kitchens
- Landlord and letting agent callouts where the tenant needs an engineer tonight
In a Clapham house share, the first part of any emergency goes on working out who is in charge. Pick one person to call, one to find the stopcock and one to meet the engineer at the door. If a washing machine or dishwasher hose has failed, there is often a small lever valve on the pipe behind the machine, and turning that off shuts down the appliance while the taps and bathrooms carry on working. In the Victorian terraces the main stopcock tends to be under the stairs, in a cellar, or under a hatch in the front hall floor. At night, access is simple in principle and messy in practice. The doorbell might not be heard from a top-floor room, and the person who rang us might have gone out. Give us the mobile number of whoever will actually open the door. If the landlord or agent needs to authorise work, having their out-of-hours number ready saves time.

Common questions
Do you cover Clapham?
We do. Clapham falls within Lambeth, covering the SW4, SW11, SW9 postcodes, and our engineers are out across Greater London from our Fulham office every day.
I rent. Should I call you or my landlord?
If water is actively causing damage, turn it off and stop the damage first, then tell your landlord or agent. Many of them already use us. If you call us direct in an emergency we will attend and invoice whoever is responsible, but tell us the arrangement up front.
Our washing machine flooded the kitchen but the water has stopped. Is it still an emergency?
Probably not, once the supply is off and nothing is still running. Leave the machine unplugged with its valve closed, mop up, and check the ceiling below if another flat sits under your kitchen. It becomes urgent again if water keeps appearing, the floor stays wet underneath, or the downstairs neighbour reports a drip. Otherwise it can be booked as an ordinary repair in daylight, which is cheaper for you than a night visit.
What does it cost?
You will have a price for the work before an engineer starts. If something behind the wall changes the scope, we pause and talk it through with you rather than carrying on and billing you afterwards.
