Emergency Heating Services in North London – our top tips

You just don’t know when you are going to have a plumbing emergency – they wouldn’t be emergencies if you knew when they were going to happen. If and when it does happen, you don’t have to panic over the upheaval it will cause.

As they say, forewarned is forearmed so with that in mind know that it is a real possibility and arm yourself with our top tips for handling a plumbing emergency in North London.

1 Issues that require emergency plumbing services in North London

 

There may be a time that you have a feeling that there is an issue with the plumbing, but for whatever reason, you decide to put it off. This could be because you are running late for an appointment or work, or maybe you noticed as you were going to bed and forgot the next day.
Whatever the reason, there are some plumbing emergencies that are worth being late for or staying up a little longer for:

• Gas pipe problems
• Leaking pipes
• Frozen pipes
• Boiler cracks
• Overflowing waste pipes (especially internal)

Any of these can be potentially disastrous if you don’t attend to them right away, and very often disastrous means expensive. You need to get in touch with trusted emergency plumbing services in North London.

 

2 Before your emergency plumber even arrives…

 

The first thing that you need to do, once you realise there is a problem, is to shut off the water supply. This will have two effects: it will help reduce the risk of electrical shock, and it will prevent further damage to your home and its contents.
If the leak is gas related, the gas valve must be turned off – if you know where it is, of course. Either way, leave the home and move away to a safe distance and then call your emergency plumbing service.

 

3 Don’t wait for an emergency to find out who to call

 

Being prepared is going to save you a lot of potential heartaches. As well as knowing where your gas valve is, and how to shut off the water supply, this also means knowing who you are going to call in an emergency.
Search engines are great for this, looking for the best emergency plumbing services in North London (for example). Reviews will tell you which companies have a good reputation, and why. Friend’s recommendations are helpful too.

Find one that looks right for you, and write down the number. You never know when you will need it.

 

4 Have a checklist of what you need from an emergency plumbing service

 

Make a list of things that you know you will need from an emergency plumber – this will help you to narrow your search list:

• The services you shortlist should obviously be local, or local enough they can get to your property quickly. Also, because some emergencies really are emergencies and can turn potentially dangerous, the emergency plumbing service needs to be contactable 24/7.

• Only choose certified companies, in particular, make sure they are Gas Safe registered – this is really easy to verify (and our registered number is 594276).

• Services provided should be provided with a guarantee.
