Plumbing in Croydon for leaks, burst pipes, taps, toilets, radiators and bathroom work, with boiler repairs by our Gas Safe registered engineer. If water is coming through, call us: we aim to attend urgent leaks in Croydon the same day.
We work across the borough, from Thornton Heath and Norbury to South Croydon, Purley, Sanderstead and Coulsdon. Our plumber works on our own refurbishments as well as call-outs, so a repair that has damaged a ceiling or a wall can be put right by the same team afterwards. Send photographs and tell us where the water is showing.

Tell us what needs fixing
Leaks, taps, toilets and pipework
We trace and repair leaks from pipes, joints, valves and fittings, replace dripping taps and worn washers, and fix running or leaking toilets and cisterns. Burst and frozen pipes can be isolated, repaired and the damaged section replaced.
Tell us where the water shows, whether it is clean or dirty, and whether it is constant or only when something is used. A photograph of the stain, the pipe or the fitting usually tells us what to bring.
Radiators, boilers and bathrooms
Radiators can be added, moved, replaced or fitted with new valves, and cold or noisy systems flushed and balanced. Boiler faults and repairs are carried out by our Gas Safe registered engineer; tell us the boiler make, model and any fault code on the display.
For a new bathroom or kitchen, the plumbing is planned with the rest of the work: pipe routes, waste falls, valves and access panels are agreed before the walls and floors are closed in. See our bathroom and plumbing pages for planned work.
Leaks and urgent call-outs in Croydon
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the stopcock, usually under the kitchen sink or where the supply enters the house. If water is near a light or socket, switch that circuit off at the fuse board. Then call or WhatsApp us with photographs: we aim to attend urgent leaks in Croydon the same day.
Many Croydon homes are Victorian and Edwardian terraces or interwar semis, where older lead or iron pipework and shared supplies are common. In a flat, tell us whether the leak may be coming from the flat above. Let us know the postcode, parking and how we get to the problem, so the right parts come on the first visit.

These are typical ranges for London, not fixed prices. We confirm the charge before anyone sets off, and your quotation depends on the fault, the access and the parts needed.
Work
Typical price
Call-outs
Call-out and first hour typically £90 to £150 in the daytime, £150 to £250 in the evening or at weekends. After the first hour, typically £70 to £120 an hour.
Leaks and burst pipes
A simple leak repair typically £80 to £150. A burst pipe typically £100 to £500, depending on where the pipe is and what has to be opened up to reach it.
Radiators
Replacing a radiator like for like typically £200 to £400 for the work, or £250 to £1,000 with the new radiator, depending on its type and size.
Boiler repairs
Most boiler repairs typically £200 to £500 in London, depending on the fault and the parts. Replacement boilers are quoted separately after a visit.
Prices usually exclude VAT. Damage to ceilings, walls or floors from a leak is priced separately, and we can repair it as part of the same job.
For urgent leaks in Croydon we aim to attend the same day. Call or WhatsApp us with photographs and your postcode. Evening and weekend visits cost more, and we confirm the call-out charge before anyone sets off.
Are you Gas Safe registered?
Yes. Boiler and gas appliance work is carried out by our Gas Safe registered engineer. Ask to see the engineer's Gas Safe ID card when they arrive; you can check it on the Gas Safe Register.
Can you repair the ceiling after a leak?
Yes. Once the leak is fixed and the area has dried out, we can repair or replace the damaged plaster or plasterboard and redecorate, so you do not need a second firm. Photographs of the damage help us price it.
What to send for a useful quotation
Send the Croydon postcode, photographs of the leak, fitting or damage, what you have already tried, and whether the water is off. For boilers, add the make, model and any fault code. Tell us whether it is urgent and when someone can let us in.
If the work needs a site visit before we price it, our engineer's visit is free, with no obligation.
