Emergency Plumbing in New Malden
In New Malden, emergencies often come from Victorian and Edwardian terraces, larger 1930s and 1940s detached houses and flats near the station, where age of pipework and the way the building has been altered both play a part. We know the roads around New Malden High Street, Motspur Park and Beverley Brook and plan accordingly.
New Malden spans the boroughs of Kingston and Merton, with a busy High Street and a mix of terraces and larger interwar houses.
A plumbing emergency rarely arrives at a convenient moment. A pipe lets go in the night, a toilet overflows through the ceiling below, or the boiler dies on the coldest evening of the year. What you need first is someone who picks up the phone and tells you what to do right now.

Turn off the water at the stopcock, which is usually under the kitchen sink or near the front door. Switch off the electrics in any wet area if it is safe to do so, and move valuables away from the water.

Common causes are frozen pipes that split on thawing, old joints and corroded fittings, worn washers and valves, and pressure surges. Ageing pipework in older properties is a frequent factor. New Malden's Victorian and Edwardian terraces often have original pipework, narrow access and heating that was added later.
