Burst pipes in Kingsbury

Most of the bursts we attend in NW9 and the Queensbury side of HA3 are loft pipes above the insulation in the first frost, and old joints letting go where lead met copper. Kingsbury’s 1930s semis have the same clay drains and shared manholes as the rest of Metroland, with the added problem that many gardens have been paved for parking, sending roof and surface water into drains that were never sized for it, which means a lot of uninsulated lofts and long pipe runs. Turn the stopcock, open the cold taps, keep away from the electrics, and call; we’ll cut out the split and replace it the same visit.

Burst pipes in Kingsbury and nearby

Burst pipes in Kingsbury are usually old copper on an outside wall, a loft pipe after a cold night or a compression joint that has let go. Turn the stopcock off, open the cold taps and follow the first ten minutes guide while the engineer drives. We cut out the split section and replace it in copper or plastic from van stock, pressure test the repair and check the rest of the run for the same fault, so most burst pipes are fixed in one visit.

The call-out is £49, the work is quoted on site before it starts, and it carries a 12-month guarantee. Burst pipes in Colindale, Wembley and Harrow are covered from the same depot, and leak detection finds the ones you cannot see.

Burst pipes in Kingsbury: asked on the phone

Freezing, a corroded joint, a nail through it, or old lead-to-copper joints letting go. We’ll show you the section.
Under an hour across NW9 and the Queensbury side of HA3, 24 hours a day.
If the pipe is above it, a small hole where the leak is. We locate first so the hole is in the right place.
We carry a dehumidifier to start it. Serious water damage needs a restoration firm and we’ll say so.
