    Phone with the full unit postcode for N4. Describe uncontrolled water, isolation status and access. Capacity is confirmed case by case — this page does not guarantee an arrival time.

  2. Isolate safely if you can

    If safe at the Finsbury Park property, shut the stopcock, keep clear of electrics near water, and move people from wet floors.

  3. Share access and risk details

    Who opens the door, floor level for flats, freeholder emergency contacts, and whether water is entering common parts or rooms below in Finsbury Park.

  4. Make-safe attendance when capacity allows

    Accepted emergency work focuses on isolation and temporary containment for the Finsbury Park unit under written terms when attendance is confirmed.

  5. Photograph after isolation (if safe)

  6. Plan permanent repair under written scope

    Follow-up plumbing for Finsbury Park is scoped separately after make-safe — in-house delivery, not a marketplace auction.
