The process

How emergency plumbing is triaged in Kilburn

  1. Call for make-safe triage in Kilburn

    Phone with the full unit postcode for NW6. 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 Kilburn 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 Kilburn.

  4. Make-safe attendance when capacity allows

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

  5. Photograph after isolation (if safe)

    Capture the failed fitting and path for permanent-repair triage in Kilburn. Do not enter unsafe spaces for photos.

  6. Plan permanent repair under written scope

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