Symptoms and likely causes
| Symptom | Most likely cause |
|---|---|
| Water running or dripping with every tap closed | A leak on a supply pipe, a passing valve or an overflowing cistern |
| No water at any tap | A closed or seized stop tap, a frozen pipe in winter, or a mains supply fault |
| Hot water gone but heating still works | A failed cylinder coil, immersion element or diverter valve |
| Toilet or sink draining slowly across the property | A blockage in the shared soil stack or the run to the drain, not in the fitting |
| Damp patch on a ceiling below a bathroom | A waste, seal or supply leak above — isolate electrics in that room first |
| Boiler losing pressure repeatedly | A small leak on the heating circuit or a failed expansion vessel |
| Weak flow at one outlet only | Scale in the tap or shower cartridge, common on this hard water supply |

What to do before the plumber arrives
- 1Turn the water offClose the internal stop tap, usually under the kitchen sink or near the front door in a flat. If it will not turn, use the external stop tap in the covered box near the boundary.
- 2Make the electrics safeIf water is near lights, sockets or an appliance, switch that circuit off at the consumer unit before touching anything.
- 3Drain the pipework downOpen the cold taps to empty the pipes and reduce what escapes while you wait.
- 4Contain and protectPut buckets and towels down, lift what you can off the floor, and warn a neighbour below if you are in a flat.
- 5Call with your postcodeCall 020 8798 2063. Give the postcode and what you can see — we confirm which price band applies and a realistic arrival window before an engineer sets off.

What we see around Guildford & West Surrey
Hard water is the local reality
Much of Surrey sits on chalk and the mains supply is classified as hard. That shows up as scale in cylinders, immersion heaters, shower cartridges and tap mechanisms, and it is the single most common reason a fitting that should last years fails early here.
Older terraces and converted flats
Period terraces and subdivided houses often share soil stacks and waste runs between flats, so a blockage in one property surfaces in another. Establishing whose run is affected is the first job, not an afterthought.
Student and rental turnover
A large rental market around the university and town centre means void periods, drain-downs and quick reactive repairs between tenancies. We work with landlords and agents on that cycle.
