Plumbing in Bexley: what to know

Bexley Village and the streets around Bexleyheath, Barnehurst and Welling mix older cottages, 1930s semis and post-war houses. Low-lying spots near the River Cray and the Shuttle can be hit hard in heavy rain, when drains that are already partly blocked are the first to back up.

Local tip

If your drains gurgle or are slow every time it rains heavily, that's an early warning of a partial blockage or a damaged pipe. It's cheaper to get it checked before it backs up into the house.

Plumbing problems we help with in Bexley

We cover blocked drains, burst pipes and leaks, boilers and toilets in Bexley; pick the one that matches your problem.

While you wait: what to do now

Shut off the water at the stopcock first, then keep clear of electrics and gas until help arrives.

Find your stopcock and turn it clockwise to shut off the mains. It's usually under the kitchen sink, but in older houses it can be under the stairs, in a downstairs loo or beneath floorboards near the front door.
If water is near electrics, switch off the affected circuits at the consumer unit, but only if you can reach it with dry hands and without standing in water.
Open the cold taps to drain the system once the mains is off, and turn off a combi boiler or immersion heater.
Smell gas? Don't call a plumber. Leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999.
