Do you cover Dartford, Stone, Greenhithe and Wilmington?

Yes. Calls from DA1 and DA2 go to local plumbers who cover Dartford and the surrounding villages.

My new-build boiler stopped in freezing weather. What's wrong?

Often the condensate pipe, the thin plastic pipe running outside, has frozen. Many boilers show a fault code when this happens. Pouring warm (not boiling) water along the outside section can thaw it; if that doesn't work, call and a plumber can help.

Is my new-build plumbing still under warranty?

New homes often come with a builder's or NHBC-type warranty for the first years, but emergency call-outs are often not covered. Check your paperwork. You can still call us in an emergency and sort out the warranty later.

Plumbing in Dartford: what to know

Dartford mixes older terraces around the town centre and West Hill with newer estates such as Ingress Park and the developments around Stone and Greenhithe. Newer homes tend to use plastic pipework and combi boilers, so the common callouts are push-fit joints letting go, frozen condensate pipes in cold snaps, and blocked waste pipes.

Local tip

In a newer home the stopcock is usually under the kitchen sink, and there may also be an outside stop tap under a small cover near the boundary. In flats, check the cupboard by the front door or the airing cupboard.

Plumbing problems we help with in Dartford

We cover blocked drains, burst pipes and leaks, boilers and toilets in Dartford; 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.
