Tooting runs on hard-working plumbing. The long Victorian terraces around Tooting Bec and Tooting Broadway, the converted flats off the High Street, and the shared houses packed in near St George's Hospital all put real demand on taps, toilets, showers and hot water — and when something fails, it rarely waits for a convenient moment. We handle the everyday plumbing and heating that keeps SW17 homes and rentals working: dripping taps and running toilets, burst pipes and blocked wastes, cold or leaking radiators, and the tired bathrooms that come with older stock.
Most jobs start with a phone call and end the same day. We carry the common parts — washers, valves, ballcocks, radiator bleed keys and the rest — so a leaking tap or a toilet that won't stop filling is usually sorted on the first visit. For anything bigger, from re-plumbing a bathroom off Mitcham Road to swapping a run of tired radiators up in Furzedown, we trace the fault to its actual source, quote the work before we start, and book it in around you. If a job touches the gas supply or the boiler itself, that part is carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
We cover the whole of Tooting — Tooting Bec, Upper Tooting, Furzedown, Tooting Graveney and the busier roads around Garratt Lane, Trinity Road and Longmead Road — for homeowners, landlords and the letting agents who manage the area's many shared houses. Kitchen and bathroom plumbing is a steady part of it too, from a worn tap or waste to a dated bathroom re-plumbed. Whether it's an emergency leak that needs the stopcock off in a hurry or a planned upgrade between tenancies, you get one number to call and a team used to the quirks of period South London property.

Why Tooting homes and landlords rely on us for plumbing and heating
The stock here shapes the work. The classic Tooting terrace — two storeys with a back-addition running off the rear — often still carries sections of original lead or iron supply pipe under the floors and behind lath-and-plaster, along with a long, slow run of hot water out to the back-addition bathroom. We upgrade old lead to copper or plastic to improve flow and water quality, and rework those long runs so hot water actually arrives before it goes cold. Settling in these houses also loosens joints over the years, which is where a lot of the quiet under-floor leaks begin.
Nearer St George's, the shared houses are a different problem again. Several people relying on one bathroom and one hot water system means taps, shower valves and cylinders take a hammering, so we fit sturdier fittings built for constant use and check that hot water capacity keeps up when more than one shower is running. In the period conversions off the High Street, a leak in one flat often traces back to a shared soil stack or rising main serving another — we diagnose the whole run rather than the symptom, and isolate cleanly so a repair never means draining the whole building. Between tenancies, it's usually the steady list — a dripping tap, a running toilet, a sluggish waste, a radiator cold at the bottom — sorted quickly so the flat is ready for the next tenant.

Plumbing & Heating in Tooting — FAQs
Can you sort hot water problems in a shared house near St George's?
Yes. Shared houses around St George's put several bathrooms and showers on one system, so cylinders and hot water capacity get stretched. We check whether the system can keep up, replace tired cylinders, immersions and valves, and fit fittings that stand up to constant use. If the boiler itself is involved, a Gas Safe registered engineer handles that part.
How quickly can you get to a job in Tooting?
Tooting is minutes from our base, so it is one of our fastest areas to reach. For urgent repairs we aim to offer a same-day or next-day slot wherever our schedule allows — call us and we will let you know the soonest we can be there.
Do you work with Tooting landlords and letting agents?
Yes. A lot of SW17 stock is rented, and we regularly handle reactive repairs, between-tenancy work and safety-related jobs for landlords and agents managing flats and shared houses around Tooting Bec and Tooting Broadway.
Can you help with a leak quickly?
Get in touch as soon as you notice a leak and we will do our best to get to you fast. In the meantime, turning off the stopcock helps limit any water damage.
Do you work on gas boilers?
Any work on gas appliances must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Tell us what you need and we will make sure the right qualified engineer attends. (Ask us to confirm current registration details.)
Do you fit bathrooms as well as repair them?
Yes. As well as repairs we handle full bathroom plumbing — see our Kitchen & Bathroom service, or ask for a combined quote.
Can you fix a leak or dripping tap the same day?
Often, yes. We carry common parts and prioritise leaks, so many drips, running toilets and tap problems are sorted in a single visit. Call us and we will give you the soonest slot we can.
Can you repair cold radiators and failing heating?
Yes. We bleed, balance, repair and swap radiators, replace faulty valves and put right common heating faults. If the fault is with a gas boiler itself, a Gas Safe registered engineer handles that part.
Do you handle both emergency repairs and planned upgrades?
Both. We deal with urgent leaks and breakdowns, and we also carry out planned work like re-plumbing a bathroom, upgrading old pipework or improving a tired heating system.
