Millwall lives vertically. When a washing machine hose splits on the twentieth floor, the water does not stay in the flat for long, and the neighbour below finds out before you do. High-rise and podium developments dominate around Millwall, and plumbing faults in them move fast. MK Heating covers the Isle of Dogs with a 24/7 emergency line.
Ring 07950 619 002 as soon as water is loose. We will help you shut the water off, which in many modern flats means finding the isolation valve or the stopcock inside the unit, and then get an engineer on the way with an arrival window you can act on.

What happens when you call
Flats with concierge or managed access are normal for us: tell us what the building needs and we will work with it. On the phone we will locate your shut-off, agree an arrival window and ask for photos on WhatsApp if that is easier than describing the leak.
The engineer stops the water, finds the failed part and quotes before repairing. Written quotes, free of charge, and a six-month workmanship guarantee on completed work. If the fault affects a neighbour's property too, we will tell you plainly what is ours to fix and what needs the freeholder or management company.
Plumbing around Millwall
The streets between Canary Wharf and the river are dominated by modern developments, alongside older terraces near the Isle of Dogs edges. New-build flats throw up their own patterns: appliance connections fitted at speed, isolation valves stiff from disuse and push-fit joints that weep under pressure. We carry the parts these systems actually use.
Frequently asked questions
The leak is going into the flat below. What first?
Shut your water off and warn your neighbour now, while you have us on the phone. Then let the engineer in: stopping the source comes before any ceiling, anywhere.
Can you work in buildings with concierge access?
Yes. Give us the access details when you ring and we will work to your building's process, whether that means signing in or waiting for a slot.
Do you handle boiler problems as well?
Yes. Heating is the core of the business, so a leaking boiler or cylinder is not a referral for us. Gas Safe registered engineers do all gas work.
