You have had the damp patch painted twice and it comes back after every wet week. Somewhere under the floor or inside the wall, a pipe is still weeping, and no amount of filler will fix it. Finding the actual cause, rather than treating the stain, is what MK Heating is usually brought to East Ham for, and it is the difference between a repair and a repeat.
Ring 07950 619 002 and tell us the history: what you have seen, when it started, what previous repairs were tried. We quote in writing before work starts, and we would rather trace a fault properly than sell you the quick fix that fails in March.

What happens when you call
We start with the evidence: stains, mould lines, the sound of running water, meter readings that creep up overnight. From that we agree the investigation, the fix or both, and put the price in writing. For anything urgent, the same number is our 24/7 emergency line.
Once the job is done we test under pressure, run the taps and heating with you watching, and leave the guarantee in writing: six months on workmanship. If the same fault comes back inside that, we return and put it right.
Plumbing in East Ham
East Ham is thick with terraced streets: bay-fronted houses, side returns, extensions added in different decades, each one hiding joints and alterations from a different era. Slow leaks in those hidden runs are common, and they announce themselves as damp and mould long before they show as water. We work with homeowners, landlords and tenants across the area, and we are happy to talk to your builder if a repair needs coordinating.
Frequently asked questions
The stain keeps coming back after decorating. Why?
Because paint covers the symptom, not the leak. Until the pipe, joint or valve behind it is repaired, moisture keeps feeding the patch. Tracing the source is the actual job.
Can you find a leak without destroying the floor?
Usually. Careful tracing narrows the search to a small area before anything is opened up. Ourleak detection service exists for the stubborn cases.
What if I need someone urgently?
Ring 07950 619 002 at any hour; the emergency line runs 24/7. Urgent and planned work reach the same engineers and the same written quotes.
