Hammersmith, W6, is Victorian terraces in Brackenbury Village and around Ravenscourt Park, Georgian and Victorian houses along the river at the Lower and Upper Mall, mansion blocks on the main roads and a dense ring of new apartment buildings around the Broadway. The old houses have been converted, extended and re-plumbed for a century and a half, and the riverside properties sit on a water table that keeps every sub-floor void damp. The new blocks run pressurised systems where one failed joint reaches the flat below in minutes.
We cover Hammersmith for burst pipes, water leaks, leak detection, water through the ceiling, boiler repairs and overflowing toilets, around the clock, from the Chiswick and Barnes side of our network.
Water through the ceiling at night
