Common Questions — Stopcock Repair in Islington

How do I turn off my water in Islington if the stopcock is seized?

If your internal stopcock is seized in a Islington property, the water can usually be isolated at the external stopcock on the pavement (requires a stopcock key) or at the water meter box. Call us — we carry stopcock keys and can isolate within minutes of arrival.

Can you replace a seized stopcock without cutting off the whole supply in Islington?

We use the external stopcock or meter to isolate the supply to your Islington property, then replace the internal stopcock. The whole process typically takes under an hour and supply is restored before we leave.

My stopcock is leaking in Islington. Is that an emergency?

A leaking stopcock spindle gland in a Islington property is usually a slow drip that can wait for a scheduled visit. If the stopcock body is leaking or the valve won't close, that's more urgent — call us immediately so we can isolate and repair before it worsens.
