Does licensing in Greenwich affect plumbing?

Greenwich Council runs its own licensing arrangements on top of national mandatory HMO licensing. Our summary was last checked on 2026-10-20; always confirm the current position on the council website. Licence conditions commonly require current safety certificates to be available on request, which is why we keep every document digitally against the property.

Who is responsible for a leaking pipe in a rented property?

Landlords generally have responsibilities for relevant water installations, but responsibility for a particular leak depends on its source, the tenancy and any building management arrangements. Report it promptly with photographs and location details. Disputes about responsibility should not delay necessary steps to limit an active hazard.

Can you repair a boiler as part of a plumbing visit?

Gas boiler work must be allocated to a suitably qualified Gas Safe registered engineer. Describe the appliance and fault when booking so the correct trade can be arranged. Electric water heaters and other systems may require different competence, so a general plumbing visit is not automatically sufficient.

Plumbing in Greenwich | Peachtree Maintenance

Plumbing in Greenwich: the local picture

A plumbing report from Abbey Wood or Thamesmead should establish whether the problem affects one dwelling or a shared supply before isolation is attempted. In older Plumstead terraces, later bathroom additions can make the pipe route less obvious than the original layout suggests. Greenwich Peninsula flats may require managing-agent access to risers or communal equipment. Peachtree Maintenance records the observed issue and agreed repair, explaining when concealed pipework needs further investigation and when another responsible party must authorise work before the scope can proceed.

What the rules say

Under section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, landlords of most residential lets must keep installations for water, sanitation and heating in repair and proper working order. Leaks left unresolved can lead to damp and mould.

We handle leaks, blockages, taps, toilets, cylinders and pipework. Any work on gas appliances is carried out only by Gas Safe registered engineers, and every job comes with before and after photos.
