British Gas & Thames Water Team Up to Keep Your Pipes Happy (and Your Wallets Fuller)
Good news for over a million homeowners: A new partnership between British Gas and Thames Water is coming in hot, ready to slash plumbing costs and make your home a bit greener.
What’s the Deal?
For just 99p a month for the first year, Thames Water customers can get:
- Leak‑fixing cover for avoiding water damage
- Plumbing & drain maintenance right at your doorstep
- Emergency services for those oh‑no moments (think burst pipes, blocked toilets)
These offers are popping up on Thames Water’s website, and you’ll even see them scribbled on your bill or statement. Easy-peasy.
The Numbers Behind the Offer
Thames Water serves 3.3 million households, with 56% homeowners. That means a potential customer base of about 1.85 million who can now rely on British Gas for affordable, reliable inside‑home plumbing help. Plus, non‑homeowners aren’t left out – more services are on the horizon.
How Do They Do It?
The magic happens thanks to British Gas and Dyno Rod engineers (Dyno Rod is a family of British Gas owned brands). They’ll:
- Unblock sinks and toilets (no more dreaded clogs)
- Deploy on‑demand fixes for unexpected tantrums like sudden pipe bursts
Leadership Voices
Matthew Bateman, Managing Director of British Gas Services & Solutions, says:
“We’re thrilled to partner with Thames Water. This is our first strategic water partnership, and it sets the stage for more sustainable and affordable living. We’re also exploring how our smart‑home products can help with water‑leak detection, staying true to Thames’s environmental goals.”
Warren Buckley, Retail Director at Thames Water, adds:
“A blocked toilet or leaking pipe is a real nightmare. With British Gas on board, we’re bringing trusted, expert help straight to your home—so you can keep the water flowing (and the drama away).”
Quick Tips for Keeping Your Pipes Under Control
- Stick to the three Ps – pee, poo, and toilet paper – when flushing.
- Dump kitchen oil and fats in the bin, not the drain.
- Regularly check for leaks to catch problems early.
Why It Matters
By cutting down on leaks and faulty plumbing, you’re not only saving money (and your hair—no more hair in the sink), but you’re also contributing to a greener planet. Every leak tackled feels like a tiny victory for Earth.
So, if you’re a Thames Water homeowner (or soon to be!), grab that 99p plan and let British Gas & Dyno Rod keep your home (and your wallet) happy.
