In detail

What each job covers

Boiler Repair

Boiler diagnosis to identify the fault, repair or replacement of faulty components, testing system pressure and safety controls, and handover of the working boiler.

When you need it. Boiler stops producing heat, pilot light won't stay lit, pressure drops, or strange noises coming from the unit.

Before you get in touch. Note the boiler model and age if known. Check if the pilot light is out. Look for error codes on the display.

Emergency Leaks

Locating the source of the leak, shutting off water supply where safe, making a temporary or permanent repair, and drying affected areas.

When you need it. Visible water spraying from pipes, water dripping from ceilings, or water pooling under sinks and appliances.

Before you get in touch. Turn off the main water stopcock if safe to do so. Identify where water is coming from. Open windows to ventilate.

Drain Unblocking

Locating the blockage using inspection methods, removing debris manually or with a plumbing snake, flushing the line clean, and checking water flows freely.

When you need it. Water drains slowly from sinks, baths or toilets, or backs up and overflows. Toilets won't flush properly.

Before you get in touch. Note which drain is blocked and when it started. Avoid pouring more water down. Remove visible debris from the drain opening.

Central Heating

Design and installation of heating pipework, boiler connection, radiator placement and fitting, system testing, balancing, and commissioning.

When you need it. Installing heating in a new build, replacing an old system, extending heating to new rooms, or upgrading from storage heaters.

Before you get in touch. Measure rooms needing heat. Check boiler location options. Know your fuel type: mains gas, oil tank, or LPG.

Bathroom Fitting

Removing old suite and pipework, preparing surfaces, installing new waste and water pipes, fitting bath or shower, basin, toilet and taps, finishing with sealant.

When you need it. Bathroom suite is old or broken, you want a new layout, or pipes are leaking behind walls or under floors.

Before you get in touch. Measure the space and note window and door positions. Decide on bath, shower or both. Know where water and waste connections are.

General Plumbing

Tap washer and cartridge replacement, pipe repair or replacement, water supply troubleshooting, fitting new appliances and routine maintenance work.

When you need it. Taps drip or won't turn off, water is discoloured, pressure is low, or appliances need connecting to water and waste.

Before you get in touch. Turn off the water supply at the stopcock if you can't stop a leak. Check where the mains supply enters the property.

Good to know

Common questions

General guidance about plumbers in the UK, not specific to any one business.

Can anyone repair a gas boiler?

Only a Gas Safe registered engineer may legally work on a gas boiler. It is an offence for an unregistered person to do so. Always ask for the engineer's Gas Safe ID card before work begins.

What should I do if a pipe bursts?

Turn off the mains water at the stopcock immediately. Open taps to drain remaining water from the system. Locate the burst and do not use that section of pipework. Call a plumber for repair.

How often should a boiler be serviced?

A gas boiler should be serviced annually, ideally before winter. Annual servicing keeps the system safe, maintains efficiency, and helps spot problems early before they become expensive failures.

Why is my heating system losing pressure?

A slow pressure drop usually means a small leak in pipes, radiators or connections. A rapid drop may indicate a more serious leak or failed component. The system should not lose pressure during normal use.

What causes blocked drains?

Build-up of hair, grease, soap, food waste and other debris narrows pipes until water cannot flow. Tree roots can also crack pipes and cause blockages. Regular clearing prevents backups and overflows.

Do I need Building Regulations approval for bathroom work?

Most bathroom installations require Building Regulations sign-off to ensure electrical safety, ventilation, water supply standards and waste pipe sizing are correct. Check with the local authority before starting work.
