Plumbing Repairs, Maintenance and Planned Work
Most plumbing calls start with a straightforward symptom: a tap will not stop dripping, a toilet keeps running, water is appearing where it should not, a sink will not a shower is not working properly or the water pressure has dropped. Our job is to identify the cause, explain the options and carry out the agreed repair.
Planned work is also available, including replacement pipework, new taps and sinks, kitchen appliance connections, bathroom plumbing, stopcocks, valves and other water-supply work. We can also help with leak detection, boilers, heating, electrical work and commercial plumbing when the job needs specialist support.
