In detail

What each job covers

Boiler Repair

Inspection of the boiler, identification of the fault, repair or replacement of faulty components, safety checks, and testing to ensure the system heats water and radiators correctly.

When you need it. When a boiler stops heating water or radiators, makes unusual noises, leaks, or the pilot light won't stay lit.

Before you get in touch. Note the boiler model and age if known. Check if the pilot light is on. Try resetting it if the manual advises.

Emergency Leaks

Location of the leak source, isolation of water supply if needed, temporary or permanent repair of the damaged pipe or fitting, and drying out affected areas.

When you need it. Water is actively dripping or spraying from a pipe, joint, or fitting, or a ceiling shows signs of water damage.

Before you get in touch. Turn off the water supply at the stopcock if water is pouring. Place buckets under active drips. Note the location.

Drain Unblocking

Diagnosis of the blockage location and cause, removal using plunging, rodding or drain cleaning equipment, flushing through, and checks to confirm water flows freely.

When you need it. Sinks, toilets or baths drain slowly or not at all, or sewage smells are coming from drains.

Before you get in touch. Try a plunger first on sinks and baths. Note which drains are affected. Remove visible hair or debris from plug holes.

Central Heating

Design and installation of pipework, radiators and controls, commissioning the system, bleeding air from radiators, and pressure balancing to ensure even heating throughout.

When you need it. A new property has no heating, the system needs upgrading, or radiators stay cold despite the boiler running.

Before you get in touch. Have the boiler serviced first. Know how many rooms need radiators. Check the water pressure gauge on the boiler.

Bathroom Fitting

Removal of old suite, water supply and drainage installation, fitting of bath or shower enclosure, toilet, basin and taps, tiling, sealing, and testing all water systems.

When you need it. The bathroom suite is old, cracked or stained, or a complete refurbishment is planned.

Before you get in touch. Have the new suite specifications ready. Check water pressure. Ensure the room is accessible and water and electricity are isolated.

General Plumbing

Repair and installation of taps, pipes, joints, cisterns, and fittings. Work includes leaks, blockages, pressure problems, and routine maintenance of water systems.

When you need it. A tap drips, a fitting leaks, water pressure is low, or a pipe develops a problem.

Before you get in touch. Locate the stopcock and note if you can turn it off. Describe where the fault is and any water damage visible.

Good to know

Common questions

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

How do I find the water stopcock in my house?

The stopcock is usually under the kitchen sink, in the hallway, or where the water pipe enters the building from outside. It may be in a small cover in the floor. Turning it clockwise shuts off the water supply to the home.

What should I do if a pipe bursts?

Turn off the water at the stopcock immediately. Open all taps to release pressure. Place buckets or towels under the leak. Turn off the boiler and central heating. Call for emergency repair work straight away.

Why is my boiler making a banging noise?

Banging or kettling usually means scale or sediment has built up inside the boiler, or the system pressure is too high. It can also indicate a fault with the pump. The boiler should be inspected and serviced by a qualified engineer.

Can I fix a leaky tap myself?

Simple fixes like tightening a packing nut or replacing a washer are possible with basic tools. Many modern taps are not user-serviceable. A plumber can usually repair or replace them quickly and cheaply.

How often should a boiler be serviced?

An annual service is recommended for all boilers, ideally before winter. Regular servicing keeps the boiler efficient, extends its life, and ensures it remains safe to use. Many insurers require proof of annual service.

What causes a radiator to stay cold while others heat up?

A single cold radiator usually has air trapped inside or a stuck valve. Bleeding air from the radiator often solves this. If a radiator is warm at the top but cold at the bottom, sludge has built up and the system may need cleaning.
