Plumbing services

The everyday trade: taps, toilets, drains, leaks and installations. Most of what goes wrong in a house is on this page, and most of it is quicker to fix than people expect.

What we handle

  • Dripping and leaking taps, including the ones that only drip at night when the pressure rises.
  • Leaking or running toilets, a quiet water-waster that shows up on the bill before the floor.
  • Blocked drains: clearing them, and working out why the same one keeps blocking. What causes blocked drains covers the usual suspects.
  • Drain installation and repair, including broken and root-damaged lines.
  • Fixture and appliance installation: dishwashers, washing machines, sinks, tubs and toilets, plumbed in properly with the right valves.
  • Backflow prevention, testing and installation.
  • Fridge water and ice-maker lines, run cleanly and without the kinks that starve them.
  • Maintenance and urgent repairs: a burst pipe or an overflowing drain doesn't keep business hours, and urgent problems get treated as urgent.

Not sure what the problem actually is?

That's normal, and it's the reason our symptom index exists. Describe what the house is doing: everything draining slowly, a bill that jumped, banging in the walls. Each entry says what it usually means and how quickly it needs someone.

No need for the right terminology. Describe the problem however it sounds and we'll come back with what it most likely is and what fixing it involves.
