Plumbing questions answered

Straight answers to the questions we get asked most. Still not sure? Ring us.

Are you open 24 hours?

Yes. Ring 07468 343800 at any time, including nights, weekends and bank holidays.

How much will it cost?

Every job is different, so we give free quotes over the phone once we know what is happening. If a job cannot be priced without seeing it, we will tell you. Nothing goes ahead until you agree.

Do you work for businesses?

Yes. We work in warehouses, units, workshops, shops and offices as well as homes, and can often work out of hours.

Do you work on boilers or gas appliances?

No. We do not work on gas appliances. Use a Gas Safe registered engineer. In a gas emergency, ring 0800 111 999.

Do you work on radiators?

Yes, the water side: radiators, valves, heating pipework, leaks and pressure problems.

Where is my stop tap?

Usually under the kitchen sink, near the front door or under the stairs. In business premises, look near where the supply enters the building. There is also an external stop tap outside, which belongs to the water company.

Who is responsible for a blocked drain?

A drain serving only your property, inside your boundary, is yours. Since 1 October 2011, shared drains and pipes outside your boundary have been the sewerage company’s. Here that is Wessex Water.

Who fixes a leak in the pavement?

The pipe from the main to the external stop tap is normally the water company’s, so contact Bristol Water. From that stop tap in, the pipe is yours.

Could I have lead pipes?

Bristol Water says homes built before the 1970s could have lead pipework. We can replace the section inside your boundary.

Why so much limescale?

Bristol Water describes all the water in its area as moderately hard to very hard. Scale builds up on taps, shower heads and toilet valves.

Do you do electrical work?

No. For electric showers, macerators and sockets, we do the plumbing and an electrician does the connection.

Which areas do you cover?

Avonmouth and a 10-mile radius, including Shirehampton, Lawrence Weston, Sea Mills, Hallen, Severn Beach and north-west Bristol.
