What Element Covers Under "Water (Plumbing)"

Vented and unvented cylinder installation and replacement, G3 qualified.

Shower Installations & Replacements

New mixer shower installations, and electric shower replacements.

Bathroom Installations

Full turnkey bathroom projects, project-managed from first fix to finish.

Is It Time for Plumbing Work?

  • Dripping taps, running toilets, or unexplained increases in your water bill
  • Reduced or inconsistent water pressure
  • Your hot water cylinder or boiling water tap is showing its age
  • Your bathroom is dated, damaged, or no longer works for your household
  • Visible leaks, damp, or water staining anywhere in the property

How It Works

  1. Repairs and servicing can usually be booked straight in online. Installations start with a quick form so we understand what you need.

  2. Tell us what you need

    Which service (repair, cylinder, tap, shower, or bathroom), your budget, and your timescale.

  3. Survey or booking

    Installations usually require a home survey followed by a fixed quote, so no surprises for us or you. Repairs and servicing just require booking in.

  4. The work

    Clear communication throughout, and every job completed to a high standard, with full paperwork on completion.
