Service overview

## What domestic plumbing actually involves.
Plain-English breakdown, so you know exactly what you&#x27;re paying for, and why it matters before we set foot on site.

### What it is
General and reactive domestic plumbing across St Albans and Hertfordshire, leak detection, tap and mixer swaps, toilet repairs and replacements, stopcock and isolation valve fits, waste and soil work, copper and plastic pipework, outside taps and washing machine connections.

### Who it&#x27;s for
Homeowners with a nagging leak, a tap that won&#x27;t stop dripping, a toilet that runs forever, or a kitchen/utility refit that needs the pipework moved properly before the units go in.

### When you need it
Same-week for non-urgent work. Same-day for active leaks and water-off situations through our 24/7 emergency line.

### Why it matters
Plumbing done by heating engineers means joints, isolation and pressure are treated with the same discipline as a boiler install, not a quick squeeze of PTFE and a hope.

The cost of doing nothing

## What goes wrong when this is ignored.
Most plumbing complaints we get called to fix were caused by the previous plumber cutting corners, bad joints, wrong fittings, no isolation, no test.

###  Risks of waiting

- Hidden leaks rotting joists and lifting flooring for months before they show
- Cheap push-fit on hot feeds that creep and drip behind kitchen units
- Missing isolation valves meaning the whole house gets turned off for a tap swap

### Common mistakes

- Hiring on price alone for &#x27;quick jobs&#x27; that come back twice
- Letting a bathroom fitter do the plumbing &#x27;on the side&#x27; with no test
- Ignoring a slow leak because it &#x27;isn&#x27;t dripping much yet&#x27;

Our process

## How the job actually runs.
Same system every time. No improvising on your floor.

- 01

### Describe the job
Phone, WhatsApp or form, photos help. We&#x27;ll tell you honestly whether it&#x27;s a 30-minute job or a half-day.

- 02

### Fixed quote in writing
Where possible, priced before we arrive. No &#x27;while we&#x27;re here&#x27; surprises.

- 03

### On-site, neatly
Dust sheets down, isolation in, work done, pressure tested, area left cleaner than we found it.

- 04

### 12-month guarantee
Every joint and fitting we install is guaranteed for 12 months on workmanship.

What you get

## The outcomes that matter.

### One team for plumbing &amp; heating
If the job touches the heating or hot water, you&#x27;re not chasing two trades.

### Proper isolation as standard
We fit isolation valves on every tap and appliance, future repairs become a 10-minute job, not a house-wide shut-off.

### Tested before we leave
Every joint pressure-tested, every waste run with water, every leak chased to source, not just the obvious one.

### Honest diagnosis
If a tap just needs a £3 cartridge, we fit a cartridge. We don&#x27;t sell you a new tap.

### Clean finish
Pipework run tight to walls, clipped properly, boxed in where it should be.

### Insured to £5m
Full public liability cover, peace of mind for water-related work.

In depth

## Everything worth knowing before you book.
The details a salesperson skips. Skim it, or read every word, both are useful.

### Leaks and leak detection
Most domestic leaks are at compression joints, push-fit elbows on hot feeds, or failing tap tails. We trace from the symptom (damp patch, dripping ceiling, pressure loss) back to the source using moisture meters and thermal imaging where the leak isn&#x27;t visible, then fix at source, not at the symptom. Where the leak is under a solid floor, we&#x27;ll be honest about the trade-off between trace-and-access vs re-routing the pipe overhead.

### Taps, mixers and stopcocks
We supply and fit all major brands, Bristan, Grohe, Hansgrohe, Vado, Perrin &amp; Rowe, or fit a tap you&#x27;ve bought yourself. Old seized stopcocks under kitchen sinks are replaced with a quarter-turn ball valve so you can isolate the house in seconds in an emergency.

### Toilets and waste
Constantly running fill valves, leaking flushes, wobbly pans, slow drains and blocked soil stacks. We carry universal parts on the van for most common cisterns and can replace a full WC in a couple of hours.

### Pipework and re-pipes
Kitchen and utility refits where units are being moved, we&#x27;ll re-run the hot, cold and waste in copper or quality push-fit, clipped, tested and labelled, ready for the fitter to drop units back in.

### Outside taps and garden plumbing
Outside tap installs with internal isolation and frost protection. Drinking-water-compliant where required. Tidy through-wall finish, not a bodge through a vent brick.
