Common Questions About Plumbing

Is it urgent if my waste pipe is leaking?

Yes - even a small leak damages ceilings, walls, and floors over time. Plus constant moisture causes mould. Get it fixed soon before water damage gets expensive.

Can you fit a water softener anywhere or does it need a specific location?

Needs to go where your mains water comes in (usually near the stopcock), with access to waste (for regeneration backwash), and space for salt storage. Also needs power nearby for electric models. I'll advise on best location when I visit.

Why is pressure only low at certain taps?

If one tap has low pressure but others are fine, it's usually local to that tap - clogged aerator, partially closed isolation valve, or blockage in that specific pipe run. Much easier to fix than whole-house low pressure.

How long will my new kitchen tap last?

Quality taps last 10-15 years easily, some much longer. Cheap taps might only last 3-5 years before cartridges fail or finish wears off. Spend a bit more on the tap itself - you use it dozens of times a day, worth having something decent.

Why can't I access my water meter?

Usually the cover's buried under soil/gravel, stuck shut, broken, or there's so much water/mud in the chamber you can't see the meter. Sometimes people have paved or tarmacked over it without realizing. All fixable.

How do I know if it's just the washer?

If your tap drips constantly when it's turned off, it's almost always the washer. If it drips from the base when it's turned on, that's a different seal. Either way, I can fix it - just let me know the symptoms when you book.
