Bathroom & Kitchen Leak Repair

Neat, lasting repairs for leaking toilets, showers, basins, sinks and appliance connections, without removing tiles that do not need to come out.

Overview

Small leaks in wet rooms cause big problems

Bathrooms and kitchens have more water connections packed into a small space than anywhere else in the home. A tired seal around a shower tray, a loose trap under the sink or a weeping cistern connection can leak for months behind panels and tiles before anyone notices.

By the time a stain appears on the ceiling below or a cabinet base starts to swell, the water has often spread well beyond the source. We trace it back to the exact component that failed and repair that, so you are not paying to retile a bathroom because of a five-minute fix that was never found.

What we repair in each room

Common causes

Why wet-room leaks happen

Understanding the cause matters, because the same failure often affects other fittings of the same age. We tell you if anything else is close to failing.

Failed silicone and grout

Cracked sealant around trays, baths and worktops lets splash water run into walls and floors.

Worn washers and cartridges

Internal tap and valve parts wear with every use, causing drips and leaks at the spindle.

Loose waste and trap joints

Push-fit and threaded waste joints loosen with vibration and temperature changes.

Perished flexible hoses

Rubber and braided hoses age, crack and can burst under pressure without warning.

Cistern and pan seals

Doughnut washers and pan connectors fail slowly, often showing first as a ceiling stain below.

Shower valve and tray leaks

Concealed valve joints and tray wastes leak behind the wall, where the damage stays hidden.

Every drop counts

A dripping tap is worth fixing now

A tap that drips once a second can waste thousands of litres of water a year. It also leaves limescale on basins, stains enamel and is often the first sign that a cartridge or valve seat is wearing out.

The repair is usually quick: a new washer, ceramic cartridge or valve seat. If the tap body itself is worn or corroded, we will tell you honestly whether a replacement makes more sense.

Bathroom & kitchen FAQs

Answers to common questions about wet-room leaks.

The most common causes are a failed toilet pan seal, a leaking shower tray waste, or worn sealant around the bath or shower. We test each possibility to find which one it is before any repair.

Usually not. Many leaks can be repaired from an access panel, from below, or through a small opening. If tiles must come out, we remove as few as possible and tell you before we start.

Yes, and it is a good idea. Ageing hoses on sinks, toilets and appliances are a leading cause of sudden leaks, and replacing them is quick and inexpensive.
