Lasting repairs for cracked, corroded and failed pipework, and section replacement when an old line is no longer worth patching.
A pipe rarely fails without a reason. Corrosion, poor original jointing, high water pressure, movement and age all play a part. Patching the visible damage without understanding the cause usually means another leak a short distance away a few months later.
Before we repair, we look at the condition of the surrounding pipe, the material, the fittings and the system pressure. Then we recommend the most sensible option: a targeted repair where the line is sound, or a replacement section where it is not. Either way, the finished work is pressure tested before the water goes back on.
Repairs must suit the existing system. Mixing incompatible materials or fittings is a common cause of repeat leaks, so we match every repair to what is already installed.
Durable and common on hot and cold lines. We repair with compression or soldered fittings and check nearby pipe for pinhole corrosion.
Heat-fused polypropylene used in many modern installations. Repairs are fusion welded for a seamless, strong joint that matches the original.
Lightweight plastic pipe for supply and waste lines. We replace cracked sections and failed solvent-welded joints with matching fittings.
Found in older properties and prone to internal corrosion. We repair where it is sensible and advise honestly when replacement will save money.
Every repair follows the same careful sequence, so nothing is rushed and nothing is left untested.
We shut off the relevant supply, drain the line and protect floors and furniture around the work area.
The damaged section is exposed with minimal disturbance and the surrounding pipe is checked for further wear.
The failed pipe or fitting is cut out and replaced with materials that match your system.
The repair is pressure tested, every joint is inspected and the supply is restored once it holds.
We tidy the area, show you the finished work and send photos with any aftercare advice.
A stop valve you cannot turn is a problem waiting to happen. When a leak starts, you need to isolate the water in seconds, not search for a tool that fits. We replace seized, leaking or corroded valves on the main supply, branch lines and individual fixtures.
Once the new valves are in, we label them clearly and show everyone in the household where they are and how they work, so you are ready if anything goes wrong in future.

Often, yes. If the damage is limited to a joint, fitting or short section and the rest of the pipe is sound, a targeted repair is the right answer. We only recommend replacement when the surrounding pipe is likely to fail too.
Most repairs on accessible pipework are completed within a few hours. Concealed pipes or section replacements take longer, and we give you a realistic timeframe with the quote.
Usually not. We isolate only the affected part of the system where possible, and the supply is restored as soon as the repair has passed its pressure test.
Yes. We locate the leak precisely first, open only the small area needed for access, complete the repair and leave the opening clean and ready for making good.
Let us assess the whole run and recommend a repair that will actually last.
