Urgent Plumbing Repairs: Our Work
These are our own job photos. The Stockport pipe shown above was damaged while floorboards were being refitted. We replaced the damaged section and restored the water supply during that same-day callout.
Ceiling damage from a copper pipe leak
A collapsed kitchen ceiling led us to a pinhole leak in the copper pipework above. We replaced the full accessible length of copper pipe. The photos show the damage and the small leak that caused it.
Disconnected pipe above a ceiling
We opened a section of plasterboard ceiling to trace the leak and found a plastic pipe had come out of its fitting. An installation fault was suspected. We carried out the replacement work and tested it on completion.

The right repair depends on the fault, the condition of the fittings and what can be accessed.
Split copper pipe in a garage
Cold weather and insufficient lagging had caused this pipe to split. We removed and replaced the damaged section, then lagged it. The photo shows the split in the old pipe.
Leaking washing machine standpipe
A utility area leak at a Wilburn Basin apartment was traced to loose standpipe fittings. We repaired the leak. The photo shows the waste pipework and the surrounding area.
Toilet leaking when flushed
A corroded close-coupling kit and doughnut washer were causing water to escape when the toilet was flushed. We replaced both and restored the toilet to working order. The photo shows the old components.

How quickly can you attend?
Call with your postcode and a description of the problem. We will confirm our current availability and discuss attendance. Timing depends on your location, our workload and the nature of the fault.
What should I do if a pipe has burst?
If it is safe to reach, turn off the internal stop tap to help limit a supply pipe leak. Keep clear of water near electrics and call for help. Do not touch wet electrical equipment.
Can you investigate water coming through a ceiling?
Yes. We investigate plumbing leaks above ceilings and explain the access and repair needed. An opening may be necessary to reach concealed pipework. Ceiling repairs and decoration should be agreed separately.
Do you deal with leaking or faulty toilets?
Yes. We repair toilet leaks, flushing faults and cistern problems. If the toilet is blocked or water escapes when it is used, describe what happens when you call.
Can a burst pipe be repaired during the first visit?
Some can, once the fault is accessible and suitable parts are available. Other jobs need further access, parts or additional work. We will explain what is required after assessing the problem.
How much does an emergency plumber cost?
The cost depends on the fault, access, time and parts needed. Call with the details so we can discuss the visit and costs before work proceeds.
