How fast can you reach a leak in Basildon?

It depends on distance and availability at the time. Phone first — we'll tell you honestly when we can attend and talk you through stopping the water.

Will my home insurance cover the repair?

That depends on your policy — ask your insurer. We can provide photos and a written description of the work we carry out.

Can you find a leak I can't see?

We start with non-invasive checks. Depending on where the leak is, investigation may then need access to pipework, which we'll explain before doing anything.

Do you charge a call-out fee in Basildon?

No call-out fee. There's a minimum charge of £90 for most small jobs in working hours, plus parts, and we confirm the price before starting.

"Frank and Steve were able to come out the next day and clear a blockage on my shower and install a new mixer shower valve for me. They took time to diagnose the problem and even came out on a Sunday which I very much appreciated. Very well priced and excellent value for money. Will definitely use them again for any plumbing needs in the future."
