Frequently asked questions

What should I do if I have a leaking pipe?

First, turn off the main water supply to minimise damage. Then, call us so we can assess the issue and make professional repairs as soon as possible.

How long does it take to replace a hot water cylinder?

It usually takes a few hours, but time can vary based on factors like system complexity and cylinder type. We’ll provide a clear timeline and ensure minimal disruption.

What is a ball valve, and why does it need repair?

A ball valve regulates water flow in your tank or cistern. Over time, it can wear out or fail, leading to overflows or leaks. Repairing or replacing it prevents wasteful water leaks and potential property damage.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My immersion heater was not releasing water to my hot taps. I rang Zak because of his great reviews. He arrived at the time we had agreed, his friendly and professional attitude were excellent. He was efficient in his task, and gave good advice to solve my problem. Half an hour later, I have hot water again, and at a better than fair cost. I am extremely pleased with Zak's service and would not hesitate to hire again. If there's anyone better out there, I would be very surprised.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zac showed up when he promised to and provided unambiguous advice leading to the replacement of a boiler and hot water cylinder - which were obviously on the way out!  The work was done promptly after acceptance of his quote, and Zac cleaned up afterward.  His singing is an acquired taste tho'  :-)
I've no hesitation in recommending Zac for plumbing & heating issues.

Great service from Zac, told him on Friday we had a strong oil smell coming from central heating and he came first thing the next day to fix this and got all our radiators working again! Won’t be using anyone else moving forwards

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zac came to replace my faulty boiler, we just moved in and it was needed - he was very helpful in selecting for our sized home.  When fitting the boiler, Zac was professional, efficient, knowledgeable and clearly experienced.  He is a tidy worker, and takes great pride in his work.  I have no hesitation in recommending him and his work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fault with our boiler today and had to call Zac. He was so helpful and tried to help solve the problem over the phone, however, did need to come out and fix the problem. He explained what he was doing and was very friendly and helpful. Would recommend and will use again if needed.
