Plumbing Repairs and Leak Detection in Old Harlow

A leak or a failed fitting in Old Harlow gets the same approach as anywhere in the Harlow area: trace it, price it, fix it, from £90. We are around 40 minutes away. The very hard water at 390 ppm and the 82% of homes running gas heating mean we carry the parts local plumbing needs.

Dripping taps, running toilets, showers that have lost pressure, damp patches that keep coming back, and water heaters that have gone cold are the everyday plumbing repairs we do across Essex. We also trace leaks that are not obvious, under floors, behind bath panels or inside walls.

The engineer looks at the fault, tells you what is wrong and what the repair costs, then fixes it. Leak detection starts with the meter and the visible pipework and works inward; we do not lift floors until the evidence points there. Common repairs such as tap cartridges, toilet syphons and ball valves are carried on the van.

Call-out and most plumbing repairs start from £90, including leak detection, pipe repair, tap installation or repair, toilet installation or repair, shower installation or repair and water heater repair. Family run, based in Bowers Gifford, with more than 40 years in the trade.
