Leak repairs in Ashford
From a slow drip under the kitchen sink to a visible leak on copper pipework, we trace the cause and put it right tidily. Ashford homes often have a mix of copper, plastic push-fit and older lead-tail fittings, so we work carefully with the right materials for each. Most domestic leaks can be sorted in a single visit because we carry the common washers, cartridges, compression and push-fit fittings, isolation valves and radiator valves in the van.
Learn moreTap and toilet repairs
Dripping taps, weak flushes, running cisterns, slow fills and leaking overflow pipes are the most common calls we take in Ashford. Hard water wears out ceramic cartridges and rubber washers faster than people expect, so re-washing or swapping the cartridge usually does the job. We carry common fill valves, flush mechanisms and syphons so most toilet issues can be sorted on the first visit.
Learn moreKitchen and bathroom plumbing
If you're upgrading a kitchen mixer, swapping a basin tap, fitting a new shower mixer or sorting out a tired bath waste, we can take care of the plumbing side neatly. We focus on repairs, replacements and small upgrades rather than full bathroom installs, so you can pick the fittings you'd like and we'll fit them properly with sensible isolation valves and tidy pipework.
Learn moreRadiator valves and heating pipework
We replace leaking, seized or noisy radiator valves, remove and refit radiators for decorating, and carry out small heating pipework alterations across Ashford. After a valve change we balance the radiator so it heats evenly. We don't carry out work on the gas side of the boiler unless undertaken by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
Learn moreWater softeners and hard water advice
Ashford is firmly in a hard water area, and limescale steadily damages taps, showers, cylinders and heat exchangers. We advise on, supply and install water softeners, conditioners and filtration to suit your home — including a drinking-water bypass so the kitchen cold tap stays unsoftened if you prefer. We'll look at access, drainage and pipework before quoting.
Learn moreAppliance connections
Washing machines, dishwashers and fridge water connections — we'll fit modern lever isolation valves, secure the fill and waste hoses properly, and tidy up any tired pipework while we're there. We can attend just before or after a delivery so your new appliance is plumbed in safely the first time you use it.
