If your shower plumbing is only running at one temperature or is fluctuating from hot to cold, I can fault find, and repair.
If the manufacturer is not known, then removing the cartridge and taking a photo will help with tracing thermostatic cartridges valves.
Shower booster pump installation, upgrading of old bathroom taps and showers, shower heads and wall rail kits are an easy fix.
I keep a van stock of parts for the most common toilet repairs , whether your cistern is a modern push button or the traditional handle operated type.
Problems householders encounter range from constant running of water into the wc pan or externally via an overflow pipe, slow filling of wc cistern, leaks between wc cisterns and wc pans, and leaks on the wc pan drainage outlet pipes.
Give Tony a call...07831 623711 It's easily fixed! Replacing ballvalves, float valves, flush valves, doughnut washers and close couple plumbing kits.
I am able to clear blocked domestic plumbing waste pipes ( sinks, showers, bath and basins) with the aid of our small hand held electric drain clearing machines.
This machine can clear blockages by sending down the waste pipe a 6m steel spring which rotates at a fast rate and gradually makes a path through the blockage/s.
Blockages further than 6 metres or within the main sewers or manholes will require a Drainage company to visit site.
Blockages are excluded from my 12 month workmanship guarantee.
Having a troublesome tap constantly dripping or causing a water hammer noise?
The solution is a good service of a re-washer and re-grease or a replacement valve. I would need to shut the water supply down and check if I have the replacement on van stock. If not I would need to order online for the correct type.
Ever wanted that sink mixer with pull out spray attachment, well you can...
This mixer tap works well on a high pressure mains water system, matching the correct type of taps to your plumbing system is very important, as the incorrect type can lead to noisy plumbing or poor performance out of the tap.
Low pressure tank water supply

High pressure mains water systems have become the norm, Low pressure tanks have been removed to save space in the loft area, and I see less now.
Working on some older type plumbing systems can be a challenge. Knowing how these systems work and what fittings to utilise are all within my scope.
Figure F6, shows a direct mains water distribution system, supplying a modern boiler and giving hot and cold mains pressure at all the appliances.
Good points include:-
1, Higher pressure showering.
2, Loft area free of plumbing.
3, Easier to install and maintain.
Bad points include:-
1, No reservoir of water if mains failure in street.
2, Noisy if low pressure fittings are still in use.
3, Slight risk of leaky joints.
The Second household shows mains water supplying only the drinking water at the sink and storage cisterns in the loft. The hot and cold distribution at low pressure via tank fed pipe work.
Good points include:-
1, A reserve of water is still available if the mains fails.
2, A Balanced pressure of hot and cold mixer fittings.
Bad points include:-
1, Risk of contamination of the storage cisterns.
2, Frost damage of pipe work and cisterns in loft.
3, The physical space required of additional cisterns and pipe work.
