What plumbers can help with
Plumbers cover a wide range of plumbing tasks, from leak repairs and blocked pipes to fitting new taps, toilets and showers. Common jobs include replacing valves, fixing low pressure, clearing blockages and repairing pipework. They can also install new fixtures in kitchens or bathrooms and adjust supply lines to suit refits. If you are planning a larger change, a plumber can advise on pipe routes, shut off points and any access needs.
