What causes a blocked drain when comparing options?
Blockages can be caused by grease, hair, wipes or scale build up. a plumber can clear the blockage and check whether there is a deeper issue in the pipework. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
Can you fix a running toilet?

Do you replace shower valves or mixers?
Many plumbers can replace shower valves and mixers. The job depends on access to pipework and the type of unit installed. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
Can you install a dishwasher or washing machine?
Yes. a plumber can connect the water supply and waste safely, and check for leaks after installation. Ask what is included, how long the work may take, and what happens if extra issues appear.
What if pipes are in the wall when comparing options?
