Excellent service for a very reasonable price. Did a really good job finding and successfully repairing a leak in our water supply pipe. He was helpful, pleasant and apologetic following a delay arriving later than planned.

Survey

Water Supply & Pipework Reviews From Customers in Sheffield
Real reviews from our customers, including water supply and pipework jobs.
Fantastic service and top bloke, had severe blockage, he came in no time at all and did some well needed repairs to the pipe work, afterwards sealed everything off and recommended some piping that required replacing in the future.
Top plumber would very much recommend!
Can’t recommend Billy enough. His work is exceptional, used all copper pipe like a proper old school plumber (none of that plastic push-fit nonesense) and it was really neat. He also helped me to configure my new bathroom to make the most of the space and it looks great. Very reasonably priced too
Very prompt attention and a willingness to tackle a job that other plumbers turned down. Pricing was fair and the work was completed quickly and effectively. Recommended.

Water Mains & Lead Pipe FAQs – Sheffield & South Yorkshire
Answers to the questions customers ask before booking.
Who is responsible for the water supply pipe?
Usually, the water company is responsible for the pipe up to your property boundary or outside stop tap, and the homeowner is responsible for the supply pipe from there into the house. Check with your water company if you’re not sure.
How do I know if I have lead pipes?
Lead pipes are most common in older homes. Look at the pipe where it comes in near your stopcock: lead is dull grey, soft, and shows a shiny silver colour if lightly scratched. It isn’t magnetic.
Why should I replace lead pipes?
Lead can get into drinking water, especially water that has been sitting in the pipes. Replacing lead pipework removes that risk.
What is moling?
Moling is a way of laying a new pipe underground without digging a full trench. A small pit is dug at each end and a tool pushes the new pipe through the ground between them. Whether it’s suitable depends on the ground and the route.
Will a new supply pipe improve my water pressure?
Old, narrow or corroded supply pipes can restrict the flow of water into your home, so replacing them can help. We check your pressure and flow before and after the work.
Do you charge for call-outs?
No. We never charge for call-outs, and we offer free estimates.
