Toilet, Tap & Shower Repairs
A broken toilet, a leaking tap, or a shower that's stopped working isn't just inconvenient — it can mean water damage, rising bills, or a bathroom you can't use at all. The longer these problems sit, the worse they get. Water finds its way into floors, ceilings, and walls fast, and what starts as a small drip can turn into a much bigger repair bill. If something in your bathroom is leaking, blocked, or broken right now, don't wait it out — get it looked at straight away.
Common Issues We Help Customers With
Toilets that won't stop running or won't flush properly
Blocked or overflowing toilets
Leaking or dripping taps (kitchen and bathroom)
Taps that won't turn on/off, or are stuck or seized
Showers with no hot water, low pressure, or sudden temperature changes
Electric showers that trip the fuse box or won't switch on
Water pooling around the base of a toilet, tap, or shower tray
Visible water damage, damp patches, or ceiling stains below a bathroom
Strange noises, banging pipes, or unusual smells near fittings
If you're dealing with any of the above, it's worth getting it checked before it escalates.

A Word on Safety
Please do not attempt to repair electric showers, wiring, or any fitting connected to the electrical supply yourself. Electric showers are wired directly into your home's electrical system, and working on them without the right training and isolation equipment can be extremely dangerous. If you notice sparking, burning smells, a tripped fuse box that won't reset, or any exposed wiring, switch off the electrics at the fuse board if it's safe to do so, and avoid using the shower until a qualified electrician or engineer has inspected it.
Similarly, if you have a serious leak, locate your stopcock and turn off your water supply if you're able to do so safely, then get in touch. Don't attempt to dismantle pipework, cisterns, or valves yourself if you're unsure — a small mistake can turn a manageable leak into a major one.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. My toilet won't stop running — is this urgent?
Yes. A constantly running toilet wastes water and can indicate a failing valve or seal. It's not usually dangerous, but it should be sorted quickly to avoid wasted water and higher bills.
2. My electric shower has stopped working. Can I check it myself?
No. Electric showers are connected to your mains electricity supply. Do not open the unit or attempt any repairs yourself. Get it checked by a qualified engineer.
3. There's water coming through my ceiling from the bathroom above. What should I do?
Turn off the water supply at the stopcock if you can do so safely, avoid using the affected bathroom, and contact us straight away. This is a genuine emergency and shouldn't wait.
4. Is a dripping tap really worth calling about?
Yes. A drip that seems minor can waste a significant amount of water over time and often signals a worn washer or valve that will only get worse.
5. My shower has low pressure but the taps work fine. What's the cause?
This can be down to several things, from a blocked shower head to a fault with the shower unit itself. It's best diagnosed by a professional rather than guessed at.
6. How quickly can I get help?
Get in touch and let us know what's happening — we'll aim to arrange the right support as quickly as possible based on the urgency of your issue.
