Leaks and urgent repairs

Burst and leaking pipes, dripping taps, running toilets, blocked sinks and drains, and low water pressure.

Bathrooms and fittings

Bathroom and shower room installations, new taps, toilets and basins, outside taps and appliance connections.

Hot water and heating pipework

Radiator replacements, power flushes, hot water cylinders and immersion heaters. Gas boiler work needs a Gas Safe registered engineer.

Most plumbing problems start small: a dripping tap, a toilet that won’t stop running, or a damp patch under the sink. Fixing them early is usually quick and cheap. Leaving them can mean water damage, higher bills and a bigger repair later.

Trade Pilot helps you find a plumber near you without phoning round. Describe the job once, and up to 3 vetted plumbers who cover your postcode can quote. Reviews on Trade Pilot are tied to real, invoiced jobs, so you’re reading about work that was actually done and paid for.

To get useful quotes, say what’s wrong, where it is and how long it’s been happening. A photo of the leak, tap or pipework helps. For a new bathroom or a bigger job, give rough room sizes and say whether you’ve already bought the fittings.

When quotes arrive, check whether there’s a call-out fee or a minimum charge, whether parts are included and how extra time is charged. For larger jobs, ask how long the work is guaranteed for.

Plumbing and gas are different trades. Any work on a gas boiler, cooker or fire must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer, so don’t DIY it, and check the engineer’s Gas Safe ID card before they start. If you need boiler work, post it under gas and boiler engineers instead.

It’s worth knowing where your stop tap is before you need it. It’s often under the kitchen sink or near where the water pipe comes into the house.

Posting a job is free, and you don’t have to accept any quote.
