Aldershot grew up around the Army. The camp arrived in 1854, and terraced streets went up quickly to house soldiers' families and the trades that served them. Many of those Victorian and Edwardian homes still line the streets around the town centre and North Town. After more than a century of alterations, their pipework is often a mix of copper, old iron and plastic, so a good plumber will trace the runs before cutting in. If your home was built before about 1970, it may still have a lead supply pipe between the stop tap and the street. Your plumber can tell you, and South East Water can advise on replacing its section.
At the other end of the scale is Wellesley, the new neighbourhood on former Army land north of the town centre, with planning consent for 3,850 homes. New homes bring their own plumbing jobs: unvented hot water cylinders that manufacturers recommend servicing every year, pressure and temperature problems on newer systems, and snagging faults that may still be covered by the developer's warranty. Check your warranty before you book a repair, so you don't pay for something the builder should put right.
South East Water supplies Aldershot, and the water is hard. Limescale is behind many local plumbing calls: shower valves that stick, cartridge taps that drip, and cylinders and immersion heaters that slowly lose efficiency. You can check the hardness for your postcode on South East Water's website.
Common plumbing jobs in Aldershot include:
- Fixing dripping taps and replacing worn cartridges.
- Repairing leaks under sinks and baths, or behind the toilet.
- Replacing running toilet cistern parts.
- Servicing unvented hot water cylinders in newer homes.
- Emergency call-outs for burst or frozen pipes in winter.
When choosing a plumber, ask for a written quote that says whether parts are included and how extra time is charged. Check whether there's a call-out fee or a minimum charge, and how long the work is guaranteed for. For anything involving your boiler or gas supply, use a Gas Safe registered engineer. Reviews on Trade Pilot are tied to real, invoiced jobs, so you can see what a plumber has done for other homeowners before you invite them round.

Check your new-home warranty first. Faults in the first couple of years are often the developer's responsibility, so report them to the builder before paying a plumber. For anything outside the warranty, post your job as normal.
Only if they're Gas Safe registered. Any work on a gas boiler must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer, so check the Gas Safe ID card before work starts.
Turn off the water at the stop tap, switch off electrics near the leak if it's safe, open the cold taps to drain the system, and call a plumber. Our guide on burst pipes explains the first steps.
