Types of Pipe We Repair
Whatever type of pipework you have we can repair it properly.
Copper Pipe Repair
The standard pipework in most UK homes. We repair copper pipe with soldered joints, compression fittings and push fit connectors. If a length is damaged we cut it out and replace it with new copper.
Plastic Pipe Repair
Modern push fit and compression plastic pipework used in newer homes. We repair with compatible push fit fittings, inserts and new pipe sections. Speedfit, Hep2O and JG Speedfit systems.
Lead Pipe Repair
Older properties may still have lead pipework. We can repair or replace lead pipes. Replacement with MDPE or copper is recommended for drinking water supplies. Lead is no longer used or permitted for new pipework.
MDPE Pipe Repair
The blue MDPE pipe used for underground mains water supplies. We repair with compression couplings and insert stiffeners. If the pipe is damaged in multiple places replacement may be more cost effective.
Steel and Iron Pipe Repair
Threaded steel and iron pipework found in older heating systems and commercial premises. We repair with threaded fittings, couplings and adaptors.
Flexible Hose Repair
Braided flexible hoses on taps, toilets and appliances that have split, kinked or leaked. We replace the hose with a new one and fit a service valve for easy future isolation.

Pipe Repair FAQs
Common questions about pipe repairs
How do you repair a leaking copper pipe?
We isolate the affected section, drain the water from the pipe, cut out the damaged section and replace it with a new piece of copper using soldered joints, compression fittings or push fit connectors. The repair is tested under full pressure.
Can you repair a pipe inside a wall?
Yes. We locate the damaged section precisely, make the minimum access opening needed, repair the pipe and advise on making good. We try to keep the opening as small as possible.
How long does a pipe repair take?
A straightforward pipe repair on an accessible section takes thirty minutes to an hour. Repairs in walls, under floors or underground take longer because access is more involved.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipes?
Pinhole leaks are usually caused by corrosion from acidic water, flux residue left inside the pipe when it was installed, or electrolysis from dissimilar metals touching. A pinhole leak is a sign the pipe is thinning and may need replacing.
Can you replace lead pipes?
Yes. We replace lead pipework with copper or MDPE. Lead pipes on drinking water supplies should be replaced as lead can leach into the water. The water company is responsible for the supply pipe up to your boundary.
Do you guarantee pipe repairs?
Yes. All pipe repairs come with our workmanship guarantee. The repair itself and the surrounding connections are tested and guaranteed leak free.
