How It Works

1

Describe the problem

Tell us which tap or shower, what's happening, and the type (mixer, pillar, electric). This helps us bring the right parts on the first visit.

2

Attend and inspect

We check the tap or shower to confirm the fault — washer, cartridge, valve, or pressure issue.

3

Repair or replace

Most tap repairs take 20–45 minutes. Shower valve replacements take 1–2 hours depending on access.

4

Test thoroughly

We run the tap or shower at full pressure to confirm the repair is watertight and the pressure is correct.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fix any brand of tap or shower?
We work on all common brands — Grohe, Hansgrohe, Bristan, Triton, Mira, Aqualisa, and most DIY brands. Bring the brand and model if you know it — it helps us source parts faster.
Is a dripping tap worth fixing?
Absolutely. A tap dripping once per second wastes around 15,000 litres a year and adds to your water bill. Most tap repairs cost far less than the wasted water.
My shower has low pressure — can you fix that?
It depends on the cause. Lime scale in the head is a simple clean or replace. Low incoming pressure is a different problem. We'll diagnose which and quote accordingly.
Can you replace my tap with a different style?
Yes — provided the new tap suits the sink or basin hole configuration. We can advise on compatible options when we visit.
How long does a tap or shower repair take?
Most tap repairs — washer replacement, ceramic cartridge swap, or monobloc cartridge replacement — take 30–60 minutes. Shower valve replacements take 1–2 hours. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when you describe the fault.
My electric shower keeps cutting out — what's causing it?
Electric shower cut-out is usually caused by the thermal cut-out tripping due to overheating, which is common when limescale builds up on the heating element — particularly in hard water areas like Northampton. It could also be a failing heating element or thermostat. We'll diagnose whether it's repairable or needs replacement.
