What a plumber does
Plumbers work with copper, plastic and flexible pipe, and usually carry common fittings. A bigger job such as a new cylinder or a bathroom move may need a second visit to collect parts.
Jobs people often ask plumbers to do:
- Fitting a new sink, basin, bath or shower
- Clearing blocked sinks, baths and drains
- Fitting an outside tap
- Replacing a hot water cylinder
- Moving or extending pipework for a new bathroom
Before you book a plumber
- Gas work, such as fitting or servicing a boiler, must be done by someone on the Gas Safe Register. Ask to see the card and check the number on the register. Not every plumber does gas work.
- Find your stopcock before you need it. If a pipe fails, turning the water off at the stopcock limits the damage while you wait.
- Ask what happens if the fix does not hold. A good tradesperson will tell you plainly whether work is guaranteed and for how long.
- Ask if the plumber carries public liability insurance. It is a normal question and an honest answer takes a few seconds.
