Plumbing repairs in Reading and Berkshire
A dripping tap, toilet that keeps running or a small leak under the sink can become a daily nuisance. Send me a photo and a description, and I’ll arrange the right person from our team to assess the repair.

Common jobs
What you can ask us to help with
Toilets, basins and sinks
Running toilets, flush problems, sink wastes and traps, with the existing fittings checked before a repair or replacement is agreed.
Bathroom and kitchen maintenance
Small plumbing jobs alongside bathroom resealing, fitting and finishing. Send the whole repair list so we can plan the visit together.
Getting the job right
A photo helps us see what needs attention
Send a close-up of the problem and a wider picture showing the fitting and any accessible pipework. Tell me whether it is leaking all the time or only when used, and if you have already bought a replacement part.
If the repair also needs silicone, grout or trim work, mention it in the same message. We can discuss the plumbing and the finishing together.

Questions
Questions about plumbing repairs
Do you have a plumber on the team?
Yes. I coordinate a small team that includes plumbers as well as handymen, painters and decorators, and carpenters. I’ll discuss the problem and arrange the right person for the work.
Can I book a small leak or a dripping tap repair?
Yes, for suitable accessible repairs. Send photos and a description first so we can check access, the fitting and any parts needed.
Do you offer emergency or boiler repairs?
This service is for booked small plumbing repairs. We do not offer a 24-hour emergency call-out through this service, and gas, boiler and specialist heating work need a suitable specialist.
How much will a plumbing repair cost?
Send the details for a quote. The £60 starting price covers handyman or painting and decorating work up to an hour; plumbing is priced for the repair, access and parts needed. Travel is included within our listed service area and no VAT is added.
