About this service
Plumbing maintenance in Kingston upon Thames for homes and rental properties
A yearly maintenance visit checks your stopcock, isolation valves, flexible hoses, exposed pipework and water pressure — the handful of things most likely to fail unexpectedly — and replaces anything on its way out before it actually goes. It's the cheapest way we know to avoid an emergency call-out altogether.
What a maintenance visit covers
Stopcock test, isolation valve check, flexible hose condition, a 30-minute leak and meter test, a water pressure reading, and a look at the pipe lagging in the loft. You get a written list of anything that needs attention, with a fixed price for each item.
For landlords and letting agents
A plumbing check between tenancies, or alongside the annual gas safety visit, catches the slow leaks and seized stopcocks that tenants rarely report. See landlord gas safety certificates to book both together.
Before winter
Autumn is the best time: we check loft and outside pipework is lagged, outside taps can be isolated, and the stopcock actually turns, before the first freeze tests them for you.

Frequently asked
Plumbing maintenance FAQs
What does a plumbing maintenance visit actually cover?
Stopcock test, isolation valve check, flexi-hose condition, a 30-minute leak/meter test, pipe lagging check in the loft, and a written report of anything that needs attention — with fixed-price options for any work found.
How often should plumbing be checked?
Once a year suits most homes. Older properties, rentals and homes that have had a leak before benefit most.
Can you combine it with a boiler service or gas safety check?
Yes. Booking them in the same visit saves a second appointment, which is useful for rental properties where access has to be arranged with tenants.
Do you work with landlords and letting agents?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly if you prefer and send the written report to you or your agent afterwards.
