Expert plumbing repairs & maintenance services

WaterTight Plumbing and Electrics provides comprehensive plumbing repair and maintenance services throughout Leicestershire. With over 20 years of experience in the trade, our skilled plumbers handle all aspects of wet plumbing systems, from repairs to planned maintenance, ensuring your water systems operate reliably and efficiently.

Complete Plumbing Repair Services

Plumbing problems can cause significant disruption to your daily routine and potentially damage your property if not addressed promptly. Our experienced plumbers provide swift, professional repair services for all types of plumbing issues, from minor leaks to major system failures.

We understand that plumbing emergencies don't follow convenient schedules, which is why our repair service is designed to respond quickly to urgent problems whilst providing lasting solutions that prevent future issues. Our systematic approach ensures we identify and address the root cause of problems rather than just treating symptoms.

Burst Pipe Repair

Burst pipes represent one of the most serious plumbing emergencies, potentially causing extensive water damage if not addressed. Our service provides assistance to isolate water supplies, minimise damage, and restore your plumbing system to full operation.

We carry comprehensive repair materials and replacement components to handle most burst pipe situations during the initial call-out. Our experience with different pipe materials and joining methods ensures we can provide appropriate repairs that restore system integrity and reliability.

Tap Repairs and Replacements

Dripping taps are not only annoying but can waste significant amounts of water and increase utility bills. Our tap repair service covers all types of taps and valves, from traditional pillar taps to modern mixer units and thermostatic shower valves.

We can repair worn washers, replace faulty cartridges, and address hard water damage that affects tap operation. Where repair isn't cost-effective, we provide expert advice on suitable replacements and professional installation that ensures reliable, long-term operation.

Leak Detection and Repair

Water leaks can be difficult to locate and may cause hidden damage before becoming apparent. Our leak detection service uses professional techniques to identify the source of leaks quickly and accurately, minimising disruption to your property.

From visible pipe leaks to hidden problems within walls or under floors, we have the experience and equipment to locate and repair leaks efficiently. Our repair methods are selected to provide long-lasting solutions that prevent recurrence of the same problem.

Toilet Repairs and Maintenance

Toilet problems can cause significant inconvenience and hygiene concerns. Our toilet repair service covers all common issues including running water, poor flushing performance, leaking seals, and mechanical failures in cistern components.

We stock replacement parts for most toilet systems and can often complete repairs during the initial visit. Where replacement is more appropriate than repair, we provide expert advice on suitable modern, water-efficient alternatives.

Radiator and Heating Repairs

Our plumbing expertise extends to wet central heating systems, covering radiator repairs, valve replacements, and system balancing to ensure efficient heat distribution throughout your property. We handle leaking radiator valves, cold spots, and poor heating performance.

System balancing ensures all radiators heat effectively and can significantly improve heating efficiency whilst reducing energy costs. Our systematic approach to heating repairs addresses underlying causes rather than just immediate symptoms.

Preventive Maintenance Services

Regular plumbing maintenance helps prevent emergency breakdowns and extends the life of your plumbing systems. Our maintenance service includes system inspections, component checks, and preventive replacements before failures occur.

We provide practical advice on maintaining your plumbing systems between professional visits, including guidance on preventing frozen pipes, managing hard water effects, and recognising early warning signs of developing problems.

Water System Maintenance

Proper maintenance of water systems ensures reliable operation and helps prevent costly emergency repairs. Our maintenance service covers storage tanks, system controls, and distribution pipework to identify potential issues before they cause problems.

We check for signs of corrosion, scale buildup, and component wear that could affect system performance. Regular maintenance helps maintain water quality and system efficiency whilst preventing unexpected failures.

Plumbing Response

Plumbing emergencies require professional attention to prevent property damage and restore essential services. Our service provides assistance for serious plumbing problems including major leaks, system failures, and blocked drainage.

We understand the urgency of plumbing emergencies and work to provide prompt response times whilst maintaining professional standards and quality workmanship. Our emergency service includes temporary repairs where necessary to restore essential services quickly.

System Upgrades and Improvements

During repair and maintenance work, we often identify opportunities for system improvements that enhance reliability, efficiency, or convenience. We provide practical advice on beneficial upgrades that can prevent future problems or improve system performance.

Upgrades might include replacing old stop valves with modern quarter-turn types, installing service valves for easier maintenance, or improving pipe insulation to prevent freezing. These improvements often provide long-term benefits that justify the modest additional investment.

Water Efficiency Solutions

Our repair and maintenance service includes advice on improving water efficiency to reduce utility costs and environmental impact. We can identify and repair leaks that waste water, upgrade to water-efficient components, and provide guidance on reducing water consumption.

Simple improvements like efficient taps, dual-flush toilet mechanisms, and proper system maintenance can significantly reduce water usage whilst maintaining comfort and convenience.

Professional Diagnostics

Effective plumbing repairs require accurate diagnosis of the underlying problem. Our experienced plumbers use systematic diagnostic techniques to identify the root cause of plumbing issues rather than just addressing visible symptoms.

This thorough approach ensures repairs provide lasting solutions and helps prevent related problems from developing. Our diagnostic expertise, developed over 20+ years in the trade, enables us to resolve complex plumbing issues efficiently.

Quality Materials and Workmanship

All our repair work uses quality materials and components selected for durability and compatibility with your existing systems. We stock a comprehensive range of repair materials and replacement parts to handle most common plumbing problems during the initial visit.

Our workmanship is backed by appropriate guarantees and professional insurance. We take pride in providing repairs that restore full system operation and provide reliable, long-term performance.

Transparent Pricing and Estimates

We provide clear, upfront pricing for our repair and maintenance services with no hidden charges. Before starting work, we explain the problem, proposed solution, and associated costs, ensuring you can make informed decisions about repairs.
