All of it. Our engineers work across every Sheffield postcode from S1 in the city centre out to S36 at Stocksbridge, taking in the northern suburbs, the east end, the south of the city and the western side towards the Peak District. We have a page for each of the areas listed above, and we also cover the surrounding towns — see where we work for the full picture.

Everything domestic: leaks and burst pipes, blocked drains and waste pipes, toilets, taps, stopcocks and valves, hot water and pressure problems, outside taps, and full bathroom and kitchen plumbing. Because we are also a heating and gas business, we can pick up boiler, radiator and underfloor work on the same visit rather than handing you to another trade.

As a rule of thumb: if water is escaping and you cannot stop it, if a ceiling or electrics are getting wet, if you have no water at all, or if you have no heating during cold weather and there is someone vulnerable in the house, treat it as an emergency and call straight away. A dripping tap, a slow drain or a toilet that runs on can usually be booked in normally. Our emergency plumbing page covers the out-of-hours side in more detail.

In most Sheffield homes the internal stopcock is under the kitchen sink, though in older terraces it can be in a cellar head, under the stairs, in a downstairs cloakroom or beneath a floor hatch near the front of the property. There is usually an external one under a small cover in the pavement or path outside too. It is worth finding yours and checking it turns before you ever need it — a seized stopcock turns a small leak into a big one.

Sheffield is a hilly city and a lot of housing sits on high ground, so incoming mains pressure varies a good deal from one suburb to the next. Weak upstairs flow is usually down to that, an old gravity-fed tank system, partially closed or furred-up valves, or narrow original pipework that has silted up over the decades. We will measure what is actually arriving at the property before recommending anything, rather than assuming a pump is the answer.

Regularly. Much of Sheffield's inner housing is Victorian, Edwardian or inter-war, and those properties often carry a patchwork of pipe materials and sizes added over the years, sometimes buried in solid walls or under suspended timber floors. We use non-invasive leak detection wherever possible so we lift as few boards and cut into as little plaster as we can.

Yes. Alongside domestic work we look after rented property for landlords and agents, and we handle commercial heating and industrial plumbing across the city. Get in touch and we will talk through what the property needs.
