Our Work
Every job in Gorton and across Greater Manchester is completed to the same high standard — clean, efficient, and guaranteed.




We trace the source and fix the root cause — not just the symptom.
Water escaping around or through the overflow fitting — usually a worn seal or poor original installation.
Leaking plug hole, waste pipe, or P-trap beneath the bath. Often causes damage to the floor or ceiling below.
Failed silicone sealant along the bath edge allows water to seep behind tiles and into the wall or floor.
Dripping bath taps or leaking mixer shower adding water to the bath surround or behind the panel.
Water trapped behind the bath panel, often from splashing or a hidden pipe joint failure.
Hairline cracks in older baths allowing water to weep into the subfloor — requires bath replacement.
Traced and fixed on the first visit — Gorton area.
Call or WhatsApp and we'll advise if it's urgent and agree a visit time — same day in most cases.
We lift the bath panel, test the waste, check the overflow, taps, and sealant to pinpoint the source.
We repair or replace the faulty component — waste trap, overflow, tap washer, or reseal the bath edge.
Full water test to confirm the repair is watertight before we leave.
Advice on signs to watch for and when to re-seal your bath to avoid future leaks.

Searches we help with in Gorton
Gorton is a diverse inner-east Manchester neighbourhood with a rich history and a housing stock that reflects its development across multiple eras. Victorian terraces line the streets closest to the Monastery, while the outer residential areas are dominated by 1960s council semis — many now privately owned. Our engineers know the differences between these eras' plumbing systems intimately: the solid copper pipework of Victorian properties versus the gravity-fed cylinders of the council era, and the right approach to repairing each. We offer genuinely fair pricing in Gorton and respond quickly to emergency calls.
Our engineers see these issues regularly in M18 properties. Understanding the area lets us diagnose and fix problems faster than an engineer visiting for the first time.
Gorton's mix of Victorian terraces and 1960s council housing creates two very different plumbing challenges in the same postcode — older lead and iron pipework versus corroded galvanised systems
Many ex-council semis in M18 have never had the original gravity hot water system updated, resulting in poor hot water pressure
Hyde Road corridor properties experience higher drain blockage frequency due to older shared sewer connections with limited access
