FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can you replace in the Harrogate area?
We replace a full range of domestic and light-commercial plumbing fixtures, including taps and mixers, shower valves and heads, toilets (close-coupled, back-to-wall, and wall-hung), cistern internals, kitchen and utility sinks, bath waste and overflow kits, macerator units, and outdoor taps. If you’re unsure whether your specific fixture can be replaced, just send us a photo or model number and we’ll confirm compatibility.
Do you supply genuine branded parts or aftermarket equivalents?
For every job we provide both options. We stock genuine parts from leading manufacturers such as Ideal Standard, Grohe, Hansgrohe, Bristan, and Geberit, all backed by the original manufacturer’s warranty. Where budgets are tighter or the original part is discontinued, we can offer high-quality aftermarket equivalents sourced from vetted UK suppliers. All replacement parts carry a minimum 12-month guarantee, whether OEM or aftermarket.
How quickly can you obtain and fit a replacement part in Harrogate?
Common items like tap cartridges, fill valves, or basin mixers are kept in our local van stock and can often be fitted the same day. For less common or specialist parts, we can usually source them from our Leeds distribution centre or direct from the manufacturer within 24–48 hours. Once the part arrives, we schedule installation at a time that suits you, including early mornings, evenings, or Saturdays at no extra charge.
How do I know if I need a full fixture replacement or just a repair?
Our engineers always carry out a diagnostic inspection first. If a single component (e.g., washer, cartridge, siphon) is worn, a repair is often more cost-effective. However, if the fixture shows signs of corrosion, hairline cracks, or has obsolete parts, a full replacement prevents recurring breakdowns and water wastage. We’ll explain both options, show you the price difference on site, and let you decide.
Will replacing old fixtures really save water and energy?
Absolutely. Modern dual-flush toilets use up to 60 % less water per flush compared with 1990s models. Aerated taps and thermostatic shower valves regulate flow and temperature, cutting hot-water demand by around 30 %. For many households in Harrogate, these upgrades reduce annual water bills (for metered properties) and lower gas or electricity costs linked to water heating.
Are your engineers qualified and insured to work in my home?
Yes. All engineers are City & Guilds qualified plumbers, hold Water Regulations and Unvented Hot Water certificates, and are covered by £5 million public liability insurance. We’re also members of the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE). You can request to see our credentials or insurance documents at any time, and we’ll email them before attendance for complete peace of mind.
