FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can you replace in Lancing homes?
Our engineers can replace virtually any household or light-commercial plumbing fixture, including taps (kitchen, basin, bath and outside bibs), toilets, cisterns, shower valves, electric or mixer showers, bath filler/shower mixers, kitchen sinks, basins, utility/laundry sinks, macerators, stopcocks and isolation valves. If the item is connected to your water supply or waste pipework, we can usually remove it and fit a new, more efficient model.
How do I know when a fixture needs replacing rather than repairing?
Frequent leaks, corrosion, low water pressure, cracked ceramic, persistent limescale build-up, dated water-wasting designs and difficulty sourcing spare parts are the main signs that replacement is a better long-term option. Our plumber can inspect the fixture on site in Lancing, explain the underlying problem and provide a repair-vs-replace cost comparison so you can make an informed decision.
Do you supply the new fixtures or do I need to purchase them myself?
We offer both options. Many customers prefer us to supply because we have trade accounts with leading brands and can often secure better pricing and extended warranties. However, if you have already chosen a particular tap, shower or toilet, we are happy to install customer-supplied products as long as they meet UK plumbing standards. Simply let us know which route you’d like to take when you request your quotation.
How much does a typical fixture replacement cost in Lancing?
Prices vary with fixture type, access, pipe alterations and product specification, but as a guide: basin taps start from ÂŁ95 including labour, kitchen sink mixer taps from ÂŁ110, close-coupled toilets from ÂŁ225, and standard mixer showers from ÂŁ180. All quotes are fixed-price and include labour, standard sundries, thorough testing and VAT. We always provide a written estimate before work begins so there are no surprises.
Will you dispose of my old fittings and leave the work area clean?
Yes. Responsible disposal is included in every replacement job. We remove old ceramics, metal taps and packaging, segregate recyclable materials and transport the waste to a licensed facility. During the visit we protect surrounding surfaces, use dust sheets and vacuum afterwards, leaving your bathroom or kitchen clean and ready for use.
Are your plumbers qualified and insured to work in my property?
Absolutely. All fixture replacements are carried out by City & Guilds-qualified plumbers who are fully insured with ÂŁ5 million public liability cover. We follow Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) guidelines and local Southern Water by-laws, and all workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. You can rest assured your Lancing property is in safe, professional hands.
