Plumbers in Merton

In our experience, the most common domestic plumbing issues for local residents in Merton are a running toilet, blocked drains, water heater issues, and leaky pipes/taps. Burst pipes are also common.

Some plumbing issues are not immediately obvious because the signs can be silent for a while. If you suddenly start getting higher water bills but your water usage habits have not changed a tad bit, that’s a red flag that needs to be investigated.

Low pressure could also be an indication of an underlying plumbing problem. Other signs to watch out for include rattling pipes, dirty water, and the sink draining slowly.

The plumbing system in your home should be checked by a professional emergency plumber once a year. This way you can identify hidden issues and have them fixed in due time before they get the chance to cause collateral damage.

If you live in a new apartment building, you probably don’t need to worry about your pipes, as they can last for many years. For instance, the lifespan of copper is 70-80 years, that of cast iron is 80-100 years; the same applies to galvanised steel.

In contrast, PVC pipes hold up to 24-45 years only. Having said that, if your property is quite old, you surely want to investigate what material was used for the piping system and act accordingly. You can hire a regular or an emergency plumber to do the trick.

Upgrading your pipes is a good idea when you have had them installed for several decades now. This will prevent plumbing emergencies such as leaks and blockages. Prevention means you can stop a minor issue from becoming a serious complication that affects your daily life and blows your budget.
