Kitchen plumbing
Help with kitchen sinks, taps, leaks, drains, and plumbing changes during upgrades.

The kitchen is the hardest-working plumbing zone in any home. Between the sink, dishwasher, washing machine connections, and sometimes a fridge water line or gas hob, kitchen plumbing handles more daily use — and more potential problems — than almost any other part of the house. When a kitchen drain blocks, a tap leaks, or a dishwasher refuses to drain, it disrupts the entire household routine.
Common kitchen plumbing problems include blocked sink drains from fat, oil, and food particles building up in the waste pipe, leaking mixer taps that need cartridge or O-ring replacement, dishwasher and washing machine hoses that leak at the connection point or fail internally, low water pressure caused by clogged aerators or partially closed angle valves, and bad smells from decomposing debris in the trap or a blocked vent pipe. Many of these start small — a slight drip, a slower drain — and become bigger, more expensive problems when ignored.

Whether it is fixing a leaking sink tap, clearing a blocked kitchen drain, connecting a new dishwasher, or installing a complete new sink and mixer, the work is done properly — no leaks, no shortcuts, and a kitchen that works.
