Leak repair
A stain on a ceiling is the end of the story rather than the start of it. Water runs along a joist until it finds a seam, so the failure is usually upstream of the mark, sometimes by several feet.
Water travels along joists and follows pipe runs before it ever comes through a ceiling. The wet patch shows you where it left the building, not where it started. Finding the start is most of the job.
The work
Four services
II
Drain cleaning
A drain that gurgles is telling you about the vent, not the clog. If air cannot get in behind the water, the trap siphons itself dry and the smell comes up through it.
III
Water heaters
A tank that runs out early is often a broken dip tube rather than a failed heater. Recovery rate and first hour rating decide what actually replaces it, not the number on the old label.
IV
Repiping
Galvanised pipe closes from the inside out. Pressure at the fixture drops for years before anything leaks, which is why the complaint that starts this job is almost always flow rather than water on the floor.
What the work looks like

What happens after you call
- 01
You tell us what you see
A stain, a sound, a smell, or a water bill that jumped for no reason. Each one points at a different part of the system.
- 02
We find the source
Meter test for a hidden leak, camera for a drain, moisture meter through the ceiling. We open the smallest hole that answers the question.
- 03
You get the price before we cut
What has to come out, what can stay, and what putting the wall back adds to the total. In writing.
- 04
Water back on, site dry
Pressure tested, every fixture run, and the space left swept and dry rather than merely finished.
Questions people ask
If it dropped all at once, look at the main or the pressure reducing valve. If it faded over years, it is usually the inside of galvanised pipe closing up, and no amount of work at the fixture will bring it back.
Not always. Thermostats, elements, anode rods, and dip tubes are all replaceable parts. The age and the condition of the tank itself are what decide whether replacing one of them is worth doing.
Air. A blocked or undersized vent forces the drain to pull air through the trap instead of down the vent stack. That noise is the trap losing its seal, and the smell that follows is the reason it matters.
