Repiping in London

Pipework replacement in London: what the price includes

• 01
  Copper or plastic, honestly compared

  Copper for exposed runs and longevity; barrier plastic for buried runs, speed and fewer joints. Often the right answer is both.

• 02
  Zoned approach

  Bathroom, kitchen, heating, repiped as zones so the house keeps running between phases.

• 03
  Minimal opening-up

  Routes planned to use voids and existing chases; making good included in the quote, not discovered after it.

• 04
  Pressure-tested and certified

  Every zone tested before it's closed in, with photos of the concealed work for your records.

• 05
  Staged so you are never without water overnight

  A full repipe on an occupied house is planned zone by zone, with the system recommissioned and tested at the end of each day. Nobody should be living in a house with the mains off for a fortnight, and with sensible sequencing nobody has to.

Local conditions we work around

Repiping in London is usually constrained by the finish rather than the plumbing. Conservation-area and listed-building rules mean new runs generally cannot be clipped to a visible elevation, so routes go internally and making good is planned and priced before the first cut rather than discovered afterwards. Hard water is the reason the work is often needed at all: decades of scale narrowing the bore, combined with 1960s and 70s copper now old enough to pinhole, is the standard London repipe.
