Replace toilet fill valve — small leak (fittings already tightened)

£75

Cann Hall, Greater London, E11

9th Sep 2026

There's a small leak coming from the toilet fill valve connection, where the flexible supply hose meets the base of the cistern (see photos). I've already tried tightening the fittings at both ends of the hose and that hasn't stopped the leak, so it's likely the fill valve itself needs replacing, or there's a worn washer/hose that needs swapping out. What I need: Confirm the exact source of the leak Replace the fill valve and/or supply hose as needed Test to confirm no more leaking after repair The toilet is a bit older, so there's a chance the tank may need to come off for full access — happy to discuss on site if so. Photos attached showing the leak area.

Chris helped replace a leaking toilet valve - would definitely recommend!

Leaking outdoor tap

£60

Grange Hill, Essex

9th Jul 2026

*Plumber Needed* We have an old outdoor tap, which is connected to the sink indoors. The rubber hose which comes out of the wall and connects to the tap has a hole/ puncture and is spraying water (see pics). Due to the complexity of accessing the connecting hose from the inside (due to built in kitchen cabinets), we would like this hose disconnected from the tap on the outside and the end sealed off to stop the leak. If you are able to access the hose from the inside and replace it with copper pipe instead then we would be happy for that to be done as well. The price is of course negotiable depending on parts + labour etc.

Kitchen Leak Investigation and Repair Required I have a kitchen leak that is appearing between the laminate floorboards. The leak often occurs after the dishwasher has been running, particularly towards the end of the cycle when it is draining. I am looking for someone with plumbing experience to investigate the source of the leak and carry out any necessary repairs.

Yilnas did an excellent job. He quickly identified the source of the leak and repaired it efficiently. He was professional, polite, courteous, and clearly knew what he was doing. I would happily recommend him and would not hesitate to use his services again.

Panayot fixed a leak in my toilet today. I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. It turned out to be a bigger job than expected, as several parts needed replacing. He handled the situation professionally and worked hard to get everything sorted properly. Reliable, trustworthy, and takes pride in doing the job right. He was honest about what needed to be done and kept me informed, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend his services
