Plumbing & Heating Uplands
Uplands, Brynmill and the streets running up towards Mount Pleasant are some of the areas we work in most, and the housing stock here has a very particular set of plumbing habits.
Victorian terraces and hidden pipework
Most Uplands homes are Victorian or Edwardian terraces that have been re-plumbed in stages over a century. It is common to find lead, iron, narrow-bore copper and plastic all on the same run, joined with whatever was to hand at the time.
That matters when you have a leak. Rather than opening up the whole floor, we trace it first and only lift what we need to.
Pressure problems on the hill
The higher streets suffer weak flow to top-floor bathrooms and showers, particularly in converted lofts. A pump, an accumulator or simply upsizing a run of pipework usually solves it, and we will tell you which one your house actually needs.
Shared houses and student lets take heavier use than a family home, so we also see a lot of worn shower cartridges, blocked wastes and tired radiator valves in this area.
