  • Water tank room

    Over the back of where I live there is a block of flats that has a water tank room and I've noticed the last few weeks there is a constant humming noise and vibration coming from it that I can here and feel from my house. Its got worse each day. I have reported it to the company who manage the block of flats and they said they sent an engineer to inspect it and he couldn't here anything witch is ridiculous and he must be toned death. Do you think there is a fault and should I report it to the environmental health at my local council?

    Do plumbers offer out of hours emergency services?

    I don’t have an emergency right now but just wondering, who could I contact if a plumbing emergency arose, and especially if it happened at all hours, like four in the morning? Would just be good to know in case. You can never be too safe! Thank you!

    Hot water issues

    Hi, I first noticed when running the hot tap on the bath the tap in the kitchen would start dripping, but stop immediately when the bath tap was turned off. Then started noticing a groaning noise when using hot water on any tap, now the shower will only run hot, no matter where you turn it. Not sure if this is all related or separate issues?
