When you move into a new home, you don’t necessarily know what condition the drainage system is in. That’s why it’s important to carry out checks as soon as possible. As part of our plumbing services, we even offer homebuyer CCTV drain surveys to thoroughly check a property’s system before you buy. The previous owners may not have maintained their pipework, meaning you may have inherited old, damaged or blocked drains. As gas engineers and drainage experts, PMB Environmental Ltd offers complete checks as well as drain cleaning, central heating repairs and all relevant maintenance in Grays.
There are numerous aspects of plumbing and heating systems that you need to check when moving homes. This ensures your property is fully operational as well as helping you avoid disruptive and expensive water damage. With over 20 years of combined experience in drainage, plumbing and heating services, our team knows exactly how to keep your home running smoothly.
As well as resolving existing issues in Grays, we carry out maintenance services, such as drain cleaning, to prevent blockages and other problems. Our gas engineers also provide boiler servicing to keep your home comfortable and warm throughout the year.
The following are some of the key plumbing and drainage checks to make on a new home:
Dripping appliances are not only annoying, but they waste money. If left, a simple drip can cost you a significant amount. This goes for a running toilet as well. If you notice your toilet in Grays is continuously running or your taps are dripping, use our plumbing services to get them sorted right away before they get worse.
If other areas of your pipework are leaking, a CCTV survey is the best way to locate any damage or other issues. If blocked drains are the problem, we provide efficient clearance services to get your home back to full function.
Before the 1970s, lead was a common choice for household pipes. However, we now know how toxic lead is to humans and in a high enough quantity it can even be fatal. Make sure the drainage system of your home is not made of lead components.
If your water pipes are lead, we strongly recommend replacing them with modern options. This ensures the ongoing health of you and your family in Grays.
No one wants to move into a property with water damage, damp or mould. However, sometimes these problems are hidden until you move. Such issues can indicate wider problems with the drainage or central heating system.
The best way to prevent expensive damage is regular maintenance, such as drain cleaning, but we understand that previous owners may not have been very diligent.
If you notice signs of damp or leaks, call PMB Environmental Ltd as soon as possible. We use high-spec equipment to inspect the pipework, locating the cause of any damage or blocked drains. With our broad range of plumbing services, we effectively resolve any issue you may have.
Because we operate as gas engineers and drainage contractors, we fix problems originating from the boiler or heating system as well as all other areas of pipework.
