Tom responded within 10 minutes of posting, offered to come within the hour however I was unavailable. Came next day quoted me 2 prices for what job may cost upon being able to fix quick fix or if more difficult. It turned out alot more difficult than he had thought, needed extra materials he was upfront with me with all cost and stayed late Thurs pm until he got the job done. Very friendly, honest and knowledgeable would definitely recommend and will use him again if needed.

Leak Detection & Leak Repairs
From a dripping joint under the sink to a hidden leak behind a wall or under a floor, Tom traces the source and repairs it properly first time.
Leaks are rarely where the water shows up. Water travels along pipes, joists and plasterboard before it appears, so the damp patch on the ceiling can be well away from the joint that is actually failing. Fix the wrong thing and the problem comes straight back.
Tom works methodically from the evidence — where the water is, when it appears, which fittings are nearby — to find the true source before anything is cut open. The aim is always the smallest possible disruption and a repair that lasts.
What's included
- Tracing hidden leaks in walls, ceilings and floors
- Leaking joints, compression fittings and valves
- Leaks under sinks, baths and showers
- Leaking toilets, cisterns and waste pipes
- Leaking appliance hoses and connections
- Split or corroded pipework replacement
Signs you may have a leak
- Damp patches or staining on ceilings or walls
- A water meter that keeps turning with every tap off
- Lifting laminate, swollen skirting or a musty smell
- The sound of running water when nothing is on
- Water pooling under units or around the toilet
- Mould appearing suddenly in one spot
Simple, straightforward, done properly
Tell Tom what you are seeing
Photos help. Where the water shows, when it appears and how long it has been happening all narrow down the source.
Trace the source
The leak is tracked from the evidence back to the failing joint or pipe before anything is disturbed.
Repair properly
Failed fittings and damaged sections are replaced rather than bodged, and the repair is pressure-checked.
Tested and tidied
Everything is run and checked for weeps before Tom leaves, and the area is left clean.
Why small leaks need fixing quickly
A slow drip under a sink or behind a bath panel is easy to live with, but it does not stay small. Constant moisture rots chipboard floors and joists, lifts flooring, and brings mould — and by the time it is obvious, the repair is far bigger than the original leak.
If you are on a water meter, a leak also costs you money every hour it runs. Getting it looked at early is almost always the cheaper option.

What customers say
Tom came out today at short notice to mend a leak for us, and we couldn’t be happier with the service. He was extremely polite, professional, and got straight to work without fuss. The job was sorted quickly, neatly, and without disruption. It’s rare to find someone so reliable and courteous at such short notice. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tom and will definitely call him again if we need help. Thank you Tom!
Tom promptly responded to my job post and gave a competitive quote and was able to attend the next day which was a Bank Holiday. He was very efficient, knew exactly what he was doing and kept me helpfully updated at all times. I would highly recommend Tom to anybody who needs his help.
Tom was brilliant. He came late on Friday night to sort out our leaking shower. It was after 11.30pm when he left. Very professional and knowledgeable - would definitely use again and recommend. Thank you Tom from Adele and Hazel.
Tom is friendly and professional. He got the job done quickly and to a high standard. He also followed up with a call a week later to check everything was working okay. Would definitely use Tom again.
Great service from this plumber—he fixed a leak under my bath and replaced the taps on both the bath and sink to a high standard. Professional, efficient, and left everything tidy. Highly recommend.
Leak Detection & Repairs questions
Can you find a leak without ripping everything out?
In most cases, yes. The source is traced from the evidence first so that only the area that needs opening up is disturbed.
Will my home insurance cover a leak?
Many policies include "trace and access" cover for finding hidden leaks. Check your policy — Tom can give you a written description of the fault and the work done for your insurer.
Is a dripping tap worth calling a plumber for?
A dripping tap usually needs a new washer or cartridge, which is a quick job. Left alone it wastes a surprising amount of water and can stain sinks and baths.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No. TSPD Plumbing does not charge a call-out fee, day or night. You only pay for the work carried out.
Are you insured?
Yes, TSPD Plumbing is fully insured.
