How We Diagnose and Fix Your Water Pressure

Finding the exact cause of poor water flow requires a methodical, expert approach. When our highly trained plumbers arrive at your property, we conduct a thorough diagnostic check of your entire system.Testing the Mains Water Supply: We start by checking the incoming pressure at your main stopcock and isolation valves to see if the issue lies with the external supply or internal plumbing.Assessing Hot Water Systems: We inspect your hot water cylinder, checking for blocked filters or failing pressure reducing valves.Checking for Hard Water Scale: Properties in Radstock and Somerset often suffer from hard water, which can heavily calcify internal valves and thermostatic mixers over time.Once we have pinpointed the issue, we will clearly explain the most effective, long-lasting fix.

The Benefits of Professional Water Pressure Repair

Ignoring pressure issues often leads to more costly plumbing emergencies down the line. By having a professional assess and balance your system, you protect your home against unexpected water damage and premature appliance failure.If your pressure is too high, installing a WRAS approved pressure reducing valve will protect your pipework and sensitive components like shower pumps and washing machines. If your pressure is too low, we can look at solutions ranging from clearing blockages to upgrading your system to an unvented hot water cylinder.Professional water pressure repair ensures your home runs efficiently, saving you money on potential emergency callouts in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions About Water Pressure

Why is my water pressure suddenly low?A sudden drop usually indicates an acute problem, such as a partially closed stopcock, an issue with the local mains water supply, or a hidden leak. If you suspect a leak, our thermal leak detection services can identify the problem quickly without damaging your property.Can hard water cause pressure problems?Yes. Radstock and Bath are notorious for hard water. Over time, limescale builds up inside pipework, isolation valves, and shower mixers, restricting the flow of water and causing a gradual drop in pressure.Do I need a shower pump to fix low pressure?Not always. If you have a traditional gravity-fed system, a shower pump can drastically improve flow. However, if you have a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder, pumps cannot be directly attached to the mains. We will assess your specific setup before recommending the right solution.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional water pressure repair and plumbing services in Frome, Somerset & Wiltshire.

Why has my water pressure suddenly dropped?

+

A sudden drop can be caused by several things. It might be a burst pipe nearby, a problem with the local water main, or your own internal stopcock being bumped. It could also be a sign of a major leak on your property. If your neighbours still have good pressure, the fault is likely within your own pipes or valves. We can come out and run a diagnostic check to find the cause quickly.

Can you fix low pressure in an unvented hot water cylinder?

+

Yes. These systems rely on specific pressure settings to work. If your hot water is weak but your cold water is fine, the problem is usually a blocked filter or a faulty pressure reducing valve on the cylinder itself. Because we are G3 certified, we can safely repair or replace these components to restore your hot water flow.

What is a pressure reducing valve and do I need one?

+

A pressure reducing valve (PRV) is a device that slows down the water coming from the main to a safe level for your home. If your pressure is too high, it can damage your taps and appliances. If the PRV fails, it can actually block the flow, leading to very low pressure. We can test, clean, or replace these valves to keep your system balanced.

Does hard water affect my water pressure?

+

In the Frome and Somerset area, hard water is very common. Over time, limescale builds up inside your pipes, showerheads, and valves. This narrowing of the pipes acts like a clog, gradually reducing the pressure. We can often fix this by descaling components or replacing the affected valves and pipework.
