Plumber services you can trust in Hinckley

If you’re dealing with a cold shower, a noisy boiler or a fan that won’t spin, a local plumber is the fastest way to get things working again. At Hinckley Home Appliance Repair Services we combine plumbing know‑how with appliance expertise, so you get one call for all the things that keep your house humming.

Common plumbing jobs we handle

Our team covers the everyday problems that most homeowners face:

  • Boiler installation and repair – Whether you need a new combi boiler or a quick fix on an old one, we check the gas lines, pressure settings and safety valves.
  • Water heater issues – No hot water? We test the heating element, thermostat and dip tube, then advise if a repair or replacement makes sense.
  • Leak detection – From hidden pipe leaks behind walls to dripping taps, we use pressure testing and visual inspection to find the source fast.
  • Extractor fan fitting – Proper ventilation stops mould and keeps kitchens fresh. We install fans, wire them safely and make sure they vent to the outside.
  • Appliance‑related plumbing – Dishwashers, washing machines and even some fridge models need water connections. We hook them up and fix any drainage issues.

Each job starts with a clear quote, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before we lift a wrench.

When to call a pro vs. DIY

DIY fixes can save a few bucks, but some tasks are best left to trained hands. If you’re comfortable turning off the main valve, swapping a faucet washer or cleaning a showerhead, go ahead. However, call us when you see any of these red flags:

  • Water continues to pool after you shut off the tap.
  • Boiler makes strange noises, leaks, or shows an error code.
  • The reset button on a water heater won’t stay down.
  • Electrical work is required – always hire a qualified plumber or electrician for wiring.
  • Extraction fans stop working and you suspect a motor or wiring fault.

Trying to fix these yourself can cause more damage or create safety hazards. A quick call can save you time, money and a lot of stress.

Our plumbers are fully insured, Gas Safe registered and know the local building codes, so you get a job that passes inspection the first time. We also offer maintenance plans that include annual boiler checks, water‑heater flushing and fan cleaning – all the little things that keep big problems away.

Got a plumbing question? Drop us a message or give us a ring. We’ll schedule a visit, explain what’s wrong in plain language, and get your home back to normal without the hassle.
