Pipework Repair With Expert Precision
Pipework repair is more than just a patch-up job. At LJM, we bring over 25 years of industry experience to every repair, ensuring your plumbing system is handled with expert care. From assessing the affected area to applying long-term solutions, our plumbers work diligently to prevent future issues.
Our repair process begins with an on-site inspection by a qualified plumber. If the damage is concealed, we engage our trusted subcontractor for accurate leak location using ultrasonic listening devices and specialised tools. Once the leak is found, our team takes over the repair or replacement of the damaged pipework, all while minimising disruption to your property.
Unlike many companies, we hold all materials and equipment in-house, including concrete saws, leak detection gear, and earthmoving machinery. This allows us to act immediately without outsourcing or delay. With over 18 full-time team members and a strong subcontractor network, LJM Plumbing, Gas and Drainage is fully equipped to handle both residential and commercial repairs.
