Plumber in Alicante: leaks, blockages and replacements
In Alicante the leak is rarely where the stain appears. In the Ensanche and centre buildings, with a century of pipework patched in layers, water travels through the slab and comes out two floors down. Finding it without opening half the flat is most of the job, and that takes detection equipment.

5/5
In the Playa de San Juan and Albufereta towers the problem is usually the communal riser rather than your flat. Worth knowing before starting any work, because it changes who pays and who has to be told.
Our plumbing services in Alicante
Leak detection and repair
Traced by moisture meter and acoustic equipment in buried pipework before anything is opened. In older buildings it saves breaking into walls that had nothing wrong with them.
Unblocking sinks, bathrooms and stacks
From a one-off blockage to a shared stack. When the problem is communal we say so rather than billing you for work the community owes.
Water heaters and cylinders
Repair and replacement of electric cylinders and gas heaters. Alicante water is hard and shortens tank life, so checking in time saves a full replacement.
Taps and sanitaryware
Taps, toilets, basins and shower trays changed, with the installation checked first so nothing turns up halfway.
Bath to walk-in shower conversion
With the waterproofing redone and new tiling to shower height. The most requested job in the sixties and seventies flats.

Access priced into the quote
In the centre you park a long way off and carry everything up narrow stairs. We count that at the survey rather than turning it into an extra on day one.

Fixed quote after the survey
No figures over the phone. What we sign is what gets invoiced, barring a hidden find we show you in photos before carrying on.
Diagnose before breaking
Locate first, open second. That is what separates a repair from a building job.

Frequently asked questions
There is a stain on my ceiling, is it the flat above?
It may be, but it can equally come from a pipe running through the slab from somewhere else. We locate it before pointing at anyone, with detection equipment and without breaking in.
How quickly do you come out to an emergency?
Within the city we are usually there in roughly two to three hours during normal hours.
The fault looks like it is in the main riser, will you look at it?
Yes, we diagnose it and give you a report for the administrator. Work on the riser is the community's, not yours.
Does Alicante water damage water heaters?
It is hard water and the tank builds up scale, which takes efficiency away year after year. A periodic service extends the life of the unit considerably.
