Local knowledge
Valley Plumbing Is Its Own Trade
Ponty's stone terraces, hillside streets and student lets throw up emergencies you don't see in the city.
Frozen Condensate Pipes
The most common winter call-out in the valley: a frosty night, and the boiler locks out with a fault code because the external condensate pipe has frozen. I can talk you through a safe thaw on the phone — and if that doesn’t clear it, I’ll come out and insulate or re-route the pipe so it’s a one-off.
Stone Terraces & Hillside Streets
Ponty’s stone-built terraces climb the valley sides, which means decades-old pipework patched many times over, and big differences in water pressure between the valley floor and streets like Graigwen. Tracing leaks and taming pressure in these houses is bread-and-butter work for me.
Student Lets — Treforest
With the university on the doorstep, Treforest is full of shared student houses where small problems become emergencies fast. I attend HMOs regularly, can make the property safe with the tenants present, and liaise directly with your landlord or letting agent about the repair.

Questions
Frequently asked questions.
Do you cover the villages around Pontypridd?
Yes — Treforest, Rhydyfelin, Hawthorn, Cilfynydd, Graigwen and Church Village are all covered 24/7, alongside Ponty town itself.
My boiler’s showing a fault code and it’s freezing outside — what is it?
On a frosty valley morning it’s usually a frozen condensate pipe. Pouring warm (not boiling) water over the external pipe and resetting the boiler often clears it. If not, call me — and ask about insulating the pipe so it doesn’t happen again.
I’m a student in Treforest and my house has a leak — who pays?
Emergencies are normally the landlord’s responsibility. Call me to make the house safe first — turn off the stopcock if you can find it — and I’ll liaise with your landlord or agent about the repair and the bill.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No call-out fee. I quote my out-of-hours rates up front on the phone before I set off, so you know the cost before I arrive.
