When people search "plumbing near me," it's usually because something specific has gone wrong — a tap won't stop dripping, the pressure's dropped, or a pipe's leaking somewhere it shouldn't be. TaskHer covers the full range of household plumbing jobs across London, with an instant quote before you book.

Common Plumbing Jobs TaskHer Covers Near You

Whatever the plumbing issue, there's a good chance it's one TaskHer's vetted plumbers handle every week: dripping or leaking taps, low water pressure, toilet repairs, radiator leaks, blocked drains, and burst or corroded pipes. Our guide to common bathroom plumbing problems covers several of the most frequent issues in more depth.

How Much Does Plumbing Cost in London?

Plumbing through TaskHer is priced from £95+VAT per hour, and you get a free, instant quote before you commit to booking — no guesswork, no need to have a stranger round just to give you an estimate. Payment is only taken via Stripe once the job is complete, so you're never paying upfront for work that hasn't happened yet.

Do You Need a Licensed Plumber?

There's no single mandatory licence to be a general plumber in the UK, which surprises a lot of homeowners. Gas work is the exception — anyone working on gas appliances must be Gas Safe registered by law. For general plumbing, look instead for verified qualifications, insurance, and professional body membership. Our full guide to UK plumbing regulations breaks down exactly what's required and what to check. Every plumber on TaskHer has already had these credentials verified before they can take a booking.

What's Covered by TaskHer's Plumbing Guarantee

Every plumbing job booked through TaskHer is guaranteed. If the work isn't carried out with reasonable care and skill, you have the legal right to ask TaskHer to put it right. That guarantee applies regardless of which plumbing job you've booked, from a simple tap repair to a full pipe replacement.

Basic Plumbing Tools You Might Already Have

Some minor plumbing tasks, like clearing a simple blockage with a plunger or tightening a loose tap connector, can be handled with a few basic plumbing tools most households already own: an adjustable wrench, a plunger, PTFE tape, and a set of pliers. For anything beyond the basics — or if a fix doesn't hold — it's worth booking a professional rather than risking further damage.
