There are several types of Plumbing and Drains (Drainage) contracts offered by the major suppliers. All provide an emergency response should you have an unexpected plumbing failure or a drainage problem. In return for your monthly fee you should receive preferential access to their trained plumbers and drainage engineers.

Taking out a contract means that you can call out these experts to help you at a moments notice without the worry of trying to find a trustworthy tradesman and knowing that they will deliver a quality service.

Plumbing Maintenance

Focusing just upon your plumbing this type of contract will cover you for your costs and labour (perhaps with an upper limit) for plumbing maintenance situations. This often covers the re-washering of leaking taps, or the repair or even replacement of faulty toilet ball valves resulting in leaking overflow pipes.

The hidden value in this type of cover is that plumbing maintenance problems are dealt with quickly. Small leaks can turn into larger and more expensive problems if they are not addressed rapidly.

Plumbing Care

Plumbing care contracts add in emergency plumbing cover and provide an emergency contact telephone line should your plumbing have a breakdown or unexpected failure. The plumber who will attend your home will be an experienced tradesman with the necessary tools and parts to fix most problem situations.

Drains Care

Drainage problems can quickly get out of hand and the initial problem becomes a flood with consequential damage to your property and belongings. Drains care plans again give you an emergency contact number to ensure that a trained drains contractor attends your emergency within a very short period of time. Cover is provided 24 hours per day for every day of the week.

Plumbing and Drains Care

Combining the advantages of plumbing care and drains care, plumbing and drains care plans give you a single call out number to summon an appropriate expert should you have an emergency with either of these important household services.

You should expect the cost to be less than that of both separate plans combined. You may also find some additional benefits included such as overnight hotel accommodation should the problem require you to vacate your home.
