Lead Pipe Replacement in Colinton
Lead Pipe Replacement for Colinton’s period villas and larger homes
From Colinton village and Colinton Dell on the Water of Leith to Bonaly and Oxgangs, homes range from 19th-century stone houses to post-war and newer family homes.
Many period villas still have a lead supply from the street to the stopcock, even after the internal pipework has been upgraded. We check exactly where it is and replace what’s needed.
Newer homes rarely have lead, but older properties nearby often do. If yours is pre-1970s, it’s worth a check.

“My downstairs neighbour complained that water was coming through their bedroom ceiling at 6pm. Kevin attended within 2 hours, investigated, and traced the leak back to my neighbour's own water tank — isolating the issue so they had time to contact their landlord. A great, reliable plumber, even if his jokes are mince.”
