Plumber in Topsham

Plumbing, heating and bathrooms in Topsham. Four miles from our base in Exeter, so we are there often.

Topsham

What we do in Topsham

Topsham is a short run from Exeter and we work there constantly. It is also one of the more interesting places on our patch to plumb, because so much of the town is old.

The merchant houses along the Strand and the streets behind it are period properties, many of them listed, sitting in a conservation area. Pipework in a building like that has usually been through several generations of alteration, and what you find behind the wall is rarely what you expected.

That means boiler replacements need thinking about rather than measuring. Flue routes, condensate runs and where the thing can physically go are all constrained in a way they simply are not on a modern estate.

Services

Everything, including emergencies

Emergency plumbing

Burst pipes, bad leaks, no heating or hot water. Ring us and you will get a straight answer on how soon we can be there.

Boiler installation

New boilers and replacements in Topsham, fitted by Gas Safe registered engineers at a fixed price agreed before we start.

Boiler servicing & repair

Annual services, breakdowns and repairs. A serviced boiler burns less gas and is far less likely to pack up in January.

Air source heat pumps

Installed with the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant taken off the quote before you pay. £7,500, or £9,000 for eligible off-gas-grid homes from 21 July 2026.

Air conditioning

F-Gas qualified installation and servicing. Modern units are heat pumps, so they warm a room in winter as well as cooling it in summer.

Bathroom installation

Full bathrooms in Topsham. Plumbing, tiling, electrics and finishing by one team, at one price.

Landlord gas certificates

Annual CP12 certificates for landlords, agents and holiday lets, with reminders before they expire.

Power flushing

Clearing sludge out of the system so the radiators actually warm up and the boiler stops working so hard.

Local knowledge

Listed buildings and a conservation area

If your property is listed or in the conservation area, external work like a flue terminal or a heat pump outdoor unit can need consent from the council. It is worth knowing before you commit rather than after.

We are used to working within those constraints, and we would rather flag a planning issue at the survey than leave you with an installation that has to come back out.

Topsham FAQs

Do you work on listed properties in Topsham?

Yes. A lot of Topsham is listed or in the conservation area, and it changes what is possible with flue routes and outdoor units. We will tell you at survey whether anything needs consent.

Can you fit a boiler in an old Topsham house?

Usually, yes, but it takes more thought than a modern property. Flue routing and condensate drainage are the usual constraints. We work out what actually fits before quoting rather than after.

Do you cover Topsham for emergencies?

Yes. It is four miles from our base in Exeter, so it is one of the quickest places on our patch for us to reach.
