Connection hose installation

Takes about 15 min

The flexible connection hose under a basin or behind a toilet is easy to forget until it bursts or starts weeping. A verified plumber shuts the angle valve, removes the old hose, checks the threads at both ends, and fits your new braided hose with its washers seated straight, so it seals without overtightening.

The job takes about 15 minutes, at the fixed price shown on this page. Buy the hose before the visit in the right length and thread size. Measuring the gap between the wall point and the tap inlet helps. If the angle valve itself is stiff or leaking, the plumber tells you and the shut-off valve leakage repair can be added.

Questions about this service

What length of hose should I buy?

Measure the distance from the wall valve to the tap or cistern inlet and add a little slack. Do not buy one that has to be stretched.

How often should these hoses be changed?

Change one when you see rust, bulging or weeping at the ends. Those are signs it may burst.

Can you fit several hoses in one visit?

Yes. Each extra hose is priced and agreed with you before fitting.
