Plumbing in Fishponds

Fishponds is a large suburb in east Bristol, centred on the shops of Fishponds Road. Its housing ranges from late Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the main road to interwar and later estates further out, with Oldbury Court and the Frome valley on the northern side.

With such a mix of homes, the plumbing varies a lot. Older terraces have original drains and supply pipes that have been patched and partly replaced. Interwar and later homes are more likely to have had kitchens and bathrooms moved or extended.

Common Fishponds jobs

• Blocked drains, gullies and kitchen sinks
• Leaks under floors and behind units
• Bathroom plumbing and shower problems
• Toilets running or leaking at the base
• Radiators cold in some rooms

Autumn leaves

Streets near parks and woodland collect a lot of leaves in autumn, and they end up in outside gullies. Clearing your gully grates before winter is one of the easiest ways to avoid a blocked drain.
