Concealed pipe drilled behind a tiled wall in Whetstone

What AFS did
Diagnosis and repair
AFS carefully removed the tile in one piece, opened the wall around the damaged pipe and fitted a suitable John Guest coupler to restore the connection.

The repair area was prepared so the original undamaged tile could be refitted. Careful access can make a major difference to the final cost and appearance of a concealed-pipe repair.
