Common Plumbing Issues in Southside Glasgow

Southside properties face specific plumbing challenges that our engineers deal with every day:

Shared soil stacks in tenements — Many Govanhill and Shawlands tenements share drainage stacks between multiple flats. A blockage on one floor affects everyone above. We have specialist equipment for clearing shared stacks and can liaise with factors and landlords on behalf of residents.

Lead pipework — Older Southside properties built before 1970 often still have lead supply pipes. We can test your water for lead content and replace pipework where necessary, often with support from Scottish Water's lead pipe replacement scheme.

Boiler issues in older properties — Many Southside tenements still have outdated back boilers or aging combi boilers that are expensive to run. We provide boiler upgrades with modern energy-efficient models that reduce bills and improve reliability.

HMO compliance — The Southside has a high concentration of Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) that require specific plumbing standards for licensing. We help landlords meet Glasgow City Council HMO requirements for hot water provision, drainage, and fire safety.
