Why are my sinks and laundry staining?
For properties using a spring, borehole or other private water supply. Installation, servicing and repairs for the system you rely on.
Orange or brown marks can be linked to iron; dark staining may involve manganese. These can affect bathroom fittings and washing, but the colour alone does not identify the cause.
How JN can help: JN can review water analysis and the existing filtration, then quote for appropriate iron or manganese treatment.
Acidic water can attack copper pipework and may contribute to pinhole leaks. Leaks can also have other plumbing causes, so the water and damaged pipework need the right investigation.
How JN can help: JN can check the water chemistry and quote for pH correction where appropriate. Existing leaks still need the pipework repaired.
A smell can come from the supply, installed equipment or the building’s plumbing. Whether it affects hot water, cold water or only one tap is useful information.
How JN can help: JN can investigate the water system and discuss suitable testing or treatment based on what is found.
