Plumber in Ixelles, Brussels
Need a plumber in Ixelles? Describe the job and mention your street: your request is forwarded to a professional covering this part of Brussels.
Brussels is full of early 20th century maisons de maître and terraced houses divided into flats, especially in Ixelles, Saint-Gilles, Etterbeek and Schaerbeek. Old cast iron drains, shared risers and gas boilers installed in kitchens or cellars mean leaks, blockages and boiler breakdowns are the most frequent calls. Brussels tap water is hard, so limescale affects boilers, water heaters and washing machines. In older buildings lead pipes can still be present. Gas boilers must be serviced regularly under Brussels Region rules, which is also when many small plumbing issues are spotted.

Under Brussels tenancy rules, small maintenance repairs are generally for the tenant and larger repairs and wear for the landlord. Contact your landlord or agency first unless it is urgent.
