01 — Method
Four steps, no surprises
The price is fixed on the phone before the technician sets off for Machelen. After that it does not change without your consent.
1
You call
You describe the fault: where, since when, whether the water is off. We state the call-out fee and the repair range before leaving.
Range given by phone2
Diagnosis on site
The plumber locates the cause and shows it to you. If reality differs from the description, he states the new amount before continuing.
Agreement before each step3
Repair
Common parts from the Belgian market, reference visible before fitting. Pressure test and check of neighbouring joints before closing up.
Pressure test included4
Itemised invoice
Travel, labour and parts on separate lines, VAT at 6 % or 21 % shown. Usable for your water-damage insurance claim.
VAT invoice handed over on site02 — Scope
What we do at your place
One technician comes to Machelen, one itemised invoice.
A water heater that has stopped heating often requires a complete 100 L electric water heater replacement with supply and fit in Machelen. For a population of 15417 inhabitants, typical plumber calls also involve hidden leak detection using a camera or tracer gas, leak repair on concealed pipe with opening included, and stop valve replacement. When calling, describe whether the fault affects a mixer or an exposed pipe so the plumber prepares the correct equipment.
Cisterns and toilets
Leaking mechanism, stuck float, loose toilet or full replacement, concealed frame. The mechanism is replaced with a common reference, not a part nobody stocks in two years.
Taps and mixers
Cartridge, seal, ceramic disc, or full replacement of a sink, basin or shower mixer. You see the part before it is fitted and its price on the invoice.
Water heaters
Descaling, element or thermostat replacement, replacement of a 100-litre electric water heater. Compliant connection, new safety group, old unit taken away.
Pipework and valves
Stop valve that no longer closes, weeping joint, section of pipe to replace in copper, PEX or multilayer. Repair compatible with what exists, no forced overhaul.
Sanitary fittings and bathrooms
Fitting a basin, countertop bowl or shower, or replacing hot and cold water runs. Written quote before work starts, with the items and the schedule.
03 — Questions
Your questions before we arrive
What people in Machelen ask before confirming.
What guarantee covers the repair and the parts?
New parts fall under the two-year legal conformity guarantee of Belgian consumer law. The labour guarantee is written on the quote or invoice before work begins. A repair that leaks again at the same spot is redone without a new call-out charge. See the prices →
Is VAT 6 % or 21 % on a plumbing job?
6 % if the property is a private dwelling over 10 years old and the invoice is addressed to a private individual, which covers most houses and flats in Brussels and both Brabants. Otherwise 21 %. The rate applied appears on the invoice with the required legal wording. Request a quote →
What should I prepare before the plumber arrives?
Find the main stop valve and clear access to the area: under the sink, around the water heater, the bath panel. A WhatsApp photo of the faulty part often lets us bring the right reference on the first visit and avoid a second trip. See the prices →
Leaking tap repair (seal, cartridge) in Machelen: how much does it cost?
The Belgian market in 2026 sits between €80 and €180 excluding VAT for leaking tap repair (seal, cartridge), night and weekend surcharges excluded. This is not our own rate card: your exact amount is announced on the phone before the technician leaves for Machelen, and the invoice separates call-out, labour and parts. Request a quote →
Do you really cover Machelen (1830)?
Yes. Machelen is in our area, Flemish Brabant included. The nearest municipality we also cover is Vilvoorde, 2.1 km away. The slot is confirmed by phone before the technician leaves. See the prices →
Can a dripping tap be repaired in Machelen or does the mixer need replacement?
A plumber assesses the fitting to carry out a leaking tap repair using a seal or cartridge whenever possible. If the unit is worn out, mixer replacement for a basin, sink, or shower is performed instead. Request a quote →
What work is done when a toilet cistern keeps running continuously?
A plumber carries out cistern repair by inspecting and servicing the mechanism or the float. When the sanitary fitting cannot be restored, floor-standing toilet replacement is provided with the stated amount confirmed beforehand. See the prices →
Will I see the reference and price of a replacement part before installation?
Yes, our written promises state that no part is replaced without you seeing the reference and the price. Furthermore, no amount that was not stated before work began is charged on your bill. Request a quote →
Does your plumber service travel to Machelen and where is the company based?
