Yes, leaking radiators are a common plumbing repair. The leak is usually from the valve, the bleed point or a corroded joint. A plumber can typically fix a leaking radiator valve in under an hour for £60 to £120. If the radiator body itself is corroded through, it will need replacing — expect £150 to £350 including the cost of a new radiator.

A dripping tap is not usually a plumbing emergency, but it should not be ignored. A tap dripping once per second wastes over 15,000 litres of water per year, adding roughly £30–£50 to your water bill. It can also cause limescale buildup and eventually damage the tap mechanism beyond simple repair. Book a plumber for a non-urgent appointment to replace the washer or cartridge.
