Lead Pipe Replacement in New Town
Across Edinburgh's World Heritage New Town — from Queen Street and Heriot Row to Dundas Street and Royal Circus — homes are mostly Georgian townhouses split into flats, many with basement levels and long-hidden pipework.
Georgian and early Victorian buildings can have lead hidden in basements, under floors and inside walls. We trace it carefully and replace it with as little disruption to the building as possible.
Many period villas still have a lead supply from the street to the stopcock, even after the internal pipework has been upgraded. We check exactly where it is and replace what’s needed.
Reviews
“My downstairs neighbour complained that water was coming through their bedroom ceiling at 6pm. Kevin attended within 2 hours, investigated, and traced the leak back to my neighbour's own water tank — isolating the issue so they had time to contact their landlord. A great, reliable plumber, even if his jokes are mince.”
“I'm a landlord with several properties and have been using Kevin from Dunedin Plumbing for a couple of years now. He's an exceptionally good plumber — reliable, turns up on time, doesn't overcharge, and always leaves the property clean and tidy. It's nice having someone you can trust to get the job done properly.”

Questions
In older properties in New Town, it's still common to find some lead pipework. We'll check what you have and tell you honestly whether it needs replacing.
Yes — EH2, EH3 and the streets around Queen Street, Heriot Row and Royal Circus. We also cover Stockbridge, Old Town, Leith and Bruntsfield.
If your property was built before the 1970s and nothing's been upgraded since, there's a good chance at least part of the supply is lead. We check on-site and tell you honestly — you won't be sold a replacement you don't need.
