Historic city, low-lying coast
Inside the walls, listed buildings need careful plumbing and sometimes consent for alterations. On the low-lying coast and around the harbour, high groundwater and flooding have been an issue in places, and some owners ask about keeping fittings higher and fitting non-return valves.
The water is hard, so limescale affects showers and taps. Holiday homes and second homes near the coast need winter care.

Chichester plumbing FAQs
Should I drain down my holiday home in Chichester for winter?
If it'll be empty during freezing weather, draining down or keeping heating on low helps prevent burst pipes.
Can a plumber help with flood risk on the coast?
A plumber can fit non-return valves and raise fittings. Wider protection may need a specialist.
Do Chichester plumbers cover Bognor and Emsworth?
Many do. Your postcode decides which plumbers receive your request.
What the local water means for your plumbing: South East England
Much of the South East sits on chalk and limestone, so the water is generally hard to very hard. Expect limescale on taps, shower screens and heating elements, and shorter lives for valves and cartridges unless they are cleaned. Several water companies supply the region, and summer demand can lead to hosepipe restrictions in dry years – which is why some homeowners ask about water-saving fittings when they upgrade a bathroom.
For a burst pipe or a leak through a ceiling, turn the water off at the stopcock and switch off electrics near the water if it's safe to do so before calling a plumber for an urgent visit. What to do about a burst pipe.
