Common Plumbing Problems We Solve
Low Water Pressure
Weak flow from taps or showers — common in high-rise units above level 10 or terrace houses with undersized supply pipes.
✓ Fix: Booster pump or pipe upgradeToilet Chokage
Slow-flushing or completely blocked toilet bowl or floor trap — often caused by accumulated waste, foreign objects, or tree root ingress.
✓ Fix: Drain snake or jet clearingRunning Cistern
Toilet that constantly runs water — caused by a failed float valve, worn flapper seal, or cracked siphon — wastes hundreds of litres per day.
✓ Fix: Cistern fitting replacementWater Heater Not Heating
Cold water only from shower — could be a failed heating element, thermostat fault, tripped MCB, or end-of-life unit needing replacement.
✓ Fix: Repair or unit replacementDripping Taps & Mixers
Constant drip from tap or mixer — caused by worn O-rings, cartridge failure, or corroded seat washer. Simple fix if addressed early.
✓ Fix: Cartridge or washer replacementConcealed Pipe Leak
Damp patches on walls or ceilings with no visible source — pressure testing helps isolate which circuit is leaking before any hacking begins.
✓ Fix: Pressure test & pipe repairKitchen Sink Chokage
Slow kitchen drain — grease, food debris, and soap scum accumulate in the P-trap and waste pipe over time, causing backflow and odour.
✓ Fix: Trap cleaning or pipe clearingWater Hammer
Loud banging noise when taps are closed — caused by sudden pressure surges in the pipe. Can damage pipe joints and fittings over time if left unfixed.
✓ Fix: Pressure regulator or air chamberHow It Works
Our 5-Step Plumbing Process
1
Booking & Response
Contact us by call or WhatsApp. For emergencies, we respond within the hour. For scheduled jobs, we confirm your slot and send a technician profile in advance.
2
On-Site Diagnosis
The technician inspects the issue, traces the source of the problem, and provides a clear explanation of the cause and recommended fix — before touching anything.
3
Quotation & Approval
A verbal or written quote is given. You approve the scope and cost before any work begins. No surprise invoices — what's quoted is what's charged.
4
Repair or Installation
The agreed work is carried out cleanly and efficiently. Water is isolated, work is done, and all joints are pressure-tested or flow-tested before the main supply is restored.
5
Test, Clean & Handover
All work is tested under live water pressure. The area is cleaned. A receipt with materials used and a workmanship warranty period is provided before the technician leaves.

"Called MKW Global at 9am about a burst pipe in our storeroom — they arrived within two hours, traced the leak to a concealed supply pipe without unnecessary hacking, repaired it, and pressure-tested the whole line before leaving. Professional, fast, and reasonably priced. Would not hesitate to call them again."

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find a concealed pipe leak without breaking the wall?
We isolate circuits using shutoff valves and conduct a pressure drop test — closing off the main and monitoring a pressure gauge over 15–30 minutes. If pressure drops, there is a leak in that circuit. By systematically isolating branch lines, we can pinpoint which section is leaking before opening any wall. In most cases, we can narrow the leak to within a 1–2 metre section, minimising the hacking area.
What pipe material do you use for new installations?
For cold water, we primarily use PPR (polypropylene random copolymer) pipe — heat-fused joints with zero leak points, chemical-resistant, and rated for 20+ years. For hot water, PPR-CT (composite) or CPVC is specified. We avoid PVC for concealed hot water lines as it can soften over time. All pipes and fittings are SIRIM-approved and sourced from certified suppliers.
My toilet keeps running — is this a big deal?
Yes — a running cistern can waste 200–400 litres of water per day, adding RM 30–80 to your monthly water bill. The cause is almost always a failed float valve, worn flapper, or cracked siphon — all inexpensive parts that take 30–60 minutes to replace. Don't ignore it; the water bill saving pays for the repair within the first month.
What size booster pump do I need?
Pump sizing depends on your incoming water pressure, the number of simultaneous outlets (taps, showers, water heaters), and the height difference between the pump and the highest outlet. A typical 3-bathroom terrace house needs a 0.5–0.75 HP automatic pump. High-rise units or properties with multiple floors may need a 1.0–1.5 HP unit. We assess your live incoming pressure and recommend the correct pump before supply — not guesswork.
Instant or storage water heater — which is better?
Instant (tankless) heaters heat water on demand — lower energy waste, compact, no standby heat loss, and better for 1–2 bathroom households. Storage heaters keep a tank of hot water ready — better for simultaneous multi-outlet use (large families, multiple showers) but consume more energy. In Malaysia, instant heaters are the most common choice for HDB-style bathrooms. We'll recommend based on your household size and existing electrical capacity.
Can you replace sanitary fittings without retiling the bathroom?
In most cases, yes. A toilet bowl, wash basin, mixer tap, or shower head can be replaced without disturbing the tiles, provided the new fitting footprint matches the existing waste pipe and supply pipe positions. Where there is a slight position difference, we can adjust the supply pipe connections without hacking. We always check compatibility before recommending a fitting so you don't end up with tile damage.
