Highlights

"Really impressed with the comms and work carried out. James was able to provide a quote with photos of the required work, and we planned a date and time for the work to be carried out. He arrived on time, got straight to it replastering a damaged wall and everything was all cleared up after. Would definitely recommend"

"Great guys. Quick to turn around the quote and flexible about start date. On the day arrived bang on time and cracked on with the job. All completed really well and more than happy to use them again and recommend to others"

Before you hire a plumber

Agree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top — in writing — before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced — get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade — not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
