Highlights
"This is the sixth time i have called Chris at CPS Plumbing & Drains to sort out blocked drains at my mum's house and once again he provided an excellent service. He responded on the same day as i called and highly efficiently unblocked drains/pipes inside and outside the house which removed all the problems that we were having. Not only is he great at his job, he is always so kind, courteous and respectful to my elderly mother and i. He is a true gentleman and an all round good 'un. His work also really good value. I cannot recommend Chris and CPS Plumbing & Drains highly enough. Thanks Chris."
"Chris has helped me out a couple times now, very efficient and a hard worker, I would 100% recommend him and I will use him for any other jobs I may need in the future. Really pleased with his work and very friendly too. 10/10"
"I have used CPS before in inserting a new soakaway drain. On this occasion, Chris managed to fit me in around his schedule to fix an urgent and very tricky, and persistent shower leak that I had discovered and which had soaked an internal wall. The job involved finding and fixing the leak, embedded in the wall, without damaging the shower tiling, and making good. Great job as always. He also sorted out a couple of additional problems we discovered during the job. Highly recommend."

Smart checks
Before you hire a gas engineer
By law, anyone working on your gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register — ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the licence number at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start.
Never let an unregistered person touch your gas: unsafe gas work risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire and explosion, and is a criminal offence.
For a boiler or appliance install, get the work and price in writing and keep the Gas Safe / Building Regulations certificate they are required to give you.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
