Highlights
"Very pleased with work carried out. Great communication. Arrived on date and time agreed. Daryll and father were very courteous and helpful. Left the site area clean and tidy, which was much appreciated. Would definitely use again for future work. Thank you for honest, professional work and communication. Very refreshing."
"Daryll contacted me pretty promptly after posting my job on the Checkatrade website, and turned up to see what was needed on time. We discussed what was required, options and I was happy to go with his recommendation and estimated cost. He and his assistant later returned to complete the task, again at the time arranged and to my complete satisfaction. They also cleared up the debris from the work, leaving my kitchen repaired and looking good. Both very pleasant workmen too."
"Daryll has once again delivered a 10/10 job. Bathroom renovation completed in 2 1/2 weeks. All finishes to his excellent high standards. Daryll consulted with me on important issues and kept me updated."

Check the WaterSafe registerSmart checks
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.
