Highlights
"Ian was great and I’d definitely use him again. I arranged for him to search for a leak somewhere on my elderly father’s farm. Because I wasn’t able to be on site he arranged to send me updates and was quickly able to find the leak and fix it. Not only that he came back to ensure it was fully fixed and found another more minor leak, and fixed that. I have 100% trust in him and would recommend him to anyone else - I’d definitely use him again. Thanks Ian"
"Very happy with the work and communication"
"We were very pleased with the work done by Ian and his son when they installed a new water pipe up our drive, The moling was done very efficiently and Ian was very good at liaising and co-ordinating with our workmen who were installing a downstairs toilet for us, and keeping us informed before, during and after the work was done."

Smart 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.
