Amazing job. .Contacted Kevin and in 2 days he had sourced the parts required, fitted them and also dealt with another long standing fault in our bathroom .All of this done for less than l would have paid had l purchased the parts on line myself. Will recommend him to anyone else who wants the job done properly at the right price

Kevin made an excellent job of fitting my utility room - he went above and beyond to create the best possible configuration of units etc in an awkward and small space, even when this meant making creative adjustments to factory made units. He is very personable and reliable - absolutely committed to making sure his customer is happy. I thoroughly recommend him.

I would definitely recommend Fitzgerald Plumbing. Kevin was really helpful as we had a small space to work with and he was great at coming up with a creative way to make sure we have the best use of the room. We are really happy with the end result, it is a brilliant transformation - he is very talented!

Kevin carried out the following work for us in early June 2021 - He removed a bathtub and replaced this with a large enclosed shower unit. Kevin was able to source some tiles which matched our existing ones to fit in the gaps left from where the bath was and the resulting finish looks great. We now have more space in our small bathroom to fit a cabinet in which to keep cleaning products hidden away and it has also provided some space for us to have plants. Kevin was conscientious and professional in his work. He was flexible in his approach and was able to identify solutions to a few additional plumbing issues which arose during the shower installation. We were happy with the quote provided and with the end result. We would not hesitate to contact Kevin again for future plumbing work

Kevin has done an excellent job with renovating our shower room. He did it all - fitting the shower tray, screen, shower taps, sink unit and loo, all the fittings, and radiator. He built the cupboard around the boiler and did all the tiling. He was brilliant at solving problems and is very reliable. He is also very reasonably priced for the quality of work he does. We love our shower room now! Above it all, Kevin is a really nice man. We'd have no hesitation recommending him!

Kev is in demand and for good reason. Took care, trustworthy and skilled. Loving my new shower which wasn’t a simple install, needing bathroom remodelling and associated pipe work etc. hardworking bloke, gave me some good advice where I was unsure on options. Would recommend

Kevin did a great job at refurbishing our bathroom. He arranged for the purchase and delivery of the bathroom furniture required. He removed the existing bath, toilet, basin and tiles and replaced this with a walk-in shower, toilet, basin and cabinets. In addition, he retiled the walls, installed a new towel rail and radiator as well as fitted the bathroom carpet. Kevin is approachable, kept us informed of the progress as well as telling us of any problems arising and how these can be solved and kept the place clean and tidy. Kevin quoted a competitive price for the work he carried out and I would not hesitate to refer him to friends and family.

Kevin has done a great job totally modernising our old bathroom. He was very helpful with the design and solved a lot of tricky problems with pipework and rewiring. We've now got a powerful shower which makes such a difference. He kept us informed about how the job was progressing and was very reliable and professional. We would definitely recommend him and ask him again for future work.

Kevin has carried out work on both my home and my rental properties for many years. From complete bathroom installs to replacing a tap he has always been reliable, the quality of his work is faultless and his prices very fair.

Before you hire a builder

Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
