Highlights

"John was efficient and professional, replied to my inquiry quickly and sorted out a date to come over. Installation was professionally done, and also gave me peace of mind over an unrelated issue with my water pump. 10/10 service, definitely call again if anything else goes wrong!"

Robert NCheckatrade5.0 rating

"Superb service from John Maxwell he installed our new bathroom nearly two years ago and when we recently had a couple of minor problems he attended quickly fixed the issue at no charge and said it was goodwill. I have no hesitation in giving Go Shower ten out of ten and would give more if it were possible."

"John kindly carried out some remedial work on an old bathroom we inherited when buying a house. He was extremely helpful and went the extra mile to help show me how to silicone around the edges. 10/10, I would highly recommend John for any bathroom related services."

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.
