Highlights
"Gordon was absolutely amazing. Incredible job and accomodated our tight timeline. We would recommend to anyone. Thank you"
"Gordon and Gary are fantastic professionals. They are both clearly very skilled, knowledgeable and experienced. We had our living room, hallway, staircase and landing plastered. We live in a 1930s cottage, it was full of cracks and in need of some serious work to put right. The finish they managed to achieve was immaculate, we cannot believe the transformation. At the end of the job they ensured that everything was tidied away and were at pains to ensure that we were happy prior to leaving. My mum took one look and now wants them to work at her house. We cannot recommend them highly enough!"

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.
