About

JCL Plumbing LTD, find me on facebook After serving in the British army, I decided to become a plumber/handyman. I have been in the trade for many years now, undertaking jobs from simple socket changes to full house renovations. I recently made the move to the north east of England and I’m slowly building up a new customer base, all of which have been very happy with my work. I am very competitive with my pricing, I ALWAYS turn up when I say I will and always on time. I’m a qualified plumber but can turn my hand to most things. I have built media walls, moved bathrooms from one room to another, turned pantry’s into downstairs toilets, changed en-suites to wet rooms, all jobs I undertake I can do from start to finish, so my customers have no need to find other tradespeople. All my work is guaranteed and I am fully insured. NOT a bodge it and run tradesman, unlike a lot of ‘tradesman’ in the area.

Highlights

"Excellent service, knew what he was doing and very honest"

AnonymousCheckatrade5.0 rating

"Absolutely thrilled with the transformation of our living room! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and professional. The walls were fully plastered to perfection, leaving a smooth, flawless finish that completely refreshed the space. The biggest highlight has to be the media wall – beautifully built, solid, and a real statement piece. It not only looks stunning but has completely changed the feel of the room. The craftsmanship and attention to detail were second to none. You can tell a lot of pride went into the work. Couldn’t be happier – highly recommended!"

EVERYTHING!!

EVERYTHING!! Jay has done all sorts in my property since I moved in, from tearing down walls, laying flooring, fixing leaks, tiling, replumbing my bathroom etc and I couldn’t recommend him enough! He is very transparent with costs and timeframes & finishes every job to a high standard. I wouldn’t trust anyone else now.

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.
