Highlights
"Really impressed, work was completed quickly and exactly as expected. Really happy with the finished work, would recommend."
"We have used JL Plumbing in the past as have other members of our family. Always an excellent, friendly professional service. Great workmanship that goes above and beyond"
"Jonathan came to my rescue yesterday to address a major plumbing failure, which had left two rooms of my bungalow flooded. I contacted J.L.Plumbing via Wattsapp at 07.00 hrs, and he was with me less than 1 hour later; - a 25 mile journey from Folkestone ! Jonathan replaced a failed compression joint on my hot water supply, and altered pipe-work to improve efficiency. Job ( well ) done. But Jonathan ALWAYS goes that extra mile; - I had up to 2 cms. of water in 2 rooms, and my carpet was ruined. Jonathan moved all the furniture, carpet / underfelt, and dried out the room. WHAT A GUY."

Smart checks
Before you hire a gas engineer
By law, anyone working on your gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register — ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the licence number at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start.
Never let an unregistered person touch your gas: unsafe gas work risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire and explosion, and is a criminal offence.
For a boiler or appliance install, get the work and price in writing and keep the Gas Safe / Building Regulations certificate they are required to give you.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
