Highlights
"Would highly recommend Paul! We got him in to do a full skim in our dining room & living room, including overboarding & plastering ceilings, and one additional bedroom ceiling. Paul & his team were incredibly professional and did a brilliant job - we're so happy with the finished result. Perfectly smooth walls and no more artex ceilings! Communication was very easy and clear from the get-go; he came round and quoted and got us booked in quickly. Just a great experience all round."
"I had an old gas fire removed which left a hole in the wall. Paul was recommended to me and I arranged for him to come and plaster the whole wall. Great communication when discussing a quote and then arranging for the work to be done. Arrived on time and did a great job, would definitely recommend and will use again for any similar jobs."
"I was recommended Paul by a friend and he came round to quote very promptly and started the job promptly. We wanted the whole house rendered and he and his team have done a great job. Everything was covered up prior to the start and at the end they took a whole day to clean everywhere down. They arrive before 8 and do not stop all day. They all have a great work ethic and Paul is meticulous in his planning and organisation. Nothing is too much trouble. My neighbour has now also been quoted and we are having our garage rendered too. I would not hesitate to recommend ."

Approved plumbers on the free WaterSafe register are vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. Check they're listed, or find a WaterSafe-approved plumber near you.
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.
