Highlights
"I’ve used Richie a few times. He’s always quick to respond to requests and has always sorted my problems quickly and efficiently. I recommend him."
"Replacement gully, camera investigation, jet cleaning"
"Contacted Q Drains re. a blocked drain on recommendation from trusted plumber. Richie was in the area and called round early evening after completing another job. He diagnosed and fixed the blockage that evening for a very fair price. Nice guys. Tidy. Knowledgeable. I was very impressed and will use Q Drains to undertake a full CCTV of the drainage system."

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.
