## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Bob created and completed a main bathroom and en suite in our Victorian house. He was very clear and informative throughout the entire process with costs, what the focus was, timelines and suggesting on how to make our designs better. The job was completed to an excellent standard and was always incredibly clean and tidy. Being an old house there were several challenges which were unknown but he navigated and provided us options to resolve. Would highly recommend him and his work for any bathroom job."

> "Bob refitted our bathroom with a low shower base and glass panel, new vanity unit, a higher toilet, and lovely flooring. He was very polite, amiable and informative, reliable and very tidy. He was able to carry out the work with very little disruption and was very reasonably priced. We asked him to come back later to replace the kitchen sink and taps, which he did , again very professionally. We would definitely recommend him."

> "Bob was extremely polite and friendly from the first time I met him to the final day of the project. He send over a detailed quote breaking down all the materials including the labour so I knew what part of the job was going to cost what meaning I could alway change my mind if I didn’t want a certain job doing. Bob is very knowledgeable and help me reconfigure the bathroom in a way that worked way better than what I had planned. Would highly recommend Bob and Reads to anyone wanting a friendly, reliable and professional bathroom fitter or even just for plumbing. Thanks again Laura"

## Before you hire a plumber
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
- For the water-regulations side of plumbing, a WaterSafe-approved plumber is vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. You can check yours or find one free at watersafe.org.uk.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
