Steve and his team have done all our plumbing work for nearly 20 years and across three properties - there’s a reason we trust and appreciate his service. Quick to respond, consistently high quality work and good to be around. Also, more than once has come up with solutions to save us money or given phone advice to avoid a call out charge. Strong recommend.

Steve responded quickly when our radiator drain off valve started leaking. He provided a very fair quote with detail of the work. Bliss carried out the work the same afternoon and was great - very polite, explained what she was doing and was very considerate and tidy. Will use S H again.

I've used Steve and his team twice and have been thoroughly impressed. Excellent communication, explanation of the issue and the different options/solutions available and very clean and tidy in their work as well as being friendly and polite. The standard of the repairs carried out was excellent and was very reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend them

I could not recommend Steve enough! We had no heating or hot water after our boiler broke with an F75 fault. We originally had different plumbers attend who quoted us £2k to fix the issue but pressured us that the whole boiler needed to be replaced for £7k as it was 10 years old. Steve came on a Friday evening and immediately told us the boiler did not need to be replaced and it was fixable. Steve fixed the boiler within half an hour for £280!! Great experience with S H Plumbing and will certainly be using them again.

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.
