"Dean is an absolute life saver. Best in the business with reasonable prices! Don’t bother looking elsewhere"

"Fast and friendly service from Dean. Replied quickly, discussing the work that needed doing and asking for photos so he could see what was required. Sent through a detailed estimate and we managed to make an appointment within a few days. Dean was great, explaining the work he was going to do and why. Even helped with plumbing in the washing machine. IWould certainly recommend!"

Dean was fantastic- identified problems and explained them so I could understand. Identified issues and wrote report which directed other contractors to a problem they had missed. Then went the extra mile to make sure that the toilets in a very hard water area worked like new. Can not recommend him highly enough.

Dean responded quickly to an emergency repair after a leak from an underfloor heating pipe caused part of the ceiling to collapse. He arrived on short notice and, despite the pipework being non-standard, sourced the correct parts and returned the next day to complete the repair at the agreed price. Throughout the process he was polite, communicative and extremely helpful. I’d happily recommend him.

Dean was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Replaced our broken shower - communication was great before, during and after, despite unforeseen complications. He was punctual and professional throughout, as well as being a pleasure to engage with on a personal level. Highly recommended to anyone that needs any kind of plumbing work done. We look forward to having Dean back round next time we need a pro and we're so glad we've found a top plumber.

Answered the job, reached out quickly to discuss potential issues, arrived the next day ready to diagnose and fix. Once fixed Dean stress tested multiple times and ultimately went out to buy another new part to ensure all was fully fixed to a high standard.

I had a great experience with Dean. He came out to fix my toilet and went above and beyond to get the job done, even staying late to make sure everything was working perfectly. Really professional, friendly, and clearly takes pride in his work. I wouldn’t hesitate to call him again or recommend him to anyone who needs a reliable plumber!

Smart 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.
