> "We run a large retail site and have employed the services of Advanced Drains Ltd for a good number of years. Their services include PPM as well as reactive works and no job is too big or too small for them. Call out times are very good and always with a professional approach, whilst costs are competitive. We have also utilised their services at a number of other sites on an ad hoc basis with the same level of service. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Advanced Drains Ltd."

## 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.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
- Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
