Detailed reviews
Adil performed a full service on our Worscester Bosch boiler yesterday. I recevied a text reminder about the appointed which was helpful; he then arrived exactly at the agreed time. He was courteous, efficient and did not create or leave a mess. He explained things to us clearly and even checked our gas meter for leaks and also changed a boiler fuse to correct amperage. I am delighted with the service he provided - and at a very competitive price. Thank you Adil, I will be calling you next year again without any hesitation! Very happy to recomment Adil!
Adil was so professional, he explained the root cause of the issue and future implications. Such a nice guy. I will highly recommend him!
Adil turned around our emergency job very quickly. He is hard working and Bert knowledgeable.

Approved plumbers on the free WaterSafe register are vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. Check they're listed, or find a WaterSafe-approved plumber near you.
Check the WaterSafe registerAgree 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.
