Colin was quick to respond and have us a detailed quote and explained all possibilities. He was then available to do the work sooner than he mentioned which suited us. During the work he was professional and approachable throughout. On completion of work he went through all the possibilities and when to call him back if we needed him. Very satisfied

Detailed reviews
Colin was amazing. He got in touch with me really quickly and scheduled a visit for the next day. We had a suspected carbon monoxide leak from our Aga oven and the gas to our property was switched off. After posting the job on Check a Trade, Colin rang to see if he could help. We talked through the issue and, while he’s not an Aga specialist, he offered to come out to have a look at the job and try to get our boiler back up and running and isolate the Aga gas supply so we could at least have hot water and heating again. Tidy, polite, prompt and good value - would highly recommend!
Thorough investigation completed and all the options for repair were explained well. Appreciate the good communication and updates. Boiler is working as it should now.

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.
