Highlights
“I recently had Chris work on my boiler, and I’m extremely pleased with the service. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The entire process was smooth and efficient, and I really appreciated his attention to detail. Chris also made sure to leave the area clean and tidy after completing the job. Overall, I’m very happy with his work and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of plumbing services. On his way out, Chris noticed a leak in my toilet and, without hesitation, fixed it at no extra cost. 5 star review”

Prompt, curtious, tidy and a good job well done. Already booked him for some further work.
Fast and friendly service. Chris fixed the major leak in seconds and installed a new trap for the sink very quickly.
Verified by CheckatradeBoiler not maintaining pressure - hot water cutting in and out
I phoned Chris on the monday as a new customer and he came out to me that same week, disgnosed the issue then returned a few working days later and fixed it in under 2 hours. Really pleased with how quickly he was able to sort it and the boiler has been great since - thank you!
Cistern not working
Prompt arrival. Work carried out efficently and he was very pleasant and helpful. Will definitely use him again
Despite being busy, came within a couple of days. Found the problem (gas pipe clogged) and sorted it out quickly. Highly recommended

I asked Chris to service my mum's boiler which was in a tricky location in a kitchen cupboard. Despite this he did not charge any extra even though it was very difficult to access as half the cupboard had to be dismantled. He also looked at a leaky drain-off valve and I was pleased when he said it just needed tightening - some others may have charged extra or made out that additional work was needed. I am very pleased with the service he provided and would use him again without hesitation. The price was very reasonable.

Chris replaced our broken boiler. He came out promptly to quote for the job and was very knowledgeable and transparent about the work that needed doing. The price we received was very competitive and we didn't hesitate to use Chris as he had done a couple of other jobs for us in the past. Chris is always very friendly and polite and did an excellent job. Above all, his communication and timekeeping is great throughout, which isn't always the case with other tradesmen!

Fast and friendly.
Verified by CheckatradeInstallation of New Heating/Hot Water Boiler and Hot Water Tank
Very Competitive quotation given for the job and accepted. Chris has been our heating engineer for several years and so we had no doubt that he would do a very thorough job. His attention to detail is first class and the entire job was undertaken competently with all the requisite checks and explanations to the householder undertaken. In addition Chris wore a face mask (at my wife's request as a Covid 19 precaution) throughout the work. I have no hesitation in recommending him as a very sound and reliable heating engineer,
was an emergency investigation and Chris was very professional and to the point. only did what had to be done and made good recommendations
Most impressed that they kept us informed as to their ETA. Good value too

Verified by Checkatrade
Chris arrived at the time agreed and was extremely friendly and courteous. I was very impressed that he removed his shoes (most tradesmen do not do this). At all times whilst carrying out his work, he kept me informed of what he was doing. This is very reassuring from a customer point of view. You can clearly see how passionate Chris is, and how thorough he is when carrying out any works. I would not hesitate to use him again in the future.

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.
