## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Upon listing the job on Checkatrade, Cottrell plumbing emailed back within minutes to say they were available to help the next day. Richard communicated with us beforehand to confirm the parts needed, and arrived at our house with the new tap and installed the replacement in very quick time. He was really helpful, and we would definitely look to use him again if we have any other plumbing work."
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Richard recently replaced our entire shower cubicle and did a superb job. He was always very punctual, friendly and very tidy in the work area. We will be having him back to fit out the rest of our bathroom when we can afford it. Very, very good service"
> — Anonymous (4.7, via Checkatrade)

## 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.
