Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 4 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

He has completed 4 jobs for me the family , at different locations. He's a genuine guy who keeps you informed when carrying out the job required. Can't fault this guy I would recommend Phil to anyone who needs the job without any hassle.

AnonymousCheckatrade5.0 rating

Phil contacted me, interested in my job to fix an error with our shower. Phil was incredibly communicative, very professional and clearly knowledgeable. He advised it was an electrical issue which we have since had fixed but I won't hesitate to contact Phil in the future with any plumbing needs.

Worth checking yourself
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.

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 register
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.
