Oliver and Andy have done a few bits of work for us in the past, and I'd call Oliver again if anything else needed sorting. They were here last week for a few days to complete a bigger job (putting new plumbing/drainage to take away bathroom waste and getting rid of a macerator we had in our en-suite). They're both friendly, competent, trustworthy and generally a pleasure & a laugh to have around. I'd absolutely recommend them!
excellent work from the team of two, very polite and helpful.
I phoned downstream in regards to a collapsed drain pipe. Oliver answered and was super polite and helpful, attending the property the same day. He saw on the ccyv where the problem was and gave us a very reasonable quote to repair. 2 days later all the works are completed and I have even seen the works on the camera! Fantastic company I cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you!!

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.
