“From Paul in the office to Carl and Dave I couldn’t be happier with the way I was treated and looked after. Paul was really patient with us and explained everything. Carl and Dave were a duo to behold friendly and good humoured. Not many companies offer this level of customer service and I think a few companies out there could learn a lot from DFM”

Highlights
“Great service. Every member of the team from the first call to the guys who came to do the work were really friendly and helpful. The work and costs were clearly explained. Site was left clean and tidy. Really happy with their work, can't fault them.”
“Very happy. Swift response. Job completed at very reasonable price. Friendly and personable staff at all points. Will use again in the future.”
Detailed reviews
Despite advertising no callout fees, this firm responded to my call - saying I thought my sewage outlet was somehow blocked - by sending a man in a van who didn't do any work apart from lift some covers (already loosened by plumber). He was on the property about 3 minutes and told me what I already knew - that the cess pit system was not working properly due to blockage. His office then called me and asked for a fee of about 120 pounds plus vat straight away. I protested at the unfairness but they wouldn't even consider taking that into account if I then had them empty the septic tank. Recommend?? No

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.
