I was unsure about converting from a gravity-fed to a pressurised system in my house. David (DTP) took time to explain everything clearly and expertly and even pressure tested the mains water before giving balanced advice and submitting quotes on alternative systems. I chose mains fed and have no regrets. It's a big job where much can go wrong, but I can't fault anything about the way David and his team carried out the work. Also impressed by the high standard of workmanship on every aspect of the job, so I got good value for money too. I'd recommend DTP Plumbing and Heating to anyone.

Detailed reviews
Very accommodating and conscious of my recently widowed mother’s needs, worked around her schedule. Very trustworthy and polite.
From the time we first contacted Dave he was so helpful, he came round the same day as we had an issue with our boiler. He got it working and discussed options for going forward. We chose replacing the boiler, he came on the day and at the time he said he would be there. The work he carried out was very good, and very tidy. He corrected/tidied up previous work carried out. He always discussed things before going forward if things needed to be moved, very professional. Would highly recommend him if you need work, he was/is a great find after being let down.

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.
