Highlights

Super responsive, came the same day, identified the leak and fixed within a couple of hours.

CustomerCheckatrade5.0 rating

Always nerve wracking when you pick somebody from online rather than a recommendation. We had 3 small jobs to replace a tap in the downstairs loo and to fix small leak to heated towel rail and to replace a washer on kitchen tap which was replaced in the end as 8 Years old and it was the sensible thing to do.

CustomerCheckatrade5.0 rating

Dan was very helpful and efficient regarding a kitchen tap replacement. Highly recommended.

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

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.
