Highlights
“Fantastic job, many thanks indeed.”
“Kevin was an absolute star and I cannot recommend highly enough. Always punctual, informative and friendly. There wasn't anything that was too much for him and he always spoke with compassion; no question was ever silly. I'd recommend Kevin to anyone!”
“Kevin was a responsive, thoughtful and punctual tradesman. Excellent.”
Detailed reviews
Kevin came promptly to install a new washing machine in a particularly tight space. He also managed to fix a leaking valve left by another plumber. He worked excllently and efficiently and charged a very reasonable sum. Highly recommended.
Came out at short notice to sort out a damaged pipe causing flooding in our kitchen. Figured out the problem and did the job in no time, so it worked out a fair bit cheaper than I was expecting. Far better than other plumbers we've had round in recent years.
Kevin came to the rescue after being recommended by a friend. He has carried out a few plumbing jobs for me, fitting me into his busy schedule. His prices are very reasonable. He is thorough in his work and a genuinely good, thoughtful, honest bloke to have around. I trust him 100%. He explains things clearly, has resolved the problems in my new home and given me peace of mind. Nothing is too small for him. I feel looked after and exceptionally glad I found Kevin.
I cannot recommend Kevin highly enough! He's been absolutely brilliant, courteous, efficient, punctual and totally professional in finding and treating a very problematic leak in my bathroom. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much, so glad I found him!
Kevin's work is gênerous and thorough and he was willing to go above and beyond in an emergency

Kevin has carried out work on both my home and my rental properties for many years. From complete bathroom installs to replacing a tap he has always been reliable, the quality of his work is faultless and his prices very fair.
Kevin has done a great job totally modernising our old bathroom. He was very helpful with the design and solved a lot of tricky problems with pipework and rewiring. We've now got a powerful shower which makes such a difference. He kept us informed about how the job was progressing and was very reliable and professional. We would definitely recommend him and ask him again for future work.
Great plumber, constantly checked my requirements during the job. Started and finished on time.
Kevin did a great job at refurbishing our bathroom. He arranged for the purchase and delivery of the bathroom furniture required. He removed the existing bath, toilet, basin and tiles and replaced this with a walk-in shower, toilet, basin and cabinets. In addition, he retiled the walls, installed a new towel rail and radiator as well as fitted the bathroom carpet. Kevin is approachable, kept us informed of the progress as well as telling us of any problems arising and how these can be solved and kept the place clean and tidy. Kevin quoted a competitive price for the work he carried out and I would not hesitate to refer him to friends and family.
Kev is in demand and for good reason. Took care, trustworthy and skilled. Loving my new shower which wasn’t a simple install, needing bathroom remodelling and associated pipe work etc. hardworking bloke, gave me some good advice where I was unsure on options. Would recommend
Kevin has done an excellent job with renovating our shower room. He did it all - fitting the shower tray, screen, shower taps, sink unit and loo, all the fittings, and radiator. He built the cupboard around the boiler and did all the tiling. He was brilliant at solving problems and is very reliable. He is also very reasonably priced for the quality of work he does. We love our shower room now! Above it all, Kevin is a really nice man. We'd have no hesitation recommending him!
Kevin is a good clean efficient worker, kept us informed of time scales and expected arrival each day. Extremely pleased with work and very competitive rates. Wouldn't hesitate to use again or recommend to friends and family!
Superb gent- lovely to chat with on the phone - took details, researched and assessed make and model of shower that I was having problems with before arriving, got to the root of the problem very fast and very , very reasonable rates! I’ve found my go-to guy! Thanks Kevin!
Kevin carried out the following work for us in early June 2021 - He removed a bathtub and replaced this with a large enclosed shower unit. Kevin was able to source some tiles which matched our existing ones to fit in the gaps left from where the bath was and the resulting finish looks great. We now have more space in our small bathroom to fit a cabinet in which to keep cleaning products hidden away and it has also provided some space for us to have plants. Kevin was conscientious and professional in his work. He was flexible in his approach and was able to identify solutions to a few additional plumbing issues which arose during the shower installation. We were happy with the quote provided and with the end result. We would not hesitate to contact Kevin again for future plumbing work
I would definitely recommend Fitzgerald Plumbing. Kevin was really helpful as we had a small space to work with and he was great at coming up with a creative way to make sure we have the best use of the room. We are really happy with the end result, it is a brilliant transformation - he is very talented!

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.
