Highlights
“Very good plumber. Always helpful and punctual. Would recommend.”
“Adam arrived when he said he would, and was straight onto the job. The work was carried out in a professional and efficient way. He explained exactly what he was doing, and how it would be done. All in all, he was a very competent plumber, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.”
“If you need a plumber, this is the guy for you! I random called him for a small job to sort kitchen taps for my brother in a sheltered accommodation and he went over and above the normal, to fit us in, as I was leaving to return to Scotland that same day! Can’t give him any more praise than that, and also he explained every step to my brother, which made him think he was in control! Well done Adam and thank you!”

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
Gas work is restricted by law to Gas Safe registered engineers. If they'll touch a boiler or any gas appliance, confirm they're currently on the register before you hire - it's free and takes a minute.
Check the Gas Safe RegisterBy law, anyone working on your gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register. Ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the licence number at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start.
Never let an unregistered person touch your gas: unsafe gas work risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire and explosion, and is a criminal offence.
For a boiler or appliance install, get the work and price in writing and keep the Gas Safe / Building Regulations certificate they are required to give you.
