I selected Humble Plumbing because of the reputation for honesty, following a recommendation on a local WhatsApp group. Jake was very clear about payment terms and he worked quickly and effectively. I had a number of small jobs, which many others would have rejected. They are all solved without further ado and other potential highlighted and fixed. A knight in shining armour!
Came to my rescue when our hot water didn’t work. Jake was prompt, great attention to detail and got it sorted!
Best plumber I’ve had in years.
Jake was great-coming at short notice, he dealt calmly+efficiently with a hard to access leaking pipe. He cleaned up after the work+even took off his shoes so he didn’t mark the carpet. And his price was very reasonable-nice guy, 5 stars, I’ll definitely use Humble plumbing again. Thanks!
Jake is a totally professional, no-nonsense person. I had problems with the piping to my bathroom and a leakage in my shower room. Unlike five others, he identified the problem quickly, ordered the necessary parts and fixed it professionally and promptly. He also impressed me by being able to pinpoint the source of the leakage in the shower room without having to remove all the tiling. He is punctual, courteous and friendly; above all he is highly efficient. He is a very valuable asset and I recommend very strongly

Had a damp patch on a carpet but no obvious cause. Called on Saturday morning, Jake called me back that afternoon and came on the Tuesday morning as promised. Quickly identified a poorly soldered joint that had been leaking for some time. Cut pipe put and replaced all in the first hour call out. Courteous, professional and straightforward. Would happily recommend.
Verified by CheckatradeFixing the toilet
The plumber, Jake, was amazing at the work that he did. From the time of making the phone call and getting the work done, it was only 2 days. The plumber was very respectful and worked diligently to get the work done. The charge for the work done was also very fair and effective.
Jake has now addressed several plumbing challenges in our new home - a blockage, a broken shower and pump issue. He quickly diagnosed each problem, obtained parts quickly and fixed each issue effectively and efficiently. I thoroughly recommend him.
Verified by CheckatradeRadiator replacement and bleed system
Jake did a great job fitting a large 4 column radiator for us. He came back to ensure the system was fully vented and we are very pleased with the results. Highly recommended.
Verified by Checkatrade
Ordered the part from original shower supplier. Agreed suitable time for repair and carried out efficiently.
Verified by CheckatradeRepair of broken toilet flush
Jake arrived promptly (earlier than expected in fact, although that was helpful). Got straight on with the job, secured the parts necessary and completed the repair. Flush now works better than it has for some months. Would readily hire again for my next plumbing job.
Verified by CheckatradeShower fitting and installation of water pump and toilet hand hoses.
Jake and a colleague (an electrician) carried out the work in a timely and collaborative manner, being sensitive throughout to the needs of my disabled parents. The work was completed to a high standard and we were provided with professional advice and suggestions prior to and during installation. The after service was excellent. Jake and a colleague installed a water pump to increase the water flow to the first shower. Jake guided us through the best options for us and executed the work to a high standard. We were impressed with the quality of work and re-engaged him for further work.
Jake Humble is very professional. He is very competent. I am very happy with the work he did for me. He completed my plumbing job brilliantly and in a timely manner on the terms agreed. His paperwork is also excellent. I could not fault him and would strongly recommend him to anyone wanting a first rate plumber.
Jake is quick knowledgable and good at his job Highly recommended, first class plumber . Have used him several times now

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.
