Highlights

“Ian did an amazing job with putting in additional taps outside, removing all unnecessary pipes and revamping the whole kitchen system. He was reasonably, timely and very professional. Definitely recommend for any plumbing work.”

“Phone Ian Friday evening and he attended Saturday morning with new pump and completed work.”

“Ian did a great job, he was really helpful and friendly throughout the work being done. We had an old bath taken out and a new wall re built and plastered to fit in a large tiled shower tray enclosure. Having large titles just in the shower enclosure worked really well and looked really high quality finished considering we live in a flat. Recommend using tile giant through Ian. Ian managed to install a sink on top of our new toilet which was great because we didn't have a sink in toilet room to begin with. We will defintely have him back to do work for us in the future.”

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.
