Jamie did, as ever, an excellent job. He is courteous, efficient and always ready to help out (valve leak that appeared in the last 24 hrs), either practical or with advice. We count ourselves extremely lucky that we ‘found’ Jamie nine years ago. He has installed a boiler, a shower and undertaken all boiler services as well as providing advice when we got stuck with a plumbing issue. Just excellent!!!
They replaced a faulty 3 port valve at short notice, when my heating was broken. Really good at getting back to my enquiry quickly, arrived on time, I was really happy to have them in my home. The heating was fixed, which was such a relief. I would highly recommend this company even though they are pretty popular these days they will try to help in an emergency. He also spotted a leak from our overflow tank and gave some good advice on how to fix that too.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 14 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

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.
