Highlights
“Absolutely thrilled with the transformation of our living room! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and professional. The walls were fully plastered to perfection, leaving a smooth, flawless finish that completely refreshed the space. The biggest highlight has to be the media wall – beautifully built, solid, and a real statement piece. It not only looks stunning but has completely changed the feel of the room. The craftsmanship and attention to detail were second to none. You can tell a lot of pride went into the work. Couldn’t be happier – highly recommended!”
“Outside Tap - Hot Great work and left the house tidy, would definitely recommend and use again, thanks!”
Detailed reviews
Repairs were carried out at a high standard and all materials cleared on completion
EVERYTHING!!
EVERYTHING!! Jay has done all sorts in my property since I moved in, from tearing down walls, laying flooring, fixing leaks, tiling, replumbing my bathroom etc and I couldn’t recommend him enough! He is very transparent with costs and timeframes & finishes every job to a high standard. I wouldn’t trust anyone else now.

About
JCL Plumbing LTD, find me on facebook After serving in the British army, I decided to become a plumber/handyman. I have been in the trade for many years now, undertaking jobs from simple socket changes to full house renovations. I recently made the move to the north east of England and I’m slowly building up a new customer base, all of which have been very happy with my work. I am very competitive with my pricing, I ALWAYS turn up when I say I will and always on time. I’m a qualified plumber but can turn my hand to most things. I have built media walls, moved bathrooms from one room to another, turned pantry’s into downstairs toilets, changed en-suites to wet rooms, all jobs I undertake I can do from start to finish, so my customers have no need to find other tradespeople. All my work is guaranteed and I am fully insured. NOT a bodge it and run tradesman, unlike a lot of ‘tradesman’ in the area.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
