“Cannot rate Kevin highly enough. He recently installed a whole new central heating system in our renovation property. He came on the day we moved (in the depths of winter) to help fire up and optimise the existing system. He then worked with us over several sessions to work out exactly what was needed, taking time to explain and agree everything clearly. He then worked tirelessly to install the new system in the space of only one week. He was always on time (early), worked quietly and neatly, kept us informed along the way, and left everything immaculately clean at the end. Highly recommended”

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.
