“Replaced 2 shower cubicles that leaked through ceiling due to not being properly supported when installed by previous owner. Communication was good and work done as planned. Price was very good in comparison to some and the job has been completed to a high standard. During and after the work, they kept any mess to a minimum. We'd agreed to pay to have waste removed but after shower screen had been picked up by scrap metal merchants they had no issue when I decided the waste was easy enough to take to tip myself. Extremely happy and won't hesitate to call for any future work”

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.

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.
