“I was recommended this firm by a friend. A visit was arranged to look at the required work and the problems were explained along with the necessary replacement parts. This was followed up by an estimate which I accepted. I was emailed when the parts had arrived and a date was arranged. The work was duly carried out, efficiently and tidily. Every step was explained to me. All correspondence with the office was done by email and I was able to pay online. I would use this firm again.”

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.
