We’ve used Max for several years now at both our previous address as well as our new address of which we moved in just a few months ago. He has done several jobs for us, which have included annual boiler services, new radiators and our most recent - a whole new bathroom at our new property which have all been done to an amazing standard. To say we are pleased with our new bathroom is an understatement! It’s gorgeous and he has done an exceptional job! He’s incredibly good at what he does, and with that, he brings professionalism and friendliness. I would 100% recommend him! Thanks again max!

The service received by MCW was perfect. Max was very thorough and did an amazing job plumbing in new kitchen sink, washing machine and new hob. Will 100% use again for any plumbing needs.

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 10 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.
