Miles was very professional and was conscious around keeping things clean and tidy which was a big bonus. It was a tough old job replacing the thermostatic valve which had been installed over 10 years prior and took patience to remove and clean the buildup of timescale etc. Would definitely recommend.

Detailed reviews
Miles came around and changed my kitchen taps turned up on time, very polite and tidy. Would recommend.
Miles came to take a look at our malfunctioning shower pump recommended claiming on the warranty which I did not realise was still valid he even spoke to the company to check the installation process, once replacement arrived Miles installed it double quick as we were without a shower. I have now asked him to do more work for us.

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.
