An Excellent Service

An excellent service. Thank you Ross. Our Vaillant boiler had been losing pressure for some time. Having not had great experiences with plumbers and heating engineers in the past, had put off looking for a new one to deal with this problem. Thankfully we found Ross who worked quickly and cleanly, diagnosing and repairing our boiler (including going to get the required parts). Ross is polite, friendly and professional. He explained everything to us. We shall use him for any future needs and have already recommended him and his value for money service to friends.

Great work at a competitive price.

I highly recommend Ross for boiler installation. He provides excellent work at a very competitive price; work was done to schedule and communication was good throughout the process. The stand out factors for me are value for money, a job well done and that Ross is very personable ( so important when someone is in your home all day).

Replacement electric shower

Ross did an excellent job replacing my electric shower. He listened to what I required and fitted the new shower with the minimum of fuss. He was thoroughly professional and the charge was very reasonable. And all completed within 2 days of my initial call! I'll definitely use McGregor Plumbing & Heating again and would highly recommend him.

Great work!

I was recommended to use Ross McGregor for some major plumbing work at my house, dealing with a large water leak. Ross was brilliant and so helpful and knowledgable. I really can’t recommend him highly enough to deal with any sort of plumbing or heating works. All in all, a great job done and great work.

Professional, knowledgeable and great service

I recently had an issue with low pressure in my central heating system and through Which? Trusted Trader contacted McGregor Plumbing and Heating to resolve it. I am extremely pleased with the service they provided. Ross was prompt, arriving exactly when he said he would, keeping me updated by text on his arrival time. His expertise was evident as he explained the possible causes of the low pressure and the steps he would take to diagnose the problem. What stood out the most was Ross's professionalism and friendly demeanour. He spent the time required to test out the system and when it became clear that there was a leak in the pipework in the concrete floor, advised on several ways I could try and locate the leak more precisely. I highly recommend McGregor Plumbing and Heating for any central heating issues. Ross's knowledge, skill, and excellent customer service made sure that I will not hesitate to use him in the future.

Leak to boiler filter

Ross cleaned the boiler filter and fixed the leak. I would highly recommend Ross as he is very knowledgeable and professional , friendly and great value. He also took time to check all the radiator values. I have used Ross before when he installed new taps to our bathroom sink. Ross is lovely family man who takes pride in his work and no job is too small. I will be using Ross for all our plumbing jobs.

Worth checking yourself

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 register
Agree 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.
