Highlights
"Matt came and looked at all three jobs, gave me a prompt quote, which I accepted and came straight back with a date and time to do the job. He arrived on time, did a wonderful job and tidied up after himself. Thanks Matt"
"Competitive prices and excellent service. Matt turned up on the day at the time he said he would arrive. Replaced 3 radiators that were different sizes and after he had finished you wouldn't have known this. Amended the pipework to fit the new radiators. Cleaned up as he went along. If I ever need any other work doing I will definitely be going to Matt first. Would definitely recommend."
"Excellent service from start to finish. Matt came out to quote for the job, advised me on what shower unit (power rating) to go for and we settled on a price (which was more than reasonable). The work was carried out on the agreed date at the agreed price even though more work than thought was required (the new showers water feed was on the opposite side to the old one meaning that pipes and electrical cables had to be moved). This was not an issue, Matt who just cracked on with the job. He explained everything throughout, was chatty and friendly and left my bathroom tidier than when he started."

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.
