“Michael attended promptly after my call for help with a serious leak. He had first to trace the leak (no easy task) which he did by removing tiles and digging into the wall. Having traced the leak he repaired it refilled the wall bought and fitted new tiles and returned the following day to grout them He is a superb craftsman, I have no hesitation in recommending him.”

Highlights
“Michael came the same day. Soil pipe replaced, leak fixed. Professionally done. Many thanks.”
“I had a leak from both of the mixer taps for my bathtub and the leak from the hot water tap was particularly bad. After I called and spoke to Michael he came on the same day to view both taps, inspected the pipework for them and recommended that both taps should be replaced with double lever mixer taps because of how old and worn the taps looked. To my amazement, Michael carried out all the necessary work that needed to be done regarding the replacement of both taps, including purchasing new taps for me all on the same day and at a reasonable price. Excellent service and would use 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.
