“Mindaugas from MP Gas and Plumbing has been absolutely brilliant. He first installed Hive systems in two of my properties, and I was really impressed with his professionalism, attention to detail, and the quality of his work. I later asked him to fit a new boiler and another Hive in a different property, once again, he did an excellent job. He’s punctual, friendly, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. His prices are very reasonable for the level of service he provides. It’s rare to find someone so reliable and knowledgeable these days. I can highly recommend Mindaugas.”

Highlights
“Recently had my boiler serviced, system power flushed and a filter fitted. Also a new pipe run from my upstairs boiler to a downstairs radiator which hadn’t worked for over 4 year, without any drastic cutting into walls and ceilings. Very knowledgable, friendly and trustworthy. Highly recommended. Will be using again for my annual boiler service.”

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 9 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.
