Highlights
“Martin arrived at nine, and introduced himself. Showed him to the bathroom, where the shower wasn't working. Within the hour I not only had a new shower, but the bathroom had been cleaned up, and all for a very good price. Martin was very professional and friendly. Will definitely use him again”
“Martin responded promptly to our call and initially offered to come out immediately. As we had “contained” the leak we asked him to come first thing the next morning which he duly did. He swiftly diagnosed the problem and advised the cause of the issue. He then repaired and resolved. He kept us informed throughout and also provided guidance on post resolution treatment. Great Service….would recommend”

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.
