Highlights
“An absolute gentlemen and the most honest person I've come across. I had some cracks in one area due to higher heat in that room and an area where paint and some weardown due to an old leak: Richard came over, checked everything gave advise on what to do and didn't even charge a penny for it. The issues I had are totally fixable and require some filling / painting. Not only that, he's genuinely just a really nice person. We need more Richard's in the World!”

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.
