## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "First class service from Neil and Alfie - problem was quickly diagnosed and resolved. Minimum disruption and mess and everything cleaned and tidied as if they had never been there. Each stage of the process and problems shared with me and explained so complete transparency throughout. Neil was 2 minutes under the time he quoted me for - that is how well these guys know what they are doing ! Honestly I was dreading the whole process but you can absolutely trust this company to fix your problem. Well done on an outstanding professional service. Thank you"

> "My en-suite shower has occasionally been spilling over the tray to the floor for a while. I regularly remove hair from the drainage plug but today the plug was completely blocked. I knew it was time to call the experts. I found these 'Experts' on Checkatrade. I'm very glad I did. I was lucky as they were in the area and Neil and Alfie fixed the job within the hours charge. It was hair, many years of hair. Nice guys, respected my home. Highly recommend them."

## Before you hire a plumber
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Agree 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.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
- Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
