Detailed reviews
Although the plumber was courteous and punctual, the pricing structure was presented in a misleading way. Half-hour rates were quoted, while a minimum one-hour booking was applied without this being made sufficiently clear. This resulted in a charge that felt disproportionate to the work carried out and raised concerns about the company’s pricing practices.
Plumber arrived and inspected job, said new cartridges needed for shower, went away to try and buy them, returned over an hour later saying not in stock and had to be ordered. Wanted payment upfront and card reader was broken. When contacted later said perts had arrived and would come back to finish. Three appointments later no show at all, stopped answering messages. Contacted office who said they would investigate, no response at all since.
Absolutely diabolical. Not professional at all. And left me without a working shower. Didn’t come back to fix the problem as he said he would. Complete waste of time. Do not recommend this company at all. It’s a call centre and they’re obviously not checking the plumbers they’re using.

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.
