Highlights

Had a complex issue with a toilet that wouldn’t flush. As the cistern was hidden, access was very much restricted but Martin handled it with skill. He carefully dismantled all fittings without damaging the tiles, bathroom cabinets or mirrors and proceeded to fix the fault quickly. Martin cut out a section of the bathroom cabinet directly above cistern for easier access to it, supplied and fitted new hose and air button rubber nipple, and tested thoroughly after. He then refitted the access panel and rebuilt cabinet, in a way that’s now far more accessible in the future. Martin’s combined plumbing and building expertise were exactly what was needed. He was also incredibly responsive, coming out the same day and working around my schedule. Very grateful for how efficient and adaptable he was despite his busy schedule. Highly recommend!

The cistern of a back-to-the-wall WC was taking over 1 hour to fill. Martin carefully removed the top of the WC housing unit, cut away a portion of the thick wood framework of the housing to make space to replace a valve that had become ineffective due to limescale. He sourced a suitably flexible replacement valve, and the top of the unit was reassembled. The repair was done without causing damage to any part of the tiled housing unit. The flush system is working perfectly now. We were very fortunate that Martin had the skills available to alter the wooden framework to make the repair. Another plumber who had looked at the problem was unwilling to attempt the job.

This was a very positive experience from first engagement to completion. Zero fuss whilst handling multiple tasks in one of our properties.

Excellent all round experience with Martin. No fuss, just solved the problems we needed solving efficiently with good communication and explanation. Would highly recommend.

Experienced, effective and pleasant

Martin supplied and fitted a new outside tap to the front of our terraced house that I share with the owners of the basement flat. He is an excellent communicator and helpful, drawing up a schedule and budget we could between us agree to. He tested all the pipework on completion. I am very happy with his work, and highly recommend him to others.

Excellent work

Martin did a great job replacing my boiler. He was punctual and courteous. I’m very happy with the result and thoroughly recommend Toogood.

Exactly what was needed

My central heating stopped working totally. Contacted Martin due to reviews on this site. He came back fast to say that he could make a visit the next day. He confirmed and then arrived on time. Carried out a repair including having to go to buy a part. All working perfectly and at a very fair price. He has restored my faith in great service in Central London. Hassle-free, a very fair price and a really good guy too. Would totally recommend and have saved his details in case I have any plumbing or central heating needs in the future.

Friendly & efficient

Martin recently helped us with two plumbing issues—a leaking tap and a central heating problem. He arrived with everything needed to complete the job, including a new tap, and installed it quickly. He also identified and resolved the heating issue on the spot, saving us from unnecessary and costly repairs. In person, Martin is a clear and friendly communicator, happy to explain what he’s doing and answer any questions. His work was efficient and to a high standard. I would definitely recommend him and will be calling him again for any future plumbing or heating needs.

Installing a water pump and boiler service

Martin came round at the time he said he would in order to assess the work and then a week later undertake it. The main work was installing a water pump for a shower, but there was also a need to service the boiler and repair deal with some other plumbing issues. I had used Martin before to deal with a leaking macerator, which he did quickly and competently, so I was confident about using him again, and I am glad I did. The work was well done, to a high standard, and he left the place tidy, as well. I would unhesitatingly recommend him.

Great

Martin recently replaced the toilet in our bathroom. It wasn't a straightforward job as it involved dismantling the old cabinet concealing the cistern, fitting new pipework, and creating and painting a new backboard and piece of flooring to fill the gaps where the old cabinet had been, all in a very small space without much room to work. Martin took his time to think through and explain the possible solutions to me before we agreed on this work. He arrived right on time and did an excellent job, keeping me updated on progress throughout the day. He took away the old toilet, cistern etc and left the bathroom and our shared hallway very tidy - better than any other contractor we've ever used. The price was exactly as per the quote given, with one addition which we agreed on the day so it was not a surprise. Would definitely recommend Martin and use his services again.

Faulty Toilet

Made an appointment with above tradesman to come and fix toilet. Appointment was for a Tuesday afternoon. He did not turn up, no phone call, no text message, nothing. Not recommended.

Reliable Friendly Problem-solver

Martin has serviced boilers, replaced water tanks. He solves problems [why was there no cold water coming to any of the top floor taps] He responds to calls promptly, came to help with a washing machine which, in fact, I should have sorted myself and did not want to charge. His charges are reasonable, work is clean, efficient, friendly.

Really prompt, pleasant and efficient

Martin repaired our leaking toilet. He identified the problem, purchased the parts required, and completed the job within two hours. He communicated well, arrived at the agreed time, was pleasant and polite and did a good job in a short time. The amount charged seemed reasonable. I would recommend him to anyone in the area.

Skilled and reliable plumber

Martin's helped us with several jobs modernising our terrace flat. From small tasks like replacing taps and a sink plug, to moving a radiator, plumbing our new kitchen and replacing a section of damaged exterior waste water pipe. Martin's knowledgeable, punctual and clearly explained the requirements for each job. He also works very hard. Highly recommended!

Reliable, good and efficient service

I have used Martin Toogood's service twice. First to replace a faulty WC filling valve and more recently to install a new WC and washbasin in the cloakroom including removing the old fittings. The work was carried out very efficiently. We had to delay the installation of the new fittings because more tiling was required. Martin readily fitted in with our new schedule. He has always arrived on site when promised. I have no hesitation in recommending Toogood Plumbing.

Very helpful and great service

Our boiler was losing pressure every few hours. Martin was incredibly friendly and quick to respond. He kept to the times he said he’d be able to visit and was very helpful and clear what the issue was. He returned after the parts arrived and came back to finish the job. Helpful, great service and efficient. Thank you.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

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 register
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.
