“Vinay is a thorough professional with no nonsense approach and speaking straight and honestly about the problem at hand. He has good range of real world knowledge around different kinds of boilers, and problems seen in his work experience. Technically he explains the problem, analysis and what is expected to solve it. he also very fairly prices and never overcharges or recommend unwanted things. For me he serviced my heating issues as it was not working but hot water was. He narrowed down the problem and fixed it efficiently . Anybody looking for a reliable plumber, Vinay is the man to go!!”

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.
