## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Wayne was excellent he had never fitted this kind of toilet seat before but read the paper and measured the seat so that I was ordering the correct size shape then fitted it when it arrived and arranged to fit over the weekend which saved me taking time off work. I was pleased with his work as I had contacted a few plumbers who wouldn't even try to fit. I have had no problems since the fitting what he quoted me was what I paid so very happy"

> "I had a burst pipe under the bath. I originally called the insurers '24 hour emergency plumber'. When he eventually came he turned the water off and said he couldn't replace the pipe as the taps are in the corner and difficult to reach. He would have to take the bath out which would probably damage the tiles and it would be a big job. Thankfully Wayne had a bit more experience and common sense and realised he could reach it from underneath through the collapsed ceiling. He repaired it in no time at all without any fuss and at a very reasonable cost I would certainly recommend him."

> "My neighbour has water leak damage in their flat. Although we didn't think it is from my property, I wanted a plumber to check incase it was. If a leak was detected I would then need it repaired. Wayne checked the outside to see the water damage then thoroughly checked through my kitchen. He confirmed there was no leak and put it in writing for me. A honest plumber."

## 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.
- For the water-regulations side of plumbing, a WaterSafe-approved plumber is vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. You can check yours or find one free at watersafe.org.uk.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
