“We have had problems with damp in our underground garage and looked for a local company that could offer advice and talk through the options to solve it. Mark was prompt in booking a site visit, talked through the options, sent over a speedy quotation, quickly answered subsequent queries, and was reassuringly efficient. The works have been completed without fuss, with clear communication throughout, the site left clean and neat, and we are extremely happy with the quality of the work. A good experience all round.”

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.
