I found Andrew through Checkatrade and have had him come back twice since as he’s so good! Friendly, excellent communication and practical efficient work. This time he fixed a broken shower tap and gave great advice about how to deal with other tap issues in the future to avoid other issues.

I first used A. Plumbing & Building Services when I was doing some flat renovations last year and needed radiators removing and changing. Andrew is professional, efficient and very easy to communicate with - he has since also replaced and moved some taps in my bathroom, as well as serviced my boiler. Would 100% recommend!Verified reviewerJob location: NW10
