10 Toilet cistern issue
Posted 1 day ago
Job location: W10He did his job in one and half hours without any “assessment” visits, such as only taking photos of the site. He came to us on time, very polite and friendly, communication was so smooth.10 Annual boiler check and smart thermostat fitting

I’ve been booking Andrew for years now. He gets the job done and is always tidy and clean. He is always happy to advise on issues too. Highly recommended!Verified reviewerJob location: W1210 Kitchen tap fitting and replacing valve to dishwasher
Posted 09 June
Andrew was punctual, polite and helpful throughout, I can not thank him enough for his service. Prior to the appointment I was made aware of the breakdown for potential pricing providing full clarity. My new kitchen tap has been fitted beautifully and the piping / plumbing underneath the sink looks professionally neat. Unfortunately a part was required to fit my new tap that I did not have, Andy immediately went to a Plumbing Merchant nearby to get the part required to complete the installation. Will now look to A.Plumbing as my 'go to' plumber from now on.Verified reviewerJob location: W410 Blocked drainage for dishwasher & fitting of filter for drinking water

Andrew has done multiple jobs for me on a house that I bought ranging from a boiler service to addressing some unexpected shower repairs and even replacing drain pipes on the side of the house. Every time Andrew has explained to me exactly what he needed to do and why. I completely trust him and would recommend him to anyone!Verified reviewerJob location: W1210 Top service, yet again from Andrew
