    Bathroom Leaks

    Posted 17 December 2025

    I discovered a leak in my barhroom on a Sunday, JWR Plumbing contacted me really quickly about the job and come out the same day to assess the problem. After completi a tenporary fix to srop the leaks initially while waiting the parts needed, they arranged to come back a couple of says later and completed the job. I was really happy with the work.

    Repairing weather damaged brickwork

    Posted 03 November 2025

    Jamie had to reschedule a few times because of unexpected circumstances, but when he and his team did the work they were extremely good - they stayed on-site longer than expected and then came back the next day to finish off. The standard was very high and he made a point of checking we were happy with the work. We would definitely book him again.

    Radiator Replacement

    Posted 29 October 2025

    Jamie’s a legend – Highly Recommended! We had all our radiators replaced in our very old house with a complicated plumbing setup, and the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Jamie responded to our request very quickly and got everything done to a really high standard. I really appreciated that he took the time to explain how our boiler works, showed us exactly where the water mains are, and even taught me how to turn off the water in case of an emergency. Very professional, knowledgeable and genuinely helpful!

    Unprofessional and unreliable.

    Posted 17 October 2025

    Absolute terrible service. Claims to be professional. Charged an extortionate amount of money for some minor jobs. Asked to fit a bath panel which was siliconed to a cupboard door meaning I couldn’t open the cupboard. Then the other side then half came away. Spent months trying to get this rectified. Chasing - false promises - waiting in all day to be cancelled on last minute. Would not recommend at all.

    Extremely Disappointed

    Posted 11 October 2025

    I used Jamie back in March and left a 10/10 review — I thought he was a reliable, decent plumber. Something has clearly changed. He agreed to handle an insurance job after a small flood in my flat, but it was a complete shambles. He didn’t turn up when promised, the work he did was rushed and poor, and he walked away without finishing — meaning the insurer couldn’t pay him in full. He admitted the job wasn’t good enough and that he wouldn’t accept it in his own home. His attitude was careless and unprofessional. I could go into more detail, but I’ve already wasted enough time on this façade.

My name is Jamie.

I am a multiskilled engineer my core trade is plumbing however I started of life as a landscaper moved to renovations then to plumbing.

I like taking on a variety of jobs I do love fault finding Leaks that are hard to find and damp and mold issues.

I enjoy challenging myself to find the source of the problem.

With many years of experience in all different types of properties and some commercial buildings as well I have a wide knowledge that I feel is key to deal with any job I undertake.

Also working alongside me is an experience bricklayer with over 20 years in blockwork traditional stonework and face brick work

Also have a qualified electrician under me that offers competitive rates


Recently I have joined forces with the crime prevention team to help tackle rogue traders in Bristol my company has been checked and signed off to help people that have been affected by rogue companies to use me as a recommended company to give them a safe contractor
