A very prompt response from Sam . Work required was to replace a kitchen tap, amend some pipe work and instal . Sam appraised me of what was required to do the work, provided an explanation in laymen terms of why the proposed instal had to be done in a certain way , He arrived on time, having provided me with a time of arrival beforehand, as well as determining the materials required before hand. Defiantly worth you considering him to do your plumbing. In fact, he mat well be doing a new shower install for me.Verified reviewerJob location: BA4 10 Luxury bathroom suites

Job location: BA4We recently used Sam for our bathroom projects, he replaced our en-suite and our family bathroom, from the moment we met Sam we knew he was experienced and confident but also very transparent with costs, his attention to detail and work ethic is second to none and I won’t use any other plumber in future! He wasn’t the cheapest quote we received but seeing his resume and how he explained the job made us confident in him. Great craftsman, nice bloke we highly recommend!!9.67 Macerator replacement

I contacted Sam on Sunday and within an hour we had a time and date in the diary with a clear explanation of cost, materials and time involved. Sam ensured he understood the problem and was clear in his explanation of how to proceed, he managed my expectations and, jumping ahead to after the replacement of a pump, he was spot on with his diagnosis. He arrived on time and undertook the work quickly, with professionalism and no mess. First rate service and a very experienced and pleasant man whose charges are transparent and reasonable. I can highly recommend Sam The Plumber.Verified reviewerJob location: BA10

Hello, I am Sam the Plumber.
I am a Somerset based plumber who specialises in bathroom installations & repairs.
I have 16 years of experience and have worked for some of the largest companies in the UK.
I started my journey in social housing before moving into the private sector where I managed large projects and trained multiple apprentices.
I cover a vast range of plumbing and heating works but mainly specialise in bathroom renovations, repairs, restorations and general plumbing.
No job is too big or small and is always carried out to the best of my ability.
I pay a meticulous attention to detail ensuring the quality of my finish is unmatched both on show and concealed with a long guarantee provided.
What you see is what you get, I want to keep my business small to ensure my clients receive the best service possible.
You will communicate directly with me throughout your whole experience from answering the first call, providing you with a quotation through to carrying out the entire works and billing.
On a bathroom project I will carry out virtually every aspect of the installation myself I.e. Plumbing, Tiling & building works and only use specialist trades such as carpenters/joiners, plasterers and electricians to ensure a high standard is kept throughout every element of the project.
I am transparent with pricing, there will never be any hidden costs, all potential outcomes & risks will be explained before work commences with solutions and guidelines provided if such scenarios occur.
If something is out of my remit, I have NO! interest in taking your money I will just refer you to an appropriate recommended contractor, I have built up a network of recommended tradespeople throughout my years on the tools and will refer you directly.
Repeat business and happy clients mean more to me than quick money and a dishonest living, I am aware of the reputation tradespeople have and the anxiety around having works done in your home, so I try to remove some of the stigma towards us.
I am fully insured & pride myself on a friendly, honest, transparent and easy service to ensure you feel safe within your own property during my time there and with my work afterwards.
Here is a list of work I specialise in:
- General plumbing & Maintenance
- Hot water cylinder replacements
- Bathroom installations
- Wet room installations
- Insurance repairs
- Tiling
- Leak detection
- Central heating
- Emergency call out
- Toilets
- Showers
- Shower pumps
- Garden tap installations
- Water softener installations
- Boiling water tap installations
- Mains accumulator pumps installations
- Domestic hot & cold water
- Waste pipe repairs
- Soil stack repairs/ installations
- Power flushing
Work I do not carry out:
- Gas works
- Boiler repairs/installations
- Below ground drainage repairs
- Water main works (from meter/external stopcock to point of entry)
- Electrical fault finding
- Renewable energy
