    Great service

    Posted 1 day ago

    Went on CheckaTrade at 7 am to look for someone to repair our electric shower, had a response from The Plumber by 8, had options to book the same day or later, booked for the afternoon, Elliot arrived as planned, identified the fault really quickly. We needed a new shower which I ordered, he collected then came back and fitted. Polite, friendly service and really happy with the work, would use again. Thank you!

    Excellent service

    Posted 3 days ago

    This is the second time I have used The Plumber and both times I received quick and efficient responses to my enquiry. The price of the work is very good. Ben came today to fix a dripping tap which due to the location of the pipes was slightly tricker than fixing a normal tap, Ben managed to sort a way of gaining easier access to the pipes should anyone need to do so in the future. I wasn’t charged any extra for this additional work. I would use The Plumber again without hesitation and happy to recommend their service to anyone.

    The plumber was professional and friendly. He made a thorough assessment of the problem and explained the options clearly. He was respectful of my home and completed the work to a high level.

    Ceiling Leak

    Posted 13 March

    This is my second time having a plumbing issue sorted with the company and once again, I’m really happy with the result. They came out within a few hours of my inquiry. Ben identified the issue immediately, talked me through the solution and fitted a permanent fix for the problem. Service was fast, neatly done and Ben was very nice. Thank you once more!
