Brilliant work from Gareth. Communication fantastic throughout the job and extremely patient with some of our additional asks. Bathroom looks incredible and our plumbing system has been modernised with the unvented cylinder, with Gareth even removing our old cold water tanks in the attic. Would highly recommend for general plumbing or bathroom renovations.Verified reviewerJob location: EH5410 Replaced tiles with waterproof panels and fitted new shower.

Probably the best communication I've ever had from a tradesman. Gave good advice and prompt at replying. Fitted the job in for me quicker than expected. Completed the job quickly and cleaned up afterwards. Would recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: EH5410 Cistern constantly filling, shut off valve failed!

This happened quickly and I was unable to isolate the water supply. Managed to prevent major leaking but it was only a matter of time before this was would become a catastrophe. Having called 5 plumbers and got no sympathy to my situation, I luckily got Gareth. He listened to me and understood the stressful situation I was in. I sent him pictures he asked for so he could confirm parts etc, he told me a time and was there as agreed and saved the day! He came after his appointments as I was clearly in a state. This was top quality customer service. I won’t use anyone else now!Verified reviewerJob location: EH4910 Complete bathroom upgrade
