    Moving a washer and dryer with new cold water and waste connection under kitchen units

    Posted 2 days ago

    Vivek communicated clearly, came and quoted for the work, and was easy to fix an appointment for the job. He planned it carefully, made some helpful cost saving suggestions and my wife was very appreciative of his tidy work.

    Honest and reasonable on price

    VK was very helpful indeed. I have an odd central heating system and he figured it out and got it working. Explained what was going on and gave honest advice. Very reasonable on price. Would thoroughly recommend.

    Fitted a New Column Radiator

    Posted 19 March

    VK Plumbing fitted a New Column Radiator for me. Very happy with the work and was very professional. He made sure I had a fully working central heating system before he left. Well done.

    Outside tap installation

    Posted 09 March

    Excellent service. Posted the job on Saturday and it was completed by Monday, which was great. Communication was clear throughout and he arrived when he said he would. The outside tap has been installed really neatly – the pipework is tidy and everything looks well finished. He was polite, considerate while working, and cleaned up afterwards, which I appreciated. The job was carried out efficiently and exactly as requested. Overall, a very straightforward and professional service. I’d happily recommend him.

    Installing new immersion and thermostat for unvented cylinder

    Posted 09 March

    I requested a quote from VK Plumbing to replace my immersion for an unvented cylinder water heater. Vivek was quick to respond and we exchanged messages where by I provided photos and I was given a quote for the work. Vivek was courteous in responding to my messages and I accepted his quote for the work. On the day Vivek was due, I asked if he could telephone me when he was on his way, which he duly did so can highly recommend his customer service skills. The work was carried out professionally, efficiently and tidily and I have no hesitation in recommending Vivek for your plumbing needs.

    Replaced Immersion heaters for elderly parent

    Posted 05 March

    Vivek was very helpful and professional. A quote was provided in advance and he messaged to advise exact arrival time for the job which was completed as promised. I arranged remotely on behalf of an elderly parent, which is always a worry - so was relieved to find VK plumbing. Thank you, will use again.
