    First-Class Service from Start to finish!!

    Posted 6 days ago

    I recently had my shower replaced by Watkins Plumbing and couldn’t be happier with the service. From start to finish they were professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. The finish was excellent, everything was completed to a high standard, and they left everything clean and tidy afterwards. Nothing was too much trouble, and they took the time to explain everything clearly….i would 100% recommend Watkins Plumbing to anyone looking for reliable, honest, and high-quality plumbing work. Thank you again for doing such a fantastic job!

    Responsive, reliable and transparent. Excellent service.

    Posted 03 June

    I contacted check a trade to enquire about the availability of local plumbers to come and assess a leaking overflow pipe. Watkins Plumbing and Heating responded to my request very promptly. Within all correspondence they were responsive, answered questions with transparency and maintained communication which was very helpful. On the day they arrived promptly, assessed the issue and were able to fix the problem, communicating clearly what they were doing and why. Overall, excellent service. Many thanks!
