Customer reviews

Cannot recommend their services enough - Joe was fantastic! Friendly competent and knowledgeable - exactly what we wanted and not at all what we had experienced from other companies! EXCELLENT 10/10.

Alex, West Ealing, W13
The booking process was clear and efficient. The plumber who arrived was really helpful, conscientious and thorough. He was very personable and super polite, even taking his shoes off before treading on the stair carpet rather than me having to ask.

Aylsa, Chiswick, W4
Very happy with the service. The plumber identified the problem quickly, had the spare part in his van and replaced it quickly. Nice guy and great customer service. Thank you.

Gill, Charing Cross, WC2

Don’t get hit with unexpected repair costs

The cost of replacing plumbing or fixing problems is something that most property owners want to budget for well in advance.

The findings and recommendations of a pre-purchase plumbing survey could allow for smaller issues to be fixed and prevent them from becoming larger problems in the future.

This pro-active approach could help you avoid emergency callouts. It might also help you to negotiate on the purchase price if the property is in need of plumbing work.
