We had an escape of water this week and it's already fixed. David, who was snowed under with work, came out that day and then Brad came to replace the pipes this morning. Superb response, friendly, knowledgeable & heard our concerns over COVID in our hour of need! No hesitation of recommending!

I called Dave on a Saturday about a leak on our toilet inlet pipe. Even though he is supposed to finish at 1pm, he came round to see the problem within one and a half hours! He had the part required on the van and fixed it for us immediately. Very professional, very considerate and all for a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend him.
