James communicated very well with us and is a pleasant person to deal with. We sent him the details of a kitchen tap for his approval before buying it. He promply replied approving it and said he would fit us in as soon as it arrived because of the bad leak in the old tap. He also explained the need to change some parts that were old and rusty. I would be using him again.

We’ve called on James a few times now and he’s always been reliable, professional, and fairly priced. He’s helped us with bleeding radiators, fixing toilets, and even took the initiative to fix our front gate when he noticed it wasn’t closing properly—going above and beyond! He works neatly and efficiently, and it’s clear he takes pride in doing a good job. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a trustworthy local plumber.
