I’d asked Dave to install some replacement taps and push-up plug hole. He replied quick and arrived promptly. The work was done very efficiently and he was honest in his advice. First class service!

Dave is really knowledgeable and went above and beyond to fix what would have been a difficult repair for us. I would not hesitate to recommend Dave and will be asking him for all of our future jobs too.

I have used David for in excess of 15 years to take care of the heating systems within the 12 rental apartments I manage. Jobs big to small; full heating system installations to replacement taps. His time keeping is good and he is a popular contractor with our tenants. I have always found him to be polite, capable and trustworthy. I use him whenever I can.

Dave arrived on time and completed the works on the same day. We are particularly happy with the pipe work, and how tidy he was; it's obvious that he takes a great deal pride in his work. He is also very personable and he offered us sound advice on location of the boiler and talked us through how programme the central heating and how to check and adjust thr boiler pressure.

Superb job as always. David helps us every year with our Boiler Service and Gas Certificate and we have also used his services for various other plumbing and central heating jobs. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend David. He carries out his work with great expertise and with a minimum of fuss. He is very tidy, professional, polite, reliable and also a superb and very knowledgeable plumber and central heating engineer.

I had installed a tap but had noticed a slow leak. I posted a job on CheckATrade and was contacted by Joe almost immediately, I had not realised that I had used him before, and he arranged for Dean to come round. He gave an indicative time and when he didn't make it he apologised and called shortly afterwards. The leak was quickly fixed and the job was reasonably priced.

I had a leaking boiler with inconsistent water pressure and was unable to put on heating without making the issue worse. This was causing me alarm. On Saturday through the Vaillant repairs hub, I found David and he responded the next day (Sunday) to book an appointment. First thing Monday he came to fix the issue. David gave consistent and insightful feedback whilst highlighting and eventually correcting the issue in a prompt timeframe. Leaving no room for any anxieties. If any more issues come up, I’ll be sure to come to you first. Couldn’t be happier, thank you for your help.

David's depth of experience, broadly-based knowledge of the subject matter and systematic approach to the work left me confident that the boiler was safe and fit for purpose following his visit. I will definitely ask him to service my boiler next year. A pleasure to do business with.

I was very happy with David’s work and he did a great job replacing an old gas boiler and radiators. He takes time explaining what is required and is very helpful and understanding. I was very impressed by the quality of work and would highly recommend him.

The old stopcock was seized so David removed it and replaced it and also replaced the scale reducer filter. He was very efficient - there was no mess or water leaking - and the new stopcock works perfectly. He also tightened a nut on the outside tap to stop a small leak, and inspected the loft water tank to check for a leaking inlet. He will be replacing the ballcock shortly.

This wasn't as straightforward as it should have been as the pipes were all rusted and had previously been connected incorrectly, possibly by the original builder. It was all sorted out and correctly connected, and the pipes were replaced. Great service.

The thermostat in our shower needed replacing, we had tried other companies who could not find a replacement part and dragged the work out for weeks without fixing the shower. David visit once, found the part and ordered it. There was a few supply issues but he stuck out the order and managed to source the part and fixed the shower as soon as it arrived. Very good service.

I had no hot water and the boiler was making a sinister clicking sound. David was busy but came around on a Sunday. He initially thought it might be the printer circuit board (the brain of the computer - so my boiler had a brain tumour) but then realised it was the pump. What really impressed me was that David sourced a refurbished pump at only £80 as opposed to about £300 for a new one. He was so friendly, cheerful and obviously really knows what he is doing. The overall price was much lower than I thought - he was generous with his time and I couldn't recommend him more highly.

I first hired David in 2022 to repair my leaking machine. David was accommodating with day/time, he was thorough and took time to make sure that everything was perfect. He was polite and friendly, which is always a plus! Because the experience was so positive, I asked him a few months later for a quote for a new boiler. David took time to look around and find the best option for me at a very good price. He installed the boiler a few weeks later, and again, his professionalism and attention to detail were remarkable! The boiler is perfect! I can only recommend David!
