Plumber recommendation


Linzi_77

Recommended Posts

I just moved into a new flat and had a problem with my plumbing. My electrician recommended Niko, and without a better option, I texted him straight away. He responded immediately (a rarity these days, I find), was flexible with his availability, turned up at the time specified, did the job he was required to do which included a trip to buy parts on my behalf, went above and beyond both in his work and in his general advice for me as a first time buyer in a Local Authority block and his advice for me refitting my kitchen and bathroom(which I was very grateful for!), was approachable, professional, and reasonably priced.


I highly recommend him as reliable, competent, friendly and not intimidating, and above all, a fair price for a job well done. He used to work for various councils, so he's familiar with all sorts of properties, and all sorts of problems.


His number is 07818 607583.

I'd just like to add a recommendation for Niko. He came out to us within the hour and solved a leaking bath and broken shower quickly, efficiently and at a very reasonable charge. He was pleasant and professional....and very patient with an over-enthusiastic toddler trying to empty his toolkit. Would highly recommend him. He can be contacted on 07818 607583.

And another glowing recommendation! Niko came round on a Saturday within 20 minutes of my call, advised me that I didn't need half the work that I thought I did (saving me a lot of money), and spent ages trying to fix a tricky problem with my loo. Then would only take ?30 for his visit, since he hadn't been able to completely sort it to his satisfaction.


But very much sorted to MY satisfaction.

I would like to add a further recommendation for Niko. He did a great job fixing some plumbing issues with our toilet and bath. He also noted a couple of outstanding DIY jobs in the bathroom which we hadn't got around to doing and asked if I would like him to do them. He also went out about bought the parts we needed to fix the toilet. This was all done very swiftly and efficiently.


He was also very friendly and explained things clearly to me and called my husband later to talk through the work he had done.


Thank you!

I want to add a further recommendation for Niko - he came around to fix my toilet flush at really short notice, was quick, efficient and not expensive. He could have replaced the entire cistern, but managed to fix the problem using his skill and expertise so that I didn't have to fork out for a replacement.


He followed up with a phone call to check everything is ok and I would 100% use his services again. Top guy!


Thank you Niko!

Another recommendation for Niko from me. He's just come around this morning (a Sunday) after I called yesterday with a bit of an emergency. All our cold taps jammed and we needed them fixed before going away for a few days. Niko has just finished and got everything working perfectly. Prompt, really nice bloke and really good value as well. He also talked us through the issue so we knew exactly what was wrong and what he was doing.


Will definitely be giving him a call if we have any future issues.


Cheers Niko,


John and Lucy

I would too like to add another recommendation for Niko. Niko previously came to visit me too last year when 5 separate plumbers were called to solve a problem with a leaky sink. Niko was eventually the 6th plumber who sorted the problem straight away and knew exactly what it was. I remembered how straight down the line and knowledgable he was that I called him again a few weeks ago to sort out a father in law DIY disaster. He came round in the evening at a time that suited me and fixed 2 leaky basin taps, sealed the basin plug hole, and fixed a the trap that was leaking. He spent a bit of time, crotching under the tiny sink and only charged us ?40. The best thing was he was so bothered by a previous plumbers messy work, he even spent a bit of time tidying that up too. I will without a doubt be using this guy again in the future!

Another recommendation for Niko (07818607583). I called him this afternoon re a blocked drainage pipe and he was able to come around this evening to sort it out, which he did very effectively and for a very reasonable price. Friendly, professional and with a great knowledge of the plumbing in our building (a sixties council flat), he was able to sort the problem at once and happily we are able to shower again. Many thanks Niko!

I was very impressed that when I phoned him yesterday Niko came out right away - I had found his details on ED forum (07818607583). He obtained the parts required and carried out the work on my kitchen sink today. I am very pleased that the job was done so quickly and neatly and at a reasonable price.


With many thanks.

I can also highly recommend Niko (07818607583). After calling to sort a fix on a leaking toilet pipe, Niko came round first thing this morning (although he also offered to come out late that evening) and sorted everything neatly and quickly and a really reasonable price. He took the time to explain the problem and we felt more than reassured. Will definately be using Niko again.


Thanks!

I would also wholeheartedly recommend Niko as a plumber. He was at our place within an hour, last Saturday morning, when i called him with an emergency plumbing and drainage issue. The national specialists who advertise a 24/7 service couldn't attend for 2 days! Niko was very knowledgable, very friendly and very courteous. He fixed our problems and a few other things and explained everything simply and clearly so we would understand what he was doing and why.


Thanks,

Esmurphy

If you approach anyone for help with plumbing locally then make sure you include John Powers in your search. He could not be better, based on his mending a broken-down boiler for us over one of the coldest weekends in February. He came when he said he would come. He explained everything that needed doing and he even rang the day after his final visit to check all was okay. And that has never happened with any plumber I have had in before. He was also very reasonable and did everything he could, it seemed to me, to keep the costs down.


Here are his details:

I would like to recommend Niko as well; I moved into the new flat just over the weekend, after first cooking and realized the leakage under the sink; I called Niko on Monday afternoon after reading all the recommendation he had; He immediately called me back and offered to help me within 30 mins since he is just around the area. When he came over, he was very pleasant and knew exactly what he does. Not only he finished his job and also gave me some very good advise on maintaining the property.


Highly recommended!


Thanks, Niko...

If you are in need of a plumber - I highly recommend Niko (07818 607 583) too. He definitely went above and beyond this evening clearing our blocked drains. He explained the causes, and ways to avoid similar the problems in the future. Everything was sorted out efficiently with no disruption. Thanks once again Niko!

Niko the plumber (mob: 07818 607 583) has just sorted out my kitchen tap after coming at really short notice (and on a Saturday!). He was prompt, professional, tidy, and very helpful reasonably priced.


What else could you ask for from a plumber? Thanks Niko!

Another thumbs up for Niko the plumber. I got home late to find my toilet cistern wouldn't stop filling and was leaking from the overflow pipe. I left Niko a message early on Sat. morning asking for help after reading feedback on the Forum. Although I managed to solve the problem myself before Niko called me back, he offered to come out free-of-charge to check it was okay & put my mind at rest that the problem wouldn't reoccur before my planned bathroom refurb went ahead next week. I'll be keeping his number for future emergencies.

Would like to add to this thread with a recommendation for Niko. He called me back very quickly after I contacted him yesterday and came out within a couple of hours to fix a leak under the kitchen sink and faulty radiator. I asked him for his opinion on a dodgy sink plug mechanism while he was there and he fixed that too! Great service and very reasonable price for so many jobs too.


He can be contacted on 07818 607583.

Another satisfied customer of Niko's! We've just moved in to a new flat to find the kitchen sink leaking all over the place. We called him after finding him on the Forum, and he was there that afternoon. He replaced some parts, unblocked some pipes, fixed some taps and gave us a full appraisal of the plumbing in our new place, all for a very reasonable fee.

He's very knowledgeable, very friendly, and we wouldn't think twice about asking him over again.


Cheers Niko.

    • Hi Everyone   My aunt had a horrible fall at East Dulwich station last Thursday on 11th April.  She has suffered significant injuries and was helped by 2 kind passers by whom we would really like to thank. We also want to know if anyone saw her fall/ knows what happened as my aunt cannot recall and it would be useful for her family to know in terms of future planning.  If you are or know the passers by who assisted, called paramedics and comforted her, please do reach out - we would love to thank you.  Equally, if you happened to be there or see what happened please message and let me know.   Thanks
    • what is the status of your company? is it formally closed, yet the bank account is open? How are you planning on extracting the funds from the company account?  Do you have your emails from a personal email account? Is there any indication that it is a business sale, other than a business bank account - did you tell them it was a business bank account - does the bank account you gave them have a different name?   
    • Can anyone help / offer advice, please? I just sold a fairly rare and quite valuable vintage knitting machine and accessories to a business as a private sale to a business. It's run a couple who specialise in repairing and reselling secondhand knitting machine parts. I tested the machine and accessory prior to selling and both were working. The business has just texted me with a fairly aggressive message to say 'it can't be working as part of it is missing' and that the pattern reading accessory does not work. I know that both parts were working when I handed them over, so it is just their word against mine. (I haven't replied to ask what part is missing yet) When they arrived to pick up, the owner said he needed to do 'due diligence' ie to open the case of the machine and check it was all there. He did all that and did not mention anything was missing at that point. They paid by bank transfer on pickup. Unfortunately for me, I got them to pay into my business ac (even though I no longer run a business and am retired, I still have the account) and now they say because they paid to a business ac they can dispute the payment. I did get them to sign a delivery note with a list of items that they were buying  but I did not specify 'bought as seen' on the note. How does it work when it's one person's word against another? I originally found the business online and emailed them with the details and photos. They had good reviews for selling items (but no reviews re: buying items) The owner always replied by phone rather than email so although I have notes of our conversations I do not have anything in writing from him. I'm feeling angry at having trusted them and also upset - textile design was my career before I retired and I wish I'd just given the machine to a charity now1 Any helpful advice much appreciated!
