Can anyone recommend a plumber?

Hello,


I was wondering if anyone could recommend a plumber in the area. I have had a bad experience in the past with plumbers and so am really looking for someone who comes highly recommended.


I need 3 radiators reconnected to my heating system and my boiler serviced.


If anyone could help, I would be very grateful.


Thanks,

Natalie

I also really recommend John 07977 909339. Reliable, honest and knows what he's doing - as verified by my brother who is also a plumber by trade. He came over at the time he said he was going to and cares about doing a good job at a good price.


Thumbs up to honest tradesmen!(tu)

Just used Maurice on the strength of the forum's recommendations. What a star. had infinite patience with a blockage in the plumbing from hell in our kitchen. Persevered over the course of 2 days and was extremely reasonable and a true gent.

Just used Maurice who sorted a leaking stop cock, job turned out to more difficult and time consuming than first imagined but he got it sorted with no fuss and stuck by his original quote.


Very fairly priced and a pleasant chap, will use again and can definitely recommend.

Hi


I've lived in east Dulwich for 5 years and I have always used Jeremy at www.greengage.me.UK. His mobile is 07920 045 292.


He has moved radiators, installed a new boiler and even come out on Christmas eve to fix a burst pipe. He also fitted our bathroom. He is approachable and reliable, does high quality work and is always happy to help and advise.


He does a lot of work for new builds so his work is good and he will always try to fit you in.


Whenever we have used others it has been a disaster so he comes highly recommended.

I am afraid I must withdraw my recommendation of Mourad of MK Heating and Plumbing. I discovered the day after his service that I had neither heat nor hot water. After attempting to telephone, text and email Mourad all day, he eventually phoned that night to say he could do nothing about the problem as he was in Nigeria. Although his situation was understandable and perhaps even forgivable, the accusation that he levelled at me was certainly not, and caused me a great deal of distress, particularly as I was not well.


I then telephoned John (07977 909399) who, although booked for the evening, came round at about 11pm and sorted out the problem with no difficulty and at a much more reasonable price. It appeared that Mourad had not finished the job properly and this had caused the problem. The boiler had in fact given me no problems for many years and was working perfectly before Mourad serviced it, except for an unfamiliar noise, which is why I had decided to have the service.


I was really impressed by the professionalism, competence and friendliness of John and his assistant. I shall certainly be using their services in the future.

From the recommendations in this thread, I contacted Maurice. I want to recommend him HIGHLY. I often feel nervous about choosing a tradesman, because I don't feel I know enough about the jobs to be done to feel confident that I'm being charged the right amount, that the job's being done properly etc. Anyway, Maurice was extremely helpful, a lovely manner, reasonably priced, and fixed the leaking toilet brilliantly, as well as sorting out a few little problems with the mechanism in the tank that I hadn't noticed. I will certainly be using him again! Thanks, everyone, for the recommendation.

I also highly recommend John. He went to fix my elderly mother's blocked sink and not only is he very good at his job, he is a very nice man. We will definitely call on his services again. His mobile number is 07977909339

    • I think insurance scams do happen but I thought there had been a crackdown on them recently. In the past insurance companies seemed to just pay out and everyone's premium goes up to cover it. My partner was a victim a few years ago, she was parking and touched a bumper of the next car. There was no mark and the other driver just waved my partner away. A month later we received a letter claiming there were four people in the other car and two of them were so badly injured they could not work. Our insurer was a rare one that actually fought the case and pretty much on the steps of the court the scammers "dropped hands" and case was closed. i thought at the time that was a good result but I later saw that my insurer had run up a £2000 legal bill and didn't get to ask for costs as there was no court case – we didn't have to pay it but again, it's this sort of thing that pushes all premiums up. And no action was taken against the other party despite them clearly being scammers who were revealed to have done this before and had effectively admitted their own statements were a pack of lies. Sorry to hijack your thread, just getting this off my chest as your post brought it all flooding back!
