recommendations for reliable good plumber please

Hello. I would like to recommend Dave from Down the Drain - 07919 107868. We'd been trying to get a plumber to improve the shower pressure (we live on the top floor of a block of flats) for ages, and had had quite a bit of trouble finding someone. But Dave came to do it on a Saturday morning and finished in a couple of hours. Did a really good job, and the pressure is great now. Would definitely recommend.

Gushing praise from me for Dave (from Down the Drain). To add to all the others on various threads on the forum. We had a blocked kitchen sink that wasn't responding to anything. Even One Shot (terrifying stuff) - which melted the plug hole. Disaster. I was dreading the news that we needed to have the whole kitchen ripped out and pipes replaced. Instead - Dave fixed it in 20 minutes. I honestly think he prides himself on doing it as quickly as he is able to - and says that this is the way to keep your customers. He also has every piece of high tech equipment you can imagine - which helps!

Really, really nice guy. No mess, very honest and friendly and charges are fair. I had to stop myself from hugging him as he left!

    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
