fantastic plumber and handyman

Nico helped us get our hot water sorted out in the new office at Grove Vale.

He thought the old heater was kaput, brought a new one, and then proceeded to fix the old one!

This saved us ?150 from his quote that provided for a new heater.

What is it about this man?

In a word, AUTHENTICITY.

And another word? LEGEND.

Can I add to these recommendations for Niko. He helped us sort some issues with our bathroom plumbing and went above and beyond the call of duty to help us. He also looked at some issues with our electrics at the same time. He's a lovely guy and extremely competent and reliable. I have no hesitations in recommending him.

Another recommendation for Niko - I had a flood as a result of a botched washing machine installation and Niko was round within the hour. He sorted this and returned the next day (Sat) to install the machine. Reasonable price and lots of useful advice. Very satisfied!

To add to the many positive comments, just wanted to say that Niko is a gift to the people of SE22 and 23. We had a leak from the complicated tap system for the bath/shower and i realised it needed fixing quickly. Having used Niko before for a similar problem, I didn't hesitate to contact him. True to form, he came around at extremely short notice on a Saturday evening, identifying and fixing the problem in record time. All for ?50. If and when we ever move from the area, I want to take him with us!

Having read reviews on the forum, I dropped Niko a text to see if he could help me. He didn't disappoint and I would definitely recommend him.


Niko called me back within minutes and came round that evening to look at what was needed (without any charge). The job wasn't big or urgent, but he still fitted it in around his busy schedule and did a great job (re-sealing a leaky shower). He even popped back a week later to make sure there were no ongoing problems.


I would have no hesitation in using him again and thoroughly recommend him.

I couldn't recommend Niko enough. Friendly, efficient, talks through the problem so you understand what needs to be done and very reasonable. I won't be going elsewhere now for plumbing. Work complete was changing toilet, tiling and finding the problem leak on the shower.

I needed a plumber to fix my shower and after a search on the forum I contacted two that seemed to be highly recommended, of which one was Niko. I left a voice message for both about 5pm this afternoon explaining the problem and asking for a call back. One hasn't replied at all but Niko called me back about an hour later and came round straight away. He fixed the problem and also a leaky tap that I've lived with for so long I'd forgotten about it until he was here. He was friendly and polite and charged me a very reasonable price. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and would definitely use him again.

Hi I used Niko for a small job. It took him less than 10 min for a good job,,to finish however as he hasn't initially clarified the price he was looking to charge me ?40. I found him to be quite expensive and he wasn't keen on giving me a cost which was a downside. Agree a few upfront.

I had a leak coming from the flat above mine last night, I text Nico late in the evening hoping he would come round in the morning, he immediately called and offered to come out straight away but first told me to check the flat upstairs, talked me through what I needed to look for, we found the source, stopped the leak and he never came out and charged me! A genuinely decent guy that I cant talk highly enough of. Next time I have any issues he will be the first person I call.


To reiterate what others have said already... Legend

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
