Plumber recommendation

Recommended Posts

Just to add to the Nico appreciation society, we called him to fix our leaking dishwasher after seeing the recommendations on here. He promptly called back after we left a message and came round the next day (it wasn't an emergency).


Nico was very friendly, quick and reasonable. Will certainly use him again.

Yet another recommendation for Niko.


I got Niko?s number from this forum and called him out to fix a couple of small issues in our bathroom (leaking bath tap, crack in the external pipe that drains the bath). He was able to come round soon after and fixed both issues.


As others have already said, Niko is happy to explain his approach and give advice on all other plumbing matters. I have since had him back to fit a new shower unit and fix a toilet flush.


He is thorough, thinks laterally to solve any issues and ensures you are happy with the work he has done before leaving. There is no call-out charge, his rates are fair and he often has any necessary parts with him.


I would not hesitate to recommend Niko. I am so pleased to have found a decent, reliable and reasonable plumber and will definitely use him again.

Niko the Plumber: 07818 607583

I can also recommend Niko. We had a leak under our kitchen sink last week. I found Niko's number here on the forum and called him. He was busy with some other jobs but still agreed to come for a quick visit to have a look. If it were another plumbing company, they'd charge me ?60 just for that, but Niko doesn't charge for call-outs.


He had a look at the problem, advised us on what needed to be done and then came late in the evening to fix it. Very reasonable price and also gave us lots of free advice on some other jobs around the house. He even followed up with a call to check if the leak's ok a few days later.


Quality service from a friendly guy. No wonder so many people are recommending him!

I can completely endorse these recommendations for Nico - he phoned and came round within the hour on bank holiday Monday and then again tonight to do the work. Very friendly, helpful and reasonable cost. I'll definitely keep him in mind for other jobs and would recommend others do the same.

I would also recommend Nico - if you can track him down.


We've been trying to get hold of him for weeks - he did a lovley job fixing a burst pipe for us and loaned us a dehumidifier to help dry out the mess, but has not been back for it and can't get through to him.


I hope he is okay...

Nico was highly recommended to me by a friend and also I had seen all of his fabulous recommendations on the forum. Therefore when my husband accidentally ripped the cold water tap of our bath from the wall tonight, I knew who to call straight away. Nico was brilliant, he came by within an hour and quickly fixed it, and didn't charge very much considering it was Sunday evening, when I'm sure many would have charged a lot more or not come out at all. I highly recommend Nico 07818 607583 and will definitely call upon him again.

How do you react quickly controlling a leak if a copper fitting has not completely soldered or a water pipe is damaged, If you don?t know where the stop cock is, or the stop cock does not work, the time it takes to attach a hose pipe & drain pipe work down takes too long, and the damage is already done.

    • I think it's a good idea and follows the example of other towns/areas. As it says in the article, the area around the main tourist attractions in Southwark, that is The Globe, Southwark Cathedral, Tate Modern and the whole walking route from London Bridge to Blackfriars, takes a lot of maintaining and it shouldn't be a burden on regular council tax payers like us.
