So a touch confused by the conflicting recommendations on here for Francis.


I first needed urgent help about a year ago when my u bend under the sink came away and I checked the ED Forum for reliable recommends and came across Francis's details. He came out within the hour on a Friday night for me and fixed the issue quickly and efficiently. Fast forward to last night and I came home to my water isolation taps under the sink frantically dripping. One call to Francis and, once again, he was with me within the hour to put a temp fix on the issue and returned this morning with the necessary parts to fix the issue.


I can only put my own seal of approval on Francis and will have no hesitation in calling him again as he has been, for me, fast, efficient and relatively reasonably priced.

This is about the fourth time that i've had Francis come around to help with plumbing issues....he came over quickly whn I called him and sorted me out with the minimum of expense and fuss...he's really the best plumber I've come across. I recommend him highly..If you would like to contact him..here's his number: 07552347157

just called Francis this morning about a blocked kitchen sink.

He came round within the hour explaind the problem and also explaind how to stop this from happening in the future and fixed the problem.

Will be using him again.

Thanks Ed forum and Francis.

Called Francis this morning as I tried to unblock my sink waste but couldn't put it back together.

He came out within the hour was vet polite and very well priced,

Fixed the sink waste and showed me how to do it in future.

Hi im new to the forum but was told by a friend to look for recommendations for a plumber on here.

I found Francis who I can say I'm very happy with.

I had a leak in my bathroom basin I called Francis and he got one of his team out to fix the problem.

Very happy customer.

And thanks john.

Found recommendations for Francis on the ED Forum shortly after moving to ED.


We are gradually going through a programme of renovating our flat. The first thing we needed to do was remove some old water piping which was sitting on the outside of the walls, running from the radiators, vertically up through the ceiling and into the system. This wasn't strictly a plumbing issue (leaks, etc), but was more to do with upgrading the 'look and feel' of the place.


Francis offered an extremely friendly and polite service. He came round within a day or two to scope the work, and then returned a day or two later (with a colleague) to complete the work. The plaster was drilled into and the previously externally visible pipes were recessed into a channel behind the surface of the wall. Once replastered, the pipes will no longer be visible. The job was well done and took a single day.


Furthermore, as a first-time buyer, I was a little concerned by stories of London Tradesman charging high prices. Francis certainly helped to allay these fears, as he did a fair job at a fair price. We will definitely be using Francis again as we continue to renovate our flat.


For those wanting to use Francis, his number is 07552 347 157.


Thanks again,


Nathan

Hi I'm new to the ed forum.

I'm finding IT very useful.

I found Francis on here and called him as I needed to get my washing machine installed.

He sent Castro round who was very professional and worked very quickly.

The job is done and I can wash my clothes.

Thanks Francis.

I very rarely post on this site but I do use it.. I found Francis the plumber on here. He came and done the job, and charged me reasonably. Very nice chap and done a great job. He asked if I found out about his services from the forum and if so to put up a recommendation. So here it is!

Great job Francis! I would recommend using his services.

    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
