Fantastic Local Plumbers


E.Pearce

Recommended Posts

We woke up Saturday morning to a pool of water in our bathroom, after a disastrous attempt at trying to fix it ourselves (we made it worse and came close to divorce), we decided to google local plumbers. Rye Plumbing & Heating came up, i called and Rick came within 15 minutes. Great guy, helped fix and replace the pipes we needed and didn't charge us crazy money... so refreshing. We would 100% use Rick again and i can't recommend him enough. His number is 07721060037.

I run A Small Studio, (an architecture, design & landscape practice in West Dulwich) and I meet tradesmen on a daily basis on different construction sites.


I recently had the pleasure of working with Rick's company (07721060037) for an emergency plumbing job. They were able to make the site visit within the same day, handled the job with care and precision and charged a very reasonable rate. I could tell they were experienced ands serious with their job and took care of their clients. I would wholeheartedly recommend calling them for nay Plumbing needs.

I would definitely recommend Rick. I phoned Rick regarding a leaking toilet (it is a customised unit with a sink attached that an other plumber called would not touch!) He came the next morning and fixed it promptly. Whilst there also fitted a new kitchen tap and linked up an outside garden tap as well. Very friendly, fast and efficient. Reasonably priced. I will using his services again regarding s bathroom refurbishment. Claire

I would also recommend Rick and his team. I called him this morning (07721060037) with 2 seperate issues - a leaking kitchen sink and a blocked saniflow and his colleagues were round a couple of hours later. Very friendly, helpful and efficient and got things fixed in no time. Thankfully they could clear the blockage saving me several hundred pounds and lots of hassle for a new saniflow system. Will definitely use again if we have further plumbing troubles!

Rang around for a plumber. Thank god Rick answered.


He came an hour later - checked out the leak advised of parts - went and got them


Spent over two hours completely taking the toilet apart!!!


And put it all back together - cleaned and hoovered. And his rates were very reasonable especially as it was a Saturday , last minute and he responded straight away. Puts my faith back in this forum.


Call him. 07721 060037

And another recommendation for Rick. He came in less than an hour, assessed the problem (with a toilet), got the necessary parts and fixed it. He charged what he quoted and that was reasonable.

Add to that, he was pleasant. I will recommend him and would use him again...though of course I hope I wont need to!

Hi, another endorsement for Rick and his brother.


Rick was originally booked for a small job in the new house we moved to on Saturday, however throughout the day inherited problem plumbing started to show itself. Nothing was an issue for Rick and he sorted everything quickly and competitively!


Would definitely recommend Rick to all on the EDF looking for a plumber.

I texted Rick just over 2 hours ago about a very slow draining sink which I was hoping to get fixed sometime during the week - wasn't bad enough to need an emergency call out.


Much to my surprise he called me straight back and said he could be with me in a couple of hours, and no extra fee for weekend call-out as he was working already. All fixed very quickly and efficiently, plenty of useful tips shared so that when I decide to replace the bathroom in full I don't make some of the mistakes that were made in the current installation.


When I eventually replace in full I will definitely give him a call for a quote.

Another positive endorsement from me! I rang Rick yesterday around 9am and he was with me by 10am. We had a leaking stopcock and also a small fracture in one of the pipes. Rick did a fantastic job and kept me informed throughout of what needed to be done. He also carried out the work in our very cramped downstairs loo so access was quite tricky. As an added bonus he sealed the loo to the floor which obviously hadn't been dealt with properly by the previous owners.


I will definitely use Rick again next time we need a plumber. Very nice guy, good work and tidied up afterwards.

I had a very bad experience with him..came to my flat in kennington ..tried to repair my pump ..replaced a kitchen tap..charged me ?290 ..wouldnt leave till the money was in his account ..the pump broked the next day again and he wouldnt come round and repair it..said it was the previous p;umbers problem..no hot water over the weekedn and way too expensive and didnt even come back to help


Really bad

We had Rick round last week to look at a leaking toilet, he managed to fix the problem despite it being a hidden cistern with no proper access panel left by the plumber who installed it, his solution to replace the loo without having to smash up the bathroom tiles & get the old cistern out has saved us money & hassle in the long term in my opinion. I am happy to recommend him based on our experience & he is due back tomorrow to finish off some other bits & pieces. I am happy to recommend him & will post again after he has been back if I am happy with the next bit of the job - which I am sure based on what he did last week we will be. I would say reliable and friendly & efficient service.
More praise and thanks. I called Rick for an evening emergency - water dripping from the ceiling. Not only did he answer the phone, he promptly visited and fixed the leak. I appreciated his honest and energetic approach - I'd have been none-the-wiser if he'd said I needed a huge expensive fix. Since, Rick has completed a couple of things to a high standard, minimal fuss, promptly and quickly. Plus he's a nice guy.

    • 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.
