Mike has helped me out a few times over the years. He has always been most reliable and done a neat and tidy job. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.
We have used Mike before and he is very good. He attends to the job quickly and efficiently and is a credit to the plumbing industry.
Mike fixed an underground leak from our mains water supply promptly and efficiently. His initial advice that he shouldn't come to inspect the property was very much appreciated; instead he referred us to a leak detection company who identified the cause of the leak. I would certainly recommend Mike for any plumbing work.
Mike changed a kitchen tap for me initially, I asked for some advice on the bathroom, he diagnosed the issues quickly and other factors that I wasn’t aware of, I am very grateful I was able to deal with these swiftly or my bathroom could have flooded. Mike was very punctual, and did a great job, he was fvery easy to communicate with, left no mess and did a professional job. I would recommend Mike to anyone who wants a good reliable, and efficient plumber who did everything with a smile and
I’d definitely recommend Plan It Plumbing. Brilliant service, efficient and prompt response and turnaround, and really clear communication. Will definitely be using them again!

Mike did an excellent job in sorting out my toilet cistern and another small job. He is thorough and efficient. Also very Poland helpful.
Mike was everything the previous reviews said he would be - and more. He quickly fixed a couple of leaks we had, and found another serious one we didn’t know about. His problem-solving approach to our water heating issues finally gives us some hope they might be able to be overcome. That’s way beyond what the other four plumbers we had look at the same system said. Highly recommended for things like this.
Highly recommended plumbing specialist. We had water on our laundry floor and did not know the cause. Mike was very prompt in answering our email request, knowledgeable, and an excellent communicator. He came and solved the problem quickly and satisfactorily. We will call Mike for all our plumbing issues.
Highly recommend Plan It Plumbing. Quick to fix and friendly to deal with.
We do enjoy working with Michael, he is always prompt and efficient. Thank you for replacing the last of the old pipes and fixing the drainage that was not correct. We will always recommend you.
Excellent work from highly competent and engaged plumber. Has worked with me over a few visits to complete a complete bathroom & laundry project. Highly recommended.
We have just renovated a bathroom and used Mike for the plumbing work. He has been the go-to plumber for us for a couple of projects now and he is always great to work with. On time, tidy and more than competent. When there is a scratching-head moment, he is always first to think outside the square for a solution. I would always recommend him for any plumbing work.
As always, very happy with Mike's work. Recommend him highly and will certainly use him again. He did the job a day after contacting him.
Quick response. Mike is a good straightforward tradesman - could have sold something that wasn't needed but "no, you don't need to spend money on that". Will happily use again.
Thank you Michael for responding to our call so quickly. You arrived when you said you would and as always your work was incredibly professional.

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
Agree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top, in writing, before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced. Get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade, not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
