Highlights
“These guys are great, always respond promptly and manage to fit the job in quickly. We had a hot water cylinder leak which had been concealed behind a wall from the previous owners. Once the wall was removed there was quite a mess but Plumbwise had a new cylinder in for us the next morning. We will always contact them first, highly recommended”
“Great service, quick and efficient, plus a good explanation of repair needed.”

Kevin responded promptly; came on the agreed time, and fixed our leaky shower quickly and efficiently, We could see he was a skilled tradesman and his charge was reasonable by today's standards. We're recommending him to our friends.
100% great service at a fair price. Contacted Chris at 4pm about a mains leak under our house and it was fixed by 10am the next morning. Will not hesitate to call them again if we need a plumber.
Kevin was professional, helpful, very reasonably priced, carried out the work to an incredibly high standard and most of all, was very easy to work with. Cannot reccomend him or Plumbwise highly enough!
Kevin turned up when he said he would, and was knowledgable and efficient with the replacement of a couple of our old taps. Great job!
These guys are amazing. Reliable, hardworking and problem solvers. We are so happy we discovered them. Thanks again! Kathy

Contacted Chris to fix a leaking water tap and another small job. Chris came the next day and have both fixed in an hour. He definitely knows what he's doing, did a really nice tidy job and well prepared as he got all the parts with him already. I highly recommend Chris to everyone!
Rang for help in the middle of lockdown. No problems! In touch with us straight away. Knew what the problem was. Identified and got the part. All done. Easy and no stress. Thanks so much
Always a pleasure to deal with, no mess , no stress to worry about. Recommended
Plumbwise did a fantastic job replacing two toilets for me less than two weeks before Christmas. Kevin got back to me quickly after I rang him. I was on crutches and could only shop for toilets online so he sourced and sent pics of ones he thought would be right (really nice and much cheaper than the ones I had suggested to him.) The guys turned up right on time and did a great job installing them and left the place spotless. Will definitely be using Plumbwise again.
I chose plumbwise to investigate a really bad smell coming from my downstairs bathroom, after reading the reviews on this site. They were prompt in making contact and visiting to take a look. They provided lots of information and had the problem rectified quickly. Most happy to recommend to locals with plumbing issues
This is the second time I’ve used Plumbwise and both experiences were great. This time I had a leaking pipe under the house and it was fixed very promptly by Plumbwise. Would not hesitate in using them again and recommend them to anyone.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys - really efficient turned up when expected did an awesome clean-up job as well and everything is installed and working perfectly
Plumbwise did such a great job of our plumbing and were easy and stressfree to deal with. Great advice, very tidy work, we will use them next time we need a plumber, highly reccomend!
I had 3 toilets which needed attention. I was able to book Plumbwise without waiting long. Kevin was very professional & pleasant to deal with & fixed them all. I will certainly use Plumbwise again & highly recommend them.
Outstanding service from start to finish

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
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.
