What we do
Every job a home actually needs
One team, one van bay in Leyton, no subcontracting. If it carries water or heats your home, we look after it.
Emergency call-outs
Burst pipe, water through the ceiling, no heating in January. Call any hour — a person answers, and an engineer is on the road in minutes, not the morning.
FIRST HOUR £120 · 24/7 What’s includedBoilers & heating
Servicing, repairs and full installations for combi and system boilers. We’ll tell you honestly when a £150 repair beats a £2,400 new unit — and when it doesn’t.
ANNUAL SERVICE £89 Install, service & repairBathrooms
From a dripping tap to a full refit. Dust sheets down, waste taken away, silicone lines you’d photograph. Fixed quote before a single tile moves.
FIXED QUOTES How a refit runsLeaks & bursts
We find the leak before we open anything up — moisture meter first, floorboards second. Then we fix the cause, not just the damp patch.
FROM £95 How we trace leaksLandlords & agents
Gas safety certificates (CP12), repairs arranged with tenants directly, paperwork emailed the same day, annual reminders so nothing lapses. About a third of our work.
CP12 £75 · SAME-DAY CERT Certificates & contractsDrains & blockages
Sinks, toilets and outside gullies cleared, usually within the hour. If it’s a recurring blockage we’ll tell you why it keeps happening — for free.

Word of mouth
What the street says
4.9 / 5 · 300+ reviews
The quote on the phone was £129. The invoice was £129. After a decade of London plumbers, that shouldn’t feel remarkable — but it is.
Water through the kitchen ceiling at 11pm. Called at 11:20, Dan was here by midnight — water off, leak found, ceiling saved. £120, exactly as quoted on the phone.
Reviews come from job follow-up texts — every customer gets one, and we publish the average unedited. Meet the team behind the numbers.
