“Elderly mother rang for plumber to look at hot water tap on sink which was loose. Attended same day within two hour slot specified admittedly she had misheard on phone and thought call out was £8/9 hour(must have been £89 an hour)! Plumber worked on tap for all of two minutes!(just a grub screw issue). Even with 5% OAP discount price was £101 with vat. Obviously my mam was naïve but be aware of excessive hourly rates charged by this company. Are all customers charged this rate or just those who are more naïve/vulnerable?”

He even asked if it was ok to work a little after 5 to enable him to finish the job. The receptionists were also very helpful and friendly.”
