Fixed a leak in bathroom when they said they would. Had to move a lot and rip a lot out to get to where the leak had damaged but the bathroom looks exactly as it used to as a consequence and the leak is fixed. Pleasant to deal with and came round exactly when thy said they would.

Plumbox did a great job at resolving my shower pump issue. The my house had an incorrectly fitted shower pump which stopped working after I had moved in. Not knowing anything about plumbing or shower systems, it was great to have the issues explained clearly to me, for the work to be carried out quickly. The communication from Plumbox was great and they were always happy to answer my questions. Will definitely use them again.

Installed a new whole central heating system (gas pipes, combi boiler, radiator), gas cooker and outside water taps. Really happy with the service and information throughout the process from quote to completion. Michael is very responsive and get in touch with us the whole time.The fact I like most is that it's easier to get in touch with him (who is in charge) directly and customise your needs even in the middle of the installation, unlike big companies where you ask a question and it takes ages to get back and you only speak to the admin/receptionist and cannot speak directly to the person in charge. You can ask questions and opinions from him. They will explain to you which is most suitable for your needs. During the installation, we requested to upgrade one of the radiators, and install an outside tap at the front of the house, which was done quickly. We also requested to customise the combi boiler and flue location and the way it is attached to the wall and also to upgrade the wireless control to Google Nest, which Michael agreed to do it straightaway.Price wise, the quote is very reasonable compared to others and the radiators used are of good quality. You will know if you shop around and ask quote from others.The installation time is great although it took just one more day than expected. But this is due to the fact that they are installing a whole new system (not just replacing old rads or boiler). They explained that they want to get it right in the first place rather than rushing to finish it, and then homeowner faces with issues later down the line. I prefer this way and I can see his whole team is doing their best. When I am writing this review, it's almost 3 weeks since completion. And I don't see any issue like leaks or gas smell or such.They took extra care during the installation to control dirts and dusts like laying plastic sheets throughout, covering items as needed, vaccuming at the end of each day, etc. They cleared everything after completion including the old hot water tank, loft cold water tank and all old pipes.Thanks Michael and his team for their brilliant service. Can't recommend enough... :)

We used Plumbox to change our conventional boiler to a combination one and all new radiators.Michael was very helpful, from the survey to the installation they have been very professional, fast and clean.We would definitely recommend that and hopefully used them for future projects in the house.

I contacted Michael at Plumbox to undertake some work in my kitchen refurbishment, which included connecting a new sink and gas hob. Whilst here, they also took a look at a slow-draining sink. They completed the work to an excellent and very thoughtful/considerate standard, which can be rare. Some tradespeople want to get in and out as quick as possible. However, the Plumbox team wanted to make sure they did the job both correctly and neatly. Brandon carried out the bulk of the work, and he was polite, courteous and knowledgeable. I have no hesitations in recommending them, and they will be my first point of contact should I need any further plumbing or gas work done in the future.

Such a brilliant, trustworthy team. Friendly guys who explained everything without jargon so I knew what was going to be done. They fit us in when our boiler broke an hour into moving into our new house. They were efficient, neat and tidy. They did a brilliant job on the bits that others can be slapdash on (bricking up the wall and filling in holes) and worked really hard on it all. Such a positive experience and will 100% be using them again when needed.

Can't recommend Plumbox highly enough. Our boiler died just as the weather turned absolutely baltic, and we needed a new one installed ASAP. Plumbox were prompt to come and do a quote, thoroughly considering what needed to be done and what the best option for us would be (bearing in mind our slightly odd house!) - rather than just looking at a straight swap of like for like. That "thinking outside the box" has provided us with a much more convenient and aesthetically better long-term solution.They were able to start very soon, and turned up each day promptly and worked quickly and efficiently, with careful attention to detail. Throughout their work they were extremely neat and tidy and considerate of our needs, making sure we had water and gas each evening. In fact the house was actually cleaner after they'd left than before they'd started!! The pipe work is very neat, looks very professional, and is all tucked neatly out of the way so that it isn't visible - again this required a few innovative solutions that I don't think many people would have thought of. Any issues they had (again, rather odd house!) they talked us through the options for solving them to make sure that we were kept informed and could make decisions that were best for us.Overall, we were extremely impressed with Plumbox throughout the whole process and felt they delivered exceptional service. We won't hesitate to use them again for any future plumbing or heating issues, and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for plumbing or heating engineers.

I had an issue with my boiler (not an emergency, minor leakage). I have contacted Michael who was able to come the following week and fixed the problem during his visit. He has professional and efficient in addressing the issue. As landlord, I appreciated that he liaised with my tenant to let them know when he was planning to come. Michael maintained a clear communication with me, from beginning to end I am very satisfied with Michael, I highly recommend!

Plumbox have just done another brilliant job for us! They put in two new radiators, replaced the valves on two others, replaced the toilet pan and replaced the extractor fan in the shower. They do great work and are a delight to have in the house. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Plumbox was recommended to me by a neighbour, and recently did some work renovating our bathroom, replacing a shower tray and cubicle, shower, some taps, bath panels, and so on. Michael was a pleasure to deal with. They did a great job. Bathroom now looks great. Would definitely recommend.

We contacted Michael after our (hidden) toilet cistern failed late one evening (8/8/18). He very kindly talked us through locating the stopcock feeding the cistern that very evening, and gave us the details of an online plumbing supplier, and the parts that we needed to order, next day. He then fitted the parts once they'd arrived, plus a new toilet seat that we'd purchased. Michael was quick, responsive, helpful and reasonably priced. Would definitely use again!
