James came out promptly addressed the leak and upgraded the plumbing to be water board compliant - all on a Saturday night when everyone else ignored our calls for help (I was standing on the pipe to stop it popping off again). Brilliant service

Woke up to a hot water flood when our 12 year old system gave up the ghost. Plumber was here in less than an hour and had the whole system replaced before 11:00 am. Really pleased, really impressed by the professionalism and speed.
