Do you really charge nothing for the call-out?

Yes — no call-out charge, full stop. You only pay for the work that's done, at a clear price agreed before we start. No hidden extras, no padded bills.

How fast can you get to me in an emergency?

For urgent jobs across Edinburgh — burst pipes, major leaks, no water — we aim to be on-site within the hour. We're based in Drylaw and cover the whole city plus the Lothians.

Are you available at weekends and bank holidays?

24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year — including Christmas, New Year and every bank holiday. When you call, you reach the plumber, not a call centre.

Will I deal with you directly, or a call centre?

You deal directly with the skilled tradesman doing the job. That means quicker diagnosis on the phone, accurate quotes, and one person accountable from start to finish.

Do you cover commercial properties?

Yes — office blocks, hotels, shopping centres, retail units, cafés and restaurants. We can also carry out plumbing risk assessments and ongoing maintenance.

Is your work guaranteed?

Every job we do is guaranteed. We're fully qualified, fully insured (public liability), and hold all the relevant regulatory safety certificates. Quality reputable brand materials only — never cheap substitutes.

What about boiler installations and heating?

We install and repair boilers, central heating systems, radiators, unvented hot water cylinders, and provide power flushing. For gas work specifically, our qualifications are in order and certificates are issued on completion.
