    Responsive and efficient

    Jake at Essential Plumbing and Heating assisted us with the uninstallation of a washing machine at a probate property. Jake was responsive and able to accommodate our last minute request, and even attended the property and completed the job earlier than expected. We will certainly use Essential Plumbing and Heating again in the future. Thank you!

    Bathroom refurbishment

    Jake and his team were fantastic from start to finish, from our initial meeting/quotation visit to the handover of our brand new bathroom. The guys were clean and tidy, punctual and the standard of work was exemplary. Every step of the way we were kept informed with detailed updates of progress. We are over the moon with the finished result, and would highly recommend Essential plumbing and heating
