    Water leak.

    Two visits made, one to assess and do temporary repair, second to permanently fix. James kept in touch as to the time he would be arriving. Have used James before and will do in the future.

    Washing machine leak

    A washing machine was leaking from the mains pipe, James took my call when another firm had let me down and talked through the problem, steps needed and reassured me. James arrived the next day to fix / cap off the pipe and ensured no further problems once water was turned off. Highly recommended.

    Radiator Installation

    Posted 06 October 2023

    Removal of 4 radiators replaced with 4 new ones

    This was initially a straightforward job, however I have what's called a primatic tank system which is old and problematic and involves an unusual drainage protocol. James thoroughly researched what was necessary to be able to carry out the work (he hadn't worked with primatic tank system before) and the outcome was a quality piece of installation and all my rads are now balanced and functioning perfectly. He is thorough, never rushes anything, and is committed to giving quality results. I would recommend him to anybody. John Whitfield

    Moving and adding a new radiator

    I’m renovating my flat and had called James for some help with moving and adding a new radiator in the bedroom. I received the best guidance on the radiators, size and placement to heat the rooms up best before installation (whilst also helping me choose the best cost effective option!). I’m really happy with my new radiator and the whole process of fitting it- James was super friendly and polite, and showed me how everything worked after. I’m so pleased with his work, I’m looking forward to contacting him again in the future to use more of his services ??

Hello and welcome to my Checkatrade page.

A little about me:

I'm James and I have been a plumber for 22 years. I did my apprenticeship with a family run company of plumbers and builders in North London many years ago and attended the College of North West London where I achieved an award of excellence and my city and guilds qualification.

During this time I learnt many skills and different trades which helped me to gain an extremely high level of knowledge and skill throughout the building industry.

Although I am mainly a qualified plumber I also offer such services as bathroom and kitchen fitting, and all the trades and skills associated with these projects.

There is no job too big or small in my eyes, and I am committed to providing an excellent service at a competitive rate.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I would be happy to hear from you should you need me.

Kind regards

James Wise
