About

Welcome to our 'WHICH Trusted Trader' profile.
I have been in the construction industry for 30 years starting out my trade as a time served plumbing and heating engineer. In that time I have expanded my knowledge of other trades and skills working alongside other prrofessionals in the industry to offer a comprehensive, quality service to our clients with a solid background of experience.
Our clients include local authorities such as Stockport and Bury Metropolitan Borough Councils, as well as arms length management organisations such as Stockport Homes and Six Town Housing for the procurement of disabled access facilities in the home and in public buildings.  
Whilst this work is important to our business, our core services still remain in the plumbing and heating sector, installing and maintaining heating systems, boiler breakdowns & replacements and we take great pride in our luxury bathroom installations.
All work is reported and certified to 'Building Control' where applicable.

Declan was really helpful when dealing with my requests. He gave advice on several different options, allowing me the time to consider what would work best for me. He explained what he was doing when he was investigating an issue with a pipe, and explained what the problem was. He even took the time to ring a supplier to discuss the best options and the best value for me. He quickly fixed an issue with a pipe and provided me with enough information and options to make a decision about another piece of work that I wanted. There was no pressure for me to agree to anything, he was happy for me to take the time to consider. Very friendly, very approachable!

Declan from ABS first explored the leak which was hidden from view using a camera to access, then he removed a small section of plasterboard and fixed the area in question quickly and tidily. He was clear abut pricing and what needed done from the outset and was very professional and neat as well as well equipped to carry out all parts of the job. ABS also carried out our boiler service. I would highly recommend as knowledgeable and trustworthy

Declan came to fix a leaking toilet at our property on a Bank Holiday Sunday. He arrived on time and immediately got to work to investigate the problem. One hour later, the leak was repaired. Declan was thoroughly professional and knowledgeable and a clean, tidy worker. I would not hesitate in using Declan again for any of our future plumbing needs and what a nice guy. Highly recommended.

Declan kept us up to date by phone before arrival and then quickly found a solution to a tricky problem plumbing our new dishwasher. He had all the necessary parts with him and completed the job without fuss. He was very courteous and was very fair with his charges. Having found Declan through this website he'd certainly be my first point of contact for any future plumbing needs and would recommend him without reservation to family and friends.

Declan arrived on time after courteously phoning in advance to confirm he was on his way. He replaced some cartridge valves on a leaking mixer tap with the minimum of fuss. His 30 years of experience was evident from the sound advice he willingly gave on other plumbing-related matters.
