Graeme Skinner

Our old boiler was coming to the end of its life and needed replacing. Graeme came highly recommended from our street’s WhatsApp group. Being local, he attended within minutes of being contacted- all options were explained to us and a new replacement installed within 4 days. All work was done in an efficient and competent manner right down to him registering us for a 10 year guarantee.

There's a reason this fella has five stars. He has probably saved me the subscription to Which in just the couple of times I've needed him. No - make that definitely. The second call basically went along the lines of Me -" help", Graeme - "be there asap" Result = fixed. The reason there was a second call was due to the competence, common sense and attitude to problem-solving he showed on the first visit. Not to mention the reasonable rates . Only taken me 20 years to find a plumber I trust!

Graeme has been my plumber for many years (it must be about 10 or more by now). The latest job he did for me was to install a new boiler. After diagnosing the issue he gave me various options (e.g. fixes that might mean I could avoid the cost of a new boiler), pros and cons of each and approximate budget. Given the age of the boiler I decided to go ahead with getting it replaced. Graeme then promptly gave me a detailed quote and upon my greenlight quickly went about procuring the new boiler on my behalf. The job was complicated by the fact the existing boiler was housed in an old Ikea cupboard (which was in poor repair and not completely the right size for the new boiler) but rather than take the easy way out and have me buy a new cupboard, Graeme managed to make some adjustments and thus not only save me some cash but also avoid needless waste. He also organised the collection of the old boiler by a specialist disposal company rather than dump it in the refuse skips in the services area of the building. The job was done quickly and efficiently and the new boiler is great. I have to say that over the years Graeme has not only always proved to be extremely professional and knowledgeable, but has been reliable and straightforward to deal with. I trust him completely. He never leaves a job half done when he encounters issues and he never fails to fix whatever the problem is. I can't recommend him enough.

Graeme was recommended to me and I can happily say he will be my go-to plumber from now on. He is professional, friendly, honest and more than willing to do some relatively minor jobs in our bathroom. He answered all my questions and even went so far as to clean some limescale off my sink when he replaced the taps. That’s great service! I highly recommend Graeme.

Graeme came highly recommended by a neighbour. He replaced a broken shower pump for us at short notice. He gave very helpful advice prior to coming, was an excellent communicator, arrived promptly, explained everything clearly and carried out the work efficiently at a very reasonable price. I would not hesitate to contact him again - so great to discover a reliable local plumber after 12 years in the area!

Graeme has done a few and varied plumbing and boiler tasks for us over the last few years and he has always completed each job to a very high standard. The latest job was sorting out a couple of taps we had a problem with, one of the simpler jobs he has done for us but he arrived on the day I contacted him and charged a very reasonable rate. Graeme is a very professional and friendly guy and I would recommend him to anyone with a plumbing or boiler problem. Its good to have someone you can rely on in these uncertain times.

Graeme came to service my boiler and give advice re taps and gas cooker installation. The experience was great from start to finish and my boiler running very smoothly. Punctual, polite and professional.

Graeme has fixed a number of issues at my house in the last few years and is always on time and reliable. He has fixed the issues quickly each time and takes the time to explain what is wrong clearly and simply. He is a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to anyone in the south London area.

Graeme was an absolute saviour! First, he came in at short notice and replaced my boiler which had broken down and then he came to fix a rather awkwardly positioned water pipe that was leaking. Having had a couple of bad experiences with plumbers in the past I'm thrilled to have come across someone I can finally rely on in Graeme. He's trustworthy, knowledgable, sensible, and seems to have his customers interests at heart. I'll definitely be using him again and will be recommending him to friends and family.

This is the first time Graeme has worked for me, replacing faulty kitchen taps. He arrived promptly, was pleasant, helpful and very professional, leaving me satisfied with the job well done. I won't hesitate to call him should I need his services again. B.I.F.
