About
We are passionate about providing good customer service and exceptional workmanship. We understand the importance of customer feedback and will do everything possible to ensure that a high standard is achieved on every job.
We have been trading now for just over 8 years and are continuing to grow. Based in Chiswick, West London, we are the third generation of plumbers. We work alongside our father who has been offering plumbing & heating services to the residents of West London for well over 40 years.
We specialize in Emergencies and love to do the jobs that other plumbers won't touch. We carry high pressure jetting equipment on board for all drainage issues. In general we do not book work in and are available to go as and when the phone rings, this allows us to offer a fast response time, minimising damage caused by water leaks.

We've used Richard as our plumber for many years. He's come out for emergencies and also he's fixed annoying issues which other plumbers haven't liked the look of! He will always explain what he's doing and I think his prices are reasonable and transparent. I thoroughly recommend him - he is "old school" in that he will always try and fix something if he possibly can whereas increasingly other plumbers will tell you to replace rather than repair. A very nice bloke too!

Emergency call out required due to water leak in apartment below. W4Plumber attended without delay, collected keys from agent for access, carried out repair and returned keys. We received a follow up call to advise the problem was rectified, and were able to advise all parties concerned of the situation. As we are not local to the property, so great service and excellent communication is paramount. Thank you Richard Marks.

Richard answered the phone himself (rare nowadays), listened to the problem and during that first call agreed a time later the same day when he would be able to call in. Arrived dead on time put on shoe covers without even being asked and sorted out the problem including replacement part with a minimum of fuss, there and then. Richard was polite, friendly and efficient. This was the first time I have used his services and it certainly won't be the last. So much better than the well known bigger companies and much better value too.

Excellent local plumber
Richard at W4. Plumber.com provides excellent service. We had two dodgy toilet flushes, one which had ceased to flush completely. He responded promptly, was efficient in his work and provided an explanation of the problem giving us advice on how to avoid a recurrence of the issue. We found Richard to be friendly, honest and competent and we would highly recommend him for those plumbing problems that need a quick resolution.

I contacted Richard because of Which? Trusted Trader. He replied to my initial query the same day and we agreed a date for the work. He was on time and quickly and efficiently carried out the work ie replacing a kitchen mixer tap and sorting two dripping taps in the bathroom. The kitchen work was quite tricky because of the location of the pipes behind built-in cupboards. But Richard was well up to the task. I was impressed by his demeanour and helpfulness and asked him to come back to do more work ie replacing two sink basin taps and shoring up a bath more securely than it had been done when first installed. How I wish I had known about Richard sooner!

First time I've used W4Plumber. Richard responded quickly and kept me informed while waiting for the parts for my kitchen tap to arrive. He arrived on time to do the repair. Unfortunately one of the parts didn't fit (not his fault) and he went the extra mile to find another seal from his van that fitted my tap. The repair took a lot longer than expected but he stayed to finish the job and I'm very happy with the service provided. He also gave me good advice about options for future repair or replacement.

Richard arrived on time, precisely on the dot, and got straight to work. Having done the necessary preparation beforehand, he was fully equipped to deal with the leaky sink quickly and did so with efficient and good humour. He wasted no time, was courteous and good-natured, resolved my issue and all for a reasonable price. Doing this job in the middle of lockdown, he also complied with social distancing and mask-wearing rules to make the whole exchange comfortable and stress-free. Short of a magic wand, I can't see how a plumbing service could be any better.

Richard disconnected and moved our old dishwasher, which is due to be replaced. He then fixed a leak from a pipe behind the old dishwasher. We have used Richard several times for plumbing jobs.

My kitchen tap had reached EOL over the weekend. I had a replacement tap already but could not work out how to fit so looked for a plumber nearby. Richard provided an estimate which turned out to be accurate, and offered to do the work the next day. He came on time, with all the necessary tools and PPE, got to work with minimal chitchat, and completed the task well within the hour. He cleaned out the debris that came out with the old tap and checked for any leakage before asking me to settle the bill. I have heard stories of rogue traders, but I was glad I chose Richard to do the job.

We had a tap that wouldn’t turn off, it looked, to me, like a simple tap change job - until Richard pointed out lack of access to the area and a we couldn’t find a stop cock. Fortunately Richard worked out a way around the access and located the stop cock. His local knowledge paid of in our case. Really appreciated his can do approach and his honesty. Would definitely recommend this company.
