Found on Which? Trusted Traders. High pressure mains water leak (spraying) inside cupboard area in garage which also contains electrical consumer units, meters and various switches. Floor, door frame, breeze block wall soaked. Angelo and Chris between them took my call and various details. Couple of hours later, Chris had arrived, reassured me, fixed the issue and left the site. Cupboard now dry and safe. A most professional business. Strongly recommend. Thank you Chris, Angelo and Which? (member since 1972)

Amazing company! Original chat with Angelo who was a great help, answered all my questions Chris then did a free visit to check everything to ensure we were quoted for the right work. Was quoted for the works and explained what needed doing. Cost of the works was great compared to other companies! Was expecting a much more expensive job but it was within budget. Installation itself was seamless, Chris did an amazing job and explained everything as he went along. Also advised about any other possible issues in the house that may need fixing, which is a bonus! Would highly recommend Chris and Angelo for all your plumbing needs, great company and great guys! A++++

When I rang Shaws the phone was answered within seconds and I explained that I had a problem with an ancient bath tap that has given much trouble in the past. Within an hour I was contacted by text and a mutually convenient appointment was booked. In the event Chris turned up 30 minutes early and soon diagnosed and sorted out the problem. I will definitely be using them again.

Toilet leak fixed in a Jiffy
Customer Service
Quality

Mysterious leak appeared around the base of toilet, with sub-zero temperatures I could not get a plumber, I had waited 3 weeks for my local one - I found Shaw's recommended. They responded quickly, did a mini diagnosis and then sent an engineer who arrived on time, fully briefed, quickly found the issue and fixed it in no time. As the toilet was concealed and difficult to get to they allowed extra time - the engineer did not need it and they did not charge for it. Polite, efficient, easy payment, and left the place tidy and everything in its place. Although access was separate, he maintained gloves and mask throughout. Little bit on pricy side if the job is very quick as 1 hour min charge, but may have taken another plumber longer so difficult for us armatures to judge.

Booked for a gas boiler service. The engineer arrived in a mask and put foot covers on immediately arrived. He had a protective mat to put under the boiler and his tools - so no scratched surfaces. The boiler was apart very quickly. Cleaned, checked and heating tested without fuss. Gave me advice about replacement boilers (brands and types) when asked. Would definitely use them again.

The plumber attended to a sink blockage. He arrived promptly, took appropriate precautions (eg wearing a mask), worked efficiently, and had the necessary skills and tools.

I had a leak on a outside tap in my yard. Its been "fixed" by various plumber of the years but due to a difficult connection between the plastic feed pipe and the copper pipe leading to the tap a leak generally occurs every year. Chris the plumber fixed the leak and also explained clearly the steps he had done to prevent the same issue again.

This was my first experience of asking a plumber to fix an issue in my house. I had a prompt response and call from Chris with early booking to view my broken TRV valve. He ordered a new valve and fixed it 2 days later. He waited to check all radiators were heating up nicely. He only charged me for 1 hour labour even though he stayed 45 minutes more.

Again, I can thoroughly recommend him.

Returned from holiday last Friday evening, turned on water at mains (we always turn it off when away on holiday) soon to find water running from loft through first floor bathroom and ceiling of downstairs shower room. Turned water off, phoned Shaws who arrived faster than their estimate and altered loft plumbing to avoid leak. Thus we gratefully avoided a water-less weekend. Very impressed. Shaws deserve their Which? Trusted Traded status.

Upright towel radiator in the bathroom had a leaking valve that a previous plumber had failed to fix on two occasions previously (and during those visits water leaked into the kitchen below). Initial phone call to Shaw's to discuss the problem was beneficial as he advised that if replacement valves could be bought prior to him coming he would only have to visit once and charge accordingly. On arrival Shaw's explained clearly that the radiator would need to be taken off the wall to replace the valves and that the central heating system would have to be drained to enable this to be done. The work was completed efficiently, cleanly and at a fair price. All radiators were checked and bled where necessary before leaving. Very satisfied with the work done.

We had a leaking pipe- it wasn't gushing out but we needed it fixing promptly. I called Chris Shaw during the morning. He was working on another job but agreed to get to us as soon as possible. Reassuringly, Chris called us twice during the morning to update us on his progress and his ETA. He arrived later that morning and fixed the problem cheerfully and efficiently. He is one of those tradesmen that you feel happy to have in your home. Despite our interrupting his schedule for the day at minimal notice he only charged us for one hour at his standard hourly call out fee and a small amount for parts. Highly recommended.
