Nightmare getting a plumber!
- Caroline (8th Nov 2021 - 11:16:40)
Has anyone else found it extremely tricky to get a plumber? I've been in contact with a couple recommended on this site and whilst both visited and provided quotes, I now can't get hold of them for love nor money! Is it simply the time of year? I'm getting really frustrated trying to get someone to do the work!

Fair enough if only short notice is given. We first got the quote and accepted it a couple of months back. Apparently a fairly quick job too. Just losing hope of ever getting anyone to actually undertake the work!

I called 3 good ones I had used many times before and none of them could get me a booking within 8 weeks they where that busy.
Supply and demand am afraid, too much work on since both pandemic and some (that I used as least whom were good) have left the country and gone home for good it seems

This is so true, we tried our usual plumber who is brilliant, but couldnt help us, as he was really busy, we ended up paying a fortune for something that didnt work properly. It really is a nightmare, especially when its something urgent

Hi Ian,
We wanted an outside tap installed. Currently the only outside tap we have is in the garage and it's not easy to water the back garden! So we've had quotes before but then don't seem to be able to reach the plumber to come back and do the work.
thanks,
Caroline
