David fitted a new shower room and replaced an existing bathroom at our house. The work he has done has been first class. He is extremely efficient, reliable and tidy, and we would recommend him to anyone who needs a plumber.

Report
David installed a new gas boiler, replaced radiators and installed a new gas feed back to a new meter cupboard / gas main. The work was of a high standard, David worked in a COVID-secure way and the installation scope meant that the oil boiler was decommissioned in the morning and the new gas boiler was up and running in the evening, leaving minimum disruption. I would not hesitate to recommend David Tonkin Plumbing.
