Did you know that it is a legal requirement for plumbers and gas engineers to have a G3 qualification, also known as an Unvented Hot Water qualification if they want to install unvented hot water cylinders? Having trained and achieved the G3 qualification  engineers will be covered in the following areas in accordance with the relevant regulations:

  • Vented and unvented systems and their operating principles
  • Design and installation
  • Maintenance and compliance with Building Regulations

The course is then required to be completed every five years. This ensures the engineer’s competence in providing a safe and professional service for their customers. It also means Christy Plumbing & Heating can register your appliance with your local authority and the Gas Safe register to ensure you receive the relevant certification required, should you ever sell your home.

Hear what others have to say

Will definitely use them again.

Had a leak and they came out straight away and fixed the issue. So thankful. Will definitely use them again.

Emma P

Great quick response!

Great quick response from Christy Plumbing to fix my leaking tap. Thanks, Ryan and team, your number is in my important contacts now.

Joanne S

Great service

Great service – re tiled our bathroom and installed a new sink vanity unit – brilliant and worked so hard – finishing the work on a Sunday afternoon – very pleased

Janice R

Fantastic experience

Fantastic experience, burst water pipe. The plumber was fast to respond, and the problem was fixed within minutes. would definitely recommend them.

 

Alison M

Please, never retire!

Lawrence and his team came to the rescue of our blocked drain and us ! As ever, highly professional, reassuring and do the job! Please, never retire, it is so good to have the company here in Clapham.

Susan L

Burst outside pipe

New pipe section fitted. Although the boys had problems getting the joints to fit. Some problems with different-sized pipes. Anyway, the job is done and seems ok, thank you.

Gordon L

Drain blockage problem.

I have recently used Christie to fix a drain blockage problem. Initially thought to be a small problem, but turned out to be a much bigger problem that involved lifting 3 drain covers. I was impressed by the “determined to fix approach adopted by Mason, who works for Christie. The problem was fixed to my complete satisfaction and relief!

Steve C

Polite lads

Polite lads did the job quickly and professionally. Explained clearly what would be done to fix the pipes in the loft and even took pictures so I could see ( didn’t fancy much climbing into the loft myself!) Thank you very much! Helen

Helen A

Quick and efficient

Quick and efficient response to a home water leak emergency. Christy Plumbing is highly recommended.

Christopher H

Excellent, professional service

Excellent, professional service. Rapid initial response to the leak, then completed the follow-up work when they said they would and to a high standard. Very competent, helpful, friendly staff.

Keith F

Superb

Lawrence came round at very short notice and was superb. Our drains had blocked, and despite my best efforts, I couldn’t sort out the problem. Lawrence spent the time to trace the drain, unblock it and leave everything as it should be. He helped me clear up and was professional, friendly and very thorough. I can’t recommend his services highly enough. Thanks for all your help.

Mark M

A pleasure to deal with.

Came out within two hours after our shower pump sprang a leak. They provided us with a spare pump, which is sufficient to tie us over as we’ve decided to upgrade our system to high pressure in the next few weeks, which will eliminate the need for a pump. We will be using Christie’s for this job, also. A pleasure to deal with.

 

Jayne L

Highly recommend!

I called this morning as we had a leak coming through the kitchen ceiling from our en-suite shower, and a plumber arrived within the hour of contacting and sorted the issue + showed me what caused the issue and how to avoid it in the future. Very friendly- massive thank you

Alex K

A good job well done.

Christy Plumbing supplied and installed a mixer tap to replace one (brought from a well-known online supply firm, which repeatedly failed due to poor quality). This was in the kitchen. The tap supplied has a much better and more solid feeling to the unit. The installation was handled well by the plumber. Let’s just say that the old one was a bit stubborn and did not want to let go! However, he resolved the problem and the new unit was fitted quickly and simply. All in all, a good job well done.

Ian H

Yet another excellent job

Excellent! Having wanted our old kitchen tap replaced for more years than I can say, Mason completed the task quickly, efficiently, confidently and very well mannered. I cannot praise enough, absolutely delighted. We are aiming to have others replaced now. Thank you. Yet another excellent job recently by Mason. Very impressed indeed.

Lady E

Extremely helpful

Lawrence visited recently to look at a faulty shower unit. He confirmed a new unit was needed. He also inspected the hot water tank in my loft and identified that some remedial work was required. Lawrence was extremely helpful and explained the process to me, which put my mind at rest. After accepting the estimate, a plumber arrived to undertake the work. He was polite and helpful and completed the job quickly and efficiently. He tidied everything up so that you wouldn’t have known he had been here. I am very impressed with the company. Everyone in the office is thoughtful and kind. I would highly recommend Christy Plumbing & Heating.

Dawn H

 Delighted

 Delighted with my new kitchen tap. Work was carried out quickly and professionally.

Nola K

Absolutely first-rate

Absolutely first-rate service. I came home from a business trip to find my hot water cylinder leaking, and Christy’s were happy to drop in the same day to perform an initial diagnosis and remediation to prevent further leakage. We were then able to schedule the actual repair, which happened very promptly. I was kept up-to-date at all times about the schedule, and the cause and the fix were explained. I’d absolutely recommend them again and will definitely be turning to Christy Plumbing & Heating for any further work I need done.

Matt U

Extremely professional

Recently had several basin and bath taps replaced by Christy Plumbing & Heating. The whole process from quotation through to installation was very easy and extremely professional. On the day of the installation, the plumbers arrived as arranged and replaced all taps without any problems at all, giving advance warning when the mains water had to be turned off. They checked with me that everything was OK before they left and took all the rubbish and old taps with them. Very pleased with the work carried out and would recommend

Kenneth H

Timely response, professional service

Timely response, professional service and competitively priced. I’d certainly use this firm again for any future plumbing issues.

Jennie A

Fabulous Company.

Responded and kept in touch with the appointment. The work to replace a tap and a different plug system was carried out speedily, efficiently and left the bathroom in an immaculate condition! I can thoroughly recommend this Company.

Viv S

I would definitely recommend.

We were visiting an elderly relative when we discovered a leak in the kitchen. Lawrence arrived within 3 hours, identified the issue, and it was resolved quickly and efficiently. I received my invoice today and was pleasantly surprised at the reasonable amount charged for calling out a plumber on a Saturday evening. I would definitely recommend.

Lorraine W

Prompt, pleasant, polite and efficient

The engineer identified the problem instantly. (It was quite obvious!). However, it needed a trip to get the necessary parts. In all, he was prompt, pleasant, polite and efficient, and we now have a perfectly working toilet! Thanks again, Christy’s.

Geoff R

I highly recommend Christy’s Plumbing & Heating.

I highly recommend Christy’s Plumbing & Heating. They are professional experience is endless. I have known Lawrence for 20 years + and wouldn’t use anyone else. They installed a pressurised cylinder in my new home and did an amazing job. We were here all day, and Lawrence came back the following day to connect it to my electrics. I now have better water pressure and more hot water. Also, a very quiet shower. Everything I was promised happened. Mason and Harry were both so lovely, kind and friendly and were very professional. Thank you so much ❤️

Lisa T

Excellent service

Excellent service from the whole team. Corner entry shower cubicle and bar mixer shower fitted. The guys who did the fitting were very polite and courteous and left everything tidy and clean. Very pleased with the result. Thoroughly recommend.

Linda E

Fantastic Service!!!

Fantastic service. Called out of hours with a leaky outside tap, which was fixed within the hour! Very reasonable price and service with a smile. Would 100% recommend!

Olivia P

Huge thank you to the team at Christy.

Huge thank you to the team at Christy. Gary, who did the prep, Craig, who installed our shower panels and Ryan, who dealt with the plumbing and fitted the shower door. Lovely lads. Great job done efficiently and cleanly. I didn’t have to do any cleaning up. I have no hesitation in recommending Christy (they service our boiler too). So pleased with the work done.

Maureen R

Lawrence was epic

Can’t recommend enough, fabulous service right from the first phone call to book my work, really personal service and a fabulous job in my bathroom! Lawrence was epic and carried out the work professionally, with a touch of humour and fabulous communication all the way through. So pleased! Will definitely use again should the need arise. Thank you 🙂
