Georgeplumbing Reviews 

I'd noticed the water pressure in the house was getting worse, so I gave them a call. They found the problem straight away and had it fixed much faster than I expected. Really impressed with how easy they made everything.

Excellent service all around. Communication was great, they arrived on time, and the plumber was really nice to deal with. The repair was done properly and the area was left spotless. I'd happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable plumber.

GEORGE THE PLUMBER IS A SCAM
They are not local- their google reviews are fake. My actual local plumber was busy so he couldn’t fix. George the plumber turned up- actually a massive guy called Pavlov who didn’t even knock I’m not even joking. He just walked in and started taking his shoes off!! When we established who he was he looked at my bath and then went to call his boss. He then put his boss on the phone who said ‘£380’. I was like is that a joke it’s just a flannel stuck in the bath drain pipe. He was very aggressive and asked how much I thought it should be and I said reasonably £50 (£100 would be extortionate) and he laughed at me and said no chance- very professional lol! My plumber has since been out and yes it cost £50 as it was just a flannel in the bath drain pipe. Maybe they just go around collecting £48 call out fees?

We had a new water heater installed and the whole process was really smooth. The plumber answered all our questions, got everything fitted properly, and cleaned up before leaving. Very happy with the result.

Reasonable call out fee but won’t declare a labour cost per hour. When the plumber arrived the repair costs for a simple job were eye watering. Do not use unless you have to!

Complete scam. Charged £500 for adding an extra join to my cold water for a dishwasher and cutting a hole in a cupboard. I asked for an invoice but they wouldn't leave until I'd paid and then only sent the invoice justifying the price afterwards (which is written down as something it isn't). Avoid avoid avoid

Avoid "George the Plumber" at all costs. If you are reading this thinking about booking them, stop right now and look at the rest of their Trustpilot reviews. They have a pattern of doing this to people, and I wish I had checked here first.

I called them out to clear a blocked kitchen pipe, and it was a masterclass in terrible service. The plumber arrived completely late, spent an hour messing around achieving absolutely nothing, and left with my kitchen pipe still completely blocked. Despite fixing zero problems, I was hit with a massive bill: a £48 call-out fee plus an outrageous £180 for "labour" + VAT. To make it even shadier, he pressured and forced me to pay the total £228 balance strictly in cash.

Before management replies with their usual line:
I know you love to respond to negative reviews claiming, "We have no record of this person being a customer." Let's clear that up right now. You use a massive web of subcontractors so you can legally distance yourselves from your own terrible service. I called the official phone number directly from the George the Plumber website. You sent the plumber, you took the £228 cash, and you own this disaster.

2 young men came and changed a ballcock in my tank in the loft.I had no water at all as it was switched off owing to it overflowing so felt obliged to pay the asking price of £450 for an hrs work done by one of them while the other one sat on the stairs. I do not recommend these people as their prices are extortionate

Should have cowboy as company logo. Beware George the plum will damage your property overcharge laugh about it and when you complain I think they pass the phone around with each other claiming to be managers. They could not manage to turn off a tap

Outstanding customer service from start to finish. The office staff kept me updated about my appointment, and the plumber arrived right on schedule. They repaired a leaking shower, checked for any additional issues, and made sure everything was working properly before leaving. Professional, reliable, and reasonably priced.!

Found a local plumber on line James plumbing, to change a ball val in cold storage tank in attic, no web site or address, rang the number which was answered and told to press 4 to get through. Plumber turned up, inspected, said tank had a crack as well as needing new ball valve and then tapped info and photos to send to his “office” for quote. Received WhatsApp quote from unnamed company for £2700!!! Advised him this was a rip off and I’d find another plumber. He then said he’d help by just fitting a new ball valve and lower the water level below crack. When it came to pay, after 11/2hours, he had to contact his “office” again. I then received a payment request; Dear Client, you received a payment request from
GEORGE PLUMBING AND MAINTENANCE LIMITED
£604.80.
These companies are a scam and total rip off, James Plumbing doesn’t probably exist, George Plumbing aren’t plumbers they’re an employment agency I suspect employing self employed plumbers all over the country. I assume they pay the plumber £80/hour and charge customers £200/hour. So be warned DO NOT USE ANY PLUMBER ON GOOGLE WHO doesn’t have a a web site and contact address
and direct telephone number. There are lots of James and George plumbers listed on Google for every part of the country, so it’s obviously a huge bogus sham set up. Checking George Plumbing and Maintence Ltd it’s only been
active since incorporation 19 June 2026 and owned by Mukhammadjon Sabridinov from Uzbekistan

I was really impressed by how honest and transparent this company was. They explained the problem with our boiler's plumbing connections in simple terms, gave a clear quote before starting work, and completed the repair efficiently. Everything has been working perfectly ever since. Great workmanship and friendly service.

Excellent experience all around. We needed several small plumbing jobs completed around the house, including fixing dripping taps and replacing some worn pipe fittings. The plumber completed every task to a very high standard, worked efficiently, and treated our home with respect. It's clear they care about providing quality service, and I wouldn't hesitate to call them again.

Very unprofessional, totally scammed by these so called plumbers, demand over the top payment but won't give you an invoice, unless pushed. They change their contact number as soon as you complain.

Terrible guy. He pushed my cat sitter to do a service an overpriced job. He charged £58 for the visit and nothing sorted. It was pretty simple to solve it

You win some, you lose some. This was a loss. Do not use this company, just don’t. Nearly £300 for a leaky pipe…it still leaks. I’ve had another plumber/kitchen fitter look at the work done and he said that was not the work of a plumber. “George” outsources the work to third parties who are not up to scratch. 5 star google reviews are a smoke screen, and on this website you get the full picture. Not good.

charged me £1700 for a quick bath leak, when you ring this number "george the plumber" it takes you to a different person each time, they sub contract the work out it seems, goes back to a "Taher Shar" who actually carries out "5 day plumber courses" who pray on vulnerable people.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THEY SIGNIFICANTLY OVERCHARGE FOR THEIR WORK.

Communication good- plumber arrived on time. £48 call out (which is understandable). Quoted £800 for a shower light. We said was too expensive- so he charged an extra £20 for cancelling the job. This was for my elderly parents who just accepted this additional cost. When I tried to call to complain- the call was constantly‘cut off’. Appalling that companies such as this are allowed to operate. I just hope that future customers check this site before using this company.

Avoid avoid...I cancelled my appointment as I sensed something was not right, now they won't stop calling me from different numbers claiming the appointment is still on!!
