Bathroom Plumbing
Central Heating
A qualified plumber handles everything from dripping taps and blocked drains to full bathroom installations and central heating systems. Plumbing problems rarely wait for a convenient moment — a burst pipe or a failing boiler can cause serious water damage within hours, which is why having access to a trusted, local professional matters. On HireTrades you can compare genuine customer reviews, check verification badges and request multiple quotes before committing to anyone.
When hiring a plumber, always confirm they are experienced in the specific work you need. General plumbing (taps, toilets, radiators, pipework) does not legally require certification in the UK, but any work involving a gas boiler must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer — ask for their registration number and check it online. For bathroom refits, ask to see photos of previous installations and confirm whether tiling, electrics and waste connections are included in the quote or subcontracted.
Typical plumber rates in the UK range from £40–£80 per hour, or £150–£350 per day depending on region and experience. Small jobs such as replacing a tap or fixing a leak usually cost £60–£150. A new bathroom installation typically runs £2,000–£6,000 including materials, while a full central heating system can cost £3,000–£5,500. Emergency callouts usually carry a premium of £80–£120 for the first hour. Always request an itemised written quote so you can compare like for like.
Every plumber on HireTrades builds a public track record: verified reviews from real customers, response-time statistics and a completed-jobs history you can inspect before you get in touch. Posting a job is free and takes two minutes — describe the problem, add a photo if you can, and interested local plumbers will come to you with quotes. That competition works in your favour and typically saves homeowners 10–25% compared with calling the first number they find.
