Checkatrade search result for plumber
I found Braiden Plumbing & Heating on CheckaTrade.com. They were the first plumber to accept my request for a fix for a leaking bathroom mixer tap. I was contacted by Keiran, who explained what they needed to do and when they could fit me in, along with an estimated cost.
They kept me informed about my booking and the plumber David arrived on schedule to find and fix our leak in a polite and friendly manner. After 40 minutes he left with no mess or puddles and I received an invoice for the work later the same day.
I would have no hesitation in using them again and would recommend to my family and friends also.

Perfection
We have used Braiden Plumbing many times over the years for huge, big and small jobs.
They have always provided excellent service.
They arrive on time and work solidly until the job is done then clean up afterwards.
Highly recommended.
Forget the rest, Braiden is best
I want to recommend Braiden, we have been pleased with their service, they listen and advise. They completed each problem we have had without taking over our home and with a really efficient attitude.
Vinnie has a vast professional knowledge
Would Not Recommend for Drain Unblocking
Review of Braiden Plumbing and Heating ⭐
I booked this company to unblock the bathtub drain and fix a leak behind the bidet. The plumber did not arrive for the morning appointment and rescheduled for the afternoon, which disrupted my day.
The leak behind the bidet turned out to be a very minor issue (simply repositioning a rubber washer). However, the main reason I booked the service was to have the drainage pipes from the bathtub and bidet properly unblocked. For this, the plumber only used a vacuum cleaner, made little effort, and did not resolve the problem at all.
Despite completing only half of the job, I was charged £120, which was explained as their minimum call-out fee. If they are unable to unblock drains, they should not advertise it as a service. At the very least, they should make clear that they only attempt simple blockages using a vacuum cleaner.
Overall, I feel I wasted my time and money, and I would not recommend Braiden Plumbing and Heating based on this experience.
Would 100% recommend
Would 100% recommend. Had a boiler service done — the engineer was friendly, professional, and took the time to thoroughly explain everything he had done. Great service!
Toilet Cistern Fix

New Boiler
Were able to get the work done at short notice. Polite, professional and personable. Set everything up and registered prior to leaving and cleaned the work area.
Excellent service
Arrived on time. They managed to repair the tap rather than replace it.Good for the environment and the purse too.
Efficient and effective service
It was easy to contact the company and they sent a plumber quickly to fix a leaking tap. The plumber was polite, efficient and helpful and did a good job. The repair was expensive but we were happy with the service.

Great Service
Easy to book someone to come and check out a small leak at my property. Arrived exactly at the time that was booked. Luckily it was a minor issue and managed to sort it straight away. Did not rush and he fully insured that the issue was resolved before leaving. Would use again for my plumbing needs
Excellent friendly service
Excellent friendly service. Problem solved efficiently. Would certainly recommend
