1st About Plumbing & Carpentry Ltd is described by several customers as giving a professional and efficient service. One reviewer said the team re-routed a water supply to avoid lifting Karndean flooring and came the next day, leaving everything clean and tidy. Others report a blocked shower drain cleared after patient, persistent work, and two plumbers sorting mains water issues with Southern Water were called brilliant. One reviewer praised two staff for timekeeping, professionalism and keeping them in the loop. A separate reviewer, who did not comment on the work itself, said they would avoid the firm because of how one of its vehicles was driven, describing cutting people up and rude, abusive behaviour.

I had 1st About Plumbing & Carpentry investigate a leak under my Karndean flooring. Instead of lifting the floor and causing major disruption, they recommended re‑routing the water supply with an MDPE pipe, which was absolutely the right approach and kept disturbance to a minimum. Once I decided to go ahead, they went out of their way to accommodate me and came the very next day. Martin, Aaron and another gentleman arrived on time, worked efficiently and professionally, and left everything clean and tidy. I’m genuinely impressed with their honesty, workmanship and the effort they made to minimise disruption. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended, I would not hesitate to make them my first call for plumbing services! Superb, efficient response, my shower drain had blocked and they were patient and persistent .... using various options until voila! They cleared the blockage (2 small shower hooks, a bit of hair and a plastic label🤔). Thanks again gentlemen, excellent service and a very happy customer

Had 2 plumbers out to sort issues with my mains water via Southern water and they were brilliant.

I can’t formally speak on their work, but if they work like they drive I would avoid! Cutting people up, then rude and abusive to the people they cut up… not professional at all!
