Hi,
Can anyone suggest a good plumber in the Thurso area?
We have a tap that won't stop leaking, and its driving us nutty!
Thanks :)

I'm having a garage extension built and I am about ready for the tiles to get put on. Before I can do this tho I need a plumber I believe for the lead flashing where the two roofs meet.
Does anyone know someone that would be interested ?

We have always used Simpson & Oag and never had any trouble with them.

Have to disagree, phoned them on two different occasions and they had a plumber up within the hour, couldn`t have asked for better service.

well all i can say lol, is that if they were there within the hour it must either of been an emergency or you must be a Relative, Friend, Neighbour or have some kind of Influence because they certainly dont respect their ordinary customers and at the end of the day my money is as good as yours and they didnt even have the decency to call and cancel, no wonder more and more folk dont support the local business's

Maybe I have just been lucky, no it certainly was not an emergency nor am I a friend/relative etc etc. One thing I will say though, if possible I find it good policy to contact tradespeople as early as poss in the day, this allows for planning and juggling of the days work ahead.

On our initial call for an appointment they said they would call us with a convient Day & Time to which they did, they just failed to turn up on the day with no call of explination, so no i wont be giving them a second chance plus it cost me a half day off work just to fit around them

I must agree with souperman, i always use Simpson and Oag and have always found them to be excellent and have had no problems. Very helpful girls in the office too whenever i have been in
