Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.  Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.  We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.  Ask the firm for their side of the story.
 


 
Good Practice
Businesses have a legal responsibility to treat you fairly, but it's often hard to know what questions to ask or what standards to expect.  They are the experts and you should be able to rely on them to help you make decisions.  These questions explain the commitments that this business has made to follow a code of practice and they will help you understand what you have a right to expect.
 
Charges: 100%
Before starting work, did the firm explain the charges including labour, materials, callout & VAT (as appropriate)?
 
Timing: 100%
Before starting work, did the firm explain when the work was expected to start and finish?
 
Payment: 100%
Before starting work, did the firm explain how to pay (e.g. cash, cheque, etc.)?
 
Reliable: 100%
During the work, did the firm keep their promises, explaining and agreeing any changes about the work, costs or timing where necessary?
 
Invoice: 100%
On completion, did the firm give you an invoice showing the cost of materials, labour and VAT?
 
Guarantee: 100%
On completion, did the firm give you a guarantee for a specified amount of time, or usage (where applicable)?
You can see how many customers have said "Yes" in answer to each question, but please don't expect 100% in every case.  Nobody's perfect and some customers may not be completely sure about the answer.  It's more important that you understand these questions and discuss them with the business so that you both agree what good service means for you.  A responsible business will be happy to explain the details to you and it's always better to clarify these points upfront to avoid misunderstandings later on.

We have had multiple jobs done by Michael, from full replumbing of a cottage, installation of a new boiler, new shower installation to simple toilet and sink repairs. We have had jobs done ranging in price from £7,000 - £50

"We used Michael to overhaul the plumbing and heating pipework throughout a cottage that we were renovating. Michael ensured that the work was completed on time and to budget, and he kept us informed of progress and any challenges that were uncovered during the work. The cottage was left completely tidy and clean after the work was completed and in the two three years since completion all has functioned faultlessly.

We used Michael to install a new oil-fired boiler to our property, he arranged all the appropriate resources for the installation and managed the project very well, completing on time and to budget.

Michael also installed a new shower and advised on general rework of waterproof wall coverings in the bathroom as a whole, resulting in effectively a new bathroom which we are very happy with.

We also use Michael for any ad-hoc plumbing issues and find him to be very responsive, and able to resolve all issues quickly and at very reasonable rates.

Michael is a very responsive and conscientious plumber, he is really easy to get on with and communicates very well during and jobs both large and small. All jobs have been completed to a very high standard and in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend him for jobs of all sizes."

Replaced and moved radiators + upgraded entire plumbing system.

"Michael’s calm, approachable and friendly manner meant he was a pleasure to have in my home. He showed great patience, explaining everything to me in simple nontechnical terms and was more than happy to go over things numerous times to make sure I understood everything at every stage of the job.
His work was excellent, his pricing great value (especially given the standard of the work carried out) and, having had issues with some other tradespeople, he has more than restored my faith and as such I cannot recommend him highly enough"

The work carried out by Michael Stewart was the installation of a bathroom suite.

"I hired Michael Stewart to fit my bathroom for me and from the beginning he was a pleasure to be around, good work ethic, sense of humour and clearly very knowledgeable in his trade. He carried out the work quickly while on the site and was very understanding when it came to working around my busy schedule. He was always very punctual and worked well with the other tradesmen involved. I highly recommend his business to those seeking a reliable plumber."

I have had several jobs done by Michael Stewart plumbing as I manage 12 Holiday houses. he always turns up as soon as he can and often at a moments notice. He laways carries out the work to a good standard, and all my house owners are happy with the results. The latest job involved two visits to house in Rockcliffe to fix a broken plug mechanism. He advised us on the cheapest option and then carried out the work satisfactorily. The price charged included two trips out to Rockcliffe and two hours work, phonecalls etc.

"I have described the job details above."

Both toilet cisterns were in need of repair, the flushes not working properly.
