It’s not easy finding a good plumber in Edinburgh, especially when you really need one in a hurry. In my experience word-of-mouth recommendations are usually the best but not always possible. Not every plumber does every job and some jobs suit handymen rather than companies, while other jobs suit companies rather than handymen.
As it happens the website RatedPeople is designed to let you share the problem you need fixing, the plumbing you want done, with a community of traders for them to get back in touch with you. It’s how I found Bann Joinery, which are excellent, for the kitchen fitter project. Sometimes, though, you’d rather find the plumber yourself than simply share a problem and the random plumbers approach you.
Edinburgh Reviews dug into Rated People’s records and found there are only six plumbers in the whole of Edinburgh who average 5/5 stars after 30 or more reviews. Not every plumber in Edinburgh is in Rated People, of course, but let’s share these six.
