Derek and his team removed an old hot water tank that we had in the cupboard, installed a new boiler, fitted all new pipes for the boiler and also installed a new shower in the bathroom. Derek and his team were very reliable, very professional and worked to a very high standard. Communication was great and any questions we had were very well explained. We will definitely use Derek in the future and we have already recommended him to friends. Look no further if you are looking to get a job done.

Derek upgraded our bathroom and removed the bath and installed a walk in shower. He fitted new w.c and basin along with new bathroom furniture.
The flooring was replaced and ceiling panels fitted. He arranged the plastering and electrical work for us.
A very professional and tidy worker who cleared up and removed all the rubbish.
Derek is highly recommended by us and the standard of his work is first class

Derek refitted my en-suite bathroom for me; taking out the old bathroom suite, removing tiles and wallpaper from the walls and fitted a new bathroom suite and furniture. He also retiled the walls and tiled the bathroom floor. In addition Derek increased the water pressure by repairing/altering the boiler and moved a couple of radiators in the bedrooms. The work was carried out to a very high standard within the planned work schedule, at a very reasonable price. Derek has done work for me previously and I have recommended Derek to friends who have also been very happy with the excellent service he provides.

The work required was a total refit of our bathroom including all tiling and plumbing and prepare the additional toilet floor and bathroom floor ready for fitting vinyl. Derek and his team were very punctual, professional, pleasant, friendly and very tidy!
Derek did a fantastic job of the bathroom and a number of other extra tasks such as to redirect the bathroom water supply to the main water supply from a roof tank, fit new taps in the toilet and fit some of the bathroom accessories with the end result exceeding our expectations.
All the work was carried out efficiently and properly and within the planned timescales.
We are delighted with our new bathroom and would not hesitate to recommend Derek to anyone thinking of having similar work done.

We had our whole bathroom redone. We had an old fashioned wet room. Had the whole removed and the floor replenished as it was wet and rotting.
Derek managed everything smoothly and organised the tiler and plasterer.
Everything went without a hitch.
Derek is an incredibly tidy worker and considerate when in your house. No evidence that he has been there apart from the fantastic bathroom!
We have phoned Derek for help and advise since we have moved into our house and nothing has ever been a problem. Helped us with our boiler and radiator and we are nothing but happy!!

I have known Derek for almost 30 years. He is very punctual, reliable and has a vast expedience in plumbing and other related trades. He can work solo or can organise a team of other skilled tradesmen with great efficiency. I have recommended Derek's services to several members of my family who are all very happy and satisfied with his work. I will most definitely be employing his talents in the future.

Derek is an honest, reliable and skilled tradesman. He refitted our bathroom, fitted radiators, advised us on a builder for an attic conversion and fitted the attic en-suite. We are beyond pleased with the quality of his work and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others.

Shower leak investigated and fixed, shower door removed, tiles stripped and everything replaced. Multiple old radiators replaced with new including some plumbing adjustments to suit new metric sizes. Boiler serviced. Solar hot water system fixed and re-commissioned. Derek was polite, helpful when asked to do additional work, good at communicating through the Covid lockdown ( he started work before and finished work after lockdown) and his work was of a high standard. Clearly a trader who cares about the quality of his work and ensuring he does a thorough job to the satisfaction of his customers. Would definitely use again and have no hesitation recommending him.

We used Derek to renovate our bathroom, transfer a toilet from one room to another, and remove a boiler and radiators. The bathroom renovation included removing a bathtub and installing a shower and toilet alongside tiling the floor and walls. He coordinated the tiling and electrical work with additional tradespeople which was completed to a very high standard.
Derek was very helpful throughout the process and we would not hesitate to recommend or use his services again. He left everything neat and tidy and was thorough and attentive to every little detail.

The work we had done was the total refit of our bathroom and second toilet. Derek and his team did a fantastic job in helping us make the right design decisions at the start in order to get a bathroom that not only met our needs but was also way better looking than we could ever have imagined. The work was carried out efficiently and properly with the utmost professionalism and friendliness from start to finish and caused less disruption and time than we had anticipated. We are delighted with our new bathroom and would not hesitate to recommend Derek to anyone thinking of having similar work done.

Replacement Boiler. Initially came to inspect existing boiler and gave impartial advice and guidance. This is the second time Derek has undertaken work for us. At all times punctual, professional and work carried out within the time planned. When work completed all areas left tidy. Initial estimate was slightly higher than others but chose to go ahead because of previous positive experience, final costs were less than anticipated and reflected in bill. Would definitely recommend.

Derek was recommended to us. He covered the plumbing aspects of installing a shower room. He was creative, prompt, efficient, helpful, and capable. A pleasure to have around. His bill was very reasonable.

Derek is a top notch plumber, really good skills, very organised and punctual.
The work around our Boiler and Water Tank is almost a work of art.
Probably too nice for his own good, but the best Tradesman we have had.
Not sure he needs this review, because he must get a lot of repeat work and word of mouth work.

Derek was very helpful to me when I was planning to replace all my radiators, relocating some, with very reliable advice.
He always was on time, and tidied up meticulously every day.
His work was excellent, and he coordinated easily with the painters & decorators!
I will need him again soon for bathroom work, & probably a new boiler.
I would recommend him highly.

We used Derek Christie Plumbing to fully upgrade our central heating system. This involved fully replacing the boiler and all existing radiators, as well as moving some to different locations in the rooms and adding new ones to increase the house output where required.
Derek was able to suggest the best solution for our needs at a very reasonable price. He and the other engineers who attended completed the work ahead of schedule and kept things tidy throughout the works. We remaining living in the house while the work was complete with minimal disruption to our normal routine.
We are really happy with the work and would full recommend him to others!

Derek and his colleagues installed a new bathroom for us including all tiling and plumbing. The work was carried out very professionally. The team turned up when they said they would, were always polite and courteous, and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each working day. The work was performed to a very high standard.
Very pleased and would readily recommend.

We had our bathroom shower repaired and restored. All the bathroom tiles removed and replaced with splash back boards. This now makes the bathroom look very clean and bright. The shower looks and feels brand new. We were very pleased with all aspects of the work, which was carried out to a high standard and in a timely fashion. We would definitely use this company again and highly recommend.
