    Build Internal Stud Wall for Shower

    I suppose the alarm bells should have rung when Ezekial turned up in a car rather than a van, and consequently had to use many of my tools, as he did not have enough of his own to complete the job. He was aware he was fitting a shower and completing some partitioning, and he charged me for that. However, he had not brought, for example, silicone sealant with him or proper cutting blades to cut metal stud work (yet knew the house had metal stud work), so he used mine. When he left, I had to skim the plasterboard joints where there was a discrepancy of 5mm, but what was a major concern was the fumes that were coming from the now-fitted shower tray. Looking from the ceiling below, I could see that the pipework was under strain. where Ezekial had not cut a big enough hole in the floorboards. This meant that the trap was not central to the shower hole, and putting a spirit level on the showertray it was not level. In fact, the run was 8mm different from one end to the other, meaning that if I had not checked, then the doors would not fit, and if I had left it and the shower was tiled, then everything would have had to be ripped out at a huge cost. Also, having looked up more information on installing a shower tray, I learnt that it should have been bedded on a weak sand/cement mix to aid levelling and to prevent strain on the tray with movement in the floorboards. Ezekial had placed it on an uneven chipboard floor. After contacting him, as apparently they have a guarantee, to raise my concerns, he said that the fumes were normal and, for goodwill, would replace the trap with one that blocks the fumes. When I pointed out that the tray should have been bedded on sand and cement, I did not hear from him again. The standard of work is shocking. I have taken out the tray myself, as it was just lying loose on the floor and also removed the trap, and will get competent contractors in to redo the work. I strongly suggest that anyone thinking of employing this contractor forget it. He’s not cheap, and he has happily taken my money despite knowing that his standard of work is poor. He talks the talk, and anyone who doesn’t know much about plumbing may be fooled by his shoddy work, so please keep well clear, or, like me, it will cost you dear in the end. If I could give him 0 out of 5, I would. The decent thing to do, Ezekial, would be to refund some of the money you have taken from me.

    Thank you for the review. In regards to the tools, this is incorrect as I actually gave you around £90 worth of blades for your multitool. The fumes coming from your trap are todo with your waste further down line line being incorrect. The waste that come with your shower was actually incorrect. We was constantly being watched by yourself and you insisted to help us as your used to watching "youtube" to learn how todo things to your property. Yes I did arrive in my car due to my van being in the garage currently getting its engine replaced. I did also offer to come back and amend anything your stating is wrong. When I put a level on the shower tray it was perfectly level.
    Full Small Bathroom Refurbishment

    Excellent service from start to finish. The bathroom fitting was completed to a very high standard and exactly as promised. They showed an exceptional work ethic, going above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for me and my family. Reliable, professional, and great attention to detail. I would highly recommend their services and will definitely be using them again in the future.

    New Shower Enclosure Installation

    After being scammed by 2 previous plumbers who took our money for materials and then never did the job our faith in tradesmen was very low. Ezekiel from D&G Plumbing & Maintenance got in touch regarding our post and I can not express how happy and pleased we were to find a true & honest person. Ezekiel was true to everyone word he said, he kept to all timescales he quoted and to the budget we could afford. He was in touch with every stage of choosing the items, delivery of purchased items and then arrived on time on the date he specified. His work was exceptional and I can not praise him high enough for the service he provided. He kept to all his deadlines, no excuses or delays like we had previously experienced and it was so nice for everyone in the house to be able to enjoy a shower again after being without a shower in the house for the last 6 weeks due to the previous promises from untrustworthy plumbers. If you need a plumbing job done and done correctly, pain & hassle free, I can highly recommend D & G Plumbing & Maintenance & will be saving their number for any further jobs we may have. Thank you ever so much for restoring my faith in tradesman and for delivering a new shower unit & enclosure so quickly and efficiently. ***** exceptional service who I would definitely recommend & use again

    Replace Kitchen Bridge Tap

    Turned down the offer of photos of the job required before visit .Polite and arrived on time wasn't properly equipped to do the job borrowing sockets and a torch on site wasted an hour plus on phone and trying to remove a bell fast sink which was unnecessary in my opinion.before failing and then following my suggestion. Needing my assistance with removing component parts and also assembling new fittings. Final project works as it should. Cleaned up after. Took a lot longer than it should have.the invoice in my opinion reflects very poor value for money

    D&G Plumbing and Maintenance
    Very sorry about this. The original tap was fitted incorrectly and to install a kitchen tap you wouldn't tend to need a socket set for removing. You normally would use a tap spanner for removal, but your previous kitchen fitter didnt leave enough space a plumber to use correct tools.I dont tend to carry a socket set for changing a tap. Apologies that you feel this way. I wish you voiced your concerns whilst I was there so we could have resolved your concerns
