    George came; did my work quietly and respectfully. Noted a problem (big gaping crack in the pipe under the bench), and asked if we would like to change it. No pressure applied, and just added it to his list when I gave the go ahead. Would use this company again and again.

    The team at Doherty Plumbing provided exceptional services at very short notice to fix my hot water system. Their quote was very fair and honest quote where other plumbers were charging extortionate amounts for the same problem. They were able to fix the issue within the day and communicated very well. I highly recommend their services.

    James was professional and knowledgeable. He explained my shower leaking issues as I was not able to attend myself. The plumbing work was completed promptly. And I was advised next steps with Tiler to make water proof. Very helpful and would definitely recommend to my family & friends.
