The Best Plumbers in Wimborne Minster, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

I picked Steve because he was top of checkatrade. He is very quick at diagnosing and correcting problems. His charges are fair, transparent and combined with speed, excellent value for money. He is very straight talking and professional. Probably the best plumber I have come across in 25 years. The only problem- he is busy and you have to be prepared to wait for a slot.

Steve came out within a few hours of me calling and fixed my leak, he was on time and did a brilliant job.. I would highly recommend Steve.

Steve came over today to give a quote for some works. He went into such detail when explaining what the works would require, and the same day he sent a very detailed summary of our conversation. A great introduction to a professional, genuine guy. Thank you!

Excellent service at a very fair price. I would highly recommend Steve

Mark has been extremely helpful and understanding on a number of occasions over the phone. We had previously been told by a cowboy company (unbeknownst to us at the time!) that we had thousands of pounds worth of damage and it was urgent we have it done as soon as possible. Phoned Canford Drains (a local company), who reassured us, that with the symptoms we were describing it doesn’t sound as bad as we first thought. Scott has come out to carry out a CCTV survey of our drains today. He has been excellent with showing us the footage, explaining thoroughly what issues there are, how severe / minor they are, and what can be done . This will then all be written up in a report for us along with the footage. (I think this is quite important - the other company didn’t offer us this). Honest and reliable company - wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and will definitely be our first port of call with any further issues with ours or our families drains.

First time we have used this company, very impressed and happy. They came to fix our drains very quickly when we had a huge issue. The problem was resolved quick from the time we called them to them coming out. Great job Guys, I will definitely recommend you and use this company again.

I've had Canford Drains over twice now - most recently to replace a section of subsided pipework. Fantastic service, brick driveway was put back like nothing has happened. One to keep in the contact list for whenever they are needed and shows why they are so highly rated locally.

I'm currently renovating a property that has been empty for more than 2 years so felt it appropriate to have the drainage system checked & cleaned in preparation for my eventual occupation. To be honest, I didn't ring around for this service - based on previous reviews I only contacted Canford Drains. I haven't been disappointed. True to his word Mark fitted me in at the earliest opportunity. Darren & George did a great job making sense of my system, thoroughly & methodically cleaning everything out & allowing me the opportunity to view the images from the camera. Darren explained everything and put my mind at ease. All very professional. No hesitation in recommending the company.

Huw has done amazing work for us one early Saturday morning when we woke up to find a big leak. Felt like we were in good hands from the first communication. Proved equally trustworthy and skilled. Worked efficiently, attention to detail, left clean and tidy. Work was at the highest standards. Will keep him in our books and we would warmly recommend him to others.

Huw recently serviced our boiler. His knowledge is first class, very thorough and explains everything without all the usual jargon. He will now become our go to for all our gas/plumbing needs - couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

A genuine gentleman who is both honest and knowledgeable!! Arrived on time, very clean and tidy work. Huw explained everything that was needed and only charged what he had previously quoted. I attended the appointment as my parents are elderly and i can honestly say that i wouldn't attend in the future, very trustworthy Highly recommended #new customer for life

Huw managed to squeeze me in short notice at the end of the day to fix some leaky radiator valves. He turned up on time and cracked on straight away. He did a brilliant job at fixing the radiator valves and even went one step further and fixed some pipes that were installed badly by the previous owner. All in all a very reliable tradesman and charges a reasonable price. Highly recommended

Nice and polite, did a good job at a reasonable price.

Excellent. Came out same day to look at a problem and had it fixed the next day. My elderly grandmother needed the work and he treated her with the upmost respect and patience. Thank you for your care

As you can see, we've used Joe for years and he's never let us down. Great workmanship and a lovely guy to boot. Was just looking at the excellent external vents and pipework he recently re-routed as part of new boiler installation, and thought it's about time I left a review! Thanks Joe. François and Pam

Fantastic plumber/gas engineer

Great service: we had a leak and he came straightaway and sorted it quickly and efficiently. Very friendly and courteous. We would definitely recommend this company.

We had no hot water downstairs in either the kitchen or WC - Liam was reliable, knowledgeable, friendly & sorted out the problem - good value too 😊 Would definitely recommend!

Massive thank you to Liam for such a quick response, fast fix and genuinely friendly service. In and out within 30 minutes shows me this company know what they’re doing and he was happy to provide some knowledge along the way. I highly recommend you make this guy the first Plumber you call when water hits the fan. He’s got a great work ethic!

I wanted 5 radiators replaced and a thermomostat added to 2 other radiators. I had a lot of difficulty even getting someone to quote for the work so I was pleasantly surprised how quickly Liam got back to me and then booked me in for the work. He arrived on time and completed the work within his estimate. He was very thorough and insisted on tidying up afterwards. Overall a pleasure to work with and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again. Just grateful that I had stocked up on teabags and Caramel wafers beforehand.

Holt Plumbing & Heating recently installed a new heating system into my house and the service was fantastic. From the inital quote to the final handover the guys were all professional and helped to select the best products for the job. Thanks!

We arranged comparison quotes for an Air Source Heat Pump installation from other local companies. Ryan Newman and Ryan Moulton at Holt Plumbing and Heating gave us a very detailed and competitive quote and they provide a comprehensive service. The installation team were highly professional. Removal of the oil fired boiler and installation of a Nibe Air Source Heat Pump is now complete together with replacement radiators, plumbing and electrics. We have a comfortably warm house throughout the day, and in the evening reduce the heat from bedroom radiators. The hot water provided is more than adequate! We are incredibly impressed with the service that this company provides, and also the technology provided by Nibe, the heat pump is quieter than the old oil fired boiler, and appears to be very energy efficient! We thoroughly recommend this company.

After dithering about whether we should get solar for over a year Holt gave us detailed projections and a very competitive quote and in under a month from saying yes the panels were up and generating next day! Great communication, from Mark, Ryan and the team and the works carried out neatly and without any disruption. Highly recommended for both the panels and any boiler work required. 5 stars all round.

Excellent service from Ryan, Ryan and all the team during the installation of our air source heat pump. Everything went very smoothly, they were all extremely helpful, knowledgeable and hard working. We are very pleased with the heat pump which is keeping the bungalow very warm. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Great service

So glad to have found Keith since moving to the area. He's always been quick to respond to my calls and the work done for us so far (install outside tap, replace boiler fan, new stopcock, leaking toilet.) has been top quality. Also, he's just a really nice guy to deal with. Already lined him up to replace some radiators for us. Highly recommend.

Excellent service. Adrian explained things clearly when I phoned, written quote recieved shortly afterwards was equally detailed, and Lewis the engineer was really good at explaining everything when he arrived. Would certainly use again - but hopefully wont ever have too!

After months of frustration and many plumbers I was advised by my insurance company to contact a leak detection specialist. I have nothing but praise for Adrian and his professional approach to our very frustrating situation. He found two leaks and recommended an excellent plumber. This review isn't only about Adrian's approach to his work but also about how amazing he was with the problems I was having with the insurance company. He was so patient and went above and beyond to be helpful. Thank you.

Adrian and the team were great. We had a leak which they correctly discovered and efficiently dealt with. Also a big plus is that they are local to us (in Wimborne) and part of a well established local firm (Canford Drains which is well known in the area). I was also recommended by my insurance broker to try another national firm (Polygon) which was approximately twice as expensive. Would totally recommend Wessex.

I contacted Lewis to arrange an appointment with him due to a leak in my bathroom. Lewis explained all the stages he would go through to locate the leak. I was very impressed. Lewis arrived on time, was professional and friendly. He located the leak within 2 hours and dealt with it. I was shocked to see the amount of water that was leaking on to the floor under the bath. Lewis was very supportive in what was a very stressful situation for me. I highly recommend this company. Thank you Lewis for doing a great job.

Lovely honest chap. Came to us in an emergency, within 5mins. Very lucky to find NE plumbing

Nick has worked his socks off completely transforming our bathroom. I would highly recommend NE Plumbing and cannot thank Nick enough for his efforts. Thank you 😀

Writing review on behalf of my mum. She was very pleased with Nick's service. Used him a couple of times, very friendly, always done a great job, and tidied up after himself. Would highly recommend!!
