Good plumber in Ealing

I am trying to locate a plumber who previously did some work for me but whose business card I have lost. He wore a turban and is based near the Drayton Court Hotel. Hope you can help. Many thanks.

4C's heating?  Or maybe Satpal from Avenue Supplies?

Thanks G, I'll check them out.

There is also Colin O, who is both GAS SAFE (CORGI) as well as Part P (Electrical) qualified.His mobile number is 07759-768-060.

Does Colin wear a Turban?

G Lord ● 6089d

Satpal is not exactly cheap, but I suspect he has a loyal following, and so why should he worry.Experience good workmanship knowledge a sense of humour dedication attention to detail and professionalism and common sense - that's Satpal.

No he does not have one, may be he is just too tall for that :-). Colin Ovenstone has done a lot of work in Ealing and lives in Ealing.

and he has a Turban plus is located near the Drayton Hotel which is why I suggested to the original poster that this might be the bloke he was looking for.The OP was about finding a specific person who had already done some plumbing work.

Satpal is the owner of Avenue Supplies opposite the Drayton Court and wears a turban. Definitely a good bloke for plumbing jobs. He is not in anyway a kid just out of school, but in fact is rather old school.

Andy, is the description of Satpal matching with the person that did your plumbing before?Avenue Supplies also sell the fox repellent I used.

G Lord ● 6088d

I think so. I went to Avenue Supplies today and I think it is the same bloke. Many thanks G,

But is that Gas Safe and Part P qualifed?

Jim Wong ● 6073d

Avenue Supplies has Part P qualified above the door.There is something else, but can't recall, pretty sure it was Corgi registered.

G Lord ● 6073d

Believe "Corgi Registered" has been replaced with something else - can't remember the new term though.

Gas Safe!

Jim Wong ● 6073d

Corgi registered has been replaced by Gas Safe.  But am not sure if Avenue Supplies have replaced their sign yet.  Does it matter?  The plumber has been identified (we think!).

What matters is that any plummer are suitably "qualified" and u have checked their qualification (online) b4 u let them start working. As I ahd some "builders" who have been working in the business for over 20 years. They are not qualified or up to date with the building regulations and tried to do build a wall without the correct gap, as he had been doing for years, so it must be ok from his point of view. It was with me, so he is so "sacked".Luckly I managed to get any team in and they did a fantasic job, but they are managed by someone who is "qaulified" and "trained".
