Can anyone recommend me a plumber in Brighton?

[Man of Harveys]

Sorry about this but the hot water at Harveys Towers has packed up. As a result I have the choice either to smell even worse than normal or suffer cold showers in the morning. And I don't trust the dodgy sods that advertise in the Yellow Pages and Leader.

Need someone who knows what to do with a boiler (i.e that CORGI stuff)...any recommendations either posted below or via PM would be very much appreciated. Cheers.

You want that one off those video's I've, er, heard about who accepts "payment in kind" after fixing your plumbing.

 

[Man of Harveys]

Hmm, in that I could only offer small change at the moment...the cold showers are taking their toll.

If he's still living Christopher Plumber lives in Brighton ... and he was very good in the Sound of Music

Helpful bunch aren't we?

Does the central heating still work? If so it probably isn't the boiler unless you've got a combi in which case its almost certainly the hot water changeover valve/diaphragm.

this guys pretty good

 

[Man of Harveys]

Cheers. It is a combi boiler. And, like its owner, it's far from in the first flushes of youth.

As a temporary fix until you get a plumber, try turning all the radiators off except the one nearest the boiler, run the central heating until the one rad gets hot, then open a hot tap and it might conduct heat from the heating circuit. It totally depends on the type of boiler and the heat exchanger inside but its worth a try to get a bit of hot/warm water.

Oh yeah, as a side-note don't touch Ace Boiler Services in Sackville road. I won't go into details on here but a mate of mine used them. Not good. In fact very bad.

When I lived @ Fiveways, used to always use the plumber known only as 'Mr.Williams'. Top bloke! Wondrously old skool prices! Not got a phone number but he's a dead ringer for Maxi Jazz out of Faithless if that helps.


Actually, that doesn't help at all does it?
