Derek came as promised to fix my leaking shower box, which was actually connected initially by different plumbers. Those didn't show interest to come back and fix the problems, so I was forced to call Derek, who saved me from further troubles, and charged very small amount. Also as a person Derek is pleasant to talk to, he is polite and educated. Definitely would recommend his services ❤️

Due to several ongoing problems Derek fitted a new hot water cylinder in a cramped & dirty attic space, upgrading us to an unvented (mains pressure) system.
He coordinated a small team to provide electrical, joinery & plumbing services as required, leaving a very clean & tidy installation which was vastly superior to the original. Work was completed with minimal disruption, under (a very reasonable) estimated cost and ahead of time.
Racking my brain to find negatives I can only say that his phone sometimes sent duplicate messages!
A first-class tradesman I would confidently recommend to anyone.

I contacted Derek to refurbish my main bathroom and was very happy with the whole experience!
Derek gave us great ideas and advice on products from tiles to furniture giving us plenty of time to choose what we liked.
Great communication with daily emails/messages about the status of the job.
The way they worked was always very clean and tidy and didn't cause any inconveniences in our daily lives.
Overall, really recommended

Replace bathroom heated towel rail and also a new sink tap. Very happy to go 5 star rating and to recommend Derek. Everything went to plan with no issues. Derek also did work for us last year removing an old walk in shower unit and tiling and then fitting bath with shower head and wall panels. Obviously very happy with his work then as well. Our family also use Derek for plumbing and heating work.

We found Derek via the Trusted Trader website, we could not be happier to find him. Very professional, highly skillful, very clean afterwards, and competitive on costs. We looked for several other companies, but they requested a ridiculous amount of money for just a shower installation in a bath, which according to them would take 3-5 days to be done. Derek did in 6 hours! The details and the diligence to carry on the job was quite impressive. I would recommend him without hesitation, and I hope he could find a spot in his busy calendar to fix other things in our bathrooms.

Derek came to rectify works that had been done through an Adaptation Grant with City of Edinburgh Council to change bathroom into wet room. He resolved all of the issues I had with the toilet, sink and shower pump. He was skilfully able to problem solve the issues and rectify them. Excellent communication via text/phone. Always on time, clean and tidy at all times. Very clear on the work he was proposing. This is the fourth time I’ve asked Derek to do work for me. All jobs have been completed to excellent standards. I would have no hesitation in recommending Derek to you.

We decided to completely renovate our bathroom as the previous job was DIY by previous owner so not really v good. Derek quoted a reasonable price and we had seen his work done at a friends round the corner so were happy to use his services. The renovation was great and there were a couple of issues (related to products supplied, not Derek's skills) that were sorted quickly by him. Neighbours even commented that they didn't hear too muich noise so have engaged him for work aswell! I would definately recommend Dereks bathroom renovation services!

I had an entire new bathroom fitted and was very impressed by the high quality work and Derek's attention to detail. The cost was fair for the amount of work involved.

Derek recently completed a full refurbishment of my bathroom. He was very easy to deal with and kept me well up to date. He was friendly and professional and him and his team were very hard working. He answered all my questions and provided advice on things I was unsure of. The refit was a very smooth process and that was all down to Derek. I'm very pleased with how everything turned out and wouldn't hesitate to use him in the future / recommend him to others.

We are so pleased with the work Derek and his team did on our two bathrooms and would recommend him very highly.
Derek kept us up to date at all stages of the process, was always punctual, professional and tidied up after each day of work. He has a real attention to detail and we appreciated his experience and advice on some areas which we were unsure on.
The final product of our bathrooms exceeded our expectations and we are really pleased, thank you again for all your hard work. Would definitely use again.

We have had Derek complete a full re fit of the main bathroom 18months ago and in Jan this year we had our small toilet re fitted. Derek is very professional, conscientious, reliable, tidy and keeps you updated at all times. Both jobs completed to a high standard and on time. We have already referred family and they are happy with their completed bathroom as well.

Derek recently overhauled our Bathroom. His attention to detail was outstanding, he gave us recommendations which we would never have considered. The quality of the products used and his workmanship was 5 star. The Bathroom is just stunning. There was no mess and he cleaned up as he went along. He also changed all our radiators and fitted a new immersion heater. I would not hesitate in recommending Derek and would definitely use him again .

Derek and his team completed a full bathroom refurb.
From start to finish they did a perfect and very professional job with excellent attention to detail at a very competitive cost.
Derek discussed everything in advance and made sure I got exactly what I wanted,
Even when I asked for things to be added nothing was a hassle and completed easily with the minimum of mess.
I would highly recomend Derek and his company. I am delighted with my new bathroom

Derek Christie was recommended to us. He has completely refurbished our bathroom including ripping out old bathtub, toilet, wash basin, wall panels and flooring. These were replaced with new pipework for stand in shower, new wiring for led lights and exhaust humidistat, new wall panelling, new flooring and tiles, new heated towel rail, new stand in shower and new toilet suite.
He did all this to perfection with an eye for detail and very high standards. Very reliable, trustworthy, concientious and both he and his managed team worked hard to deliver the project on time. The work area was scrubbed and left spotless and clean at the end of each day of work.
Derek has a very vast experience in Plumbing, heating, and refurbishment jobs and he adapted and applied this in detail professionally and almost artistically to transform our bathroom into a stunning fresh new space. I am sure he does not need this feedback review and he must be loaded with new projects and work through recommendations and word of mouth...Thankyou Derek and team...Will always come back to you for any future projects or repairs.

Great job to replace faulty gas boiler. Derek stayed late to fix a leak
under the bathroom which was causing pressure problems with the shower.
Shower is now working the best it has in years.
Efficient , friendly and cleaned up all the areas they had worked.
