Great Service
My job was posted at 2.30pm and this Company contacted me, within minutes. The plumber arrived on time, was cheerful and courteous. I was pleased, relieved and most of all astonished at how little it cost. I will definitely use this company again.
Repair to leaking toilet cistern
RAW was the first company to contact me for this job. Communication was very straightforward and clear. Mark carried out a thorough assessment of the problem, was able to source the parts needed to fix it at short notice, and had the whole thing re-sealed with a fresh donut installed within an hour.
Superfast call-out on a Saturday
Had a non-flushing downstairs toilet. Sent a message through Checkatrade and got a call back within about 10 mins. Had their engineer, Richie, looking at it within about 90 mins! Richie was really kind, helpful and thorough. Very polite and knowledgeable too. I would absolutely recommend RAW and look forward to using them again. Thanks, lads!
New drain and drain repair
Had issues plumbing in a new washing machine because the water overflowed into the cupboard when we tried it. Believed it to be blocked. Now been informed by RAW that it's a descaling issue which is the next stage of work to be done.
