Form, equal to function

“However, the thing that sets Linden apart from his peers is his ability to fully consider form as equal to function.”

Julie Hill, Google review

The pipework has to be right, and so does the finish. Fluted freestanding baths, crittall-style screens, backlit mirrors and timber vanities: the bathrooms below are all Linden’s own installs.

Huge thanks to Linden for fixing a leaking stop tap on such short notice. He’s an absolute gentleman and a top-notch plumber. It’s so rare to find someone this reliable and genuinely helpful. If you’re looking for a trustworthy professional who really cares about his clients, Linden is your man

Linden posseses all the qualities one would expect from a tradesman with a 5 * review. He is reliable, punctional and professional. His practical skills are exceptional and knowledge of current materials and techniques, impressive. However, the thing that sets Linden apart from his peers is his ability to fully consider form as equal to function. In my experience such an aesthetic awareness is a rare commodity in the trades. He is also able to preempt problems before they arise and creatively employs the appropriate solution, thus saving time and money. Linden has a extremely strong work ethic and no job is finished until he is completely satisfied with the results. Our bathroom and kitchen stand as shining examples of the quality of his work. We couldnt be happier. It is with no hesitation that we highly recommend Lindon - he is a rare find!

I recently hired Linden to install a tabletop dishwasher in my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment he arrived, he was professional, punctual, and clearly knowledgeable about the installation process. Linden assessed the space quickly and gave helpful suggestions on placement and plumbing connections to ensure everything would work smoothly. The installation was done efficiently and neatly, with great attention to detail. What really stood out was his friendly attitude and willingness to go the extra mile like tidying up the area afterward. Thanks to his expertise, my new dishwasher is running perfectly and has made life so much easier. Highly recommend Linden to anyone looking for quality, reliable plumbing work

Had Linden round to fix a pipe at the back of our house, he was brilliant. Turned up on time, quickly figured out what the issue was, explained everything clearly, and got it sorted really efficiently. The work was done to a great standard and he was tidy and professional throughout. Would definitely recommend him, excellent plumber

Duncanc StephensGoogle, June 2025

We'd give more stars to Linden if it was possible. Neat, tidy and professional. Would recommend him to anyone needing plumbing and gas work. We had a new boiler fitted and work done in a new extension being built. Top notch, very pleased with the results.
