Ryan Cohen, DO NOT USE this plumber as he is untrustworthy & uncommuniative, I paid him a substantial deposit and no work has been done to fit Central Heating. I have been unable to get my deposit back & don't get any replies to my messages. I also gave him the option of still doing the job with no response. Meanwhile the house renovation is stopped with no hot water or heating! :-) Didn't want to give any stars but post wouldn't complete without,

Welcome Hi, my name is Lewis and I am the founder and project manager at The People’s Building Group. At the PBG, I personally promise that any work performed by myself or by my trusted team will be completed to the highest standard as well as being in line with our own expectations and the wishes of our clients. We strive to offer value for money whilst maintaining high standards, our pricing is ordinarily in line with the industry standards so please do not be alarmed if our quote appears much lower than our competitors. Often times we are able to reduce material costs as we operate a ‘no waste’ policy and purchase core materials in bulk. By doing so we are able to pass on the savings to our valued customers. In the event you prefer to source materials yourself, please feel free. Providing they are suitable for purpose we will happily comply. Although we are very new to Rated people, please do not let this put you off. We are a group of hard working lads eager to make our mark in the building trade. Please find attached a sample of our work in the Photo Gallery below as it will give you a better insight to our capabilities. Our workshop is centrally located in Walton, L4 but we are able to to accommodate contracts across the North West and beyond, subject to the works required. The primary advantage of having this space is that we can perform the inconvenient ‘messy‘ tasks offsite ensuring your next project has minimal impact on your everyday life. Individually our partners are well respected in their respective fields, but by choosing to contact us we will vouch for their services and provide added assurances that any works completed will be done to a standard that is representative of our own.
