“They have done a great job, changed all tradiator quickly and at a price we agreed. He was very flexible and was able to do work shortly after posting the job. They are good plumbers and I recommend them.”

“Needed an emergency plumber for a leak. They said on the phone he would arrive between 2-4pm (I rang 11am), never showed. Rang again and they said 5-7pm, never showed. Rang again and told I would have to wait until the next day. I said this was an emergency and someone had to come the same day. Finally they agree for someone to come at 10pm. When he turns up the source of the leak was quickly established, however the length of time to resolve the issue was easily 2 hours and no more. However, plumber took his time extending it to 3 hours. This incured me a further £250 per hour charge. When I came to pay the company tried to charge me for 4 hours when the plumber had only been at the property for 3 hours (2 hours of work time if I'm being honest). After agreeing with the company to pay for 3 hours, I finished up paying roughly £1000 for a job that could have been done a lot quicker and more efficiently. Would not recommend. AVOID.”

“They haven't fixed the problem but charged us £450 for nothing and told they will come to fix it the next day for additional £130. We didn't have water for 15 hours. We hired another plumber who fixed the problem within 10 minutes. Don't waste your time and money with South Star Plumbers!”

“Do NOT book these people. They came and tried to do extra work that wasn’t required. Broke part of our toilet and got feces all over the floor. I asked him to leave my house multiple times and he refused, he antagonised us by telling me he was leaving then took 10 minutes slowly packing up his stuff while I stood there and filmed it. They are con artists. And didn’t fix a single thing but I still had to pay £400 only after I said I wasn’t paying the original £650. DO NOT HIRE THEM, the worst experience I’ve ever had!”

“Do not trust these plumbers. They will not tell you true rates, they do not keep you informed on what they are doing, they do things they don't need to do and they run up the clock. Very unpleasant. At least what they have done seems to work. Feel very scammed. Avoid.”

“All I needed was a new kitchen taps fitted and I supplied the taps. I called this company and agreed to the extortionate call out fee of £149 and £189 per hour as It was a Saturday. My little boy, 10, has leukaemia so I needed the house ready for when he came out of hospital. The 'plumber' didn't have a clue what he was doing and kept stopping to ask me. He wanted to rip out the plumbing just to be able to install new taps. This cost me £647.90! he said he would return the next day to finish the job. We had no water. I cancelled because I was a the hospital with my little boy then called another plumber who installed the new taps in less than an hour and cost me just £102 which included putting back the plumbing the previous 'plumber had removed. South Star Plumbers are heartless thieves.”

“Hello, they didnt show up at all, i paid 110 gbp upfront, when i call them they are just saying they will come ,' one second let me check and call you back' i think they are a big scamming operational company making money in an easy way. Someone should call the police or sue them. Look at all these reviews honestly”

“EXTORTIONATE PRICING. FALSE CLAIMS ON THEIR WEBSITE IN REGARDS TO FAIR PRICING AND NO CALL OUT FEE. DO NOT BE DUPED. I called an Emergency Plumber, they arrived and sent an email asking me to accept the fees of £189+VAT for a call out fee and £348+VAT per hour. In comparison to other company quotes, this price is more than double the going rate. Additionally, their website states that for Emergency Plumbing services they don't take call out charges. These people are crooks and will try to extort money from you by any means possible. Very aggressive, forceful and rude. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELVES AND DO NOT USE.”

“Terrible. Quoted me 220 pound/ hour for a leak. I refused the quote and paid the call out charge. Wouldn't leave the house until the money has been transferred into the account”

“Absolutely awful! Called because my sink was uncontrollably leaking this morning and the engineer wouldn’t even turn the mains water off before being paid, apparently “company policy”. Left my house soaking and then had to pay a £298 cancellation fee because they wanted £1980 UPFRONT before doing anything. Useless and left my rented house full of water and mess. DO NOT USE”

“Awful experience, charged me £1,400 for two visits, wouldn’t leave until I paid, when I argued about poor service they shouted at me and had the plumber take the part out. Claim to have 24 hour service but after the plumber came to address the cold water not working in my flat, told me I had to speak to management directly about ordering the new part as the plumbers don’t do that. Emailed them on three consecutive days asked them to order the part with no response, then it was bank holiday weekend and it took them 3 more days to get the part. Took no responsibility, sent me the wrong invoice overcharging me on one occasion, send you chaser emails for invoices you’ve already paid, slow service, charge extortionate rates and rude and unapologetic on the phone. Will never use again.”

“Booked for a plumber to come. Had to chase the company a number of times for an update. Eventually was too late for him to come do changed for the next day. The plumber called when he was supposed to arrive to let me know he was on the way but coming from somewhere over 1hr away. Arrived and wanted me to confirm arrival and to say it was ok to start the job. Only when he’s arrived do I find out it’s £132 per hour (£110 + VAT) plus the call out charge which doesn’t get deducted from the labour charge. Then he has to go and get some basic parts which takes him over 45 mins which I have to pay labour time for. This pushes him into the second hour. I’m total £346 to do a basic job. Wouldn’t leave until the invoice was paid. A local plumber who unfortunately was unavailable charged £130 for that job and sorting a leaking toilet including time to get some parts! Will never use south star plumbing again.”

“These are scammer. They have scammed me nearly 1000 pounds today. When you make payments, you will realise the account is for plimbers instead of plumbers. Sadly I realized after I made payment. They were meant to repair a leak but made it worst and left me with no water in addition to that. They have to be reported.”
