Bloody plumbers. Bet they're raking it in at the start of the season :(

I called a plumber on Sunday asking him to fix our boiler ASAP as it broke on Saturday. We've had no hot water since then. Plumber agreed to take a look on Monday.

Monday - no plumber.

Texted plumber on Monday eve and asked for an update. Plumber said he was waiting to hear from a colleague Hmm and would get back to me.

Tuesday - no plumber.

I'm freezing and desperate for a shower and hot water to wash up properly - sick of using the kettle. :( tempted to call plumber now and get really arsey!!

Call someone else and take great pleasure in telling the first joker to sling his hook.

Call a different plumber, infact call several and tell them that the first one to turn up and fix it gets paid!

Call another plumber.
If the original one turns up (sods law says they will) say sorry you've had 2 chances I assumed that meant you didn't need/want the work.
It is the busy season for plumbers as everyones turning heating on properly and finding the problems.
Our plumber is extremely busy at the moment but says that it'll start to die off in the next couple of weeks.
He's fitting our new heating system in Dec (not our choice of timing just what fits with the renovation stages) and says it won't be as manic by then.
