My father used to tell me that to be successful in Cornwall as a tradesman, you only need to do one thing. Turn up.
Tonkin does this and as an added bonus seems to know a lot about plumbing! Highly recommend. Many thanks to his wife Charmaine for always communicating.
Services: Repair water heater, Repair pipe

David was exceptionally well organised, tidy and competent.
The full renovation of our shower room was completed on time, within budget and the finish was excellent. I always worry that having trades in the house will be disruptive and the end result won’t meet high expectations, but I can say with confidence that David’s workmanship was exemplary. When some issues arose, David was round immediately to fix. I will not hesitate to use David again for the next project.

David did a great job. He was reliable and responsive. We had to find someone to trust to refit our bathroom as we could not be on site. David took care of all aspects including the tiling and flooring. We were relly pleased with the work and how easy David was to deal with.

David was very professional, punctual and a good bloke to deal with. From the first contact with his wife Charmaine I was happy that we would be well looked after. We love our new low level shower installation. Thank you. G & K.

David fitted a new shower room and replaced an existing bathroom at our house. The work he has done has been first class. He is extremely efficient, reliable and tidy, and we would recommend him to anyone who needs a plumber.

David installed a new gas boiler, replaced radiators and installed a new gas feed back to a new meter cupboard / gas main.
The work was of a high standard, David worked in a COVID-secure way and the installation scope meant that the oil boiler was decommissioned in the morning and the new gas boiler was up and running in the evening, leaving minimum disruption.
I would not hesitate to recommend David Tonkin Plumbing.
