Welcome to my website, I am David Ray - a local professional plumber servicing Weston-super-Mare and surrounding areas. I am honest, hard working, reliable, friendly and meticulous - I take pride in my work and value my reputation. I can fix leaks and burst pipes in the Weston super Mare and surrounding areas.
I charge 50 for the first hour then 30 an hour after and I also provide a free estimate service which means I will visit your property to assess the work at no cost. I can also arrange for many other aspects of building work to be carried out for you through my extensive list of reliable, hardworking, qualified tradesmen who I have worked with over many years.
I have been a professional plumber since 1995 - I started as a apprentice after leaving school aged 16. I studied and passed my Plumbing Exams as part of a apprenticeship at the Dublin Institute of Technology and the Fas Training Centre. After completing my plumbing college courses and apprenticeship I worked for a large commercial & industrial engineering company called Lynskey's Engineering Limited for 5 years.

I've used Dave a number of times now for work on our renovation. He is reliable, very reasonably priced and does a fantastic job. He always cleans up after himself and keeps me updated throughout the process so I know what is going on if he needs to buy extra parts etc. Highly recommended! Dave Ray was recommend to us by another local tradesmen.
The majority of outside taps are installed to provide water for washing vehicles, patios, watering plants, vegetables and mud off your wellies. You can have both hot and cold outside water taps, I offer a installation and removal plumbing service to suit your requirements. I can offer advice on placement and fittings should you require it.

Here's some things we take for granted but can sadly be lacking in tradesmen:
- Gives you a date when he will visit to complete the work (and turns up!) ... not chasing people constantly to see when they are free
- Turns up on time
- Takes shoes off when walking on carpet (every time!)
- Works in a tidy manner and leaves the place as if it was his own home.
Dave does all of these and more! :-)
Dave completed a new shower mixer tap installation, fixed a toilet leak & installed fittings for a dishwasher. All done to a high standard.
The "piece de resistance" was locating an occasional stink

We moved house shortly before the COVID-19 outbreak and needed the services of a plumber to completely re-plumb the heating (including radiator replacement throughout the house.) Unlike other individuals we contacted, Dave was completely upfront about timescales and difficulties surrounding the outbreak. He gave us a realistic deadline and price, and was very responsive with communication.
Dave turned up when he agreed to and was very efficient, completing the work to the highest standard.
As the house needs a lot doing to it we will be working with Dave on several other projects with no hesitation

Our shower pump stopped working so we needed a replacement fitted. Dave replied quickly to our enquiry and came round soon after to see the current set up.
Once a date was arranged he came over and after a quick stop for additional fittings as some of the entry / exit points were slightly different, the job was complete.
Very reliable, tidy and honest. We will definitely use Dave again for any of our plumbing requirements.

We needed 2 very old & worn garden taps replacing. Dave was very responsive in providing a quote and managed to fit us in much quicker than we were expecting. He turned up when he said he would, was very polite & professional in all aspects of his work and carried out excellent quality work that exceeded our expectations. Will certainly be using Dave for any future plumbing jobs we have. Many thanks Dave

Emailed Dave for a quote, he came out within a few days. Booked in to do the work, replacing some radiators and installing a toilet and sink. He turned up when he said he would, which seems a rarity these days for tradesmen. Really lovely guy, gets his head down and cracks on with the job at hand. Would highly recommend to anyone. Have already passed his details on to friends/family who are looking for a plumber and we will definitely be in contact as/when we need a plumber again :)
