- Day in the life of a plumber
A few jobs and interesting finds in this one as I link a cold water main back in, fix a leaking toilet and change a pump on a heating system
As always, thanks for all the support, it is so greatly appreciated

You are a master Sir. All that work one handed. I’m addicted to this channel.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Tom, you do not have any reason to knock yourself. You are well above any average plumber that I have come across and believe me I have came across lots of them in my time. You come across as a very competent knowledgeable plumber who isn't afraid to tackle anything. For a relatively young guy you show that you have a great knowledge of your trade and capable of tackling a wide and varied range of plumbing tasks. Not just a guy that fixes the leak at a kitchen sink and cannot handle anything else. Folk that judge you based on a 30 minute video have no clue. In my line of work I used to inspect all aspects of plumbing and heating works and your skills, attitude and work ethics is very impressive. Keep up the good work.
Don’t be hard on yourself Tom, you’re a man with a wealth of knowledge… haters will always hate.
Hi Tom, I’ve been around plumbing for 50 years.
Keep making these great videos Tom of “real world” plumbing. Ignore the armchair plumbers. IMO this is the best plumbing channel on RUclips 👍
Not many plumbers can do as many varied jobs as you Tom. I look forward to your videos and love the content. No frills real world plumbing. Bit of costing would be great. Tim
Loving the videos Tom, I’ve been at this game for 25 years and trust me you are a good’n 👍
Tom, you are in the top 1% of heating engineers trust me - keep it up. Appreciate sometimes when the pressure is on and especially when you're working solo a lot of the time it's easy to self-doubt but you're a real asset to the Plumbing and Heating community on RUclips
Great work as always Tom. Inspiring.
Don’t take notice of the trolls mate you seem like a sound fella and really knowledgeable in your job keep doing what your doing from a plumber of 35 years 👍
Dont need to apologize snd beat yourself up.
Greetings from Ireland, Tom - just discovered your channel and have stayed up till silly o'clock last 2 nights going from one of your videos to the next. Worked in industrial electrical/mechanical maintenance and self-employed as an OFTEC registered technician from 2007 to 2012 before my chiller work took over. Much respect to your diligence and standard of work and technical knowledge. I know from experience how apparently simple plumbing jobs can turn pear-shaped in the blink of an eye. Much kudos to you as you tackle the majority of those jobs by yourself - no other person to knock ideas off. Word of advice - mind yourself and don't burn yourself out. Can certainly agree with some of your rants re. poor quality equipment. My bugbears are crappy quarter-turn circulation pump isolating valves that leak the minute you take a screwdriver to them to shut them off, crap quality oil fire valves, there was an issue with Riello RDB fuel pumps in the past; they would seize up when run on kerosene - poor tolerances from the OEM - looked like they were second sourced from China, crap toilet dual flush cisterns, especially those fitted with those awful one/two level flushes and dreadful Torbeck valves, poor quality tap inserts, ultra-thin copper cylinder wall thicknesses, and overly complex heating systems - don't get me started on motorised valves - hate them with a passion, so far, EPH seem to be ok, have seen premature failures on 'respected' brands like Myson, Honeywell, Sunvic, but I refuse to use one in my house - pumps and Systemlink all the way! Skilled people like you are so badly needed today - too many parents wanting their Johns and Marys to 'go to college' - looking down their noses at trades - but ye will win in the end!
Nice content Tom, keep doing what you’re doing mate, those that know……know👍🏻
You’re a brilliant plumber so never think that you are not, I’ve learned alot from you so never feel the need to say sorry mate
Great Fri night viewing
Don't worry about negativity, you're one of my favourite and most knowledgeable engineers on RUclips. You come across as very humble and always willing to help others. Well done matey keep up the good work 👍🏼
Another Good One Tom
in the past ive drained down the system and plumbed the gas into the radiator flow, let the bleed valves out and light them, nice bit of open flame heat (temporary only)
Great video Tom, I have worked with some plumbers and you are very knowledgeable and skilled so keep up the good work
Like that video Tom. Bit of everything in it
