A local plumber for Honiton
I'm David, the owner of Absolute Plumbing & Heating. I've been plumbing in and around Exeter since 2010 and I live in Stoke Canon, about 30 minutes from Honiton. When you ring, you speak to me, and I'm the one who turns up.
Honiton's long Georgian high street has a lot of flats above shops and older houses behind, and the villages around it are mostly off the gas grid. I'm about half an hour away, so I'm honest about that: fine for booked work, servicing and heating jobs, and same-day for emergencies when my diary allows. Oil boiler services in Honiton have their own page.

While you wait: turn the water off at the stopcock, switch off the electrics if water is anywhere near them, and put a bucket under the drip. Then ring 07766 501664.

Honiton plumbing FAQs
How quickly can you get to Honiton?
During working hours, Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm, usually the same day. I'm based in Stoke Canon, about 30 minutes from Honiton. Ring 07766 501664 and I'll give you an honest arrival time rather than a promise I can't keep.
What do you charge for a callout in Honiton?
£110 for an emergency callout, which includes travel, finding the fault and the first hour of work. After that it's £75 to £85 an hour. Booked, non-urgent jobs are quoted up front, and parts are always priced before they're fitted.
Are you Gas Safe registered?
Yes. I'm Gas Safe registered for gas boilers, central heating, hobs and fires, and OFTEC trained for oil boilers, which matters for the villages around here that are off the gas grid. Registration numbers are available on request and I'll show my ID card at the door.
Do you do evenings and weekends?
My hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. Outside those I can sometimes help by arrangement, so it's always worth a call. If I can't, I'll say so straight away.
