Juliet, you have my sympathy. I have a boiler (2yrs) old that needs a service as part of its warrantee. The plumber who installed it isn't interested and several others who have been contacted have not shown up. You might try Alan Upton of Plumpton Green ?

I have used four lewes plumbers over the years. On the whole, they disappear halfway through a job without notification (I wouldn't mind if they said they were out on an emergency), if they are busy they don't return calls, and won't disclose hourly rates unless repeated requests are made. They ask if you are down from London in a rather pointed way (no - Haywards Heath). One of them has a rather interesting WhatsApp profie photo.
Go for the village plumbers.

Matt Jukes of Jukes Plumbing - 07880 817408 based in Newhaven
He fitted radiators in my flat, then a new bathroom a few years later. Would highly recommend

Have you tried ed the plumber or Derek wills ? Both advertise in Viva Lewes, I think. Derek does our boiler every year and is very good. I know Ed does bathroom plumbing
