Arek was very helpful and efficient in doing a plumbing job for me recently. I would highly recommend him.
Padraig O'D, Sligo - ★★★★★
We have hired Arek over the last number of years to do various repairs in our cafe. His work is completed to a good standard, and he leaves the place spotless afterwards. We have always found him to be punctual, efficient, and lovely to deal with.

You ring or send the form, Arek talks it through with you, and you know the price before anything starts.
One number, one plumber. 085 708 8979 rings Arek's own phone.
Sligo town
Sligo town's homes, from the 2022 census
What the census says about the houses Arek works in. It's why so many calls are about oil boilers, cylinders and older pipework.
Sligo town had 20,608 people at the 2022 census. 19% of households lived in a flat or apartment and 44% rented. Uisce Éireann says builders and plumbers often used lead for plumbing up to and including the 1970s, so a house built before 1970 with its original pipes may still have lead (Uisce Éireann). That's 2,179 homes in Sligo town alone.
Figures from the CSO's 2022 census.
