Meet Danny — Your Local Plumber in Crawley

I'm Danny — the person who actually turns up when you call DT Plumbing and Building. Not a call centre, not a franchise, not a subcontractor you've never met — just an experienced plumber who takes pride in doing the job properly, first time. I started this company because I was tired of hearing the same horror stories from customers, and I wanted to build a business I'd be happy to use myself. Based in Crawley, I'm fully insured, VAT registered, and I cover Sussex, Surrey, South London and Kent.

The Story Behind DT Plumbing and Building

DT Plumbing and Building Limited started the way a lot of good trade businesses do — out of frustration with the alternative. Before I set up on my own, I'd heard the same stories over and over from friends, family and customers: a plumber who never turned up when he said he would, a "finished" job that started leaking again within the month, an invoice that had crept up from what was first agreed with no real explanation. None of that sat right with me.

Why I Started DT Plumbing and Building

So when I set up DT Plumbing and Building, the idea was simple: run the company the way I'd want to be treated as a customer. That means I turn up when I say I will, I explain what's actually wrong before I touch anything, and I agree the price with you before any work starts, not after. If a job turns out bigger than expected because of something we find along the way, you hear about it there and then — not as a surprise on the invoice.

I'm hands-on with every job that comes through the door. It's my name on the van and my name on the company, so the standard has to be right every single time — not just when it's convenient.

Fully Insured, Fully Accountable

DT Plumbing and Building is a registered limited company (Company No. 17094744) and VAT registered (VAT No. 515 8660 77), based in Crawley, RH10. That's not just paperwork — it means you're dealing with a proper, accountable business rather than a name in a group chat. Every job is covered by public liability insurance, every job gets a VAT receipt, and every quote is something I'm happy to put my name to.

How I Work

"Do It Once, Do It Right" isn't just a line on the homepage — it's the standard I hold every job to, from a dripping tap to a full bathroom refit. In practice, that means:

Honest pricing, agreed upfront. You'll always know the price before work starts — not a rough guess, not a "from" figure. If something changes once I'm into the job, you hear about it before it costs you anything extra.
One visit, done right. I come prepared with the parts and tools the job needs, so "I'll have to come back another day" isn't something you'll hear from me often. The goal is always to fix it properly the first time.
Your home, respected. Dust sheets go down before I start, and everything gets cleaned up when I'm finished. You shouldn't be able to tell I've been there — apart from the problem being sorted.
Clear paperwork, every time. A VAT receipt for every job, a plain-English explanation of what was wrong and what was done, and photos if it's something your insurer will want to see.
Payment made simple. Card on the spot with Stripe Tap to Pay, or by bank transfer — whichever's easiest for you.

None of this is complicated. It's just what I'd want if I were the one calling a plumber.

One thing I'm upfront about: I'm not Gas Safe registered, and I don't do gas work — no gas appliances, gas pipework or boiler installs. For anything gas-related, I'll point you to a Gas Safe registered engineer (gassaferegister.co.uk) — the right trade for that part of the job. If you ever smell gas, call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 straight away. Everything else — plumbing, water-side heating, bathrooms, kitchens, drains and building work — is exactly what I'm here for.
