FOUR PLUMBERS, NO SUBCONTRACTORS<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The plumber who quotes is the one who turns up.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Halbrook has stayed at four plumbers for most of its nineteen years, all directly employed rather than brought in as and when. That is a deliberate ceiling: bring in subcontractors to cover a busy week and the person who arrives at the door stops being someone the firm actually knows.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It means a named plumber, not a rota of whoever is free. It also means the thirty-minute call ahead of arrival actually tells you something, because the office knows exactly who is in the van and where it has come from.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
