How we picked emergency plumbers in Croydon

Customer feedback is weighed by volume, so a strong showing from a handful of customers counts for less. Beyond that, the list favours firms that state their own out-of-hours work, publish a licence number, and are based in Croydon. Each business's own description of emergency and drain jobs also counts.
