The Pimlico plumbers wiki provides a detailed online resource about the history, people and business of the UK's most respected family-run service maintenance company and service provider. It is run by the Mullins clan, and is located in Lambeth.
Pimlico Plumbers was established by Charlie Mullins, a Pimlico real estate agent. With a small van and some tools, he started it in 1979. He quickly built a strong customer base to grow the business into one of the most prominent plumbing firms in the UK.
In 2021, Charlie sold 90% of his business to Neighborly, a US home services franchise operator. The new owners have ambitious plans for the company, which includes a nationwide expansion to more than 4,500 franchises and a significant increase in the number of engineers.
The headquarters of the company are located in Sail Street, Lambeth. They have a high-tech phone centre, multiple levels office space, a vehicle wash bay, workshop, roof terrace, and a state-ofthe-art gym. The company also has more than 300 engineers on staff and a support team which works in London as well the South East.
Daisy, Daisy's mother, works in a control area manager role. Daisy says that her father has kept Daisy grounded and has given her a business education and work ethic. Although she wants to build upon her success, she still believes in her business independence.
Scott has made it clear that his main goal is to build the company in a way that makes the most of its talent. He wants to ensure every engineer is treated fairly and has the opportunity for advancement in their careers.
He believes strongly in education and training. However, he also strives to make every employee feel valued and respected. He has invested in his staff through apprenticeships and created a happy, safe work environment.
Charlie was married twice, and has been divorced once. After 41 years together, he divorced Lynda, his first spouse. After four years of marriage, he remarried Julie Mullins.
In his spare moments, he has a villa in Marbella. He also has a girlfriend named RaRa. They met in Spain on a beach and were 38 years apart.
They appear to have an intimate relationship, and they seem very open to one other. They have become very good friends and often get together on the beach.
A businessman by trade, but with a natural gift for the gab and marketing, Charlie Mullins has been able to turn his business into a household name. He is best known for using unique plumbing-themed numberplates on his fleet vehicles. This has helped him to earn $15 million.
His business model has been criticised for using independent contractors who only want to take as much work as they can from their customers. They may not be upfront about their pricing and can find work that "must" get done. Customers will then be charged 2-3x more.
FAQ
How much does it set you back to get building permission?
It varies depending on the state and the complexity of your proposal. It will also depend on whether permission is being sought to build or expand your house. It can take several months to complete the application process. Be prepared to wait until it is completed.
What is a service-contract agreement?
A Service Contract Agreement, or SCA, is an agreement between parties to offer services to one another. The SCA details the services being provided, the time and effort they should be used, who should pay for them, when they will start, and how much. The agreement also specifies what happens to the other party if they breach their obligations.
What are the payment terms for the service/contractor I am required to pay?
The payment schedule depends on the type of service being provided. For example, if you hire a contractor to install a new roof, you would typically make payments as soon as the work was completed. However, when you purchase a product from a seller, such as a kitchen range oven, you may only pay once you have received and tested it.
What is a "Standard Contract Form"?
A standard contract template is one way to create contracts. These templates often include all of the necessary elements for a contract, such as the date, time and place.
Standard contract forms can be modified to suit individual clients. Some companies even offer standard contract forms.
These forms might not be appropriate for all situations. These forms can save you time and effort.
You might want to consider using one of these standard contract forms.
Who has to pay for the service?
Your SCA will indicate who is responsible in paying for the service. If the service provider is not paid in full, it may have grounds to claim compensation through the courts.
Do I need a legal representative to sign my service agreement?
No. To sign service agreements, you don't have to be a lawyer. As a precaution, however, it is a good idea to appoint one.
Legal representatives are people who represent another person. If you are an entrepreneur, you may choose to have someone represent you professionally.
This could mean hiring a solicitor or accountant. It could also mean someone being appointed to manage your business interests.
The client usually appoints a legal representative. Sometimes, however a vendor will hire a legal representation.
Legal representation in any case means that you are legally protected.
What documents must I show to get building permission?
Your SCA will not suffice. You must also provide evidence that:
-
Visitors can park in the ample parking lot.
-
These routes can be used for access;
-
All utilities are readily available.
-
All works are compliant with the relevant planning regulations.
