About Mark Ellis Plumbing

Built on reliability,
finished with care

Mark Ellis Plumbing is a sole-trader plumbing and heating business based in Islington, North London. After 15 years working for larger contractors, Mark went independent in 2018 — bringing the same standard of work but with the personal service only a sole trader can offer.

Whether it's a dripping tap, a new boiler, or a full bathroom strip-out and rebuild, Mark handles the job himself from start to finish. No subcontractors, no surprises — just straightforward, quality plumbing at a fair price.
