The UK Plumber of the Year 2018 competition (@UKPOTY) has revealed the 18 finalists who have been shortlisted for this year’s competition.
With over double the amount of entries than the previous year, Watersafe, the official judging partner of the competition, has selected three finalists from each of the six chosen regions – North England, South England, Midlands and West, London, Wales and Scotland – who will proceed onto the next stage of the competition.
The public will now vote for who they believe deserves the title in each region, with the six regional finalists going through to the grand final to be crowned Plumber of the Year 2018.
The final 18, in no particular order, are:

Now in its fourth year, the competition called on plumbers nationwide to enter in a bid to find Britain’s finest plumber. The competition is designed to reward and recognise the remarkable talents within the UK’s plumbing industry and asked entrants to demonstrate their plumbing, service and business skills.
The six plumbers with the most regional votes will be invited to an interview session with the judging panel, who will then decide the winner. The UK Plumber of the Year 2018 will win £10,000 worth of prizes.
