The takeover means Fantastic Services, which has over 300 UK franchisees, will be able to offer plumbing and heating services to its customers for the first time.
Fantastic Services co-founder Rune Sovndahl (pictured) says he’s got rival outfit Pimlico Plumbers - London’s largest independent plumbing company - in his sights as he targets plumbing sales worth £40 million a year.
Rune says: “Demand for good, reliable plumbers has never been higher.
“We’re delighted to add My Plumber to our growing portfolio and to be able to offer our customers plumbing services for the first time.
“In My Plumber, we have purchased the best rated plumbing company in London.
“And we want to build on that existing feel good factor when it comes to customer satisfaction, using our Fantastic Services systems to offer an excellent, professional experience at a good price.
Fantastic Services, which processed customer orders worth £32.5 million in 2018, specialises in cleaning, gardening, landscaping, waste removal and pest control alongside handyman services.
All existing My Plumber staff, comprising an experienced team of Gas Safe accredited technicians, electricians and handymen, plus an administration and estimating team, will be retained.
Established in 2005, My Plumber has expertise in general plumbing repairs and installations, as well as heating and gas services.
It also operates electrical services under the My Electrician name, as well as a handyman operation called My Handyman.
My Plumber consistently achieves high ratings on the public feedback website Checkatrade and has won several customer service awards.
