Looking to cast a spotlight on the UK’s talented plumbing professionals, the new Plumber Awards have been launched by the organisers of the Heating Installer Awards and have already attracted the backing of two big industry supporters.
Leading industry body, the CIPHE, will be a key partner in the moderation of the judging progress, while Polypipe Building Products has also pledged its support as an awards sponsor in this inaugural year.
The awards are searching for the best-of-the-best: the plumbers who push themselves day after day to find the best solutions for their customers. Entrants will be asked to respond to a wide range of questions, ranging from their opinions of customer care through to examples of domestic jobs undertaken that show why they should win.
Tim Sainty, membership director at the CIPHE, comments: “We will always consider backing initiatives that are clearly designed to support plumbers and lead the sector forward, and The Plumber Awards is the perfect example. These awards are run by a team that’s visibly passionate about the sector and truly appreciates the challenges these professionals face on a daily basis.”
Jason Nightingale, head of marketing at Polypipe Building Products, adds: “Every day, we see plumbers pushing to break boundaries and apply new innovations to benefit homeowners. There are some brilliant projects happening out there – and it will be terrific to see this reflected in The Plumber Award entries.
“Now more than ever, it is crucial to recognise plumbers who undertake incredibly technical work day-in, day-out to keep our homes working as they should, while genuinely keeping their customer front of mind. It is important for everyone to get behind The Plumber Awards and show their support for all the hard-working people in this industry, celebrating the best in the plumbing world.”
Entries open on 1st September 2025, but anyone interested can register their support here and a member of the awards’ administration team will be in contact.
