Entries for the first ever Plumber Awards close soon (31.01.26), and with the deadline fast approaching, organisers are reminding plumbers to get their submissions in before it’s too late.
The completely free-to-enter awards celebrate the best plumbers in the UK and not only give tradespeople the chance to be recognised for their amazing work, but also to win fantastic prizes from sponsors including CT1, Kingsbridge, Polypipe Building Products, Powered Now, the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering and Refresh.
There are 11 regional awards up for grabs, with the winner from each region going through to the final stage of the competition to be in with the chance of being crowned the national winner.
Plumbers are being encouraged to enter to showcase their work and make the most of the business, media, and brand awareness opportunities that come with winning an award such as this.
The winners will be determined through a combination of judges' scores, a public vote, and then a technical challenge to decide the national winner. The judging panel is made up of industry experts, professional bodies, and fellow plumbers including key people from the CIPHE and Watersafe, as well as award-winning plumbers.
Regional winners will be announced in March 2026 and the national winner will be crowned on stage at InstallerSHOW 2026, held at the NEC in Birmingham in June 2026.
Do you think you have what it takes to be named the best plumber in the region – and even in the UK? Apply here before it’s too late.
The awards are for plumbers working on domestic projects only, and to be eligible, they must be 18 years old or over and hold an NVQ 2 or 3 in England, Wales and NI or an SNVQ3 only in Scotland as a minimum.
