Become our next winner! Entries are now open for The Plumber Awards 2027, with plumbers and apprentices from across the UK invited to showcase their skills and compete for some of the industry’s most prestigious accolades.
The Plumber Awards sits alongside the long-running Heating Installer Awards as part of the wider Installer Awards programme, celebrating excellence, innovation, technical expertise and customer service across the plumbing and heating sector.
Previous winners of the regional, category and national titles have spoken about the unrivalled impact of the win, with many seeing a huge boost in business. Whether it’s brought invitations to quote for more prestigious jobs, removed any worry about the pipeline of work, or simply just being able to join a community made just for installers, the awards have a true and lasting impact on those who put themselves forward.
What’s new for 2027
Now entering its second year following a successful launch in 2026, The Plumber Awards continues to recognise the very best plumbing professionals in the country. This year’s awards include a joint with the Heating Installer Awards, Apprentice of the Year category, shining a spotlight on the next generation of talent entering the plumbing and heating industries. Together, the awards provide a platform to recognise the talented individuals helping to raise standards across the plumbing and heating industries.
Entrants compete first at a regional level, with winners going on to battle it out for the national title of Plumber of the Year.
Laura Mashiter, founder of the Installer Awards, said: “For 11 years, the Installer Awards has celebrated the exceptional talent that exists throughout the UK’s plumbing and heating sectors. Every year we are inspired by the quality of entries we receive and the incredible stories behind them. Whether it’s an outstanding plumbing solution, a complex installation or an apprentice making their mark on the industry, the awards are about recognising those individuals who consistently go above and beyond.
“We encourage plumbers from across the UK to put themselves forward. Many previous finalists and winners almost didn’t enter because they didn’t think their work was special enough, but the awards have helped them raise their profile, build new industry relationships and gain the recognition they deserve.”
