Here's the difference explained in terms of plumbers


The plumber.

Comes to you house. Identifies the fault with your boiler, suggests a repair. Fixes the fault, services the system, charges £350 and leaves. You are happy in a warm home.


The plumbing "consultant"

Arrives in a sharp suit. Has 3 hour meeting with you discussing synergies with your lighting, how your carpets could generate warmer feet if upgraded and how the industry is moving towards thinner pipes.

Creates a detailed report on the future of condensing boilers and presents this to your family. Thanks you all and leaves at 7.00pm after handing you a bill for £2500.

You sit, tired and cold with your broken boiler wondering how you are going to pay for Christmas.

Me probably. And add around another 6,634,033,792 undead (not including the not yet born).

That just about sums up the 'style-over-substance' paradigm prevalent in the last 10 years.
