Pimlico Plumbers has announced a 15 per cent growth in revenues for October-December 2010.
While the UK economy contracted by 0.5 per cent for the last quarter of 2010, the Central London-based company was able to report sales of £4.7 million - an increase of £595,000.
The Central London-based company completed the quarter with a record £1.5 million sales in December - a record in the 32-year history of the business.
In contrast to a large proportion of the economy affected by the extreme weather conditions in December, Pimlico Plumbers bucked that trend with a £300,000 increase in sales on the same period in 2009 - an increase of 25 per cent.
The increase in sales in December was in part due to a record number of call outs. During the last four weeks of the year the company broke its daily call out record servicing 500 jobs on a single day (up from 440) and in the first week of December completed a record 2,017 jobs (up from 1,930).
The quarter four revenue figures also follow a recent announcement by the company that it is recruiting a further 50 tradespeople and support staff to its 200-strong workforce to aid its ongoing growth.
In the last three years, Pimlico Plumbers has seen an increase of just over 10 per cent in revenues (£13.9 million to £15 million) and 50 per cent increase in employee numbers as the company has expanded its footprint across London and the range of property services it offers.
Pimlico Plumbers serves central and greater London and currently has more than 130 vans, trucks and motorbikes on the streets of the Capital.
With in excess of 150 plumbers, heating engineers, carpenters, builders and locksmiths, the company operates a contact centre in central London.
