Coverage

New searches are still finding plumbing products, so the catalogue is not exhaustive. They increasingly fit buyer situations we have already identified, which is why we think the structure of this market is now stable enough to make useful comparisons.

Research rounds

  1. Round 1 identified 12 canonical candidates.
  2. Round 2 added seven useful products.
  3. Round 3 added seven primary-verified UK-relevant products and exposed clearer subsegments.
  4. Round 4 still found useful omissions — WrkGenie, Tradehand and GasCert — but all fit the existing segment model.
