He’s then used his professional knowledge and experience in providing home renovation solutions.

He ran a successful plumbing business on the south coast of England for over a decade. He relocated to France and established a successful and independent plumbing business, installing kitchens and bathrooms and bespoke tiling solutions.

Pete Birkenshaw

I am Pete Birkenshaw, the Head of Security for JB Plumbing and Renovation. I was born and bred in Paris, and am a pedigree Parson Russell Terrier. When I was young, I decided to relocate to Deux-Sevres and became Jay’s security director. 

Since then, I attend and secure every location Jay works at. I base myself in the van – better known as my mobile kennel. I am very much a people dog and love meeting new people. However, be warned, poke your fingers through the open window, I might have a tasty nibble!

Away from work, I love and enjoy long bike rides with Jay, gentle ear rubs and can never say no to a bit of tasty chicken.
