Highlights

"B&R Heating have just completed major works at our house. New boiler, new unvented cylinder, new pipework for new radiators and old tanks and cylinder removed from the loft and airing cupboard. B&R Heating were with us for a full week. Gary and Sam, both worked very hard for the time they were with us and were willing to answer my many questions raised with full and complete explanations. At times I could see the job was difficult and working in confined spaces wasn't easy for them but never once did I hear any complaint. They carried out the job very efficiently, respectfully and professionally and cleaned up at the end of every day, leaving the house as they found it. Richard came and introduced his crew on the first morning and then came at the end of the job to check everything and to commission the system. He explained the system to us to ensure we were happy and that we felt confident using it. Before the job started both Richard and Natalie, in the office, answered many questions that I put to them in preparation of the job starting, again with great patience. My husband and I expect very high standards of any work carried out in the house. B&R met and exceeded those standards and obviously have the same high standards themselves as neither my husband nor myself could fault them in anyway. We would highly recommend B&R Heating Ltd. and would, in the future, contact them to carry out any further works. G&S Read - South Hams"

B & R Heating responded very quickly and sorted our heating pump problem during the winter cold spell, from which we realised this was a company to trust, no up-selling for parts of the system that did not need replacing, and so they have now been with us for the last two days replacing our boiler and all radiators etc. Our system was over 25 years old, I could not believe the colour of the water drained out, wow! The whole process was excellent, the guys were brilliant, nothing was too much of a problem for them explaining everything as they went along. All our carpets were protected, all rubbish taken away, and a beautiful system fitted. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company. Thanks once again to B & R Heating for a great job.

B&R Heating are an excellent company. Richard and Gary, the engineers who fitted our new external oil boiler and radiators, were highly skilled and professional. They were also very friendly, respectful and considerate and were a pleasure to have working at our house. The customer service provided by Natalie was second to none. We felt like VIP customers. B&R Heating always serviced our old boiler and will definitely continue to service our new one. We would not trust any other company with such an important job. We always have complete peace of mind, knowing that our boiler is safe and is functioning perfectly. Many other companies could learn a lot from B&R Heating.

We choose B&R Heating because of the recommendations on the Which Trusted Traders web page. The installation was in my 91 year old mothers house. My brother is going to have a new boiler fitted by B&R, and I may do the same in the near future. B&R Heating lived up to the recommendation. Friendly, on time, and the price was exactly as I expected. Very pleased.

Because of the previous endorsements for B & R Heating, I asked for an estimate to replace my 91 year old Mother's 'Ferroli' combi boiler with a new 'Worcester' one. I rang for someone to come out to look at the installation requirements, also to give us a price for the job, The price quoted was exactly what I expected. Within seven days, B & R Heating turned up promptly on the agreed day, and time, and installed the new boiler in a professional manner, with good manners, politeness, and cleaned up as they went. I have no hesitation in joining others in recommending B & R Heating. So much so that my Brother is planning to have a new boiler installed in the near future, and I will do the same at a later date.

Quick response and survey. Had several surveys conducted and Richards was the most professional and informative. He conducted a true calibrated water flow test and accurately recommended the best boiler (you can only get out what comes in). Highly professionally fitted in one day and left very clean and tidy/functioning well. The company also fitted an additional radiator at short notice and we were more than pleased with all of the work. We did have a problem after one day and the team promptly came out and identified our waste pipe was blocked a distance away from the boiler and the combi condenser drain off water had backed up, this was quickly fixed and all is well. This could not have been foreseen during installation and was fixed quickly and expertly. A great experience will use to service and again for other plumbing work. A week later running like a dream.

We had a leak with the boiler which was fixed really promptly. But as with heating systems something else when wrong after the engineer left. Got in contact the next day and by that evening everything was fixed and working better than ever. The staff in this company and genuine and care. Thank you for a great service and long may it continue.

Excellent service from start to finish. Richard and his team are highly professional and put the customer first. They installed a new Worcester Bosch boiler and a smart heating control system for us. All the work was done to a very high quality. Great communication. B&R Heating are highly recommended.

This is the second combi boiler installation by B & R Heating Ltd that I have experience of. The first was at my mothers house, and the second was at my house. On both occasions the price for the installations was fair, and work carried out to a professional standard. I have no hesitation in recommending B & R Heating Ltd, and I know that my brother will in time have a new boiler fitted by them.

Smart checks

Before you hire a plumber

Agree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top — in writing — before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced — get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade — not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
