"Very pleased with Dan's work, his professionalism, enthusiasm & hard work. You can tell he takes a real pride in what he does. Would definitely recommend."

"Darley Plumbing is a real family-run business. Dan is reliable, professional and well-qualified and has an extensive knowledge of all matters heating and plumbing. He charges a fair price for his work and his 30 years of experience show in his ability to come up with solutions to any problems he encounters. Dan has already installed a new oil boiler and an unvented hot water cylinder for me and is currently renewing an en-suite bathroom and a downstairs cloakroom. He will next be completely renewing my heating system including all pipework and radiators to my house and garage. Dan is pleasant and down to earth, with a good sense of humour. Tess, who looks after the admin side is extremely efficient and very nice to deal with. She always responds quickly by phone or email to any queries. I can confidently recommend Darley Plumbing - no matter what the job requires, they will sort it out!""

We have had Dan carry out two jobs recently, one being our gas boiler replacement last December 2024 and more recently the replacement of our electric shower unit in the en-suite. Dan's expertise in the recommendation of replacements to meet our budget was very welcomed. Dan is very hard working and ensures a job is well done and that the customer is happy with the completed work. We also found Tess (in the office) very polite, quick to respond to all our communications. Both Dan and Tess make a good team. We highly recommend Darley Plumbing and Heating Ltd., for quality, value and responding to all communications.

Trust is important and you can definitely trust him, he doesn't charge more than the work he has done, he takes pride in his work, and turns up when he says he will. I have emailed them a few times with questions that they are happy to answer, and they respond to them really quickly. His wife helps out from an admin position, and is always really friendly. I have no complaints.

We have used Darley plumbing before and would highly recommend them. Dan is very friendly and gets the job done in a timely fashion with the minimum of disruption. We will almost certainly be using them again for any future plumbing work. Thanks to Dan and Tess.

I am a repeat customer from Dan, he has enormous knowledge, enjoys the challenge of my ancient old house and is always helpful, professional and punctual….nothing is too much trouble, and his warm approachable personality means you are in good hands. He has done additional work at my elderly mothers, where his patience, professionalism and skill at making a frail elderly person still feel in charge of the situation was a masterclass in running a business and understanding the clients needs. I cannot recommend him enough, and he is my first call for any plumbing and heating issues, a master of his trade with a real interest in people….

Before you hire a gas engineer

By law, anyone working on your gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register — ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the licence number at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start.
Never let an unregistered person touch your gas: unsafe gas work risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire and explosion, and is a criminal offence.
For a boiler or appliance install, get the work and price in writing and keep the Gas Safe / Building Regulations certificate they are required to give you.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
