Highlights
"I woke to discover my boiler was not working. I contacted Harvey in a panic and he was able to come round promptly and after an initial attempt to repair the boiler, it became clear that this would not be cost effective was agreed that a new boiler was what we needed. The arrangements to install the new boiler was equally quick and easy. The work was carried out as promised and very efficiently. I've used Harvey and team for many years to help with heating and plumbing issues and have always found them friendly and to provide a great service. Highly recommended."
"Great job on new boiler. Very helpful giving us instructions. Very tidy."
"Discussed work to be done precisely. Arrived as planned. Kept informed of progress. Despite major amount of work undertaken kept our inconvenience to a minimum. Cleared up and left everything tidy. Amazing quality of work."

Check the WaterSafe registerSmart 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.
