They were the first to respond and provided a clear competitive quotation and timescale. They kept me informed of the timing for the work. They arrived within the agreed time and carried out the work professionally, and completed it efficiently. Everything was left clean and tidy. They explained the work and answered my questions. Heatwave will be my first choice in the future." > Source: Ian G (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "Stuart was excellent, kept me informed of progress and his work was excellent." > Source: Steve H (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "On boxing day we had noticed our heating was playing up, not an ideal time of the year for this to happen, particuarly when I have my 1 year old at home. So the following day i requested a service for it, then half an hour later it went completely. We contacted 12 people, british gas said over £200 and can arrive on the Tuesday, another company said over £300 for Tuesday, another said £120 callout fee that day. The others didnt even respond or they declined. Stuart from Heatwave called me after 30 minutes, he was more than fair and came out to us an hour later and fixed/serviced our boiler." > Source: Robbie B (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Plumber, Gas Engineer ## Services they list _Listed on public sources or the business's own website; check directly that they cover your job before you book:_ - Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing - Gas Boiler Installation - Gas Boiler Servicing / Repair - Gas Central Heating Installation - Gas Central Heating Servicing / Repair - Gas Cooker Installation - Gas Safety Checks - CP12 - General Plumbing - Pipe Fitter - Plumbing Repairs - Power Flushing - Radiator Installation ## Areas covered _Towns and areas this trader lists serving.

Where we hold a date, the check shows it. ## Before you hire a plumber _What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_ - 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. - For the water-regulations side of plumbing, a WaterSafe-approved plumber is vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. You can check yours or find one free at watersafe.org.uk. - Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else. ## Contact - Phone: 07428 428350 --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/heatwave-plumbing Real public evidence only: every figure traces to its named source.
