Highlights
"Steve came round to do a boiler exchange after our 1980's boiler finally packed up. He did a fantastic job replacing it, his work was very tidy and he was excellent at troubleshooting the initial issue with the existing plumbing in my house that stopped the boiler from functioning correctly to start with. I wouldn't hesitate to call Steve again for any further work, a first class service from a first class man."
"Right from the start, Steve explained clearly and carefully the nature of our leak, its causes and options to solve the problem. Having opted for a boiler exchange, when on site Steve and the team did a great job, performing an excellent installation, kept the work area clean, neat and tidy and were able to ensure we had heating & hot water overnight until the job was finished the next day. One of the best pieces of work of any trade we’ve ever used."
"Danny was excellent would recommended for any plumbing job"

Smart checks
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.
