Highlights

"Great experience from start to finish. I was given a fixed price for the job, no messing around - completely transparent. Communication was great, very friendly and polite, arrived when he said he would and finished the job in good time. I literally know nothing about this kind of work so didn't realise I needed another part, this wasn't a problem, he went above and beyond and made sure everything was complete and safe. I would 100% recommend and I personally will not call anyone else if I need anything doing again."

"Contact via text msg so I got instant notifications. Txtd day before install & 30mins before arrival to check time still ok. Very pleasant sociable guy. Told me good & bad points about the new appliance bought & process of what he’d be doing before removing the old hob to check ok to proceed. Was happy to hold a conversation while doing the work. Did full safety check after install explaining why & how equipment would detect a leak. Paid by bank transfer with an instant invoice received via txt. Offered to dispose of old hob too. A top, hassle free service. 100% recommend."

They were that good, I won’t go anywhere else now. We live in the Wirral and there’s plenty of plumbers here, so it says a lot that we’d have Craig and his team here before anyone else.

The person that up was very friendly, he put us at ease straight away. He was very helpful in showing us what was wrong with our boiler and what we needed to do in the future. He quickly repaired our boiler and got it running as it should. He was very clean, very professional and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this company to nobody who requires boiler service or repairs.

Highly recommend this company!! My mums house had a really odd set up, with a separate water boiler downstairs to heat the water in the downstairs bathroom. After it broke, Craig drove 2 hours to look at the issue and suggested 3 options. He recommended the most cost efficient for mum. After an initial issue with the original plan, Craig was able to come up with an alternative meaning mum has now got hot water again. Craig was so lovely to work with, did the work quickly and at the weekend, and was open and honest. I can really recommend him to anyone

Great, professional and friendly service. From the original visit to discuss the work and provide a quote, Craig was friendly and professional, arriving on time and keeping me informed when he was on his way. On the day of the installation, I was notified of their ETA. Craig and Harry worked efficiently and completed the job to a very high standard. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

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.
