Highlights
"Richard sent Hayden out today to sort out our lack of hot water and central heating. He was extremely pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable, and quickly tracked down cause (a blocked pipe). He sorted the problem and then did a thorough check that everything was working well, before leaving. The cost of the job was very reasonable. We would not hesitate to recommend this company to others, and will definitely be using them for any future work."
"I have had a new bathroom fitted in September 2025 by Unique Plumbing and Heating of Herne Bay Kent. I'm very impressed with the quality of the fixtures and overall finish. In October 2025 I had Richard & his team back for a relocation and installation of a new combi boiler. At all times I was kept informed of what was to happen & when. The team arrived on time. They kept mess & disruption to a minimum. They were friendly but professional and nothing was too much trouble. Everything was reasonably priced & and an excellent job was done. Thank you, Richard, Dan, Dom & Haydn."

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.
