    Excellent worker

    Posted 19 October

    Dalco Gas with David was a very good experience by a knowledgeable and capable plumber who worked hard with little or no breaks installing boiler, new pipes and valves and ventilation flue to better standard than existed before. Gas Safe registered and a hard worker. Highly recommend.

    Emergency toilet leak

    Posted 16 October

    Pipe broke in toilet & couldn't stop the water flow. David was the 3rd call I made to find a plummer & 1st to answer the phone ! (it was a a Sunday morning). Came out within an hour & was able to turn off the water (I couldn't get the stopcock to move). Managed to make a temporary repair so I could use the loo & agreed to return in the week to complete a more permanent fix. Fixed leak in boiler too. Good as his word, came back a few days later with new fittings for my loo & now back in full working order! Very happy with the service provided & recommend.

    Gas underfloor heating

    Posted 24 September

    David was extremely professional, thorough and hardworking throughout. We were having trouble with our gas underfloor heating. David’s work was meticulous and clearly explained at each step. He offered very sound and helpful advice. His pricing was very fair. He is an experienced, reliable tradesperson, and I would highly recommend!

    Took on a job no one wanted, and saved my sanity.

    Posted 22 September

    David absolutely saved my sanity after an underfloor heating company botched putting down my underfloor heating. I contacted 5 plumbers, 3 refused to even attempt to connect the underfloor heating to the boiler, one quoted a sum so high they clearly didn’t want the work either. David took a very realistic and measured approach. He absolutely worked his socks off for days on end and took the time to talk me through exactly what he was doing and why. He was happy to speak to the site manager (new build) and any other trades to coordinate work being carried out. Highly recommend.

    Quality, fairly priced

    Posted 16 September

    Trusted and respected engineer. Dave has done jobs for me previously and the work is always to a very high standard and fairly priced. He recently sourced, and fitted new radiators in my home, in different rooms. The work is very thorough and checked/tested! Would highly recommend Dave to anyone

    Dave from Dalco did good job on my radiators

    Posted 11 September

    Dave from Dalco has been doing a lot of work in my old terraced house for the past two years. A couple weekend ago he replaced five old radiators in rooms and added a new one in the kitchen. One of the radiators is very nice looking vertical radiator that I asked for to suit my dining room decor. I am very happy with my new radiators. Dave did a very good job installing them. He also made sure each had suitable heat output for the room cubature. Along with radiators, he fixed some small leaks in my boiler and stack pipe. I can recommend Dave as a good plumbing specialist.
