Gas hob replaced without issue. Nice clean job done.Verified reviewerJob location: SO329.67 Effective repair of boiler which had stopped working.
Posted 19 January
A central heating boiler suddenly stopped working and therefore needed an urgent repair. After contacting this company the boiler was looked at within 24 hours. Two parts needed replacing which were ordered. Due to bad weather there was a short delay waiting for the parts to arrive but they were then used to replace the damaged components and the boiler worked perfectly again. Overall we were very happy with the prompt and effective repair.Verified reviewerJob location: SO1610 Great service and friendly with it.

Established in 1986.
We are a local, reliable, approachable, hardworking and dedicated family-run business. Sharing 70+ years' experience in the gas, plumbing, heating and very recently the air conditioning industries.
Gas safe registered and soon to be REFCOM registered.
Excited to offering domestic air conditioning for your home, home office or man cave from January, in time for another hot summer.
We undertake all aspects of plumbing, from bathrooms/en-suites/ cloakrooms, and installations of kitchen appliances, to tap installations, and dripping taps.
Central heating; from entire central heating system replacements/ boiler breakdowns to heating controls and pump replacements.
LPG/ Natural gas; from gas range/ cooker installation to boiler and gas fire maintenance and servicing, specializing in Vaillant & Glowworm boilers.
Domestic air conditioning installations only.
We are happy to take on insurance work covering leaks and repairs. We offer a same-day/next-day service for genuine emergencies, where possible.
We also provide free quotations, and no job is too small.
Unfortunately, we don't currently hold the correct accreditations to install, service, and maintain oil boilers or solar hot water/ heating systems.
Nor do we work on underfloor heating or install or maintain wall-hung Wc pans, and we can only do domestic work, so no commercial premises.
