    Nest troubleshoot and Hive installation

    Posted 14 June

    Nigel helped trouble shoot an issue with our Nest heating system and in the end installed a Hive system. Communication was great throughout and Nigel is just a very nice bloke. Happy to use again.

    Central heating fault

    Posted 14 April

    It was very easy to get in touch with Nigel and book the job. He arrived on time and quickly diagnosed an issue with my central heating, finding the fault within five minutes. He fixed a blocked pipe, and the heating is now working perfectly. He also took care of another job while he was here, which was really helpful. I would definitely recommend him.

    Very good and professional service

    Posted 07 April

    Amazing and professional work. There was a small leak the next day, which the person returned to fix within the hour of being called without any additional charges, could not advise enough!

    Fantastic service from NR Bates on a thorough job replacing a Boiler, Radiators, TRV's and running brand new pipework for a radiator location. Very knowledgeable and experienced and felt very confident in going with NR Bates. Work was completed quickly and on schedule and the pricing was very fair. Extremely pleased and satisfied.

Hello, my name is Nigel and I’ve been working in the plumbing industry for 30 years. I’ve gained a wide range of experience, from building site work to private boilers and bathrooms. Over the last year I’ve taken a new direction and started my own company; N R Bates Plumbing and Heating!


Small jobs or large ones are equally welcome. I take pride in my work and enjoy providing a quality service to my customers, appreciating the importance of reliability and tidiness.


I am fully insured and Gas Safe registered. Please ask me for a free estimate* if you need any of the following (or if you have an interesting job not listed!) and I would be happy to meet you.

  • Central heating
  • Boiler Changes
  • Bathroom Installations/refit
  • Landlord Certificates
  • Gas Hob Installation
  • Underfloor Heating
  • Kitchen Sinks and Taps

* Please note that although I will visit you to give a free estimate for future works you may require, this is NOT the same as when you call me out to fix/diagnose an immediate problem. In such cases there will be a charge for my time on site.

Also, sometimes customers in the process of purchasing property will ask me to visit the property, inspect the central heating system and write a report. I am happy to do this, but this is a chargeable service which is not covered by the free quote offer.
