Rob was 100% reliable and communicated really well. He turned up at the house quickly and kept in touch when having to order in the parts, letting me know when they'd been delivered and consequently carried out the work very quickly after receiving them. Have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him and will certainly call him again should I need to in the future.Verified reviewerJob location: PO410 Automatic ignition on gas cooker

I telephoned Rob first thing on Monday morning and he came round within an hour - he did an excellent job on the repair at a very reasonable price - nothing was too much trouble. He is also a very nice man and I would wholeheartedly recommend Rob.Verified reviewerJob location: PO1410 Replacement of thermocouple in main oven of Double Fitted Oven.

I am Gas Safe Registered, fully insured, and manufacturer trained. Not only will I not charge a call out fee, but if I am unable to repair your oven I won't charge you at all!
I carry a large stock of spare parts which enables me to complete the job on the first visit in most cases. I am on call most days of the year, including Sundays and will offer a free estimate with no hidden charges - I'll beat any genuine quote from anyone else.
I provide a professional and friendly service with hundreds of satisfied customers to date.
