    First class plumber/ gas fitter.

    Posted 19 July

    Wonderful service from the initial phone call to the end of installation. He was very helpful, explained how everything worked with the new boiler and the setup of controls on my phone. He arrived as arranged, polite, friendly and tidied up after the job was completed. We are very happy, and would not hesitate in recommending this plumber/gas fitter.

    Boiler Service

    Posted 04 July

    First boiler service after R M Blake fitted a Worcester Bosch boiler for me a year ago. The boiler has been fantastic,no issues at all since being fitted. Very economic and reliable.

    Relocation and installation of a new boiler.

    Posted 18 June

    I recently had an old boiler replaced and relocated from the attic to the ground floor by Mike Blake. From our initial meeting to assess the work required , I found Mike to be very professional, knowledgeable and approachable. He was able to advise me on the best boiler and thermostatic control to meet my needs.. I quickly received a detailed quotation , which I felt was fairly priced The work was subsequently carried out to time and budget, with all work carried out in one day.Mike proved himself to be diligent, efficient and organised I shall certainly be using him for future plumbing work.

    Boiler Service

    Posted 11 June

    Mike's communication was great from start to finish. He turned up on time and completed the service quickly and sent me the paperwork while he was still at my house. Recommended.

    Fitted replacement combi boiler

    Posted 10 June

    Mike was doing a job for a relative and out of the blue I asked if he could quote to replace my ageing combi boiler - he called up later that afternoon and although short notice, Mike supplied a favourable quote and we set up an appointment for the work. Communications with Mike were excellent and the work carried out was to a very high professional standard and without an issues. Mike also took time to explain my new system and made sure I understood how it worked. Highly recommended

    Replacement Boiler

    Posted 30 May

    From the initial quote, to completion of the boiler installation it was a pleasure dealing with Mike throughout. As well as a new boiler I also had Mike to replace 2 radiators. Leaking fittings found in my system were completed with a minimum of fuss. It was even a pleasure to pay Mike, for a job very well done.
