8.33 Started as a boiler service, ended up a much bigger job.
Posted 06 November
SCAF Plumbing and Heating Limited, solved the problem with an old oil boiler. They started the job as a service call and we ended the job with a new boiler installed. They were polite and informative and completed the work in a very quick timeline. They were tidy and courteous at all times. I would recommend them.Verified reviewerJob location: CO10 - DDavid F

Boiler Service carried out, Very Happy with Silv, very knowledgeable and spotted 2 issues with my boiler which needed looking at under its warranty. Called Bosch and they will be attending in 7 days to fix the issues with the Boiler. Will be using SCAF Plumbing & Heating again in the future for all my Plumbing needs. Thanks again Silv and well recommended to all.Verified reviewerJob location: CO14Response from SCAF PLUMBING & HEATING LIMITED
