    Excellent Service from South City Heating - Reliable and Professional Heating Engineer

    Posted 31 October 2025

    Earl from South City Heating installed our new Vaillant boiler last year, and we’ve just had the first annual service. He’s reliable, professional, and genuinely takes pride in his work. Whether it’s a new boiler, radiators, or general heating support, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Earl.

    Great installation

    Posted 24 October 2025

    Earl is a really good guy. Came to do a new boiler installation. He turned up on time. Put in more than a full days work to make sure everything was installed & working well. Nothing is too much for him.

    Great Service well priced

    Posted 17 October 2025

    Highly recommend Earl. He is professional, polite and true to his word. He has serviced our boiler and gas fire for years and recently fitted a water softener to the boiler after flushing the system We were recommended to Earl by others and were pleasantly surprised to learn he is very competitively priced too

    Gas boiler replacement

    Posted 16 April 2025

    I've used South City Heating over the past few years for my annual gas boiler service and they've been very good. My boiler broke down recently and I called them and had a visit later the same day. We agreed it was time to replace the boiler and they organised the delivery of the new unit and fitted it within a couple of days. Neat and tidy job by Earl and all working perfectly. As ever, a reliable and professional service from South City Heating.

    Boiler service

    Posted 25 November 2024

    I was looking for a boiler engineer that I could trust and a friend recommended Earl from South City Heating to me. I called and he came that very same day. I told him my concerns of smelling gas and he subsequently did all necessary checks and completed a boiler service. Earl was thorough and took the time to explain everything to me and put my mind at rest. He was very polite, clean and friendly and I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking a reliable, trustworthy and professional engineer.
