    I cannot thank Karl enough for coming out very quickly to look at our broken boiler. Karl is very professional and completely trustworthy. Now I’ve found Thackeray Heating LTD I will only be using them. 💯 recommend this company.

    Have used several times before for boiler servicing etc, this time fitted a complete new boiler plus other ancillaries that have made life simply and easier going forward. Time taken was excellent, price was very good, everything cleared away. Absolutely recommended many thanks

I recommend Thackeray Heating very much and I would have no hesitation in hiring the company for any plumbing work in the future. Karl is a great guy and he always responds to my requests promptly.

    Great firm

    Posted 23 January

    Good communication, quick to contact and respond to messages. Visit arranged for next day. Boiler repaired and fully working again. Couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Will be using the firm again in the not too distant future. Definitely would recommend this firm.

I have worked in the plumbing and heating industry since 2006.


I studied for four years at Suffolk college whilst working as an apprentice with a local plumbing and heating firm gaining my level two and three qualification in plumbing and heating, as well as my gas safe qualification.


I started working for myself in 2010.


Since then, I have taken on an apprentice (Brandan) who has been with me since 2013 he is now a fully qualified heating engineer and is carrying out jobs on his own.


I pride my company on being very neat and tidy in everything we do; the only way I can guarantee this is to train my staff from the beginning. This way I feel I can mold them into my idea of the perfect engineers.


We cover a wide range of work including bathroom installations, boiler breakdowns, servicing, landlord certificates, hot water cylinder replacements, radiator changes, power flushing, leak repairs, and much more.
