    We had a new boiler fitted

    Posted 14 January

    Tom comes highly recommended, he is very quick to respond to the initial enquiry and then is very informative on the options available without the hard sell. Once Tom takes on the job he keeps you informed on dates and times. He is a conscientious worker and very respectfull when in your home. He is a very clean and tidy professional and completed the job in a very short timescale I cannot recommended Tom highly enough. Hire Tom you will not regret it.
