    Emergency call out!

    Posted 06 August

    After posting job on check a trade on a Sunday due to a huge leak causing damage to our walls. I was called by Mat- after sending some pictures he provided a safe fix until he could visit the following day! This saved our walls and the cost of a Sunday call out!! All work then completed by the following Wednesday once the part was ordered! Very genuine good guy. Will be using again!

    Old boiler replacement

    Posted 19 July

    Contacted to check boiler as making an odd noise. Very quick response and when checked boiler found fault quickly, leaking faulty valve. Made boiler safe and tried to source parts but due to being over 20y old could not be sourced. Quoted and installed new boiler in a quick and efficient way, very professional and reliable. Quote was reasonable and better than any others I checked. Highly recommend, went above and beyond to try and get everything sorted in as short a time as possible and very competitive . Came to check all was ok after a week. Cannot fault work, courteous and helpful
