“I always have great service and communication when dealing with John; he has completed numerous jobs at my home. I recently needed a radiator replacing at short notice, and he managed to help me once again, completing the task quickly and efficiently. I would (and often do) recommend him to others”

“Just had my boiler annual service carried out by Max, Who was very polite & friendly, he was straight onto the job which was carried out with no mess and in about 40 minutes. After he had finished he explained any potential defects found which could affect the reliability of the boiler. But in no way pressurised me to have the work done. A very good service thank you.”
“Excellent service from first contact to discuss our boiler issues. As anticipated, we went with a replacement and this work has been completed to our full satisfaction. Mark completed the presale and installation, so he knew the exact requirements and we didn’t get passed between different teams or people. Highly recommended.”
“I’d highly recommend Stephen and his son George. We were in a bit of bind and needed a new boiler fitting relatively quickly. Stephen appreciated our situation and my understanding is that he moved aspects of his existing work schedule around to help us and make things work. Communication and pricing was clear, and on the day itself, Stephen and George arrived on time, were polite and genuine throughout, and clearly made an effort to tidy up leaving little trace of the significant work that had taken place. I would not hesitate to use them again and would happily recommend them to friends and family. Thanks guys, really appreciate your efforts.”
“John and Andy did an amazing job, completely gutted out the old boiler and ancient attic water tanks and replaced it with a very good combo-boiler. Very respectful, brushing shoes each time entering my house and overall only have positive words. The boiler works like a charm! Cheers lads Also worth noting communication via email and calls has been stellar. Clearly very customer focused.”
“On a Saturday my old Vokera boiler stopped working and by that Thursday I had a new and stronger Glow Worm boiler installed, with minimal fuss, by Adam. I phoned Adam on the weekend and he came out first thing on Monday to have a look. The gas valve was broken, so Adam sent me over invoices for the broken part and for new boiler without pressure to choose. In the end, given the boiler’s age I opted to have it replaced. He and his colleague came out on Thursday and within a few hours my boiler was installed, and they were so clean with the instal! So so rare with tradespeople. Would 10/10 recommend and will be having him service my boiler annually.”
“Cut exactly how I wanted it, very fast turn around too ordered in morning was ready but midday to collect”
“Just had J.P Conlon ( a joiner that was recommended to me by the door store) fit a set of double doors for me. The result is simply stunning.He took great care & his workmanship was second to none. A very pleasant & friendly guy who got on with the job & took care to clean up after himself. Absolutely delighted with the result”
“Two lovely ladies came to clean my 3-bedroom 3-bathroom flat today. Did a wonderful job. Total took about 3.5h and it was cleaned spotless. Will definitely be calling again”
“Just had 2 en-suite bathrooms updated. Chris & Marcus were outstanding, helpful & considerate of our needs. The work carried out is of excellent quality. Dan came out & did the site survey & also called a couple of times during the work to check we were happy with everything being done. Can’t recommend Pride plumbers enough. Wouldn’t use any other company, always on hand if we need help & advise.”
“I had an issue and contacted James. He diagnosed the issue through talking to me on the phone and by me sending photos!! He was polite, professional and very tidy. He explained the whole process of what he was doing, and kept me updated on everything he was doing. He resolved the issue, and was very reasonably priced! I would definitely recommend James, and I will now use no other plumber!! Thank you James!”
“I recently had a fantastic experience with a local laptop repair service that I feel compelled to share. My laptop, which is crucial for both my work and personal life, unexpectedly died on me. The thought of losing all my data was terrifying, and I was bracing myself for a long, expensive, and frustrating process. From the moment I walked in, I was put at ease. The technician was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. They listened patiently to my description of the problem and immediately ran a diagnostic test. Within minutes, they were able to pinpoint the issue and explain it to me in a way that was easy to understand, without any technical jargon. I was given a clear and fair estimate for the repair, and they even walked me through the different options available to me.”
“I would highly recommend Peter & Cercel Plumbing & Heating for your plumbing needs. Had them round to replace immersion heaters. Good communication, fair quote, on time and professional, explained everything, plus lovely guys. They'll be my go-to local plumbers from now on!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the service I received! From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and highly skilled. They arrived right on time, quickly diagnosed the problem, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. The repair was done efficiently, and the quality is outstanding—you can tell they really take pride in their craftsmanship. What impressed me most was their attention to detail and respect for my home. They kept everything neat and clean, and the price was very fair for the level of service provided. It’s rare to find a company that is this reliable and trustworthy, but they exceeded my expectations in every way. I will definitely be using them again for any plumbing needs and highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest, dependable, and top-quality service.”
“Recently we used Rowlen Boiler Services to service our boiler and couldn't be happier with the experience. Nice people to deal with, knowledgeable friendly engineer who arrived on time and was happy to explain what he was doing and the state of the boiler - all at a reasonable price. We will continue to use their service in future and have already recommended them to a friend.”
“Really quick to book me in.. such good communication too. Super quick and really polite, couldn’t reccomend Mark more. Thank you once again xx”
“We have used Fabricmax quite a few times now. For our offices and also at home. Matt always does a great job. He's reliable and personable. Sofa was looking very tired after a recent refurb. Now very clean and looking amazing! Thank you :-)”
“Really great service. Friendly team, great communication from the start. Our carpet looks and smells so much better! I can’t wait now see what colour it is again!”
“Amazing service from Bespoke Gas. We had a problem with our tenants’ heating and needed a quick solution. The managing agents were slow and obtained an astronomical quote from their contractor. Bespoke Gas visited within a few hours of our call and fixed the problem straight away. Result: happy tenants and happy landlords (also because the cost was very reasonable.) This is a great company which understands how to deal with customers. Don’t hesitate to contact them if you need help.”

“Great service from Express Boilers! Our boiler had stopped working overnight - they came that day and got the boiler working again. Having given them the fault code - they came equipped with the necessary part, and then came back a week later to do some further repairs. Both visits, the engineer was very friendly, professional, turned up on time and tidied up as well. Thank you - would definitely recommend and will be getting them back to service the boiler.”
“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Martin & Co, and especially to Mr. Bradley, for their outstanding professionalism and support throughout the sale of my apartment in London. Mr. Bradley was always attentive, transparent, and efficient in every step of the process. His dedication and excellent communication made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Thank you again for your great efforts — I truly appreciate your hard work and would highly recommend Martin & Co to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in London.”
“Nathaniel has been a superstar right from the start, I was moving with my 3 daughters due to a separation and he was extremely sensitive to our situation and answered all my many questions promptly and within just a couple of weeks everything was sorted and I cant thank him enough. The whole process with Martins & co was very professional and so easy. I would highly recommend them.”
“We very rarely write a review or pass comment on any business or activity, but I feel compelled to write about Great British Kitchens & Interiors Ltd. Realising we needed a new or updated kitchen we duly scoured the kitchen workshops and suppliers in our area. Upon arrival at their showrooms at Badgers Mount (Polhill) it was.obvious that GBK was a serious contender for our hard earned cash. Experiencing no pressure to purchase, we were guided through their range of units and it became obvious to us that GBK were the company to use. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. But it’s one thing to see your dream kitchen in a showroom, against perfectly smooth walls and level floors, what would it look like in our 1930’s semi? We need not have worried, the fitting of our kitchen was superb. Attention to detail and constructed as if the fitter was placing the kitchen in his own house. The kitchen we chose was not cheap but in this life you only get what you pay for.. WE HAVE NO HESITATION WHATSOEVER IN RECOMMENDING GBK&I Fred & Sue Griffiths”
“I am extremely grateful to Peacock Heating. Des fitted a combi boiler in my dad's house. My dad had recently come out of hospital to find his old central heating system completely broken. Des came out quickly and spent time explaining things to my dad. His quote was extremely competitive and he kindly agreed to fit the boiler as soon as possible ( within 10 days). He arrived lon time and completed the work in 1 day ( other companies had not only quoted higher prices but had said the work would take 3-5 days). Des spent time explaining how to use the new system to my dad. He left the house in a clean and tidy state. My father was very pleased with the finished product and finds it easy to use. I have been incredibly impressed with Peacock Heating from start to finish. Des is a total professional and clearly knows what he's doing! I loved that he sent a message and a link to track him on the day of the fitting so we would know exactly when he would arrive.This message came with his picture so that my father would be able to safely let him into the property. These little touches show how thoughtful and understanding Des is. I would (and will be) recommend him to anyone. He is excellent!!”
“I would highly recommend using C J Charles Ltd. Not only are they quick and efficient, they also saved us a small fortune on hiring scaffolding when replacing our boiler. They came out and undertook a full survey for the quote and carried out the works in less than a week from us accepting the quote! The installation team were very polite and friendly and left no mess in our house, everything was tidied as they went. We can't thank the team enough for working quickly and efficiently around our house with minimal disruption. I don't think I would look anywhere else for plumbing and heating after using C J Charles.”
“⭐️ Top-Notch Work at a Great Price! ⭐️ Danny and his colleague did a great job today. They moved my radiator with new pipework, fitted new thermostat valves, and put in a new kitchen tap. They turned up on time, laid sheets down so everything stayed clean, and got straight to it The work is spot on, everything looks great, and the price was really competitive too, good value for the quality. I’m honestly so happy with how everything turned out. I’d 100% recommend Danny, and I’ll definitely be calling him again for any future jobs!”
“Very happy with Paul’s work - he came recommended and I have no problem recommending him too!”
