Stephen McCluskey, Managing Director at Which? Trusted Traders, said: “Traders like South London Heating that take pride in their work and deliver consistently high standards of customer service are not only good for consumers, they are setting the benchmark for their profession.”

Mark Gallagher, Director of South London Heating commented:

"We’re thrilled to have won the first ever Which? Trusted Trader of the Year Award! We welcome this achievement as a great honour, particularly as we were up against stiff competition across all trades in the UK! This coveted award by such an esteemed organisation as Which? is a stamp of approval of our company's values, our quality of work and excellent customer service."

These values are transferred on the Which? Trusted Traders scheme, and are also our company’s values. Winning the Which?
