We had our boiler fitted by 1st Call Services in 2011. They serviced it every year since then. We are very happy with their work.

David & his team made a fantastic job of replacing our central heating system with a new Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i combination boiler together with replacing 10 radiators and removing the cold water and hot water tanks. Arrived at agreed time each day and laid protective ground sheets in the work areas to ensure a tidy job whilst doing the installation & commissioning. They also tidied up and hoovered the work areas each night before leaving. David discussed our needs during the estimate visit and gave helpful input to offer a better solution with a competitive price. David leads an experienced work team who were hardworking, quietly efficient and provide a great central heating service. I would have no hesitation to highly recommend 1st Call Services to other Which readers.

My father used 1st Call Services to fit his Worcester Bosch boiler years ago and recommended them to me. Having now sampled their service I can see why he sings their praises.

Which? Local Review

Based on reviews in Which? Local and the competitive quote provided, I employed 1st Call (David Ryther) to replace the 25 - 30 year old (finally dead) boiler in my bungalow. Due to a change in regulations this involved re-siting the boiler from the kitchen to the garage and running pipes around the loft to connect to the central heating and hot water cylinder. The rain on the day was torrential so the 1st Call team were pretty wet from moving from house to garage and installing the external flue. They did a great job, started and finished in one day, and remained cheerful throughout despite their soaking. Nearly 3 months on and the Worcester Bosch boiler is working well and (fingers crossed!) all the pipework is sound and leak free. I have no hesitation in recommending 1st Call.
