The plumber Joe called on time and effected a very good repair. There had been several visits by a different firm to cure the slow filling toilet cistern but almost immediately Joe identified the problem and fitted what he termed "the old-fashioned ball valve" which solved the problem. The engineer sends a text message when he is on the way which helped. We will certainly use A C Wilgar as our first call if we need plumbing work in the future. Very happy to recommend.

After ringing four plumbers (of which two didn't get back to me and the others told me that they couldn't visit for two weeks), I was more than relieved and happy that AC Wilgar came out the same day, diagnosed the problem, ordered the part which came the very next day and my shower was back up and running within forty eight hours. Really professional and friendly service. Highly recommend.

My mains water pipe started leaking before the stopcock; a genuine plumbing emergency! I only discovered this at about 11:30pm on a Saturday night and dreaded ringing around to find someone to help. After calling various supposedly 24/7 companies listed on Which? Trusted Traders, to be met with either voicemail or the occasional "sorry, I don't do that", AC Wilgar were by contrast very professional and able to come within about 30 mins. They weren't able to fix the problem there and then owing to the age of the pipe meaning special fittings were required, but they gave frank and fair advice on how we could get the problem sorted during the day and ensured that we knew how to turn the water on and off if we did need it in the meantime. I hope never to have to get an emergency plumber out again; it's a costly and stressful exercise. But at least I know now that I could go straight to AC Wilgar for peace of mind.

Very old shower broke down and I thought it was beyond repair but A C Wilgar managed to locate and order replacement parts and it’s as good as new!! Saved the need for a costly replacement. Polite and professional throughout. As a landlord it’s vital that I have a trustworthy business I can rely on when things go wrong, which is why I have Diamond cover with A C Wilgar and have done for a number of years. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!

Was really impressed, was the first time we used Wilgar, knew our old boiler was on its way out, we had been paying British Gas monthly for a breakdown service, British Gas were unable to attend so we called Wilgar, they arrived within 20 minutes. As we expected new boiler required, they managed to replace the boiler in under a week, due to no heating and hot water, the engineer was thorough, tidy, polite knew exactly what he was doing. Also found out Wilgar do a breakdown service which includes plumbing and electrical and is much cheaper than British Gas, so signed up for this too and have cancelled British Gas. Thanks, Wilgar.

This is the second time I've used AC Wilgar for my annual boiler and unvented cylinder service. I was impressed with the customer service we received from the engineer, Jack Holding, this afternoon. He was very punctual, friendly and helpful. Some are very wary to allow tradesmen into their houses at the moment and although it's not something I'm overly concerned about, he followed all the Covid safety procedures, which would reassure nervous customers. He explained exactly what he was doing and gave me advice in relation to a couple of questions I had about heating in general. Nothing was too much trouble. A credit to your firm and himself.

Needed a new boiler as old one was on its way out after twenty years so chose Wilgar as the quote was competitive and impressed by the service plans available along with being a local firm. Wilgars attended when they said they would to carry out the installation unfortunately it didn't go to plan through no fault of Wilgars they were excellent even had temporary heating delivered by the boss himself late at night as it was so cold he made sure we were without heating for a very short period of time by going above and beyond with service along with everything he could to keep the bill down. Would highly recommend this company one of the few companies that actually cares about its customers.

Service from start to finish was exceptional. The email and text advising the whereabouts of your engineer is priceless. Engineer (Paul C) was very knowledgeable and communicated his intentions throughout. once the job was complete, they checked their files and serviced my boiler on the same call, which has saved me time and money. Top job, well done!

I contacted AC Wilgar in February regarding issues with my central heating/water, needed vertical and horizontal radiators fitted, needed a new cooker fitted and other odds and sods. Once the work was completed we had issues with the heat coming from the rads and a couple of minor concerns. I called Lewis Beaven at Wilgar and he resolved everything. I have used many tradesmen over the years and in my honest opinion when things go wrong and they have been paid - you are on your own, not with AC Wilgar. Patrick C
