I have had numerous home upgrading and renewal projects carried out over the past 8 years, all have been executed on time and budget. Projects have included: Downstairs Toilet complete upgrade. Main bathroom complete strip, reconfiguration and comprehensive installation. New Boiler. I have no hesitation in recommending this highly competent company. It's rare to find the expertise combined with efficiency, timing and nice people.

I contacted Active Plumbing and Heating as I always do, to arrange for a leaking outside tap to be replaced and for the boiler that Tom installed to be serviced. After the initial call to the company, I was emailed with dates/times that the jobs could be carried out. Once the work was booked I was sent reminder text messages regarding the scheduled works, which is very handy. The tap was replaced by one of the team, John, I was very pleased. Great service, he’s very friendly, knowledgeable and takes pride in what he does. Would definitely use Active Plumbing and Heating again, the job was completed on the day as expected, and would definitely recommend the company to others.

Called Tom at Active Plumbing for a Worcester-Bosch boiler service which was carried out quickly, efficiently and at great value. Chatting to Tom, he offered a couple of easy suggestions to improve out heating system which we delayed until March. John and young Tom carried-out the pressurisation of our then gravity-fed heating system in half a day. Pleased to say this is now much improved. Great value - thanks.

Coping with everything 2020 has thrown at me, including the passing of my wife, moving house and a completely different home environment, it was a breath of fresh air to find Tom and his Active Heating team. His knowledge and professionalism is obvious. The whole team are courteous, careful even Connor! I had a new boiler replacement and water softener equipment fitted in two days. Excellent... I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who wants genuine quality, workmanship and value for money. A special thank you to John for his expertise and company, to Connor for his forbearance, to Elliot for his obvious patience, and to (Captain) Tom for his hand in steering his amazing team. Thankyou!

Tom and his team gave us a completely new heating system. Tom had planned it out thoroughly and kept us up to date throughout. Active Heating has high standards for their work which was really great. The whole team were really friendly and helpful throughout. Communication was good and work was done to schedule and on budget. Would definitely recommend.

At the beginning of November Active Plumbing and Heating installed a new Worcester boiler and hot water cylinder into our property. They also carried out a full power flush to our system and removed a feeder tank from the loft. As we were changing from a conventional boiler to a system boiler quite a bit of pipe work was involved. We were very pleased with the work carried out by Tom and his team (Connor and John) over the three days the work took and were impressed with the obvious expertise and attention to detail involved. The team were reliable, turning up when they said they would, and then getting on with the job in an industrious manner. The few hitches were soon sorted out and we now have a very good heating system, so much better than the one we had previously and the house is warm and toasty in time for the winter. Also plenty of hot water. My impression is that Active Plumbing and Heating are a highly professional, reliable and expert company and we would certainly use them again and have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Tom has been excellent. He helped us work through the problem we had (blocked pipes, broken under-flooring pipes and clogged pump) and worked diligently on resolving the issues once we agreed on the best course of action. I never felt "pushed" to agree to something or to spend more. Everything was very clear and executed on time.

Tom & team just serviced my Worcester CH boiler again, replaced two failing motorised valves & a leaking drain tap. As always on time, friendly, expert and knowledgeable, work was completed rapidly, efficiently, and at a fair price. These were the 5 & 6 jobs Tom & team have done for me, including new boiler install, CH overhaul, annual boiler services, and plumbing in my new kitchen. Highly recommended for top-quality work, expert knowhow, and reasonable prices

John and Tom were very professional, reliable and lovely lads. I got my quote and my boiler fitted in a week at a very reasonable price and they listened to what we needed. All of the other quotes I received were over £1700 more expensive. Thank you so much.

Excellent service My old oil fired boiler water jacket developed a leak and a new boiler was required. The company that normally serviced the boiler confirmed that a new boiler was the only option but they left me with water still coming out all over the floor. They couldn't drain the system down as they were "not allowed to". I called Tom for an estimate on a new boiler he responded very promptly and when he arrived at my home, he had no problem in draining down the system whilst the other company stood and watched. The estimate for the boiler soon arrived and I was happy with the amount quoted. The work was carried out soon after and Tom and his team did an excellent job of getting us up and running including sorting out some siting problems with the condensate pump. His team were helpful, cheerful and very tidy. We will certainly use them again.
