Sometimes things go smoothly and according to plan, and sometimes they don't. It's when things go wrong, that you discover whether the company is as reliable and trustworthy as they claim. In this case, there were unforeseen difficulties but Baileys came through. They installed a heat pump for us, and there were several problems, but they always sent out someone, even well outside normal hours, and fixed things up. Throughout they were polite and professional. I would not hesitate to trust them for a plumbing task (and hopefully next time, it'll be an easier one!).

Guy has been doing plumbing jobs for me over the last 4 years. He is busy, but when its urgent, he is always there. He is easy to deal with, comes with great solutions, and solid advice. And I find him reasonably priced compared to other plumbers. And I much prefer to deal with Guy, as he works for himself, than one of the large firms.

We called Guy out as our cistern had stopped working and the loo would not flush. He managed to fit us in the same day - which was excellent. He talked through what the problem was and how much the replacement part would be, before carrying out the necessary work. Guy was incredibly honest and transparent about the work from start to finish and we will definitely be recommending him and using him again in the future.

What a great experience I have had using Bailey Plumbing & Heating Ltd to install my new boiler, from start to finish. I am glad that I have supported such a local company, and could see that they take pride in their work. Guy and his assistant was very clear on what needed to be done and open to suggestions as well. Work was done for the price that was quoted, with no nasty surprises, which also shows that they are ethically sound. Would definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone without a doubt.

Guy is very friendly, approachable and professional. He showed a great deal of respect and kindness to my elderly father throughout the works at his house. Whilst drawing up the quote for central heating replacement he listened intently, asked pertinent questions and answered all my detailed follow up questions in the following days in order to fully understand our requirements. In terms of the quote, I imagine you could find cheaper if you hunt around, however, for the quality of work done, materials used, and the sheer ease of doing business, I found it to be very good value and glad we went with Guy. The works were completed quickly and with minimal disruption. Guy checked in with me throughout to ensure everything was being done to our satisfaction. Electric heaters were even provided to heat the house while the work took place and they did a thorough job of cleaning up afterwards, leaving the house cleaner than it was before they started. At the end, he also spent time explaining how the system worked and the registration documentation, which was provided promptly. From beginning to end, a pleasure to deal with, completely frictionless and extremely pleased with the installation.

Rob from Bailey plumbing and heating did a great job installing our boiler. Very hard working and did a thorough job making sure that all the issues we’d previously had were also rectified and everything is working efficiently ready for the winter. Robs also an affable person and took time to stop and answer and question we had about what was going on. Very professional. We’d recommend Bailey and Rob and also Guy the owner if you require and plumbing work done.

My wife and I bought our current house when new 43 years ago. We decided it was time to refurbish the family bathroom and cloakroom and due to balance issues, to concert our e/s/b into a walk in shower. We sought three quotes and retained Bailey's not based on price but being the most comprehensive. In addition they appeared to have a larger work force. They estimated the work would take 9 weeks and once we accepted their quote they provided a programme giving the work on a daily basis and impressively the employees engaged in doing that work. At no time did we regret our decision, the work was completed in the 10th week, all the employees were polite, trustworthy and willing to go out of their way to oblige and keep the mess contained within certain areas as much as possible. Their attention to detail especially after snagging was exceptional. we would not hesitate to recommend Baileys in the future.

Bailey Plumbing & heating recently installed a replacement gas boiler in my home. Rob who did the survey and most of the installation was friendly and informative. The work was completed on time in a neat and professional manner with minimum disturbance. When a Manufacturers fault developed in the boiler this was attended to the same day. I thoroughly recommend this Company for their friendly helpful staff, reasonable cost, and first class work.

We recently retained this company to completely refurbish two 43 year old bathrooms and a cloakroom over a ten week period in the summer of 2024. Our previous review in respect of that work will explain why we had no hesitation in asking them to redecorate, for the first time in 15 years, our principal bedroom. Their decorator, Kevin, was obliged to contend with the room being partly furnished and a wall-mounted corner TV and 2 double wardrobes with beading. He took 4 days and as with all Baileys' workers proved courteous, trustworthy and always willing to provide professional guidance. The redecoration was finished on time and within budget.

From the time I spoke to Teresa, the administrator at Bailey Plumbing, regarding the fitting of a new shower in my bathroom, I found the Company to be efficient and professional. Luke the plumber was friendly and helpful, and completed the task in a tidy and timely manner. I have no hesitation in recommending Baileys, and will certainly use them for future work.

Guy and his team came over to check on my faulty boiler. As the only option was to change it for a new one, they took care of everything. The job was well explained, answering all my questions. It was carried out on schedule and within the budget. They have been available for the annual checks, which has made me feel well taken care of.

We called Bailey's out for a leaking pipe in the loft. Charlie came and identified the problem and made it safe but had to wait for an estimate to be agreed. Visit was booked with us for following Friday but no-one turned up. On checking realised it was left off job sheet. These things happen! Huge apologies and Luke came on Saturday at 7.30a.m. and fixed the leak. Despite this one glitch everyone concerned was helpful, cheerful and responsive. Look no further.

Teresa, Office Manager, was very helpful in our email exchanges, offering me a quote for the work and arranging the appointment and for the right part to be sourced. Luke came during the agreed time slot and, along with a colleague, swapped my broken immersion heater for a new one - in and out in about half an hour. Hourly rate seems a bit on the high side, but they charged as quoted and had great customer service.

We had a new boiler and four new radiators fitted. We have used Baileys before and Guy, Freya and Luke are always very professional, polite and friendly. Their work is excellent but they do need to demand a better quality of service from their suppliers and to check product correctness and quality before arriving on site. We did have problems that needed to be rectified. Having spoken with Guy about this, I am confident that Baileys will act on this going forward. Problems happen from time to time in every business, but how they are dealt with is one of the most important factors in good customer service. Guy immediately apologised, jumped on this issue, and solved it as quickly as possible. All things considered, their plumbers and their office staff, Teresa and Wiktoria, are polite, friendly, professional and customer-focused. They are a good company to do business with and we will definitely use them again.

We do apologies for product issues during the installation process and appreciate your patience and understanding.

"Full Monty service"
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Sadly my experience was nothing like the previous one with them for which I gave a 5* rating. In my correspondence with the company prior to them coming I was told "the Full Monty service" included "a full strip down clean of the main heat exchanger, a replacement burner gasket, new ignition electrodes, a system health check, a radiator inspection & a full dose of inhibitor in your heating system." From this description I was expecting a thorough flushing & servicing of the whole system as it was considerably more expensive than a basic one. I cleaned & cleared round all my radiators, so the engineer could access them. On the day a young lad came round who I challenged when it became clear that he was not going to be flushing any radiators. He phoned his office & said I could stop the service, but I had taken the day out for this & the service needed to be done. In the end I don't believe all my radiators were properly inspected or bled and I’m uncertain as to whether any inhibitor was used as the young engineer didn’t really tell me what he was doing or what he had done. He said he'd serviced all radiators but I was in my office all the time & he never came in there. Afterwards he'd left quite a bit of mess on the floor by the boiler. After complaining, I received a second visit, where a senior manager kindly cleaned & looked at the radiators, but a second visit shouldn't have been necessary. Only recommend company because the Bailey's themselves gave better experience.

Terrible Value for money
Customer Service
Quality

Guy came to service my installation in October, they then quoted for, and replaced, a faulty expansion valve in the boiler, immediately after which, the boiler broke down completely (pcb mother board failed). Whilst I do not know for sure, I do not expect that it had anything to do with the work they carried out. Guy recommended that we replace the boiler and provided a quote which included 3 full days labor to replace the boiler. I like to trust the relationships that I build up as a client and do not like to have to shop around every time I need something done, but I did a simple internet search and found that a boiler replacement should only take 1.5 days, so I got a like for like quote from another firm on the list of authorized companies of the original supplier and it was half the price and installation was completed in one day. When I compared Guy's quote for the boiler itself with the retail price online (which he can probably get cheaper) I am very glad that I went to the trouble to shop around, It turned out overall thousands of pounds cheaper. I asked Guy to reduce the invoice of £582 for providing and installing the now useless expansion valve, at least a gesture or the profit element and am being threatened with legal action if I do not pay the invoice in full in 7 days. I encourage everyone, at the very least to always get a second opinion/quote when dealing with this company.

Thank you for spending the time leaving your review, any feedback is warmly welcomed. We do, however, feel it’s best to let people know our side of the story so they can make their own judgment. As with all of our remedial works, we always provide a quotation first and works only commence when you agree. We never land people with unexpected invoices, making sure all our prices are transparent. We also stand firm with our quotes. Even if our engineers spend longer on site than what we have quoted for, we honour the price agreed, therefore we strongly disagree that we are 'terrible value for money', since we spent a total of 5.5 hrs on-site and only invoiced you for 2.5, as per accepted quote. We spend a great deal of time ensuring that our costs remain competitive with other reputable, independent companies. We actively chose NOT to compete with companies who throw boilers in a single day, because quite frankly, we care too much about our reputation and our workmanship. Whilst Googling ‘how long does it take to replace a boiler’ is unhelpful, as this is never a ‘one rule for all’. Based on your installation, our quoted works involved upgrading all of your controls and heating pipework, meaning that the replacement boiler was not a straight swap. Furthermore, ALL of our boiler replacements includes, as per BS7593 (integrated within Part L of building control), power flush heating systems to ensure that boiler warranty is maintained and heating system is working at peak efficiency. As your farm house consists of multiple underfloor heating zones, we had actually allowed 1.5 days for the power flush alone, and given you claim your installation was complete in one day simply demonstrates to us that it's highly likely corners have been cut by your installer. From your review, it appears, as though you have no issue with the previous work we have carried out, but rather that you are being asked to pay for it. As a gesture of goodwill, we did initially offer a reduction in the cost of the replacement boiler on the basis we installed it (50% off the labour of our initial visit) however, as you opted to use a third party the offer was no longer valid and we have been pursuing the outstanding payment from 04/11/22. We assume that you work in an industry where you are paid for your time and materials, and we are asking that we are paid for ours. You have avoided paying for a number of weeks and only now when being threatened with legal action feel it is necessary to leave negative reviews, which do leave us rather bemused.
