Very pleased with recent emergency boiler replacement. The job was done quickly and efficiently and everything was left clean and tidy on completion. The staff was pleasant and courteous. We are very happy with our new system and are impressed with the professionalism of every aspect of the firm's dealings with us.

In the middle of the COVID-19 crisis our thermostat broke which left us without heating. A quick phone call on the Monday brought a callout on the same day and hey presto a new thermostat fitted on the following day - fantastic service with social distancing observed and heating restored - very efficient and great service by a great company and we are very grateful! Thanks to Andy, Claire and all the team! Would recommend this company and have done!

The shower would not switch off and could only be controlled by switching the main stop tap off. We contacted them and they were there at the first possible opportunity, my availability not theirs. they checked it out let me know what was wrong and offered 2 options. We chose to replace the shower, they came back immediately and did the job all in less than 2 hours. I would highly recommend them.

I initially had a quote from to British Gas for our new boiler but due to poor communication and customer service on their part I cancelled the order. I suppose I chose Blackwell Heating and Plumbing by chance. I had seen their vans around so completed an online enquiry. From the initial survey to the completed work I have nothing but praise for the company. The staff arrived promptly were very polite and efficient they were clean and tidy workers and always tidied up before finishing. The work was scheduled to last a day and a morning it did, the estimate quoted was the price we paid (£1300 less than British Gas). I will also definitely use Blackwell Heating for the annual service, I have no hesitation in recommending this company.

We contracted Blackwell to convert a small, shallow broom closet into a downstairs WC. This involved extending the broom cupboard into our living room to make it large enough for the WC. It was a small space and so a toilet with a sink on top was recommended. Also, due to the location of the room, it was not possible to fit a regular toilet due to no space under the floor for normal waste pipes, therefore a macerator was the only option and the small diameter and pumping system meant it could go into the attic and across into the main waste pipe. We are very happy with the standard of work. It was made good with new flooring, and all of the skirting and coving was replaced in the lounge where the extension to the room had been made. Radiator also fitted. I'd heard stories of macerators being noisy and unreliable. We have had it for two weeks now and am happy with how quiet it is and there have been no issues as yet. Professional company who can be trusted. Thoroughly recommend.

We have just had our annual boiler service by Blackwell Plumbing and Heating. As always the engineer was very professional and efficient. We have used Blackwell Plumbing and Heating since the boiler was installed and always had excellent service from them, they are easy to contact and book an engineer. The main points are,they leave no mess, leave the house as they found it, answer any questions we have and have always arrived at the correct time. There prices are very reasonable for a job well done. We would have no hesitation in recommending to other people.
