Have used Blackwell Heating for about 4 years now and have found engineers efficient and friendly. The prices aren't too high for general maintenance of appliances so I won't be changing firms anytime soon.

Recently had a new combi boiler fitted. Obtained a satisfactory quote, alongside some good advice and had the boiler fitted a couple of weeks later. Installers were very efficient and friendly and just got on with the job. No long stops for tea breaks, in fact amazingly apart from 40 minutes lunch they just worked straight through. House was left clean and tidy and someone came back to cover some exposed pipework a couple of weeks later. A couple of radiators were not working correctly but this was quickly rectified. One slight issue was an extra £54 bill by having to call out the burglar alarm engineer to re-set the alarm after the installer had accidentally taken out a fuse when removing the old hot water tank. We did ask if Blackwells could cover this - as it was their fault, but heard nothing back. Other than this minor issue we were extremely happy with the work done and have no hesitation in recomending them.

Second time I have used this company - first time to replace / update my 30 year old Worcester boiler with a condensing Worcester boiler. Second time to completely gut bathroom & install a walk in shower/toilet/sink/rad/tiles/flooring/ceiling/lighting etc. that I had designed & sourced & bought all products for. Advice from Blackwell heating records installation available. Installers don't see problems - only solutions. Without hesitation can highly recommend this very professional company.

I was very pleased when Connor and Adam installed my Worcester Greenstar CDI Classic boiler. They came and got on with the job, only taking a short break at lunchtime. They cleared and took all the rubbish away, and left my kitchen clean and tidy when they finished. The boiler was installed and operating within seven hours, and I have not had any problem since. A good job, well done.

We were thrilled with the amazing work done, from the initial quoting and planning process to the finished results the service has been flawless The guys were so professional, polite and worked so cleanly, I had been warned by friends that have had bathrooms done to buckle in for some serious inconvenience, delays and mess but my experience has been the opposite. I was given expert advice and was guided away from generic beige and into some bolder choices that look so contemporary and fresh. Everyone showed up exactly when they said they would and I would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone

Having used Blackwell to install a new heating system in our house we commissioned them to refurbish and replace all the heating systems in a rental property. They also installed a new shower. An excellent job and a great team.

Having recently moved to Darlington there were several issues needing to be attended to including a repair to the gas boiler and full service, replacement of two leaking radiator valves, leaking toilet soil pipe, etc. These were all dealt with promptly by a very pleasant engineer without any fuss. I was charged exactly what was quoted and am very happy with the work that was done.

Commenced on agreed date. Works carried out to an exceptional level. Knowledge of systems encountered couldn't be bettered. Work carried out was also to a level of customer needs with respect to cleanliness, and above average points of reassurance on system operations and quality.

I reported leak problem at 8.45 in the morning. Two engineers turned up within the hour and very quickly identified and rectified the problem. The engineers were very thorough and certainly know their profession. I would definitely recommend Blackwell Heating & Plumbing.
