Bourne Plumbing & Heating

We had a Viessmann boiler installed and serviced by Anthony and we're very happy with it.

Contacted Tony about a faulty tap, which he came and fixed when he said he would. Whilst here he also replaced a cistern toilet handle, which I was having problems with when removing the old one. All in all excellent service, and explained what the problems were. Will definitely use again.

I decided to try Bourne Plumbing after reading the good reviews and putting up with unreliable plumbers for the last few years. I organised a landlord's gas safety check with Anthony via email . He was right on time, tidy and polite - therefore no problem with him working in a premises with occupied tenants. He completed the work as expected for which I paid him. Within days, the invoice arrived in the post. Overall, very professional and will definitely use again.

We have used Tony twice. The first time to fix a malfunctioning toilet, and the second to cap off a gas pipe while we were waiting for a new appliance to be delivered. On both occasions he came at the agreed time and at short notice. He was polite, efficient and tidy. We Would not hesitate to use him again and to recommend him to others.

I called Tony to fix a leak from the toilet overflow on behalf of my 83yr old mother who was worried that the pipes would freeze if the weather turned icy. Tony came at the agreed time, closed the water supply, removed and replaced the faulty parts and as requested put in a valve so that in future the water to the toilet can be turned off in the bathroom. Tony was polite, had listened to what I had told him over the phone and so had all the parts with him, got on with the job and fixed the problem. Mum's peace of mind restored, thank you.

My tenant reported that the bathroom toilet was broken and leaking into the floor in early December. My letting agent sent their plumber around and he did a fix that did not resolve the problem. I then called in British Gas / Dynorod who did a similarly poor repair. Neither advised me of the full extent of the damage, which had permeated the floorboards by this time. With Christmas fast approaching and an increasingly agitated tenant I found Tony's details on Which Local. Once we established contact with the tenant Tony went to look at the problem and prepared a written quote within 24 hours to replace the loo, check the floorboards and replace the lino. Once I gave the go-ahead Tony arranged to carry out the repairs at the tenant's convenience and completed the work in good time for the Christmas break. I particularly liked the fact that Tony called when he said he would, kept me in the loop as the job progressed and completed the job on-time and within his quoted price. I will be calling Tony again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend his work.

I received excellent service from Tony when I had to have some pipework done so that my gas could be turned back on again. A Vaillant engineer was 'fixing' a water leak in my boiler when he noticed a problem with the gas pipe and immediately switched off the gas. No heating, no hot water, no cooking, nobody to turn to. In a panic I turned to Which Local and saw the recommendations for Tony and I can say they are all spot on. He couldn't make it on the day but turned up at 07:30 the next morning, changed the pipe and turned on the gas. No fuss, no time wasting, no mess, he had all the tools and was very friendly. I also thought he was good value for what he charged. I would thoroughly recommend him.

Tony is a star. I needed my boiler moving floors & replacing. Tony was one of a number of people I discussed the job with. Although he was not the cheapest he listened to what I wanted, presented me with a couple of options and make a recommendation. He started the job when agreed and kept me in the loop with regards to his progress on a daily basis. When leaving for the day he made the place in which he was working safe and cleaned up all the mess made. He is a professional and an all round nice person. I highly recommend him.

Came when he said he would to fix bathroom taps that had no water coming out. Job took about 25 min and I was charged his callout fee of £55 which seemed reasonable. Also gave some advice on our CH system as well. Overall friendly & helpful and would definitely use again.

Excellent service. Reliable on timing and telephoned when he said he would. He performed a power flush of our central heating system. He was very polite and prepared to answer the many questions that we asked about what he was doing and why. Maybe not the cheapest but fairly competitive pricing. Can't imagine Anthony letting anyone down.

Anthony serviced my daughter's boiler in Edgware, replaced water pump, fitted new bathroom taps and waste. No mess, no fuss, no waffle. He is kind considerate and very helpful. We highly recommend him.

We found Anthony through "Which" to investigate and fix our gas leak and temporary stop the megaflow from leaking. Anthony came on time and fixed the gas leak, he was very effecient and ensured all the floorboards that he had to take off was fixed back and said he would be back to fix the megaflow leak once we had the part.

Having picked out Bourne Plumbing, to replace my gas fired boiler, from Which Local recommendations, I was not disappointed. Anthony came on the agreed date and alloted time and set to removing my old boiler. With hardly a break, but numerous cups of tea, he worked from 8am until 7pm each day until the job was completed.Once finished everything was tidied up and the rubbish removed. The finished installation was more than satisfactory and I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

We needed our gas hob decommissioned to install a new induction hob. We found Tony via the Which Local + the Gas Safe register. He was also recommended by the electrician we had booked to fit the new hob. Other installers we contacted were not interested by such a small job. Tony arranged to come the evening before our old hob was decommissioned to minimise disruption. He came on time, did a good job and the price was reasonable. Would recommend him anytime.

I needed to extend a gas pipe under the floor-boards. Tony was very prompt, had all the tools and parts required and undertook the work efficiently.

Anthony repaired our central heating system, fixed the toilet and fitted new kitchen taps, he worked efficiently, tidied up afterwards and was to time. I recommend him.

As Anthony Bourne is good, his job list meant we had to wait a while between quote and the work being done, however the communication (phone, email, text) was excellent throughout, and we were happy/prepared to wait. He came in and did the jobs with minimum fuss. He identified other problems so we could make informed decisions about what we were prepared to pay for i.e. pointed out the insufficient size of pipes for our radiators prior to us laying a floating floor. (We chose to leave the status quo). Offered advice on water flow problems and variety of potential solutions for us to explore with pro's and con's. Extremely tidy. Did what he said, and when he said he would do it. Fixed previous plumbers failure. Came back for the 2nd part in a very reasonable time period so the job didn't linger. Professional estimate and payment on invoice after the job. Professional throughout.

I contacted Bourne Plumbing early this year to advise on a central heating system in which a new boiler was installed two years ago by a different plumber, and which since then had never worked reliably. Tony advised and quoted promptly for a powerflush. Because he was very busy with other work I had to wait several months for this to be done; however when he came he carried the work out fast and efficiently, and also reported on other aspects of the system which were probably contributing to its poor performance. He supplied a quote for remedial work, which I acccepted, and once again carried out the work courteously and efficiently. When the boiler still failed to work properly he came promptly and fitted a new part; when the problem recurred he came promptly, found and rectified a problem with the exterior pipework. Since then the system has been working fine. I found Tony courteous, efficient, knowledgeable, skilled and highly intelligent; he diagnosed and rectified a number of problems in a heating system originally installed over 30 years ago and modified several times since then. I would recommend him without reservation.

I was a new customer to Anthony with central heating not working in February. Anthony arranged to come the same day and fixed the boiler problem at a reasonable charge. I happily recommend Anthony.

Tony is a real find. He replumbed our house which involved replacing all piping and radiators, moving the boiler, installing a megaflow system, taking pipes up into the attic to anticipate a future loft conversion and fitting a toilet, bath and shower. Although a big job Tony's estimate was reasonable and he stuck to it. He was very tidy and all work was done within the predicted timeframe. I've since had other workmen comment on the high quality of his work. Tony should be the first and only plumber you call.

Bourne Plumbing provided us with a very prompt visit during which the nature of our problem was explained clearly to us and the first steps which we would need to take in order to resolve the problem. There was no charge for this advice and service. We were most impressed by this and will certainly use them again.

Tony has done three bits of work for me now: servicing a boiler, fixing a problem with a toilet cistern, and replacing a central heating radiator valve. He carried out all these jobs extremely well and in a very fuss-free way. He will definitely be the first plumber I will call on future occasions.

We used Bourne Plumbing & Heating twice in the last three months. We found Tony very good and thorough and would certainly use him again - not cheap but worth it.

We have just had a new boiler installed, and were pleased with the advice and efficient work that we received from Bourne Plumbing. We were given plenty of support and patience during the process of considering what kind of system and boiler to have, changing from a conventional boiler and hot water tank, to a combi boiler. The boiler recommended and installed is a Veissmann, a German make that is not in the Which reviews, but has been strongly advised. The estimate given was very competitive, and cheaper than the national provider. We were very satisfied with the speed and professionalism of the work done over a period of 2 days, left with hot water overnight, and cleaning was done during and at the end of the job.

Tony installed a Viessmann Combi boiler with a neww gas pipe. He worked consistently hard to produce a neat and professional standard. He was very helpful and I would highly recommend him,
