Bourne Plumbing & Heating

My boiler completely stopped working and needed to be replaced during a cold snap of weather - nightmare! Anthony carried out the job efficiently and professionally and was able to get my hot water and heating running again very quickly. Anthony was helpful throughout the process, answering all of my questions. Would highly recommend!

I cannot speak more highly of the top-notch work Anthony has done for us. Embarrassingly, we hadn't had our heating system serviced in the 7 years in which we've lived the house and with a few leaky radiators thanks to some overzealous carpet fitters, Anthony's expertise and knowledge was a god send! What I also loved was his ability to make our system even more optimal than it was with a few tweaks, then explaining in simple terms what he'd done. It's really been a fantastic service and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

My third time using Bourne Plumbing and once again the job was completed to the highest standard. The job was to fit a heavy column radiator requiring two people. Anthony and Colin were true professionals and all round great guys. I wasn't initially able to get Bourne Plumbing in soon enough, so I had used another Which? trusted trader. What a mistake. The other company made three hashed attempts at fitting the radiator, giving up in the end but not before leaving me with crooked pipework, a damaged wall, and a corroded pipe join left behind beneath the floorboards. I then got Anthony and Colin in to do the job properly, and of course it was done in straight forward fashion, right first time. These guys are very experienced and professional. All I can say is look at the number of reviews that make up Bourne Plumbing's star rating, and compare it to the number of reviews other traders have. Go for Bourne, and wait for availability if you have to - worth it in the long run.

Bourne Plumbing and Heating attended my house soon after an opportunistic meeting in my neighbours where they were working. He diagnosed and cleared a horribly blocked and smelly waste pipe quickly with no nonsense. I would happily recommend to others with similarly blocked washing machine waste pipes and will definitely call on their services again for all matters plumbing related.

The hot water boiler at my cafe broke down.. (important as i cannot run it without hot water). Tony was on site within 24 hrs bringing with him a replacement boiler. It was fitted within 3 hours, alongside necessary remedial work not undertaken by previous installer! Tony was friendly, efficient, clean and tidy. Everything you could ask for I would thoroughly recommend him

Anthony came within an hour and sorted out our emergency so we could have running water again. Fantastic service from a very nice plumber.

We asked for replacing two leaky valves on taps. Anthony came on time, did the work in a very efficient manner. Charges were reasonable too. All in all, a very good experience, will call him again if we have issues on plumbing.

Bourne Plumbing came and repaired our toilet. Completed quickly and efficiently. Came quickly to repair. Trader was extremely helpful and very friendly.

I have used Tony for many years, he has always been professional, always does the right thing and meets his commitments. Tony installed a boiler and maintained it for many years, always servicing it as required. He has changed loads of taps in the property always supplying and fitting quality taps. Tony also removed an old water tank which required ceilings to be removed, plastered and a larger hatch to be fitting in the new ceiling. He managed all of this for us including the carpenter, plasterer and painter. If you are looking for someone who knows what to do, is professional, trustworthy and friendly, Tony is your man.

I have asked Tony to carry out work at my house before and each time he has been prompt, informative and efficient; I always know the work done will be professionally and without cutting any corners. Fixes have always been permanent and new installations properly considered and fairly priced. Definitely would recommend this plumber for any work, from small issues to large projects.

Fantastic new bathroom created in my loft by Bourne Plumbing and Heating consisting of bath, shower, handbasin and WC plus all the necessary new pipework. All the work was carried out in a timely and professional manner. I am absolutely delighted with it and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Excellent work and competitive pricing on replacing basin taps. Anthony was knowledgeable, efficient, polite and tidy and completed the work to a high standard. Highly recommended

I have used Tony on many occasions and have found him to be very knowledgeable and professional. I contacted him as there was a hissing sound coming from the shower. This turned out as expected to be a leak in a concealed pipe which had been occurring for several months and this explained why there was never any hot water in the system! Tony located the problem but this meant taking up the shower, pipework and tiling as the walls and foundation were soaked through. The whole shower suite and all the tiling had to be replaced but this was a blessing in disguise as he also found other pipework that needed replacement which would have certainly caused problems in the near future. Tony was very innovative in redirecting the pipework instead of digging up the concrete floor which could have added thousands extra to the cost. He also put in access panels in case there were any problems in the future. I cannot fault him for his expertise and work ethos and he is a lovely guy even though he supports West Ham. He is an outstanding plumber and engineer and I personally consider him to be one of the best if not the best tradesman in the business.

Anthony and his team did a complete refurbishment of my bathroom, removing bath, toilet and basin+pedestal and old tiles and replacing with shower cubicle, toilet and basin+pedestal and re-tiling. Anthony gave useful advice about sourcing good quality materials. The work was completed on time and in accordance with the quotation, and I was kept informed at all stages. Additional work required was explained fully to me and extra costings agreed. The team were polite, friendly and kept disruption to a minimum. The work was carried out to a very high standard and I would definitely use them again without any hesitation.

Anthony came and advised me on the best way to address the problem and completed the work very efficiently and professionally. He was also very helpful in discussing other plumbing issues. He has completed work for me before and I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Anthony has done several jobs for me over the past 2 years, eg correcting another plumber's shoddy workmanship and fixing a leaking radiator. Last year he re-sited and installed a new Viessmann boiler, together with new pipework and soakaway, which I was very pleased with. The quote was accurately itemised and the work carried out to a very high standard. This was later followed by a power flush of the central heating system, all performed with great proficiency. He always arrives on time and leaves everything clean and tidy. Most recently I called him for a boiler service, which was carried out thoroughly and efficiently. Anthony is an extremely competent plumbing and heating engineer. A true professional. I would highly recommend him. And he also just happens to be a thoroughly nice guy.

We experineced a blocked kitchen drain and problems with the pvc pipework around the sink. I was recommended Anthony (Bourne Plumbing) by my next door neighbour. He was responsive to our phone call, asked me all the right questions and got me to send him photos of the problem so he could get the parts. He turned up on time with all the right parts and equipment and did the job with minimal fuss - and no mess. Spotless. And reasonable with pricing. He is our plumber for the future!!

They were recommended by our former plumber, who has retired. Had to replace the valve in the attic water tank. Came out on the same day as I called, which was fantastic. Anthony turned up on time, and called to say he was on his way from the previous job. He did the job quickly, showed me the part he had replaced, and was in and out in under an hour. I would definitely recommend the Company, and will definitely use them again for any plumbing jobs we need doing.

Such a brilliant service - the problem was resolved within 30 minutes and the charge was incredibly reasonable. Polite, efficient and will 100% be using again.

Anthony was very quick to respond to my gas leak. Just before Christmas. I really appreciated that he sorted it there and then so I could continue with my plans for Christmas.

My experience with Bourne Plumbing and heating couldn't have been better. The process was easy, efficient and the job was completed quickly to a very high standard. Very pleased with the result and the experience.

Anthony actually picks up the phone when you ring which is a nice change from some other traders. This was a relatively small job and he was able to fit me in quickly. Recommended.

I called Anthony re a small job which was required with little urgency. I was pleased that he could fit the job into his schedule the next day. He turned up as advised and soon completed the job with little fuss and no mess. A number of other tidying up other jobs were also completed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bourne Plumbing and Heating.

Bourne plumbing just wow. Arrived when stated to replace an old boiler with a Viessmann boiler. The attention to detail is incredible and where the work was carried out all the mess removed and a full clean undertaken. A full demonstration of the new controls was given and what to do in any common situation with the boiler. After the install had been done a professional welcome pack was issued which contained all the new details and user manuals. A very nice touch. Also means when the boiler is serviced next all details are at hand. Great professional workmanship all round and would recommend to anyone.

Initial phone call to arrange the service was promptly answered, once we arranged date & time that was it, the plumber arrived on time. All the maintenance kit & tools were carried in at the beginning none of this in & out of the building, dust sheets everywhere to protect the kitchen floor, no asking have you a bucket handy to drain water, which I've experienced before, as for the service all done swiftly, plumber certainly knew his way around the boiler, followed by cleaning, readings, tidy up, cup of tea thrown in along the way, the service book filled in, all done. I also regard value as not only the cost of a service but peace of mind especially for winter months as nobody wants to be without heating.

I had a very problematic toilet leak and Tony was able to sort it with ease and very quickly. We had an issue with space which we didn't think we could sort but Tony was able to give us the best solution. Very reliable and value for money. Highly recommended and loves a cup of tea.

Anthony has recently installed a new Viessmann boiler for us which included providing extra pipework. At the same time he carried out an extensive power flush of our central heating system and has now replaced the thermostatic valves on our radiators. A great advantage of having a new Viessmann boiler is that it comes with a 12-year warranty. Installing and insulating the extra pipework was quite complicated as it involved working in a very tight space in our loft. Throughout this work Anthony arrived punctually at the agreed time and on the agreed date. He carried out the work meticulously and professionally, and covered any area susceptible to dirt with dustsheets that he brought with him. He took great care to ensure that no water dripped or leaked when he was working on the piping and carrying out the power flush. At each stage of the work he carefully explained what he would be doing next. At the end of the installation he cleared everything up and left the house neat and tidy and without any mess. We can highly recommend Anthony if you need a professional plumber who knows what he is doing, gets on with the job without any fuss, tidies everything up, and - more generally - will live up to your expectations.

We have been using Bourne Plumbing for 10 years now and Anthony is truly first class. Always a reliable and professional service. Very highly recommended

Tony carried the annual boiler maintenance in this instance. He was efficient, polite and friendly. As always his work was to an excellent standard and he cleaned up afterwards. In the past he has solved minor plumbing problems and also carried out the boiler installation. No complaints, only praise.

We know Anthony from the time we were living in a rented flat in Ealing. We had a few drain blockages there and he had come to unblock them. Later when we moved to our home we had a similar drain block with our bathroom sink. Like previous instances, he unblocked it successfully. Recently we had a leak issue with the pipes underneath the kitchen sink. He replaced the pipes and the leak stopped. He also replaced a faulty washing machine inlet valve and replaced it with a new one. He is very professional, polite and helpful in examining and recommending different solutions to a problem. What impressed me the most about Anthony is his honesty. We had called him some months ago for some leak issues and he recommended us to try different ways to resolve the problems, for example, to get in touch with the company who did the job and ask them to replace the faulty part if it is within the warranty period and to pursue the contractor who did the faulty job and to be assertive with him to fix the issue. That was very nice of him to guide us in the right direction and not to take advantage of us. We really appreciate it.

Anthony had previously overhauled an existing sink tap during which he commented that the tap wasn’t very good quality. When the seal to the sink failed we phoned to ask for advice about getting a new one fitted. I told him what we wanted in a new tap and could he advise us. He made an appointment to come to look at it before which I emailed him to ask if he’d bring any suitable brochures. He arrived early and waited until we arrived back from a hospital appointment. He didn’t bring brochures but thoughtfully put 2 taps in his van which he thought would fit the bill. One was perfect and he said he would do it immediately if we wanted which he did and all was completed in just under an hour. The price was much as we expected and he sent an email with the cost the next day. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice the attached invoice with the bank payment details and I phoned his landline 3 times to leave a message to ask for them before ringing his mobile and speaking to him. He said his voicemail was useless and always use the Mobile and he told me where to find the bank details. But for that, the Customer service would have been 5 stars.

Very professional approach. On time, clean and efficient. Everything was explained along the way. Very neat and tidy, thoroughly recommend this company.

Anthony responded very promptly to communication re appointment and, as with previous work, fitted in the work at short notice. He was on time and did a very thorough and tidy job. Anthony is friendly, polite and reliable. I would use his services again and have no hesitation in recommending.

Bourne Plumbing delivered a highly professional outcome that exceeded my expectations across the board including a comprehensive solution to my problem. I would wholeheartedly recommend this company.

This was the second time that I have used Bourne Plumbing. The first occasion was May 2022 but I forgot to leave a review [apologies]. Last year involved a replacement flushing unit and replacement towel radiator heating element. This year also involved a replacement flushing unit. Anthony is reliable, efficient, courteous, works cleanly, orders spare parts as necessary and returns to complete works in as short a time as possible. He does not demand payment before work is started, and only sends an invoice via email with details of how to pay once work has been completed. His rates are reasonable. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Bourne Plumbing and will certainly use Anthony again for any work/problems in the future.

Excellent work. Very neat. Extremely competent. Punctual. Work carried out to a very high standard. Would definitely recommend.

I hired Anthony of Bourne Plumbing and Heating to install my new Viessmann central heating boiler. Anthony is my go-to plumber for any plumbing work, from minor maintenance to major installations such as this. The job was not straightforward as the new Viessmann boiler needed to be installed on an outside wall, unlike my previous 30 year old floor-standing model with a flue up the chimney. Water and gas pipes needed to be run through a wall to the new location. All this was done efficiently, with the minimum of fuss. Anthony works closely with Colin, a carpenter with decades of experience, who boxed in the exposed pipework, leaving an excellent cosmetic finish. He also created a custom-built cupboard to fill the void where the old boiler used to be. I recommend Bourne Plumbing and Heating for all your plumbing needs.

Only a small job - fitting a new kitchen tap unt - but carried out quickly and efficiently.

I found Anthony on Which? Trusted Traders when a leak under my bath needed to be fixed. He responded quickly, arrived on time and took care of everything efficiently. He repurposed part of an old tap so I didn't need to replace the set, saving me money. He also advised getting a botched radiator job fixed for free by the company responsible rather than me paying him to do it, which impressed me. Finally, I requested a separate invoice for the work covered by my home insurance, which he provided. The whole experience was reassuring and professional, which we all want when hiring tradespeople!

Have used multiple times for boiler replacement and other jobs, always friendly, efficient and tidy worker. Is always quick to respond and happy to recommend.

I think I’ve found a plumber I can trust. Based on his WHICH review, I booked Tony in for a couple of straight forward jobs (MegaFlow annual check and kitchen tap replacement) to check him out for a job I’ve been putting off, for far too long, for fear of consequences of the job going wrong and causing damage which would be extremely expensive to rectify. Long story short, he replaced the shower thermostatic cartridge, which was well and truly jammed, without causing any damage whatsoever to the fittings and surrounding tiles. Although he was confident he could do this job without damage, he did reassure me of the potential options. Relieved and happy customer!

Anthony supplied and fitted a new inlet valve to toilet cistern - which was overflowing/dripping into the overflow. We called on his mobile, described the problem, arranged a timeslot. Anthony arrived within timeslot, good communication on arrival - friendly and direct, covered shoes to avoid bringing in mud/marking flooring with his shoes, checked the problem, fixed the problem - did not make a mess /cleared up, checked the fix and answered questions. Overall just what you need when you have a problem - someone to turn up - on time - check fault, fix it, check the fix, clear up after themselves, good comms and bill sensibly for the work.

We have been using Bourne Plumbing since June 2021. This time we have a new Viessmann boiler installed. The job was completed on time and high standard. Anthony left my property clean and tidy without any mess. I have no hesitation in recommending Anthony of Bourne Plumbing and Heating.

I hired Anthony to fit a replacement for my toilet. He came to see the existing unit. He advised me what type of toilet to get and quickly responded with a quote. Once I agreed to the quote and purchased a new toilet we arranged a time (within a few days) for him to carry out the fitting which he completed on schedule, to a high standard. I subsequently used his services to fix a leak which he responded to quickly and efficiently.

Replaced old boiler and upgraded the pipework making access easier. Kept me informed throughout, and left house clean and tidy Would recommend

Anthony Bourne carried out a very difficult piece of work in an awkward space in a loft, fitting a pump to an old system. He was very clear in how he did it, as it needed quite a lot of enterprise to succeed in achieving the result.
