He has done quite a lot of work for me - put in a new boiler, cleaned out the central heating system, put a new valve on radiator in the bathroom. Very satisfactorily. He turns up on time. I've been using him for at least fifteen years.

Tony repaired a section of soilpipe that was leaking onto our flat roof. While he was here, we also asked him to remove an old fluepipe from the wall above the flat roof and to replace a leaking garden tap with a new one. Tony was very professional and a pleasure to deal with. He carried out the work quickly and effectively, implementing a better solution for the soilpipe than had been in place previously. We would happily use his services again.

He was recommend by a friend, and although the jobs were outside of his usual working area he was happy to travel. I have several properties so have had a fair bit of work for him including the installation of a new gas boiler, repairs to shower and bath taps plus servicing of boilers and other gas units including fires. I have always found his work of a high standard, he clears up afterwards and arrives when you expect him to. Highly recommended

Extremely helpful and competent plumber - put right several seized up stopcocks, replacing them with efficient modern fixtures. Also cut out and replaced a leaking length of piping. Cleared up nicely afterwards too. Seemed a little expensive - but I have no benchmark for what plumbers cost these days. Well worth it for the peace of mind of a job well done.

Called Tony late afternoon - he was able to come round that evening which suited my availability. He was punctual and got the job done quickly and efficiently (a leaking tap). He explained what he was doing and alerted us to the fact that because of the design of the tap the same problem was likely to happen again. Would use him again and have recommended him to friends.

Tony was very efficient at replacing the sink waste and making alterations to secure the kitchen mixer tap. He didn't replace an outside tas as requested because I thought it was broken, but instead tightened it which did the job. I would definitely call him again.

Tony Bourne recently replaced our 25 year old CH boiler. He and his colleague arrived punctually and worked almost non-stop until 7.0p.m. the first day and completed the job the following day, including force flushing the system, installing new thermostat, thermionic valve, new header tank etc. The work was carried out with the minimum of disruption aad everything left clean & tidy afterwards. A nice touch was the loan of a pair of electric radiators, delivered the day the boiler failed. We found him under "Plumbers" but I feel he should also be listed here. Highly Recommended.

He solved several minor plumbing problems with no trouble and left the areas clean and tidy. In terms of value for money I do not know what the 'going rate' for these jobs is, but am sure it was worth the charge in terms of confidence inthe tasks having been done properly. He gave me good advice and has left me able to turn off independent areas of my plumbing for future convenience. I would thoroughly recommend his work.

As a first job for me Tony Bourne carried out an overdue service of my CH system including partly dismantling the boiler, replacing a radiator, changing defective valves etc, and during a further visit using his 'Power Flush' equipment to flush out sludge in the system. He arrived on time and worked efficiently, cleanly and quietly, keeping me informed of what he was doing. I found it difficult to get an accurate alternative quote but I am happy with his charges for the good service he provided.

The job took a day and a half with minimum disruption to me, the flat was always left clean, he showed up when he said he was going to show up, he's even mastered the art of email which is more than I can say for some other tradesmen I've had to deal with! I'd thoroughly recommend him for any of your heating installations.

Tony had a done a excellent job of a minor piece of work for us earlier - his punctuality, refined workmanship, adherence to details and honest attitude made us approach him again for this work. Once again all the above specific qualities shone through his work and he got the job accompolished in a very efficient and timely manner and the amont of sludge flushed out of the system was massive ! couldn't actually believe it. Will make use of his service again if need be (hope everything keeps chugging along meanwhile..)

Anthony Sawczuk (Bourne plumbing & heating) replaced my old system boiler with a new combi Viessmann boiler. He did an excellent job, was very professional throughout and completed the whole job in 3 days. He also lent us some electric heaters whilst our old boiler was out of service. He recommended the Viessmann boiler, I hadn't heard of them but after talking to Anthony and doing my own research I agreed with his verdict; working very well so far and has better warranties than other brands I knew of. Overall, I highly recommend Anthony's work.æ

Tony Bourne and his colleague installed a new Viessmann boiler with a 5 year guarantee, to replace an old and faulty boiler. A new kitchen is being installed and all Gas and Water pipework and Drainage needed to be Re-routed. Removal of all redundant pipe work and loft tanks. Tony and Co conducted themselves in a most professional and courteous manner at all times. A high degree of skill and competency was displayed throughout. They turned up on time as promised. We were most impressed with his service. We will be using Tony again when we have our Bathroom renovated in the new year.

Tony installed a new viessmann boiler including a full system flush. Tony's service was prompt, professional and came in slightly under budget. I'd never heard of a viessman boiler before Tony recommended it, but I'm very pleased with the boiler as it is compact, efficient and very quiet. Tony displayed an excellent level of customer service, he explained all the costs in detail and left my home clean and tidy. I highly recommnend Bourne plumbing and viessmann boilers.

I had another trader (recommended by a friend) come in to do a service on a boiler and it was disappointing - a leak was not detected (to add insult to injury it then cost a fortune for a simple bracket to be replaced). I turned to Which?Local and found Tony Bourne listed - the prompt service was very welcome (he came out within a couple of hours). The fix was applied on the spot and I do not think that the cost was that prohibitive given the peace of mind that I got (and I think that these services are generally expensive). At least I can now trust someone to do the job properly. Highly recommended and will use Tony's services again I am sure.

When our 15+ years old boiler died he even lent us a number of heaters to keep us going.

Our central heating system required a powerflush to clear the accumulated sludge built up over the years, which had led to one radiator being almost completely "cold", with "cold spots" on one or two other radiators. We found Anthony's business listed in Which? Local, and made the call. Anthony responded quickly, giving us a detailed estimate of what was required. Although not the cheapest quote, it proved to be good value for money. A date was agreed to commence the work, which initially was to introduce chemicals into the system to loosen the sludge, prior to it being flushed out of the system. When the powerflush itself was carried out, it was done professionally and efficiently, with minor disruption and mess. I would have no hesitation in using Anthony's company again for any future plumbing needs.

Our ageing boiler broke down on Christmas Day and I called Tony on Boxing Day. He came round pretty quickly and got it running again - though this could only be a temporary repair. This month he has installed a new Viessman boiler, flushed out the radiators, installed new thermostats, checked existing pipework and replaced a piece which was too narrow. As many reviewers have said, Tony is prompt, efficient, tidy, and knows his stuff. We are very happy with the new boiler and would certainly recommend him to others.

We are landlords based in Devon and contacted Bourne Plumbers in London. They very efficiently collected keys for the flat and returned them. They serviced the boiler and did a gas safety check and issued the certificates. They also changed a valve on a leaking radiator and unblocked the drain in the bath. They kept us up to date by phone or email and went to the property when they said they would. I would reccomend them highly and will use them again when we need to.
