We purchased a new boiler from Bumford's 15 years ago, since when it has been serviced annually under contract. This year again Andy attended and completed the work quickly and efficiently. When arranging the service I also appreciated by Alex's impartial advice about flushing the system, ie without trying simply to sell me additional work.

So helpful
I rang Bumfords asking for help with an existing underfloor heating thermostat. Having been let down by the electrician who replaced the thermostat (he said he did not know how to set it up) I contacted Bumfords and spoke to Alex. On his advice I sent photos of the relevant parts and Alex contacted the manufacturer on my behalf. The result was a phone call from the manufacturer to talk me through the set up ... no problems! Very grateful to Bumfords who definitely put the needs of this customer first.

New boiler fitted by Bumfords. Detailed work plan and costing given to us prior to work being carried out. Work done promptly and as agreed. All Bumfords staff were friendly, professional, reliable and helpful. Made sure we knew we can contact them if we have any questions at all. Bumfords are very efficient and give excellent service to customers.

Bumfords have just replaced our old oil boiler with a gas combi boiler and everything went perfectly. Alex guided us through arranging for a gas supply and meter, and then the boiler was replaced, the hot water cylinder and tanks in the loft removed, and they arranged for our oil tank to be drained and safely removed by a specialist firm. The engineers, Matt and Keith, were excellent, completing the installation more quickly and with far less disruption than we expected. There was no mess at all. We wish we had this done years ago ! Everything was done on time and for the agreed quote.
