Replacement of central heating boiler by CHS Glasgow
We initially asked Darren of CHS Glasgow to provide us with a second opinion after our boiler had started to make terrible screeching noises and 2 engineers from our usual maintenance firm had failed to give us a satisfactory explanation of the problem. Darren attended promptly, took time to examine the heating system and to explain that the excessive noise related to the heat exchanger in the boiler. As our system was over 23 years old, we decided to have a new boiler installed along with the cleaning of the system and the installation of radiator valves. All this was carried out expeditiously, in a clean and tidy manner, and at reasonable cost and we now have a lovely warm house with a much more efficient system than previously.

Impeccable work and great advice!
Darren and Willie at CHS supplied and installed a new Valiant boiler, radiators, piping and a stock cock for me. Their work was impeccable. Really high standard and great advice on how to get the best out of a heating system, as well as regular servicing. Completely trustworthy and a pleasure to have in my home. Adaptable to your needs. Wouldn’t hesitate to use CHS again!

A really excellent experience
Getting hold of a reliable, competent trade professional can be a challenging experience. Many don't return calls or fail to keep an appointment; misdiagnose faults; charge an arm and a leg. Dealing with Darren was a breath of fresh air. What looked like a complicated leak repair (and others might have made it very complicated) was carried out quickly and at a more than fair price. Plus, he's a really pleasant guy with a totally professional attitude. Overall, couldn't be more impressed.

Excellent
Darren responded quickly to my problem of a leaking pipe causing water to drip through ceiling. A previous plumber failed miserably to diagnose the problem. Darren methodically worked out the source of the problem hidden in the eaves of the house and carried out the required repair. I can not recommend him too highly for his speed of response, politeness and clean work

A true hero in the middle of a pandemic
To me all heroes come in different ways and today we met ours after our shower leaking again I thought it would be impossible to get a plumber out and if did would wait a while and pay a fortune. Well with a very happy heart we found our hero today Darren of CHS Glasgow after his wife responded to our post in Facebook yesterday he phoned came round all PPE protected and fixed the problem within seconds and also refitted our lights in the kitchen we took out as was leaking into lights. I cannot praise him enough and even more social distanced he took time to chat away to us! What did it cost nothing he said to pay it forward on this occasion as only needed resealing and as big g at 70 odd cannot get out and I am self-isolating due to high-risk group well we did insist in giving him something for his children which still took a lot of enforcing so to summarise if you ever need a plumber or bathroom central heating installed please go to Darren website attached he certainly put a spring in our steps today his chat alone was worth millions !!! Darren a true hero 🦸♀️

Quick, courteous and professional.
Darren responded to my message immediately, and was at my house within the hour to get my boiler back up and running. He also gave me some great advice about how to upgrade my central heating, and answered some questions I had about the heating setup in my new house. Darren is very professional and knowledgeable, and extremely pleasant and courteous. I will definitely call CHS next time we need some work done.

Repair to faulty Worcester Bosch boiler
I looked to Which Trusted Traders to find a reliable boiler engineer to resolve some issues with my 7-year-old Worcester Bosch boiler. I decided to go with CHS Glasgow having checked that they are authorised Worcester Bosch installers (via the WB website). Darren of CHS was able to call at my house that day (donning his disposable shoe covers as he entered). He recommended that a deep clean of the heat exchanger on the boiler was needed. Once he had removed the panel to the heat exchanger this confirmed that it had not been cleaned in some years and that the accumulated deposits were impacting on its performance. He also (at my request) changed the electrodes and also undertook a number of safety checks. Darren thought the issues with the boiler were resolved when he left but advised me to contact him if there was a problem. Unfortunately, the boiler returned to fault mode later that day. Darren returned within an hour of re-contacting him. He then made several calls to the Worcester Bosch trade helpline to discuss the issue. Further adjustments were made. The subsequent visit was at no extra cost to me. It was clear that he was determined to get to the bottom of the issue and ensure that I was fully satisfied with his work. Darren was personable and polite throughout his visits and fully respected my property and its cleanliness. I would readily recommend Darren to friends looking for a reliable gas engineer. He truly deserves to be a 5 star Which Trusted Trader.

Great work in bathroom and kitchen
Darren quickly diagnosed an issue with a leaking bath plughole, before it became a major issue. This was replaced, and I was shown the difference between the work before and what was put in. Darren then tested the new plughole which gave me peace of mind that the issue had been resolved. He also fitted a new kitchen tap after consulting me on replacements. The work was excellent, efficient and left very tidy. Great to work with and I'd highly recommend!

Helpful and reliable
We had a small boiler issue which turned into a large boiler issue and Darren was very helpful and provided excellent advice. His work was excellent and to a high standard, even working long hours and coming at weekends to assist. He kept us fully informed throughout and was always available post installation with and help and advice that we required. We have since recommended Darren to others and would do so again without a doubt. Excellent friendly service.

Passionate about boilers..and that's a good thing.
Contacted Darren by email for a quote for boiler servicing. Prompt reply with the information. Went so far as to point out any extra charges if the boiler required more extensive work. Date and time were swiftly agreed. Darren showed up on time. Did the work quickly and neatly, in line with the indicated cost. He gave an indication of the condition of the boiler (good). He was also able to provide some information on replacing the boiler (which I asked for). Darren was personable and professional throughout. Truly someone who is passionate about his profession, something that is often said but rarely true. One had the sense that this was a company that could be relied on to get it right first time but, if not, would make best efforts to attend to any problems. Darren was able to take payment on the spot using his smartphone and a portable card reader. The receipt of payment pinged into my email before I'd taken my card out. Overall CHS gives the sense of being an entirely professional, highly efficient and customer-focussed outfit. I have already recommended them to a family member who was looking for someone to repair their boiler when the company that had originally installed it three years ago failed to do the right thing.

Amazing service for emergency callout
We had a large water leak from a bathroom shower on a Sunday evening and we called CHS and spoke to Darren who was just about to leave for holiday but sensed the panic in my voice and very kindly came straight away. Darren was able to stop the leak and solve our problem. Darren communicated well what he was going to do prior to starting any work and was very informative about what was the cause of our issue. I would 100% recommend CHS to anyone looking for central heating or plumbing services.

Boiler Install
CHS Glasgow recently installed a new Vaillant Boiler for us. The works were carried out whilst we were on holiday and CHS carried out the works to a high standard whilst being respectful of our property. After initial discussions it was agreed a more preferable position for the boiler would be in the loft as oppose to its original location in the kitchen. CHS completed the move making good all openings and existing features leaving our house clean, tidy and as if the boiler was always in the loft. As before CHS were respectful of our property and the neighbours commented on their professional manner. Updates were sent to us at various points of the install to keep us abreast of the works. Boiler works like a dream and the aftercare so far form CHS has been great.

Boiler Repair - Exceptional Service / Quick Response
Following ongoing issues with my existing provider for boiler repair services, I decided to contact CHS Glasgow Ltd, an independent local business, in a bid to expedite the process, due to the urgent nature of the problem and the obtuse response of my so called existing 'expert'. Darren was not only able to visit my property within 12 hours of request, he was quick to evaluate the problem and provide various options to fix the issue. I was overwhelmed with his desire to get to the route cause of the problem and he displayed professionalism and empathy throughout. What truly stands out about Darren, is he offers a holistic approach, where he understands the mechanics of the boiler system, plumbing and house type to ensure he provides the best solution for each customer. Within an hour, the ongoing leak was fixed, the system was drained and the water damage into my spare bedroom had subsided. I would estimate CHS has saved me several hundred pounds through tackling the issue so much quicker than my existing provider could have done. I was delighted to find he was also able to offer a 'CHS boiler maintenance' package 25% cheaper than my existing provider, which I signed up for without hesitation! Darren is one of the best local tradesman I have used and I would absolutely recommend CHS to anyone who has a similar issue if you want someone who really cares and can cut to the chase.

Flat Rennovation
Darren helped us with all the plumbing elements of our flat renovation. We were so happy with the service. After being advised by another company we needed a new boiler, Darren completed a service and advised we would get longer out of it. He renewed all our pipework under the floorboards and installed a condensate pipe so we could put our hardwood floor down and when the boiler eventually goes we just need to do a replacement with no disruption to the rest of the flat! He did an amazing job of our bathroom and kitchen. Best of all he sorted out all our radiators. I have never lived in a warmer tenement! Really nice guy to have around, would highly recommend!

Heating repair
We had a hole in one of our underfloor radiator pipes from a nail. This had caused a leak and we'd been without heating as a result. Darren from CHS Glasgow was able to fit us in that week and came out to fix the pipe. First impressions were very good, he was friendly and polite and was diligent about wearing overshoes to protect our home and a new carpet from his workboots. He confirmed where the leak was and checked other areas of the pipework and was able to carry out the repair quite quickly. He then took the time to check the boiler system was at the right water pressure and temperatures when we turned everything back on. He also checked the radiators around the pipe and bled some of them and replaced a faulty valve on one that he spotted from his checks. Overall he carried out a very thorough job and we felt that his gave it detailed attention even though it was a fairly small repair. We're very happy with the standard of work done and the friendly service. We would definitely recommend him to others.
