Devine Plumbing and Heating Services Ltd

Ian Devine replaced our 19 year old CH gas boiler. He worked in a tidy manner - and was proud of his work, wanting to get everything right

Ian at least 7 years ago helped repair my shower. Since then he has put in a central heating system as I had electric storage heaters. Serviced the boiler each year, and last week after ordering a part for my gas fire got the part fitted and working. The shower touch wood is working fine. Happy with all his work and gets back to me when I ring him.

For the last two years we have used this company for all our plumbing needs, including fitting a new boiler system and a complete bathroom renovation amongst other small jobs. They provide an unbeatable friendly service, and are always happy to help. Ian helped us completely transform our small bathroom based on a small rough sketch I had made. He worked with us to maximise the space and the results are beautiful, still looking brand new eighteen months on. Thankfully Ian himself organised an electrician and a masterful tiler to help him complete the job, which saved us the hassle of organising three different traders. We couldn’t recommend Devine plumbing highly enough.

Can't say enough good things about Ian. He's fitted us a new boiler and 1st fixed our bathroom - both to a really high standard. Very reliable and honest and goes the extra mile. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Since moving to Manchester we've used Ian a few times and will always contact him when we need a plumber. He's sorted an absolute mess of pipes accumulated over 70 years, sorted radiators, fixed stoptaps, fitted toilets...all the good stuff. Great guy. Likes his coffee white with no sugar.

Ian first came to our property in September last year. Since that point he has removed our old heating system, removed old and disused piping, installed a new boiler and new heating system as well as installing new radiators in most rooms of the house. He has also plumbed in a new water connection for our washing machine as well as removing old waste pipe and installing a new plastic one. His work has been extensive and done to a high standard, if any problems arose with our house he quickly and calmly resolved them. He has always been honest with me and my partner and done whatever we have asked of him and done so to a high quality finish. We would recommend him to all our friends in a heartbeat, he has given us so many tips on how to take care of our boiler and our new system he has installed. His quotes are fair and you are paying for a master of his craft. If you want the job done properly he is your tradesman. He also likes coffee with a bit of milk in. Thanks for everything Ian.

Ian gave me some advice to minimize the damage in case the vertical radiator came off the wall until he could get there. Unfortunately because of the work done by another plumber it made his job more difficult but he stuck to his quote and stayed late to complete the job. He came back at a later date after repairs to the interior wall hade been completed and replaced the vertical radiator. A very pleasant, accommodating and tidy worker.

Ian Devine was recommended by a friend when I discovered a minor leak underneath the kitchen sink; something he fixed most satisfactorily. Some three years down the line, and just before this Bank Holiday, I had a major pipe burst behind the boiler on the ground floor quite late in the evening - water everywhere about an inch deep. I rang and he came round! I hadn’t really thought he would even answer the phone seeing it was ‘out of hours’ and was contemplating ringing the emergency services. He was unbelievably calm and professional in spite of the chaos he was presented with: stopping the water cascading, immobilising the gas and double checking all was safe. He was up front about when he would be available to undertake the necessary repairs due to work promised elsewhere, and then completed it within the promised time frame working round my child care commitments. He has replaced the wrecked boiler, removed the ancient water tank in the loft (an exceedingly old system which had been giving me nightmares for some time) and fitted a new boiler in an altogether more suitable area in the house. He also replaced radiators which were well past their sell by date. Very impressed with Devine Plumbing & Heating Services not only for the professional competence, fair price and guaranteed work but for the care and attention given to carrying it out. And eternally grateful for the initial ‘rescue’ response.

Ian ran a gas line for me which can be used for a gas fire. He was quick to respond to me, came round to give a quote the next day and then did the work the following day. He was friendly and helpful, even giving me advice on my boiler too! He was thorough in his work and left everything tidy at the end.

I'm very happy with the work Ian has done for me, he was able to schedule me in for the following day to complete two gas safety checks, despite having to change vehicles even to get to mine on the day and all for a very reasonable price. He arrived promptly and completed the work very thoroughly taking time to ensure I was aware of any issues and potential issues that could crop up. He clearly knows what he is talking about! Also, at the first property the gas safety shutoff tap was very stiff so he organised Transco to sort it out who were able to replace the valve within an hour on the same day free of charge. Thank you Ian - five stars, would recommend! Greg
