Big job. Lots of plumbing (new boiler), electrics (underfloor heating), brickwork, new windows and door, plastering, flooring, tiling etc. etc. etc. Very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and adaptable. Hard working and basically good at what they do. We're very pleased with the results and would not hesitate to recommend them.

I called Farthings plumbers because the people that owned the house before me had some Farthings literature so I decided to call. The job was to fit a kitchen sink. The representative arrived and I showed him the sink which we took out of the box and he advised it would be no more than £80 + VAT which I thought was reasonable for providing a labour only service and gave him the go ahead The fitter arrived, did the job in 3 hours or so and left. A few days later, I received an invoice for £218.70. I called Farthings 4 times and someone said they'd get back to me but never did. I then eventually did get a call and the lady on the phone said she would send me a revised invoice. I received this and this was £188.70, a reduction because the fitter was waiting for materials or something. I have now written back disputing this and asking for a revised bill of £80 + vat. The letter that I received had no apology at all which was disappointing considering the time I have spent dealing with this. The sink was fitted adequately, however the fitter did forget to switch the tap isolator to the on position and I had to call him from the van, just as he was leaving to sort this out which he did. Furthermore, the blanking disc on the sink was not tightened properly and this is something I had to do myself.

The company's tradesmen were prompt, courteous & worked well. Gave helpful information before leaving. Cleaned up thoroughly when the installations were completed. Would certainly recommend them.

A reliable company who delivers what they say. They complete the work in the time it takes to do a good job - not in the shortest time possible. Able to ask questions, they explained the new boiler etc. well and took time to set it up and show how the controls worked etc.

Thank you very much Mel. Apologies for the delayed timescale, we do try out hardest to ensure work is carried out within a quick timescale, however this is not always possible. We do hope to hear from you again!

Used Farthings (again) for a boiler change. Turned up on time and did the job without fuss or hassle. Employs excellent tradesman. Quote was competitive. An efficient organisation, would use again.
