Gary was brilliant from his first arrival for the heat loss survey, was honest and thorough with his work. The teams he used for plumbing (Ross, Luke & Alfie) and electrical (Ryan) work were tidy, professional and just an absolute joy to have around the house. Truly outstanding work from them all. Currently waiting to see how the Air Source Heat Pump handles the winter months but it looks very smart and had no issues with the hot water so far. We're extremely happy.

I have been using Greenables for a number of years and have found Gary and his team to be professional, helpful and quick to respond. They do my annual RHI/HETAS approved service every year and send out replacement parts for next day delivery when required. Highly recommend.

Our pellet boiler has been serviced and maintained by Gary for 3 years. We now purchase pellets from Greenables. I have been very impressed with the knowledge and ability to solve inherited problems with the original installation of our biomass boiler which was not installed by Gary. With his assistance the boiler works as it should. Today we had an issue with the flue overheating, after 3 attempts to fix the problem using the manual for guidance I realised it required an engineer. I called Gary at 9am, he was with us at 10.30 ish and a new sensor was fitted tested and the boiler was fine tuned by 12.30. What a fantastic response and proffesional repair. It was fortunate that Gary was finishing a job nearby which helped but even so, impressive. The icing on the cake so to speak, the invoice arrives with a 50% discount for being a loyal customer. I cannot overstate the proffessional service Greenables offer us and have no hesitation in awarding maximum stars. Thank you Gary and the team.

I’ve had a garden building installed at the bottom of my garden and decided to have a wood burning stove installed. I found the process from start to finish really easy. Starting with dealing with Marie in the office, to installation with the on site team. Greenables provided and installed the stove, hearth and flue system. Gary and Chris worked quickly and efficiently, keeping the work space very clean and tidy. I’m so pleased with the wood burner and can’t waiting for the cold evenings to roll in. I would definitely recommend Greenables.

Solar Thermal Panels - Ask someone else - not recommended - over 8 months since their visit and still waiting for a quote!
Contacted the company in January 2023 looking for a repair/replacement of a damaged solar thermal panel. Representatives visited the house, to see the damaged panel on 31st January and asked me to supply further details of the system which I did by email. There then followed a series of email exchanges with me trying to get a quote from them. Trader has never been clear about what would be required including at one stage saying the whole solar system would need to be replace - just because of 1 broken solar thermal panel? This was queried by me and no explanation was really provided by the company - saying ‘the supplier recommended everything was replaced’? Nevertheless in March they said it would take up to 6 weeks to provide a quote. It’s now September and despite several chasers being sent it has not provided a response or quote from the company.

Good morning We have found an issue with quotes being sent out. They have been going to the customers spam. We have now started following up with an email if we have not heard from the customer. We are very sorry for the inconvenience it has caused you.

I have now used this company to look after our biomass central heating system for more than seven years. Members of the team have been involved in both routine servicing and emergency work and when an urgent response has been required, action has been impressive. As a recent example, the heat store plumbing developed a leak over the weekend. This was first noticed at 8.00 am on Sunday. I phoned Gary at 9.30 am and the plumber was on site midday on Monday. The faulty valve connection was replaced within the hour. I have no hesitation in recommending Gary and his team.

After six or seven years with another company they ceased offering biomass servicing We were very fortunate to find Greenables as a replacement Gary arrived on Monday for our first annual service of our Biotech boiler by Greenables and immediately impressed He did a very thorough job - including aspects such as emptying the pellet hopper and sweeping the flue, that were not done during our previous services. He also left the site even cleaner and tidier than when he arrived and disposed of the ash onto our flower beds as requested And all for a very reasonable price especially given his personable manner and overall quality of service.

Initially came to do a full service on my solar panels system and had to come back the following week to replace the expansion vessel. Both were very professional and polite. I was working from my home office during both visits, they were very unobtrusive so I was able to carry on as normal, taking meetings etc. Service was easy to book, I recommend getting them booked in early as they're very busy.

Gary has been looking after our biomass red compact 35 for 6 years His knowledge is both excellent and extensive Our boiler is somewhat sensitive and can be a bit temperamental at times, when it is playing up I've called Gary who invariably knows exactly what the issue is and how to tell me to fix it! His servicing is efficient, tidy and reliable always leaving the boiler & area cleaner than it was! Gary's advice on preventative measures and set up to get the most out of the system is also extensive and spot on I have no hesitation in both continuing to use Greenables and recommend their Services.

This was the latest in a series of annual service visits carried out by Greenables for our Janfire wood-pellet boiler. The team were polite, friendly, and punctual. They did a thorough job, leaving everything clean and tidy afterwards. They took the time for a helpful discussion on technical points relating to the boiler, on wood-pellets as a fuel, and on the current situation regarding renewable energy. We would not hesitate to recommend Greenables to others.

Gary came to service our pellet boiler and also our solar thermal system. The work was first class, everything was left neat and tidy and we are very pleased. Great communications and super helpful. It was very interesting talking through a number of improvements we could make to both systems and it is clear that he really knows his trade. He was also very knowledgeable about Air Source Heat Pumps - something we are interested in exploring for the future. Very friendly, arrived spot on time and reasonable charges. We are looking forward to Gary coming back to carry out a number of improvements. Cannot recommend him highly enough.

He is fast, efficient ,and very knowledgable. We have a commercial system and perhaps what we value most is his rapid response to a crisis. He goes to huge efforts to troubleshoot problems over the phone but is ready to make time to fix an urgent problem. He is our 4th emergency service!

I called Gary on a recommendation after our boiler broke down. Initially, he spent a considerable time on the phone running through a list of possible issues that may enable me to sort it myself, and in the process do himself out of a job, which immediately made me realise he was a very decent guy. Despite being extremely busy he got out to us quickly and did an incredibly thorough job, whilst explaining various things and giving advice on both the boiler as well as on other energy options. I believe we have chanced upon a very knowledgeable, efficient and reliable person, which given the unreliable nature to date of our setup gives us huge peace of mind.

Gary has been servicing our Extraflame for six or seven years, he is always tidy and friendly. We have followed his advice on upgrades to our system and have just had the work carried out. The work is extremely tidy and was carried out by his team over two days and we are happy to report all is running far smother than before. The work involved, installing a buffer tank with associated plumbing. I would point out the issues we have suffered, were caused by the original installer, who has since gone bankrupt. Nothing to to with Greenables, who have gone that extra mile to sort our problems out.
