Plumbing - great service

I've used HeatCo for a number of years now and have nothing but praise for them. Recently two of my toilets broke and Joe managed to source the difficult to find replacement parts, have the couriered over and made sure I had functioning loos by the weekend! Very much appreciated. HeatCo staff are always friendly, professional and courteous. They always turn up as expected and I trust the advice they give (the online booking system is great!). To be honest HeatCo have got me out of a plumbing pickle several times, for which I'm very grateful. Over the past few years they have deal with blocked showers, leaking taps and radiators, flush issues, replaced a boiler, shower temperature problems, and much more. It's very reassuring to have their number in my phone.

Loud banging noise on new boiler

I contacted Joe Waller on Sat 20 Jan as every time the boiler came on there was a banging noise - so loud that it woke me up in the middle of the night and I was afraid the whole thing would blow up so was without heating Sat and Sun. Joe was coming to the UK on Sunday and came round at lunchtime as arranged. He tested the boiler - all ok - unfortunately the banging/vibrating didn't happen whilst he was here. He thought it might be a faulty radiator valve as and assured me that the boiler wouldn't blow up - so the heating went back on. The banging occurred 3 times further and I identified which radiator valve was faulty. Job sorted by Tues late morning. Excellent service from a hard working and knowledgable individual

We have used HeatCo many times over the last 4 years from non-urgent plumbing/heating problems e.g. leaky tap to urgent problems such as an over flowing water tank in the loft. Joe and the team have always been responsive, friendly and efficient and dealt with problems, especially emergencies, speedily. They are also helpful at giving advice and don't sell you what you don't need! The HeatClub (paying a monthly subscription) is great and worth having for all the odd plumbing jobs that crop and includes a free boiler service annually. Thanks to Joe, Darren and the team!

I called Shaun out through HeatCo's Heat Club scheme, which gives us on-call access to a plumber and heating heating engineer whenever we need it for a monthly fee. It's an excellent deal and meant that when I needed help getting the side panel off the bath, I could book an appointment with HeatCo and Shaun arrived, bang on time, and quickly sorted out our problem. He was friendly and very helpful. Cheers, Shaun. Highly recommended.

Shaun fitted the side back on our bath after the Aqualisa engineer had replaced our shower pump. It was an awkward job but he got it done and left everything looking as good as new. Great job!

He was round on time, after checking the boiler I was pleased with the speed that my boiler was fixed and the friendly and reasonably priced service I received.

Replacement of leaking boiler in an old vented system with a Greenstar combi boiler. Heatco we're always on time for each appointment ( note the booking system doesn't send an appointment reminder, so note or screen-shot your time from the booking page ) Joe and Darren worked professionally and efficiently to resolve our heating issues and fit the new system. They were both very pleasant to work with and took time to listen and discuss issues and solutions. When the old boiler gave-up suddenly, changing the urgency of the job, they were able to change plans and complete the job sooner than originally expected.

We use HeatCo's HeatClub service which gives us a plumber / heating engineer on call and free boiler services. Darren did our annual boiler service yesterday and was great, as always. He arrived on time, carried out the service with minimum disruption for us, and sent us the service certificate immediately. A great service that we can rely on. Many thanks, once again!

I am blown away by the service provided by Heatco. I was able to go onto their website and book an appointment online. Darren came at the allotted time and I had received my gas certificate by the time he had left. No chasing! It's a revelation!

Quality service at a reasonable price. I was able to get an appointment to service my boiler and to investigate a radiator that had stopped working within a couple of days. Darren arrived on time, diagnosed the radiator problem quickly, and repaired there and then using spares from his van. The boiler was serviced efficiently, the certificate & invoice issued right away. A really good experience, would definitely use again.

Although the engineer was unable to arrive at the appointed time he kept us informed and provided an alternative time acceptable to both of us. He then arrived on time and carried out the work efficiently and within reasonable cost and time

I had originally asked them to come out and check the pressure valve on my boiler, which turned out to be fine, just a bit stiff. While Darren was here he had a look at another - quick - job I needed doing (adjusting the positioning of some pipes), and he came back the next day and did it very well and efficiently.

Joe and the team from Heat Co. Installed a new boiler and hot water tank for us. Removing and relocating both the boiler from the kitchen, and the hot water tank from the landing cupboard up into the loft. This was a complicated job which included running a new gas pipe to the loft, but the Heat Co. Team took it all in their stride. The install went smoothly, the team was extremely professional and tidy, and they went above and beyond what they had quoted to ensure we had hot water in the shotest time possible. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

I've been a member of Heatco's Heat Club for several years. Joe, Darren and other team members are knowledgeable and responsive. The service provided is superior to the British Gas service contract I used to have. Recently, Heatco installed a 'Wunda' smart heating system for me. Despite never previously installing this manufacturer's system, the work was carried out efficiently. Everything worked perfectly from the outset and still does. Incidentally, if anyone's considering smart controls, I thoroughly recommend Wunda (a British company). Their system is intuitive and easy to use with greater flexibility than other providers such as Hive & Google Nest.
