James Rae Heating and Boiler work - 100% recommended!
I have used James Rae Heating and Plumbing at least a dozen times for residential work over the last couple of years on several boiling and heating systems, along with radiator repairs and a new boiler installation. Some of this work has been planned, and others on an emergency basis. James is a courteous, pleasant tradesman who always cleans up after himself leaving no mess. His work is first class and is one of the most reliable workmen I have encountered. Nothing is too much trouble for him and he has a nice easy-going nature. I would struggle to find another professional like him and hope I never have to. Would recommend him 100% for any heating or boiler work.

Excellent service
We have used James for a variety of heating and plumbing repairs over recent years and always found his services to be excellent. We operate a rental business and its important to have a reliable, cost effective, first time fix.....and we get this from James.

A worthwhile find
James Rae is a responsive, qualified and trustworthy contractor. His work is always carried out in a professional, clean and tidy manner, with the minimum of fuss. James has installed my central heating boiler and provides annual maintenance. He has also installed my dishwasher and washing machine, as well as plumbing upgrades - again with the minimum of fuss and entirely to my satisfaction. I would have no hesitation in recommending him, as I have done on many occasions and all with positive feedback.

trustworthy
James gave me a quote to supply and fit a new flu to my Vokera boiler. He gave me a time of arrival which meant I was not sitting in all day. He arrived on time carried out the work and cleaned up after himself. He then emailed me an invoice.

Good local Plumber and heating engineer
James fitted a new boiler for us. After having done extensive research we had decided on the boiler to suit our needs. James arrived on time to both quote and fit the job. Advised where pipework would need changed or upgraded. Gave honest advice on filtering and service requirements. Work was carried out to a good standard and on time.

Very Professional and Reliable
James has just completed the installation of a replacement gas boiler in a slightly different location thereby involving plumbing alterations. James arrived bang on time to provide a quotation and also on both days it took to complete the work. In addition he sorted out some other long standing plumbing problems associated with other aspects of the central heating system. All work was executed in a very professional and tidy manner. James was also very helpful in giving advice on how technical aspects of the planning of the alterations could be improved. I am very pleased with the outcome of James’ work and would thoroughly recommend him to any new customers!

Friendly and effective service
This is the second time that James has serviced our boiler and I would recommend him. He is friendly, turns up at the agreed time, carries out the work promptly, and leaves the place tidy. Reasonably priced too.

Great work, good guy
As you have seen from other reviews, with James you are seeing someone who arrives on time, does the job and leaves no mess. I thoroughly recommend him for any heating jobs you may have. His pricing is fair and direct to him- it doesn’t pass through an office full of suits taking a cut which is why it is so fair. And, more importantly, he’s a happy chappy.

Reliable, friendly and professional
We've asked James to service our gas fire and boiler for the 2nd time now and plan to continue using his service in future. There's not a great deal to say; he arrived in good time, completed the work leaving everything clean and tidy, and gave some good advice on placement of our CO detector. The only thing I would say is to book early if you require a service, as James is understandably very busy.

Excellent service
James serviced the boiler in my home today, and was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was running late but called well in advance to warn me, and to give me an idea of when he would arrive. He was thorough and very helpful. He also emailed me a copy of the gas service record, as well as a copy of the invoice - really excellent bonuses that I didn't expect. Thanks!

Boiler replacement
James installed a new boiler for me. I used his services again after he installed a boiler in my previous property. His work is of a very high standard, his fees are very reasonable and he takes time to explain how to operate new appliances. I plan to call on James for all my future heating and plumbing needs.

New boiler installed
James installed a new boiler for me in my sons flat in Glasgow replacing the old one. His work is of a very high standard and everything was left neat and tidy. His costs were very reasonable and he took time to explain to my son how to operate the new appliance. He also gave me options on different Boilers and costs so I could choose what suited me best. On completion he registerd the installation with the relevant authorities and with Bosch for the Guarantee and issued the Gas Safety Certificate.I would definetly recommend him and I will have him back to do the yearly service.

Replacement boiler installation
Like all other reviews, I only have positive things to say about the work carried out by James. He arranged everything in a timely manor. He arrived on time, removed the old boiler, had the new boiler delivered and then installed all in the morning. He cleaned up and removed the old boiler and fixings. I will be recommending him to family and friends.

James was recommended to us by family and we called him in a panic when our gas boiler stopped working and we had a gas leak. James was fantastic at responding quickly and coming out to see the job. A boiler replacement was installed in days. He is a really friendly and professional guy to deal with - extremely courteous and helpful to our tenant. a definate 10/10 we couldn't be happier.

I contacted James Rae with a view to installing an electric boiler in my kitchen. He arrived when stated and carried out the work in an efficient manner. He disposed of the old water tank and all of the associated rubbish that went with it on our behalf. I would have no hesitation in recommending James Rae to anybody else.
