A professional approach - the job was completed on time to the agreed schedule and budget. They were helpful and answered all questions. Aftercare was promised and I shall be using them for future work/annual servicing.

Replacement boiler - great service from Paul, Tracey and Norman
Customer Service

After our initial online enquiry we received a call from Tracey straight away to arrange for Paul to visit to price the job. A detailed quotation was received very promptly, and once we'd accepted she called to agree the installation date and told us who would be coming and what to expect. Paul and Norman arrived on time, and were courteous, polite and cheery. They clearly have a great working relationship, joshing with each other all the time, but most importantly they were very efficient and tidy. The new boiler was working by mid-afternoon, and the heating and hot water systems were thoroughly tested before they left. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Paul and his team to anyone.

Just what I asked for

Needed two radiators replacing/relocating and an inspection of my central heating system to see why it wasn't working effectively. Job was completed on the scheduled date to a (very) high standard and to budget. I am especially pleased with my (now) working heating system. Great communication, good job. Thank you.

Matthew installed a new hot water outdoor tap at our property and everything went extremely smoothly. High-quality work, clean, professional and competitively priced. Can't fault and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Will be our go-to plumber going forward.

Hope your dog is enjoying a warmer wash down following the install. Thermostatic mixing valves or bar shower mixers for washing or hosing down animals outside are certainly now a very popular addition to a animal friendly household. Thank you for your kind review and look forward to being of service again in the future.

This was the second job that Matthew from Paul Wareing Heating and Plumbing has done for me in the past couple of months. The work was excellent - neat, tidy and 100% efficient. Matthew is a very customer friendly tradesman who makes you feel completely comfortable that you are going to get a 1st class job with no fuss. The quotation was very reasonable and everything worked exactly as arranged with the office. The best plumbing firm that I've ever used, no question.

Boiler Replacement

As a trusted Heating Engineer and Plumber I engaged Paul to replace my Gas Boiler. He and his colleague arrived promptly on the scheduled day and over the next day and a half carried out the work with professionalism and efficiency. Having cleared up after the work he explained to me the operating instructions of the boiler before leaving. Paul is a friendly and very helpful professional who I would highly recommend to anyone needing plumbing/heating work done.

Combi boiler in time for winter and fuel rises

Referred to me by my work colleagues, Paul’s company provided a competitive quote with assurances in place about what suited my property and our family needs - We were long overdue to replacing a 20 year old boiler. Quote provided quickly and agreed. Fantastic job arriving promptly each day to both install the boiler and remove a redundant boiler-mate. Paul registered the combi boiler which has a 10 year guarantee. Didn’t need to communicate that much as all questions answered swiftly, including those I didn’t ask. Unreservedly recommend. I will be using Paul for my annual service and other plumbing services.
