We had underfloor heating and tiling done by this company. Mark and Tom( tilers) and Andy (electrician) were excellent Mark talked us through the process at the start and explained what they were going to do and how long it would take. We had some issues as our house is very old so none of our walls are straight but Mark and Tom worked a miracle and it looks amazing! The underfloor heating is a joy especially on cold mornings. Highly recommend this company but just make sure you’ve lots of biscuits…..Tom is a big fan of a choccy digestive!

Excellent Plumber: Central Heating Boiler
Customer Service
Quality
Value
I visited an empty house that I am selling and discovered that the central heating boiler was not working. Being the coldest day of the year this was obviously a big problem. Plus, I live 150 miles from the house. And was only in the area for 2 days. Luckily, a family member who lives locally recommended Peter to me. From the first phone call Peter was helpful, friendly and polite. He organised a visit for the next day to determine the problem. Ben, one of his team, met me at the house as planned. He discovered that the heat exchange pump had split. It was an old boiler so we decided that the only option would be a replacement. Peter phoned me that evening with a recommendation of the boiler I should go for, a quote for doing the job and said that he could fit the boiler within the week. It was such a relief to know that I could return home and leave the house in safe hands. Peter was as good as his promise. He picked up the keys for the house. Fitted the boiler on the scheduled day. And then returned the keys to the Agent. He set the boiler controls to ensure that the whole house would be heated to the correct levels. I've been today to check the work. It is excellent. And no mess anywhere. I would definitely recommend Peter and his team.

I contacted Peter Higson & Co Ltd regarding a radiator valve that was leaking and to conduct an annual boiler service. They quickly and accurately assessed the problem with the radiator and fitted new valves. The service was excellent, they were very polite and completed the work with care and attention. I am very happy with the new radiator valves and there is no more leaking. The radiator is over 10 years old and they were able to source valves very similar to the original ones and which suited the design of the radiator.

I texted at 08.15 about a problem in an en suite bathroom which meant I had to keep switching the water off and had a reply within 30 mins which gave a quote for the work and 2 scheduling options , one within 3 hours Jack and James phoned ahead and arrived at the time agreed that same day. They assessed the issue and explained what needed replacing. At my request we also discussed additional safety options that could be introduced for my peace of mind and agreed on one that would be completed at the same time The work was completed once they had sourced the parts - only took them 30 mins to purchase the parts. Jack and James were very professional and personable , they explained everything to me and left the bathroom clean and tidy I felt that the invoice was reasonable for the work that was completed in the time scale it was completed

I discovered a leak on the central heating boiler at my Mothers house. I contacted Peter Higson to ask for advice. Peter told me how to isolate the water to the boiler and explained to me that as the boiler was over 18 years old it would be a good idea to replace it. I agreed with this and the work started within 24 hours. On final inspection of the works I can confirm that the works were carried out to a high standard and that the engineers left my Mothers property in an immaculate condition. I cant thank them enough. I would highly recommend Peter Higson & Co Ltd to anybody seeking any kind of plumbing or heating works.

My boiler was serviced by British Gas and then Corgi, but communication proved increasingly difficult. The difference with Peter Higson was that a real person answered the phone, we agreed a service date two days later, the guys turned up at the time agreed and did a very thorough and professional job. I subsequently needed advice and Peter could not have been more helpful in a fairly lengthy conversation. They will be my first port of call for all my plumbing needs in future.

Bathroom refurb

We needed a plumber to undertake the removal of our existing bathroom suite and update and relocate it to another room. We were introduced to Pete by our builder who recommended him. From day 1 Pete has not disappointed, he was punctual for pre-meetings to assess the job, took his time to understand the project and promptly put together a fair quotation. Once we commissioned Pete, he recommended we visit Plumbase. Here we met the equally excellent Jo who helped design and render our dream bathroom with a fully tiled shower, half tiled walls and under floor heating. Once ready, Pete’s team led by Mark started the job. Mark is personable, hard working and also excellent at communicating, he’s a very good tiler and plumber. Alongside Mark there is James, another talented plumber and Andy a very knowledgable electrician. Pete also has a few apprentices on his books which is great to see. They all work together seamlessly to get the job done. Mark is always on hand to take your call, answer any questions and importantly look to fix any issues that have emerged during the job. The team completed the job much quicker than we were expecting and ensured the space was left clean and tidy. There were a couple things we needed changing post-completion but the team have quickly sorted these out with no problems. Overall we are highly satisfied by the work the team have undertaken and cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you Pete!

Having been recommended to Peter, I asked about a conversion of our bathroom. Neither of us are getting any younger or mobile and it became a necessity to replace the bath with a walk in shower. We received our quote and were happy to proceed. The team turned up on time to start the work en mass. It was a major overhaul . They promptly set about the task and over, roughly, 10 days the conversion was complete much to the delight of myself and my wife. The guys were polite and thorough in their work and attitude also flexible when they came across any problems. All for the cost of tea and biscuits. We added a few upgrades so the cost rose a little but not outwith our budget. We are more than happy to recommend this company and would use them again.

As with a lot of people in this cold weather my boiler stopped working. Peter advised what to do via the telephone but because my outside pipe was frozen solid the warm water trick didn’t work …….. Peter sent his team round in under an hour which I was so grateful for as it was so cold !!! The team sorted out my boiler and re positioned the outside pipe so that it doesn’t happen again. I am so delighted with the service that i have asked them to quote for my downstairs toilet.

A boiler job well done
Peter and his team have been very professional and efficient from the very beginning. I was left with high energetic bills and ineffective heating during the recent cold spell - despite regular Home servicing with British Gas . Peter promptly responded to my telephone enquiry, understood my needs, helped me select the right boiler and got the work started within a week - within my convenience. It was excellent to see Apprenticeship in action in this line of business. A team of friendly apprentices installed the new boiler under Peter’s guidance most efficiently and cleared up at the end. The apprentices were very knowledgeable and well trained to do the job without any problems - especially James, who was most friendly and very patient in communicating every little detail to me . I would highly recommend Peter Higson and his team for any boiler installation.

We have used Peter over the last 12 years for big jobs such as new radiators, boilers, showers, kitchens through to minor tap repairs. He is helpful and knowledgeable about any job. Responds quickly and come out to the job quickly. Always turns up when he says he will and had always been able to resolve the problem. Work is completed quickly and cleanly and comes back for any follow up work. He even lent us a number of plug in heaters when our boiler stopped working in the middle of winter. We couldn't recommend Peter more highly, hence why he has been our go to plumber for 12 years!

It’s a shame this firm don’t do whole property maintenance as they would get the job. Our boiler broke down on Monday and we have a new one (along with 3 new radiators we desperately needed) 3 days later. Well actually it was more like 2 days later. From the moment we called I knew we were in safe hands. Friendly, knowledgeable, polite, respectful, punctual, tidy, responsive and good quality. That old saying that a job has three parts to it but only 2 can be true at once. Quick, cheap, well done…if you want it quick and well done, it won’t be cheap. I actually think these guys have broken that model - this job was really well done, super quick and while it may not have been cheap it really didn’t feel like it was expensive. Partly, I suppose as 90% was on interest free credit. Brilliant job!!

Renovated bathroom

We were recommended Peter and Co. by our bathroom fixture supplier after we were turned down by so many other tradesmen as they were busy. And we are thankful that we did because Peter and his colleagues - Mark the tiler, James & Jack, both young plumbers and Andy, the electrician have managed to create a spanking new bathroom for us. We renovated our family bathroom as the tiles were crumbling, there were leaks externally & internally and a creaky floor. Peter gave us a reasonable quote (they are more expensive than others but we were looking for quality, so didn't compromise). They started on time and managed to finish within 4 weeks, mainly because we added several more tasks along the way including boiler servicing and loft insulation. The completed tilework, masonry repair and plumbing are excellent and we really didn't have to call them back apart from replacing a couple of parts due to manufacturer faults. Peter's team was gracious, patient with all our questions/ modifications/ requests, and ensured the work was completed with minimal disruption and no damage to the rest of the house. We would recommend them highly if you are in the area and looking to renovate a bathroom. We look forward to future projects with them.

He explained what needed doing and why, tidied up as he worked, and completed all the paperwork that keeps our Worcester Bosch warranties going. We asked him back for a plumbing job a few days later, and it was the same story - he even fitted us in on the same day! Peter and his apprentice James were great to deal with and we wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend them. He's now our go-to plumber as well as boiler engineer.

Peter and his team took my bathroom back to the brickwork and refurbished it. Everything went really well both in terms of time taken to complete the work and budget. The team turned up when they said they would and kept me informed throughout the whole project. They accommodated changes on the way and carried out small extra jobs with a smile. Peter made suggestions which I would never have thought of to solve problems. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure to leave enough room for me to move safely around my house. I really can’t fault their workmanship and would happily recommend them to friends and family. As a bonus, I now have contacts for all the various trades, which I will be using in the future. Thank you so much Peter, James, Kevin, Adam, Andy, Mark and Mervyn for such great work.

Peter, James and all the trades they work with completed the renovation of our bathroom on budget and on time. They were a pleasure to have around, and made a potentially stressful renovation project run as smooth as possible for us. Any minor hitches were addressed quickly and without a fuss. The standard of customer care and communication is well beyond most other trades we have used previously.The transformation of our bathroom is dramatic,and we are absolutely delighted with the finish. It is now a pleasure to use and a credit to Peter and his team. We will certainly call Peter again, should we need any other plumbing or gas work.

Peter Higson is a genuinely nice guy and very knowledgeable. He helped us when we moved in our current house which at the time didn't have central heating but was fitted with a very old (and not working) coal boiler and immersion take only. He helped recommend the boiler and system we needed, fitted it, connected it to the new gas mains we had installed, fitted all the pips and new radiators into the property. His extensive knowledge of current but also traditional systems was invaluable to achieve this as he needed to decommission the existing coal system and connect in the new one. The boiler and system has worked perfectly since installed five years ago and we use Peter to service it annually. If you're looking for a decent plumber, who can be relied upon then give Peter a call.

Peter and James refurbished our bathroom and carried out a number of repairs to our plumbing system. Throughout the work they were polite and considerate and we are delighted with the standard of workmanship. Throughout the process we were kept well informed of how things were progressing and what the next step would be and they were happy to discuss any concerns we had. Both Peter and James were reliable and always arrived on time for appointments. I would definitely recommend this company. Thanks Peter!

It was a pleasure to meet Pete and James. Both were friendly, polite and informative throughout the duration of the work. This is actually the second time I have used their services. The first time was to replace a shower enclosure and tray as well as cleaning the tiles. The second time was to address an issue with the water pressure by installing a water pressure governing system under the kitchen sink. On both occasions the work was completed to a very high standard and with the minimum amount of disruption possible. My property was left clean and tidy to the extent that you couldn't tell they had ever been there. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing plumbing services.

He and his colleague always turned up perfectly on time, and was always cheery and practical. He was easy to contact and very clear about what he was going to do and how long it would take. The installation is neat and was carried out with minimal inconvenience and no mess. We cannot speak too highly of his work and how he goes about it.

I have used Peter for various jobs - fitting new radiators, and most recently boiler servicing. He has also done work (new boiler, radiators & pipework) for my parents on my recommendation who were also delighted with the job that was done. Whole process from quoting to invoicing and all communication is professional, quick and efficient. Appointments are kept and often have been in advance of original date as they will always endeavour to fit you in if sooner if they can. Standard of work is excellent with work clearly explained and sensible advice offered before, during and after the job is done. Everywhere is always kept neat and tidy as the work progresses and is left clean at the end. Peter is always really helpful and goes the extra mile to get jobs completed to a very high standard. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using in future for all plumbing/heating work and have already requested quote for new bathroom.

We cannot recommend and thank Peter and his colleague enough. A lovely gentleman and has done an incredible job for us. We were having building work done and our builders walked out on us before Christmas leaving us in a very difficult position with a desperate need of a wide array of plumbing requirements. Peter was so kind and accommodating and has done plumbing work to our kitchen, utility room, bathrooms, radiators, boiler and external drains to a very very high standard. Thanks to him we have a home to move back in to. Thank you.

I contacted PH after passing by their van in Altrincham. The process of getting a quote was very smooth and Peter was very polite and understanding. Once quoted and we agreed, the work was carried out. The team was highly professional in explaining what they were going to carry out and they did it without leaving any mess. Peter would also advise on progress and ensured the work was done with superb finish. I have since used PH twice and have not been disappointed. Very trusted also and everything was put into place after they finished. Quotation process is very straight forward. Highly recommended.

Over the years we've had Peter do a number of jobs for us. He has replaced and performed annual maintenance on our central heating system and done a number of smaller plumbing jobs. Peter always provides a quote and agrees dates before starting any work and keeps to those dates. In some cases he has called and actually began the work earlier than expected. His workmanship is top quality and he always removes any rubbish at the end of the job.

Replacement of uneconomical to repair combi boiler . Peter Higson chosen from a approved supplier list from the domestic and general warranty scheme for replacement boilers . Peter higson has been excellent from start to finish. Made contact within the hour to view the required job and has provided a first class service throughout from installation to clearing up after completing the work . Whilst they are not the cheapest I was happy to pay for many years of experience and expertise to ensure a professional job was done . The old adage ? you get what you pay for ? comes to mind . They ensured all was working correctly with the boiler and would not leave until a wifi connection to the boiler was working properly . Peter and his co worker James were pleasant and courteous throughout the time they were on site and answered any questions we had on the work being carried out I would have no reservations in recommending them .
