Good work replacing boiler

We were very pleased with the work which John and Corey did for us replacing a very old boiler and fitting a new radiator in the hall. John was very efficient, turning up when he said he would, completing the job well within the time agreed, and leaving everything neat and tidy. He and his apprentice were pleasant and easy to be around. We also valued Kim’s knowledge about the admin side of things. We felt the work was done at a competitive price. The house is now as warm as toast! We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

We have just had a new boiler and radiators fitted into a Victorian flat, and throughout, we found John and his team were thoroughly professional. From the start, there was easy communication and quick responses; knowledgeable advice and recommendations concerning all decisions; adherence to the time plan; consideration of property, neighbours and communal areas; attention to detail and highly organised; and finally and very importantly, ability to explain the working of the new system. We would thoroughly recommend them to others.

We have used this firm of plumbers for many years even going back to the days of Mr Mitchell senior. His son installed a new boiler for us recently, eighteen years after installing the previous one. Every aspect of his work was excellent and we were amazed that he could undertake it single-handed. The job was completed quickly and efficiently, even taking less than the estimated time of two days. All the pipework was finished to a very high standard and fitted neatly into the existing cupboard space thus preventing us from having to redecorate. John Mitchell was extremely thoughtful and courteous throughout the time he was working in the house. He worked extremely hard, taking only very short breaks and even refused a hot drink. We would have no hesitation in recommending the firm to anyone whatever their age and circumstances.

From start to finish Kim, John and his team made it easy to get a new boiler. Ours was over 20 years old and actually broke down a month before we were booked to have the work done and the team all moved things around so we didn’t have to be without a boiler once it got really cold. Once here, they couldn’t have been more careful and neat plus always happy to explain what was happening and needed to be done. Payment was also transparent, efficient and fair. We couldn’t have been more satisfied.

An amazing experience! Replacing an aged 38yr old boiler was something I was not looking forward to but I need not have worried. John, Korey and Alex did a fantastic job. Some pipework and the flue had to be replaced as well as the rerouting of some electrics, but each small problem was solved smoothly and efficiently - you would not know that carpets/floorboards had been taken up. They were all extremely hard working, efficient, clean and cheerful. The whole experience was topped off by my trusty old boiler not going to landfill but to our local college for Korey and his fellow apprentices to learn on. I also have to pass on the praise of my decorator who followed on this week - he asked me to congratulate John on his work - he has never seen such clean and tidy work which made his job so much easier. I can't recommend JR Mitchell John highly enough.

We needed a new heating system as our back boiler was coming to the end of its working life. With the array of different heating systems, we were unsure of the best option for us. So, we decided to contact various recommended local heating engineers to come and advise on different systems. The majority of them were not interested or couldn't be bothered to get back to us even after chasing phone calls. So, we contacted Worcester Bosch boiler manufacturers who had a list of approved heating installers in our area and came across two companies. One being RJ Mitchell of Bath. As members of the Which organisation, we also looked for advice on heating systems and installers. One installer had an exceptional review, and this happened to be RJ Mitchell of Bath. We registered our interest on the Worcester Bosh website and received a phone call within 10 minutes from Kim Mitchell. Kim was very helpful and willing to discuss our initial thoughts of changing our heating system over the next 45 minutes. Following this, she arranged an appointment for John Mitchell to do a site survey and discuss further details of heating options. John contacted us to confirm his appointment and arrived on time and was comprehensive with what they could offer. He genuinely seemed interested in our project and wanted to give the best heating system for us, not what he could sell us. John Mitchell is, by far, the most approachable, friendly and experienced heating engineer we had contact with.

It is excellent to deal with a family firm like RJ Mitchell. The boiler is on the top floor of a tall house which meant scaffolding was needed -all very efficiently organised by Mitchell’s. All dealings with the firm from the initial survey, the quote and the installation went exactly to plan and the whole team was a pleasure to have working in the house. They are experts in their field so I am very happy to recommend them

My partner and I recently took on a renovation project that required a new hot water and heating system. Communication from the start during initial meeting and quote was great, and this was provided in the time agreed. Being very new to the process, John offered a lot of helpful and useful advice along the way, and always seemed on hand to respond to all of our queries. During the work, the team were tidy, organised, and very efficient. They were able to work round our changing schedule, and very accomodating during a busy period. They also coped well with the challenge of installing two curved radiators in bay windows. All the team we came into contact with; Kim, Adam, Korey and of course John were all polite, friendly and helpful. Any small issue was rectified quickly and easily. As new homeowners, it's reassuring to know of RJ Mitchell, and we will be using them for the yearly boiler service, and any future plumbing needs. Quoted priced compared to some others was marginally higher, but the level of service, support, and care was well worth it.

My existing old boiler failed and although I was booked to have a new one fitted during January 2022 Kim in the office pulled out all the stops and my new boiler was fitted only days after I reported my problem. A very professional happy team arrived on time, worked solidly all day and completed the job to my absolute satisfaction in the evening. This is the second time I have used this company to fit a new boiler in this house and my previous one. I will always use this company who are so helpful and an example to others. Recommended without reserve!

John did a great job installing our new boiler. Because it was a replacement for a very old boiler there was a lot of replumbing, new pipework, flue replacements, etc. Some of the plumbers we got around to give us a quote wouldn't even attempt the job, but John was unphazed and found good solutions to all the potential problems. He let us know what needed to be done at every stage and fully answered any of our questions. I can't recommend John highly enough. It was also very useful to have Kim available as a dedicated person 'front of house' to handle any queries. Highly recommended.
