Work Carried out at Tower Hall, Torquay
Came round only to look at three jobs and give a quote, but was able to complete them all during the visit and inside one hour. New unit in Toilet which didn't flush. New Taps in Kitchen as old ones not able to turn off. New Adjustable Toilet Seat in old lavatory - avoided necessity to replace toilet. Jobs all done efficiently and very helpful. Also answered questions about electric shower. Very pleased with service John Butler,

I have used this company twice in the past month. On both occasions they were easy to contact, responded very quickly, and appointments fixed for within a day or two. The engineers were very friendly and professional, and did an excellent job. I was particularly impressed today that the engineer was prepared to give my very old boiler every chance of survival, when most companies would condemn it and try to sell me a new one. He tracked down the problem that was stopping it from operating, and got it running again within an hour. Charges were very reasonable, and I was very relieved that I would not have to spend thousands on a new boiler.

Living in an older property, I have needed a plumber on numerous occasions. For each of those times, I have used South West Plumbing who have never failed to impress with their courtesy, their expert knowledge and excellent service. We have happily recommended them to anyone looking for plumbing services.

On moving home, I discovered the old gas boiler though working was not reliable. Contacted this firm having read its very good reviews in an emergency and they responded promptly. After a survey and work to improve the central heating system to maximise efficiency and get the old boiler running correctly, I decided to replace the 17 year old boiler to update it and peace of mind. Their end to end customer service is very professional and helpful including calls answered promptly and helpfully. The surveyor and engineer were very knowledgeable and answered all my queries about various options. Despite my considerable experience in dealing with domestic boilers, as a single elderly female it was very refreshing to have your views listened to and new technical issues properly explained. The installation of the new boiler was done very quickly and to a high standard. The engineer turned up on time, worked diligently and was polite and friendly as well as keeping my home neat and tidy. The overall cost was very reasonable for a top quality job. I have now contracted with South West Plumbing Services to annually service my heating system and respond to any repair needs. Given that the boiler is operating beautifully, my concern about heating reliability has gone as I know the system is in safe hands with this outstanding firm.

I have used South West Plumbing for many years, and have always found them to be helpful, efficient, pleasant to deal with and very professional in all aspects of work, from reception, to repairs and to servicing. I highly recommend them as a company. They have never disappointed and always rise to the challenge of trying to improve even further. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them.

I have had my boiler and cooker serviced by Southwest Plumbing for 10 years now. Such a friendly company from the office staff and plumbers too. Nice to have the same plumber visit for all this time. He is a credit to the company. Nice to see him still wearing a mask in my home. He is happy to chat whilst doing the service and feel as if he's a friend after all these years. Not once have I been let down or been left with a spec of dust as he is very particular to keeping everything as clean as it was. So to sum it up, clean, friendly, reliable, trustworthy and there prices are very reasonable đź‘Ś. 10/10. Well done guys.

Today was the third time I have had South West Plumbing Services in to do some work in my home. Without exception the engineers have been friendly, efficient, professional and they clean up after themselves - what more can you ask? Special mention must also go to Esther who is always so friendly and reassuring on the phone. I am happy to highly recommend this company.

We have used SWPS several times in the past and always been very pleased. We have just had them changing some bathroom items – old connections had seized up, a strange shaped bath for a shower screen. All of these difficulties were overcome. Their price is fair, they turn up when they say they will and always do a good job. I highly recommend them.
