Southgate & Culham Ltd

Annual service and replacement of faulty valve performed promptly and efficiently. Nikki and Kevin are very reliable and a pleasure to deal with

I was kept fully up to date with arrangements for my service including text to say the engineer was on his way. The engineer was excellent and very thorough and ensured I was informed of the findings. Highly recommend.

Office administrator and Engineer are always very friendly - and the work was carried out on time and efficiently.

Niki and Kevin are an exceptional team. They are knowledgeable, hard working people but also friendly, you don’t feel that you have strangers in your home, well, we wouldn’t, we’ve had them back for the last 7 years! That’s how much we value and trust them. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Southgate and Culham carried an annual service of my oil fired combo boiler. This is the first time I’ve used them. Their work was excellent. The engineer, a woman, explained exactly what she would need to do, and what snags she might come up against. The work was carried out most efficiently, and we agreed she should replace a part which would normally be renewed annually. She advised installing a slightly more expensive model as it offered better value for money and last 2 - 3 times as long. The boiler and surroundings were left immaculate. Throughout she was most courteous and at pains to be sure I was happy with her work - very important for an elderly person like me! The only tiny shadow in an otherwise flawless experience was a last minute change to the appointment which I did not know about. The engineer arrived some time after the agreed time slot, and apologised that they had not warned me beforehand. But I would unhesitatingly recommend the company.

My old oil boiler finally died and I needed a new modern boiler. Research showed that Southgate and Culham are Diamond installers listed by Worcester Bosch. Had to wait a while for them to fit me in but well worth the wait as both partners are fully qualified engineers and really know what they are doing. They fitted the new boiler outside my utility giving me more internal space and easy access for servicing in the future. Both partners are friendly and helpful and they easily fitted an extra radiator (which was not in the original specification). They are very clean and tidy leaving the site neat overnight and as clean as they could make it at the end of the job. All the paperwork has been completed in a very professional manner, invoices on time and receipts returned swiftly. I would highly recommend this company, they have over 30 years experience of central heating engineering and they are good people with whom to do business.

Excellent service from start to finish! I highly recommend their services to anyone. A reliable and customer focused team.

A site visit was paid by Kevin who readily explained options and made recommendations, all of which were patiently and clearly explained. This was followed by comprehensive quotes for either a standard or condenser boiler. A condenser boiler was ordered and Kevin and his colleague, Wayne, arrived promptly on the agreed day of installation and immediately set to work removing the old boiler. They both worked diligently throughout the day and the new boiler was up and running by late afternoon. On completion of the work they gave a good brief on the operation of the boiler and cleared the site of all detritus and packaging, including removal of the old boiler. Overall a thoroughly professional job carried out by competent and personable tradespersons. They were ably supported back in their office by Nikki, who made all the administrative arrangements. I have no hesitation in highly recommending this company.

Our boiler failed and we wanted to update our system to an Unvented system. I had been recommended Viessmann boilers by a friend so got in touch. Kevin, from Southgate & Culham, came to review what we wanted and after hearing what we needed, suggested a better solution than I originally was going to go for. It meant we could get rid of the boiler from the kitchen completely and get everything into one unit in the airing cupboard upstairs. From that point everything went very well, from agreeing the price, installation date, the install and all follow up has been excellent. The install was completed in 2 days as agreed and everything was up and working. The quality of workmanship is very good and nothing was too much trouble for Kevin & Wayne in making sure we were happy with everything. We are delighted with the new system and I would thoroughly recommended Southgate & Culham.

Southgate and Culham have completed a number of jobs for us and they've always done a great job. Professional and reliable - highly recommend.

I needed a replacement boiler due to mine developing a water leak. I had 1 quote from my previous servicing provider. Kevin came on the same day that I called to do the quotation, he provided a brochure and explained everything that would be required very clearly. He also informed me that his business was "Worcester Boiler" accredited installers which meant that I would get a 7 year Boiler Warrantee (unlike my previous suppler where it would only be 5 years). The written quote arrived on the day he said and it was very detailed and comprehensive. I called to accept the quote and was only required to pay a 10% deposit with the balance on completion, my previous supplier required 50% deposit. The installation was scheduled for 4 day later. On the day of installation, I had to go out for 3 hours, Kevin arrived at the stated time and I left him to get on with the work, his colleague arriving with the equipment a short while afterwards. When I returned, they were well into the installation. Kevin explained that they had encountered a few issues and changed slightly the way they had originally planned the position of external components, which was better for me anyway. Everything was finished by mid-afternoon, all the controls and installation explained very clearly. The property was left clean and tidy. The entire experience was excellent; the Company was clear in their explanations, extremely professional and friendly, did exactly as they said and on time. 100% satisfied.

Having had no hot water in the scout hut for many years this has been solved with a system. This was fitted in a very reasonable time of less than a day on the day that was said. The installers were polite and helpful and resolved any problems encountered.

Southgate and Culham have just fitted a new gas boiler for CH and water. We have used them since moving to this area 10 years ago and they have consistently provided a reliable and competitively priced service for the several jobs we have had done. They provide a very professional service through experienced engineers and support staff. I recommend in full confidence.

Having found Southgate and Culham's name on the Weissman website I left a message on their answering machine. I was rung back within 30 minutes and was able to arrange a boiler service within 2 weeks. I had been somewhat concerned due to the Covid situation but the service was carried to our complete satisfaction and in a safe manner. In view of this, we went ahead with a toilet fitting which we had been putting of for nearly 12 months. Again the work was carried out in a friendly, competent manner and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

They were recommended by a friend and their advice and professionalism lived up to and exceeded my expectation. Initial advice; honest and expert. Quotation; comprehensive and very fair. Punctuality; turned up on site on the day originally agreed. Workmanship; extremely professional and tidy. Handing over; comprehensive and understandable. To add to this, they were polite, friendly and respectful of our property. An absolute delight to have them undertaking the work for us. They will always get my recommendation.

Job booked in and arranged promptly and efficiently, Engineer arrived exactly on time and day as arranged, Carried out perfect job No mess no fuss with full explanation of relevant information in a pleasant and friendly manner.

We had a boiler service and a replacement for the expansion tank and associated multivalve. Clean and tidy worker who completed all works efficiently and in a very good time scale. Excellent service and would highly recommend this company.

Southgate & Culham has has looked after out central heating system for many years. Usually just a boiler service. However on the few occasions when something did go awry they were always available quickly to solve the issue. Friendly and skilful staff, highly recommended.

Two out of eight valves had developed faults after 30-35 years service resulting in rhythmic rumblings, clatter and a cold radiator. I requested renewal of them all. This needed total drain down followed by recharging with corrosion inhibitor. While conducting a full heat test, Kevin discovered that a heating zone valve was also faulty causing failure of the boiler to start. This had manifested as an untraceable intermittent fault some weeks earlier, so I was very pleased to have this fixed at the same time. The work was carried out to the highest standard on the agreed date and the cost fell within expected parameters. Kevin was very careful to observe Pandemic protocol throughout the visit and left the house clean and tidy. We kept out of the way in the one room without thermostatic valves, kept warm with a portable electric heater! There has been no further problems with radiators following the visit. I have used this company for many years and always found them to be very helpful and efficient, I would not hesitate to provide a recommendation.

As a Which member, I found Southgate & Culham on the Which? Trusted Trader website. After reading the reviews & then viewing their website, I first phoned the company on 12.11.20 for a quote to carry out:- 2 x Radiator / TRV / Lockshield changes and 6 x TRV / Lockshield changes. Spoke to a very friendly helpful lady called Nikki, who gave me a verbal quote straight away. This was confirmed by email the next day & received by post two days later. I accepted the quote, which was very competitive & thorough. Then had further communication by phone & email. The work was initially booked for 10.12.20 which unfortunately I had to change to 18.12.20. I also added some additional work. Nothing was too much trouble for Nikki, who is very professional & knowledgeable. She is very polite & courteous with excellent customer care & people skills. Having dealt with numerous Plumbing & Heating companies over the years, both professionally & for my own home use, throughout the UK, I have to say dealing with Southgate & Culham is a very welcome breath of fresh air!

Superb service from beginning to end. Been using Southgate & Culham for four years, having been recommended to us by the previous owners of our house, who had used them for boiler servicing for at least eight years previously. We contacted them mid-December as an emergency because our previous boiler, installed when the house was built, had failed completely, resulting in the need for a replacement. They had the new boiler installed before Christmas. Very conscientious and experienced team. Turned up when promised, meticulously tidy and kept the work areas spotless throughout the job. Boiler works well and the house has never been so warm!

Fitting new Worcester/bosch oil fired boiler. Fitting was completed on time and in budget. I would thoroughly recommend Southgate & Cullum. The fitters were incredibly efficient and the job was done with little disruption and completed in a day. The old boiler and pipework taken away as agreed. After sales service very good and boiler has been running perfectly. I would highly recommend for future projects.

We found Southgate a very helpful and efficient company, and would recommend them to anyone, and a pleasure to deal with and were spot on diagnosing our problem immediately. Easy a 5-star company
