Southgate & Culham Ltd

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.

Kevin arrived early to service our gas boiler. Great job, clean work, good value for money. 😃 Recommended.

Southgate and Culham have carried out work for us since 2021. They have fitted us new radiators and have carried out boiler service each year. Their work is excellent we would recommend them 100%.

We have had the pleasure of Southgate & Culham’s professional and exemplary service for many years. Friendly, quick responses, nothings too much trouble. We highly recommend S&C.

We have had the pleasure of having Kevin and Nikki look after our central heating and hot water for the last few years. They are very easy to deal with and very knowledgeable regarding their work. Work is always to a high standard and workspace always left clean and tidy. Emails and calls are promptly responded to and visits arranged in good time.

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.

There's nothing more reassuring than people who really know their trade - Kevin and Nikki are utterly proficient and take a genuine pride in their work; there's never anything remotely second rate about their workmanship or the products they install, it's always absolutely first class. It's massive bonus that they are also friendly and reassuring. Really can't recommend them too highly.

Kevin services our boiler annually and at the last service he advised we were on borrowed time, we decided to have a new boiler installed before winter. The service provided is always professional and we trust the company. Price seemed fair and we trust the company's work. The job was completed as agreed, on time, to a high standard, no issues, great communication during the job as usual. We are very happy with the work performed.

Work was carried out efficiently and effectively - even when a specific component was needed which was not carried by the company, this was sourced. The space left was clean. Given the time spent on a Saturday, the cost of the work was very reasonable. Thank you

Our 20 year old oil boiler was failing and so they quoted and installed a new boiler over 2 days. It was a tricky job but they did it very professionally and kept us updated in a friendly way through the process. Highly recommended family firm.

Southgate & Cullum installed my boiler 9 years ago and did the annual service today. They are always on time and carry out the work efficiently and tidely. Always very friendly. We are retiling the kitchen and changing all electrical fittings one of which was a boiler controller. I asked Kevin to change this during the service which he did free of charge. Very much appreciated and typical of their service. Would highly recommend.

The servicing work was completed on the agreed date and efficiently done. The technician replaced worn hoses under warranty and explained why it was necessary. Thank you.

First class service again, efficient and kind with an aged person! Thank you for your continued help.

We have been using Southgate and Culham Ltd for a number of years now to undertake various works at our own home and a rental property. The jobs have varied from minor remedial work, radiator replacement and a full boiler installation. Kevin and Nikki have always been excellent have provided us with reliable service over the years. Would highly recommend them.

Kevin and Nikki are very thorough and professional engineers who have installed both of our oil-fired boilers and serviced them for many years. They are friendly and helpful and will not stop until any issues they might find have been resolved. I would not consider going anywhere else!

Kevin at Southgate and Culham Ltd is a true professional! Kevin carried out the installation of our boiler in 2019 and it really was an excellent job. He gave us wonderful advice at the time as to the type of Boiler that would suit our house. Kevin thoroughly explained the types of Boilers that would be most suitable for our needs and we are extremely happy with the performance of the Boiler he recommended. He always arrives on time for our annual Boiler Service and is always very cheerful and extremely personable! Kevin always hands over the paperwork which he has completed in a comprehensive manner and explains the Service that he has carried out on our Boiler and is always extremely thorough in his work. We are very happy to highly recommend Kevin's work to everyone and we always receive prompt emails also from Nikki at Southgate and Culham Ltd. We value the fast response we always receive from Southgate and Culham Ltd and know that they are at the end of a phone, should we ever need to make contact. We look forward to Kevin's annual visits for the Boiler Service in the future. Thank you. Tommy and Christine Cain - Swilland

Kevin Rush Toner has serviced our boiler for the last 4 years the first one he had to unravel Flood an French mistakes. We’re more than happy with the work Kevin does. We would recommend his firm without doubt.

Nikki is highly professional and reliable. She always answers the phone - which in my experience is rare for a plumbing & heating company - and delivers work to a very high standard.

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

The engineer cleaned our boiler very well considering how sooty it was she did an excellent job and didn’t charge me the extra it should have been.

Annual service for gas boiler, good customer service, arrived on time, helpful and informative and cost same as 2 years ago!

Kevin carried out the annual boiler service on my Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i. He is friendly, helpful and very professional. I have never found a Gas Safe engineer to be so knowledgeable, competent and fastidious in his work. Excellent customer care and customer service.

Kevin removed a radiator prior to replastering work. It was on time and budget. Kevin is always friendly; he remembers year to year what he has done previously. On the time that something went wrong he fixed it promptly and free of charge.

Worcester boiler engineer was unable to solve problem with wall unit for Honeywell equipment flashing red. When contacted Southgate & Culham boss, Kevin, came round same day and replaced Honeywell wall unit with a new unit, which sorted out the problem.He was very efficient, friendly, extremely competent and helpful, as we have always found him in the past when his help was required.

The service was completed promptly and at the time arranged. Highly professional job done to my complete satisfaction.

Nikki arrived as arranged to complete the annual boiler service. She advised that there was a problem with the expansion vessel and gave me the number to call to have it replaced under warranty. The replacement vessel has now been replaced. An efficient and friendly service - many thanks

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 fitted my boiler some years ago, have always serviced it, will make every effort to come out when I have a problem at very short notice, and are always friendly and helpful. I recommend them.

We have used this company for the last 5 years, they always arrive on time very pleased with the work having used them so many time says it all, totally would recommend them.

Just moved into the area, first class service, professional and skilled in their approach. Made my life so much easier.

Kevin and Nicky were recommended by friends to install a new boiler. We are delighted with their service and the system. We are due to start some major renovation work and ideally would have installed a new boiler later. However, we needed heating and Kevin was very understanding of our situation as was very flexible in the way he approached the job. The job was completed within agreed timescales and budget. A minor issue after installation was resolved quickly and willingly. We would have no hesitation in recommending Southgate and Cullum.

The boiler service was carried out fully - I was very pleased to learn that after fully testing all functions no fault was found.

Efficient friendly and tidy work done on our boiler. A clear outline of what was done and some good advice regarding extending the boiler's life. Heartily recommended.

This is the 3rd service Southgate &Culham have carried out for us always extremely satisfied. They have also fitted us a couple of radiators very pleased with them .. little mess. They are an extremely reliable firm to deal with.

Gas boiler and gas fire serviced. Cost of the service was stated at the time of booking the service, no other charges were incurred. Friendly and courteous engineer.

Our plumber recently retired so it meant we needed to find a local plumber. Our property is only 10 years old but problems can and do arise and not having a reliable plumber is not a good idea. I found Southgate & Culham and have now used them 3 times in the last 4 months. They have given excellent service over 3 different types of callouts. The first was concerning a problem in the non-ventilated area of the domestic hot water system, the second was a propane leak to the cooker hob and the third was a booked service to our oil boiler. Of course, they have all the necessary accreditation to carry out this diverse work and it was accomplished without delay in a really very pleasant manner. They were careful and tidy and obviously very knowledgeable about the work they were doing. All in all, I am very pleased to have found them and already trust them knowing they can actually do what they say they can. Excellent company.

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.

Boiler service carried out promptly and efficiently. Very professional and friendly. Thank you, look forward to using your services in the future.

The work involved a routine annual servicing of our boiler. The work was completed on time as previously agreed with Southgate and Culham.

Southgate and Callum are a family run company that I cannot recommend highly enough. They installed our boiler 6 years ago, and have serviced it, and our gas log fire ever since. They are reliable, efficient, reasonably priced and, quite frankly, a pleasure to have in your home.

I have used the services of Southgate and Culham for over 15 years during which time they have installed a gas boiler in my first house and an oil boiler in my present home. Both installations were completed smoothly and in a highly professional manner. I have used them throughout to service and maintain my heating system which they have done to my complete satisfaction. They are always on hand and very willing to attend to any issues that may present. I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

New Boiler installed and working within a day. Great service, friendly team, very efficient and highly recommend.

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.

This company installed my central heating system and a new boiler in 2012 and have serviced it ever since. They have always been efficient, reliable and a pleasure to welcome into my house. On a couple of semi emergency callouts they were able to respond quickly which is a great comfort to me. I cannot speak highly enough of them and if your first contact with them is Nikki your experience will be reassuring and leave you confident of the good standard of service you can expect to receive.

Heat exchanger failed on our 13-yer old boiler and so we were without hot water and heating. Within two days of diagnosing the problem, Kevin had stripped out the old and fitted a new boiler. Brilliant!

Boiler service carried out by Nikki. Covid precautions discussed and agreed. Comprehensive check of installation including oil supply carried out including combustion efficiency test. Courteous throughout - will use again.

Southgate & Culham Ltd installed my boiler in 2019 and have also serviced it every year. A small problem occurred and they arrived at my property within 40 mins of my call. Came back next day to check everything was fine. Excellent service and would recommend the company. Fast efficient and friendly.

Our boiler developed a problem which meant it wasn’t switching on and because it's a combi boiler we had no heating or hot water. I phoned S&C and told them the two fault codes. I was told the electrodes needed replacing and they would order them. The electrodes arrived a few days later and the engineer installed them. The boiler came on and he left, and 30 minutes later it stopped working again. I phoned S&C who washed their hands of the problem and advised me to contact the boilers manufacturer (Vaillant). A Vaillant engineer came out a few days later. He checked the fault codes, stored in memory on the boiler, and quickly diagnosed the problem as a faulty gas valve. The gas valve was changed and the boiler has worked perfectly ever since. Subsequently, we received an invoice from S&C for £102. I emailed them and suggested that as they had not fixed the boiler they should consider giving us a discount. This they refused to do. They deny I told them both fault codes over the phone. I know I told them both codes but I can’t prove it. Even so, the two fault codes were displayed on the boilers screen and they are stored in memory and can easily be accessed by a competent engineer. The S&C engineer who attended failed to diagnose the problem. He just wanted to change the part and get out fast. I don't think the S&C engineer knew how to fault the boiler and they should not have taken the job. Needless to say, I will NEVER use them again.

Routine annual service carried out on Worcester Greenstar Danesmoor 18/25 oil fired boiler. Work was done to agreed schedule and budget. Company staff arrived promptly, carried out the work in full compliance with Covid19 protocol and left the site clean and tidy. I have been using this company for many years now and have always been pleased with their cheerful prompt response when occasional faults happen.

Southgate and Culham replaced our aging oil boiler with a Worcester Bosch unit and did an excellent job from start to finish. Throughout the two day job they were friendly, efficient and courteous. We decided to redesign our utility room where the new boiler was going to go and Kevin was really helpful with pipework routing to make the new room easy to tile and paint, nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely use again for servicing and future works. Would recommend highly.

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

Our hot water expansion tank sprung a leak overnight and soaked everything including the carpeted area next to the hot water cylinder. Contacted Southgate & Culham and explained the problem and how urgently we needed it fixed. They came out that day and not only fixed the problem, but identified previous plumbing mistakes that caused the expansion tank problem. Everything sorted by the end of the day...…Cannot thank them enough.

What an amazing couple - Kevin on the installation, Nikki (mostly) in the office and on occasion coming over to lend a hand, and tutor me in the finer points of my smart system. I had a complete new heating system put into a newly connected gas supply in a big older house. The house threw up a few unexpected challenges and Kevin - a true problem solver and lateral thinker - came up with some very clever solutions to deal with them. Kevin also deftly minimised the disruption, kept me in hot water throughout through clever phasing of the work and finished ahead of time. Above all they are both really lovely people with very high standards -considerate, thoughtful and knowledgeable. When I found myself in an unrelated crisis, they were quick with suggestions and offers of help. I found Southgate & Culham through the Which? trusted traders site, and I could not have found anyone anywhere that I could trust more. I am a single older woman and a long-standing member of Which? and am very grateful to have been able to rely upon their expertise, their local knowledge, and their kindness. I cannot recommend them highly enough. And I love my new heating system, which delivers everything Kevin said it would. My dad would approve of him.

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.

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.

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.

Southgate & Culham Ltd installed my gas boiler in 2012 and since then have annually serviced the boiler. They are always punctual, friendly, knowledgeable, and considerate. They are also easy to contact by telephone or email.

Kevin arrived on time and completed the boiler service with his customary efficiency. We discussed other work to the heating system to be undertaken at a later date. A quotation for this work arrived very soon after and we have agreed to go ahead.

Had way too many quotes from various suppliers (my mistake!) offering different solutions for replacement of our leaking boiler. Didn't think an external boiler would be within our budget and was told by one supplier it couldn't be done! Southgate and Culham explained everything in plain English and came across as honest and trustworthy people so they got the job. Great work, a tidy installation and we've never been warmer, plus the hot water tank finally fills up properly and has not run out once, so we are well pleased. Definitely recommend and they will be getting the service work too.

I've used S&C for years but their recent performance has been very disappointing. Replaced a shower valve and left the new unit stuck on with silicone sealant - explanation was that " all showers are 155mm spacing" This is untrue as I found many online. Fixed this "at their expense" after initially arguing it was the best that could be done. Replaced a hot water cylinder - left us overnight with no hot water (immersion set to minimum) and shower not connected as this "would take too long" ( were going to two breakdowns) plus a leaking joint on the hot water pipe. Returned the next day and left us with no hot water from the central heating. This they claimed was an existing fault, even though it was working fine before. A separate electrician called on Monday and fixed the issue as a defective "quick connector" had been used. Earth bonding had been removed whilst replacing stop cock. S&C claim this was already disconnected even though I have a photo taken before their work. It is dangerous to not connect earth bonding. This repaired by the electrician on Monday. Have used them for 4 boiler replacements plus other work in the past, but having to argue to get a resolution is draining. A simple apology and fixing the issue would be fine - not excuses like "it was already like that" "it's the best that could be done as no smaller valves exist" "it will take too long to connect the shower" The faults were fixed at their expense, which is only to be expected and not a virtue.

Another fantastic installation by S &C. Reliable, efficient and easy to contact which is all you need when you are having problems with heating etc.

Hi, After calling the company that installed my boiler with no response for two days. I found this company, Southgate & Culham Ltd from the Worcester-Bosch website. My central heating system broke down and I call the company and Nikki who answered the call was nice and friendly. The engineer would be with you, within an hour. When I told her what the problem was I had with the system, she knew what the fault was and check that the engineer had the part on board before sending him out, which was great, because the the engineer was able to change the broken part and resolved the problem satisfactorily. He was very helpful and the job was done in 30 minutes. Great work well done. Yes I would recommend this company. Mr H Sutherland

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.

Thank you again for your prompt and professional gas boiler service and safety inspection. Nikki is always quick to respond and communicates clearly and precisely. Highly recommend Southgate and Culham, again!

I used S&C after they very honestly advised me I don't need a boiler replacement, it just needed a service. Kevin came and serviced it during lockdown and was brilliant with covid precautions, got the job done and answered questions we had. Will definitely use S&C again for a hive install and future services.

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!

These guys are what anybody would want in a tradesman. Office correspondence is clear and friendly and they respond to questions and answer phone calls and emails. They try hard to fit you in quickly when your system is down. They know their stuff but are ready to give advice as well as make repairs. I can do some of my own work and they are happy to work with me on it. They are flat out but give you time. Excellent rating from me.

The first paragraph on the profile page of Southgate & Culham on Which? Trusted Traders is spot on! Finally, a Plumbing & Heating company with Morals, Scruples & Principles who provide a 5 Star Impeccable Service with Excellent Customer Care & Excellent Customer Service Wayne arrived early to carry out:- Two Radiator changes along with two TRV/Lockshield sets Six TRV/Lockshield set changes Tighten Mono Mixer Tap on Kitchen Sink Wayne removed his shoes upon arrival (which is always a good sign that a Tradesman respects your home) & placed covers under the Radiators to be removed. He worked incredibly fast & was clean & tidy throughout the house & even hoovered! Wayne was friendly, very polite & courteous with excellent people skills. He is very knowledgable & answered all my questions I asked him to look at & carry out additional works if he had time:- a) Hallway Radiator change b) Replace & Redirect Condensate Pipe to new Combi Boiler (Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i) which had been fitted by another company a week earlier c) Check Boiler Flue in Loft & Roof Nothing was too much trouble & he carried out the additional checks & work very quickly. I have used numerous Plumbing & Heating companies throughout the UK & Abroad for Hospitality Venues & Homes & Wayne is one of the best Plumbing & Heating Engineers I have ever seen. He is an excellent asset & a superb ambassador for Southgate & Culham. Can thoroughly recommend this 5 Star company for any Plumbing & Heating work

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!

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.

Southgate & Culham were selected to install our gas central heating based on good reviews and a competitive price. Right from our first phone conversation with Nikki in the office, to our site inspection and finally, installation, we have received prompt and courteous service. Kevin and Wayne carried out the installation, they answered our questions and queries and were polite. They arrived on time, on the day arranged and made sure our water supply was only off for the minimal time. After the installation we had a small query, and our email was promptly responded to. We would definitely recommend Southgate and Culham they are competent and efficient.

Make no mistake, this is what good looks like. Kevin and his team go the extra mile and don't rest until the problem is fixed. Having slowly been losing hot water pressure and temperature, a detailed investigation yielded a couple of issues, and a new pressurized cylinder was installed as an emergency job in a matter of days. They have previously also replaced our oil boiler. The onsite team are approachable and friendly, as is Nikki who works in the office.

Faced with an emergency, we were very grateful to have discovered such an efficient, knowledgeable, competent and helpful company. We were very satisfied with all aspects of their service and highly recommend Southgate & Culham, Stowmarket. We had literally just completed the purchase of our new home and had no experience at all of oil fired central heating. Almost immediately we encountered three problems: a cold house; a Honeywell CM927 wireless thermostat control with a dead, blank screen - inoperable despite changing batteries; and overwhelming fumes in the room where the Worcester Heatslave II 25/32 combi boiler was located. Panic! Scrambling through the papers left by previous owners, and checking the service records at the back of the manual, we saw Southgate & Culham had carried out the original installation and the annual servicing until recent years. A phone call later and we were reassured that, at the very least, things would be made safe that day, and if at all possible, fixed too. The lovely engineer arrived, and worked quietly and competently - explaining exactly what the faults were, and what he was doing to fix them (including the annual service). At the end, the system was throughly tested, its operation throughly explained - including how to check the oil tank level, and what to do in any future emergency. He even helped us navigate an unfamiliar control for some under-floor electric heating. Brilliant service!

Second Annual Boiler Service undertaken exactly on time and to budget. Engineer was polite, helpful and offered informative advice and information during and following completion of work carried out. Will definitely use again for any future plumbing / heating requirements. Highly recommended.

Friendly, professional service, with plenty of helpful advice. Always delivered at a competitive price. First class!

Meeting booked for service. Arrival on time and work carried out quickly and efficiently. Very COVID aware process. Would highly recommend this business. We have used them for over 10 years and have always been fully satisfied.

Needing to replace our aged gas boiler we had several companies quote for the work and were advised, as we have a water softener, that we should fit a Viessmann boiler. Another problem was that the boiler had to fit into the existing cupboard. We phoned Viessmann who recommended Southgate and Culham so we asked them to quote. They were prompt, took on board and solved the fitting problems and also answered our subsequent telephone queries promptly. The engineer arrived on time, did an excellent job including moving the flue and making good the brickwork. The job was finished in the day and the kitchen was left clean and tidy. We would have no hesitation in recommending Southgate and Culham.

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.

Prompt quotation, turned up on time to do the work. Polite & courteous whilst in the house, cleared away all rubbish and did a great job of installing the new boiler. 'Did everything it says on the tin'. Many Thanks

Southgate and Culham installed our Worcester boiler a few years ago and have regularly serviced it. Nice to see the same engineer each time. Very reliable and have not needed any emergency work

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.

The response to our initial telephone call was very quick. The was completed very quickly and professionally.

I have used Southgate & Culham for over 5 years now and they have always done an excellent job. Having had them fit a new combi boiler and radiator they now perform the annual servicing for a very reasonable price.

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

Immersion heater appeared to have failed, however on first visit the engineer reported a loose electrical connection which on tightening appeared to restore working order. He was reluctant to incur my expense of changing it if not really necessary, so by agreement he left it in. There was no hot water next day so it was concluded to be an intermittent fault and he was asked to re-attend which he did a week later. This was entirely acceptable as heating water was possible by using the oil-fired boiler on water only as the alternative fuel. Upon his second visit the engineer replaced the heater and showed me the faulty one. The internal element casing was split in two places! I was pleased with the account when it arrived as I was only charged for one call-out fee. Good, thoughtful service all round.

We're hugely grateful that you came over straightaway (after office hours) to fix our leak. And thank you for your services and repairs. A super professional and efficient service.

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.

The amount paid was £450.92. Kevin had a mammoth task sorting out wiring which was left by the firm who fitted our new boiler a couple of years ago.We can’t recommend Southgate and Culham enough very pleased with their work. Prompt kept in touch very happy.

I had a new boiler installed by Southgate & Culham a year ago, and last week was my first annual boiler service. I haven't had any problems with this company and would highly recommend them to anyone wishing to have a boiler serviced or installed. One of the few companies that actually put the customer first and always get back to your messages! Thank you.

Had a 1st service on a boiler and system that they fitted a year ago, booked on Monday done on Wednesday. All good no problems.

I received very prompt attention when first contacting Southgate & Culham, including a visit to ascertain the problem with my boiler. Once a new boiler was decided it was installed within the week. The work was carried out with professional efficiency within 4 hours. I am extremely pleased with the result. Many thanks to the team at Southgate and Culham. I would highly recommend this trader. The "would you recommend this trader?" section below doesn't seem to be working as I can't indicate yes!

Company sent an experienced representative promptly and provided a quote that seemed reasonable. Work was carried out efficiently without mess or fuss and I would definitely recommend 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.

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.

I just wanted to thank you all at Southgate and Culham Ltd for the excellent job which was done installing the new boilers at our house. Starting with Kevin coming to quote for the job, Nikki in the office responded promptly to all my queries with great patience. Kevin and Wayne undertook the work very professionally, being quietly efficient, tidy and very pleasant & the works were completed on budget and without any delays - amazingly - during Covid lockdown. The aftercare information and service were also excellent. The joy of hot water and central heating both available again cannot be underestimated! I thoroughly recommend this company.

We first met Southgate and Culham when they were working for our daughter. They did a superb job there and being Worcester accredited came with excellent credentials. Following problems with a previous company, we were in need of a new boiler installation and pipe work make over. From the moment we rang Nikki for advice, we knew we were in safe hands. Although, because of their excellent service, the company is extremely busy, whenever I have telephoned Nikki has always been most helpful. As soon as we met Kevin to discuss our needs we had full confidence that our installation would meet our requirements and the installation be fitted efficiently and effectively. They were with us three full days, they needed to pop back for a short while on the fourth day to fine tune this system as they found another issue from previously pipe work, not their work, which needed rectifying. They fixed this additional fault with no problem. Kevin and Wayne have an excellent working relationship and they were a delight to have them work for us. Neat, tidy and excellent workmanship. We would highly recommend them for any work needing Heating Engineers.

We've used Southgate and Culham for many years now, starting with a new boiler installation at our previous house in 2015. In March 2019 the boiler in our current house died and Kevin and the team replaced it for us. We are limited for space where the boiler would have to be inside the house, so Kevin suggested an external boiler. This worked beautifully - and gave us added cupboard space in the kitchen as well, result! Every time we have dealt with them the outcome is the same, whether it's a full installation or a service. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality of work, parts and service, they are unfailingly cheerful and helpful and they are always looking for ways to do a more efficient job and, if possible, save the customer unnecessary expense. We know that they are just an email or a phone call away and we have never had any delays from them at all. They are also happy to offer advice even if it doesn't end up leading to work for them. We trust them completely and very much enjoy having them working in our home. Kevin has just completed the first service on our outside boiler and, as always, everything ran beautifully.

We recently had our old oil boiler serviced and several expensive spare parts replaced. Shortly afterward, unfortunately, decided to gurgle for a few days and then completely gave up the ghost. Understandably due to the current health situation, it seemed to be impossible to get anyone to come out to see what the problem was until we contacted Southgate and Culham. On hearing that we had no heating or hot water, and the emersion heater did not work either, despite it being a very busy period Nikki arranged for an engineer to call within a few days. As repairing the boiler was no longer an option we decided to have it totally replaced. All the team pulled out all the stops to get us a quote and fit the new boiler within a week from initially diagnosing the problem. The engineers arrived four days after the call out, Kevin and Wayne, who were both very friendly and professional and adhered to the current recommendations regarding COVID 19. The boiler was fitted and the degree of efficiency and competency was second to none. We would not hesitate to recommend this firm and their phone number is definitely now on our speed dial.

Unable to turn to heat off and house getting like a sauna. Phoned at about 10 am and the engineer was with us by 5 pm. Problems identified very quickly. All the required items needed were onboard and work completed within an hour. Everything has worked perfectly since and our thanks to Southgate and Culham for a speedy, efficient, and friendly service. We would recommend them to anyone without any hesitation.

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.

The company installed a new Viessmann boiler. It was a pleasure engaging with them from the initial phone call to arrange a quote, to arranging payment, to the installation day itself. Everyone I dealt with by phone and in person was friendly, cheerful and competent, with a willingness to answer all questions fully.

A very efficient service. Kevin gave us a price which he guaranteed and seemed very knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble unlike other companies who found lots of potential problems! Arrived on time, very neat and tidy. Explained the workings of the new boiler to us. I felt confident with them, which to me is of utmost importance.

The whole installation was carried out and completed very professionally as per quotation. Southgate and Culham arrived on time and were very helpful and considerate throughout the process. Communication was excellent and we would have no hesitation in recommending this company to family and friends in the future.

Very professional company - Kevin visited promptly and advised on best way to replace our failed gas boiler system with our preferred choice of Wissemann boiler and their quote was similar to those of several other firms but with a higher quality product. Date arranged, Wayne arrived bang on time and undertook the work extremely efficiently and was very neat and tidy. Kevin came along the following date and installed the new Hive controller and commissioned the system which all worked first time without issues. Whole job complete in under two days (other firms had quoted 3-4 days!). Great staff who did the job when arranged, in the time agreed, for the price agreed and were totally professional - and threw in some free advice about the mother-in-laws heating problems as well ! 100% recommended

My 22 year old oil boiler needed to be replaced. This was discussed during a visit in February 2019 during which all differences the new condensing boiler would have were pointed out and their consequences. This was very helpful as it enabled me to be fully prepared for the 2-day removal/installation in June 2019. I was able to select the date to suit me. The on-site work was completed on time and to the agreed quotation. My home was left clean, neat and tidy. The old boiler, piping, packaging and other debris were all removed from site. Kevin and Wayne did an excellent job. The new installation is working well and much appreciated. Some minor residual details have just been notified and I have every confidence they will be corrected as I have traded with this company for over 10 years.

Southgate and Culham installed a boiler for us nearly 5 years ago and since then they have attended a few smaller jobs for us. I have always found everybody to be friendly, very professional and trustworthy.

We had a site visit book but our boiler finally packed in so Southgate & Culham (Nikki) helped out by giving us a quote over the phone confirmed that our choice of boiler (Worcester Bosch ) were market leaders. Kevin then arrived 0n time to confirm all the details ,the quote came out cheaper than we though which in the light of our position (no hot water etc) was very refreshing. 3 days later Wayne the fitter arrived again on time and proceeded to fit our new boiler with no hassle or stress at any time just great re-assurance. The whole experience from start to finish has been 100% positive, and we feel very pleased to have been dealt with in such a totally professional way by a totally professional company.
