Good Service!
Friends of mine, an elderly couple, contacted me for advice after having their gas turned off at their meter for a leak detected within their property. This meant no heating when it was still cold. The leak was discovered during work to install a new gas main along their road. To make matters worse, the contractors called in gas engineers who condemned my friends’ boiler too when it had been working okay. I called Mat who responded quickly and arrived exactly when he said he would. He soon identified and fixed the leak and upgraded the internal pipework to meet current gas regulations. He then restarted the boiler, did the necessary checks for carbon monoxide etc and to date it’s been running fine. My friends were delighted with the service Mat gave, and thought his bill was very reasonable.

An excellent service. Matt confirmed we needed a new boiler and our chosen one was installed today with the minimum fuss and disruption. We were given 3 boilers to choose from all of which was suitable for our home. I would recommend this company to anyone in the Cranham and Upminster area.

When my boiler wouldn't start I realised I would need a boiler engineer round to fix it, obviously a bill I could do without, I came across The Boiler Replacement Company details online and as they were local I put the call in, an engineer came round later that morning. My fears came alive that I need a replacement, They quickly provided a cost and it was better than I thought, the following day it had been installed. An excellent service, with quality workmanship and great VALUE for MONEY!

I had a new boiler installed by this company, they were realistic in price and were flexible with cost based on a realistic budget. The contractor (Matthew) talked through my options and advised me accordingly based on what I could afford, not based on how much money he could get out of me, like some other companies do. Flexible with appointment times that were convenient to my lifestyle. I would highly recommend this company as being an honest and trustworthy service to meet anyone's needs.

Matt fitted our new boiler and radiators in every room in April 2015 and did a superb job. We wanted to see how our heating would be before writing a review and we are so pleased with the performance it is giving us. He worked flat out while here and was tidy and took a lot of care. We would highly recommend Matt and it's really great to have finally found a Plumber to be able to trust and rely on. He has serviced our boiler and we wouldn't hesitate to call on him for advise. A job well done! Thanks Matt we really appreciate the hard work you put in to make house so homely.Heather & Kevin.

I was looking for a gas safe registered heating engineer to service a boiler for me in a second property. I was recommended Mat via Facebook and he came round to introduce himself and discuss the job. He went to the property the following day and found the boiler in the property needed to be replaced, He provided me with photographic evidence of this. I was really impressed with the expertise and service provided by Mat and after receipt of the quote for the work I asked him to go ahead. Due to the seriousness of the problems why the boiler needed replacing I asked if he could fit this in quickly for me. Mat was very accommodating and changed his diary to fit my job in. I can honestly say that I would recommend Mat, his work is excellent, he provided photos and a video of the work as it was happening, his prices are reasonable and he knows his trade very well.

Its not often these days that ones faith in humanity is restored. Everyone claims to be the best at what they do and at the best price. I have had the recent pleasure of this being demonstrated and proven to me first hand by Matthew Baker and his team at The Boiler Replacement Co. To have a 40 year old boiler replaced seemed an ovewhelming task on its own but obtaining the three quotes from heating engineers seemed even more daunting. So the process began in earnest with the added pressure of a party of 6 family members due to arrive from Canada on the 4th of November. Knowing that the old boiler was not going to stand up to 8 people in the house the decision had to be made quickly and when I met Matthew I knew he was the man for the job. He assessed the house, the existing boiler and heating system: everything was checked from the gas meter to the actual water pressure from the mains. He emailed me an exact and comprehensive quote that dissected the job into precise detail. A complete breakdown of what I would be paying for. Matthew and his team arrived day one at 8am and worked diligently on the job from start to finish over the next few days. The team worked hard to pull the job together to completion in a seamless and professional manner. Exemplary craftsmanship: removing the old boiler/the existing cylinder/loft tank and then installing the new boiler/replacing some old copper piping/9 shiny new radiators. The real star of the show? The beautiful ATAG Boiler!

Before I start the review, for anyone reading this with a view to get a quote from Mat. The ATAG boiler is a premium unit. It has transformed everything water related in our house. What do you get for your money in terms of labour for combi upgrade from the old Boiler/water cylinder type setup from Mat's team. Two professional plumbers that take great pride in their work, are diligent, amicable, hard working (They both worked liked trojans for the three days they were there). Tidied up after themselves, discussed problems with me and various options. They additionally carried out carpentry to ensure the cupboard that enclosed the boiler was modified to take the new unit. My mind was completely set at ease with everything they were doing. Great job, I can't fault them. Fantastic value for money, they really earned it.

Matt and his team installed a new atag combi boiler and controller re-routed and upgraded the gas pipe, hot and cold water pipes were also renewed.The old boiler, cylinder, tanks and old pipework were removed. All this work was carried out to an extremely high standard with Matt updating me regularly letting me know how things were proceeding, the house was always left spotless at the end of each day. The job was finished on time and budget Matt has phoned to check that the installation is working fine and to get in touch if I have any problems in the future I would very highly recommend Matt and his team to anyone wanting there boiler or central heating upgraded.
