About

Tincknells serves customers across Somerset, Wiltshire, Dorset, Avon and south Gloucestershire. It’s already a well-known name in the South West, with a great reputation for integrity and customer service. Company director Rob Ormond and heating services manager Richard Beck both emphasise that Tincknells is a ‘modest’ company, concerned more with providing a good service than making a fuss about it. But its recent win could change all that.

Tincknell Heating Services is one wing of the long-established fuel business, Tincknell Fuels. ‘It’s a win for the industry,’ said Rob Ormond. ‘The fuel industry, which we’re part of, doesn’t always get the best press, but this is a really positive step.’
Winning the Which? Trusted trader of the year award and being elevated above the thousands of other businesses on the Which? Trusted Traders scheme means a lot to the company. But it’s adamant that this won’t change the way it works.

Quick response to call out for leak

We called Tincknells after discovering an oil leak. Their response was quick and covered by our service agreement. Engineer Steve Ingman identified a faulty hydraulic ram in the boiler which he replaced. He has usually carried out our annual boiler service (also covered by our service plan) in recent years and is always professional, competent, friendly and thorough, and keeps the work area clean and tidy.

Tincknell installed our current heating system a number of years ago. They have serviced and maintained the system annually ever since, keeping it running perfectly. The Tincknell engineers have always been friendly and efficient, carrying out the work promptly and to a good standard.

We had our boiler serviced today by Fin and just wanted to say that as usual we were very pleased with the professional service we have come to expect from Tincknell's. Fin is a very pleasant and polite young man and a credit to your company. Thank you Tincknell's, Kind Regards, Ruth & John Wearxx

Tinknells’s boiler serviceman arrived on time, was polite, efficient and completed the service quickly. He tidied up and cleaned around the boiler afterwards. He was cheerful friendly and very polite. Could not expect more, am very pleased with the service provided.

Our lpg central heating boiler broke down. We contacted Tincknells, who sent out an engineer the next day. When he found that it was beyond repair he explained the problem clearly and at our request arranged for a quotation for a replacement to sent within 24 hours. We accepted it at once, and arrangements for the work to be done were put in hand immediately, and adjusted to accommodate our need to be away from home for one of the days proposed. The works went exactly as planned and the installation team were friendly, polite, and very efficient.

Cold Showers in Winter - No Thanks!

Our boiler broke down just after Christmas. I called Tinknells Heating and an engineer arrived the same day. To repair it would have cost in excess of £500, so we elected to replace it as we guessed it was ancient. Ollie then came out to look at our sad, useless boiler and we had an estimate the following day. Unfortunately the plumbers merchants were all closed until 2 January, which meant cold showers for a week. I admit to improper language during that period. But first thing on 3 January, Ollie and Liam were on the doorstep, tools in hand! By 4pm that day, Beatrice Boiler was up and running. Hot showers were back. Both Ollie and Liam worked really hard all day, leaving everywhere clean and tidy. Thanks to them and the team back at base, Nick and Pat, who kept us updated throughout. We can’t recommend Tinknells highly enough.

Brrr... We're so pleased Beatrice has been keeping you toasty these past few weeks and that cold showers are now a thing of the past! Ollie and Liam have been notified of their job well done, and Nick and Pat in the office would be more than happy to speak with you if there's anything else you need - just give them a call on 01749 678828.

Fitting new boiler

Our boiler broke down on December 12th and we contacted Tincknells for a visit on the 13th. The boiler was not able to be repaired and the same day we received a visit to quote for a new boiler. By late afternoon on the 13th, we had a detailed quote for a new boiler which we accepted. The boiler has been fitted on December 21st/22nd. The engineers Liam and Liam were punctual, thoroughly professional and did a fantastic job installing the new boiler. The quality of their workmanship has been excellent and they left everything in a very clean and tidy condition. We have used Tincknells to service our boiler for the last 15 years and their service, as always, has been exemplary.

I have used Tincknells Heating for a number of years. They have proved to be reliable with a well trained workforce that do jobs to time and well. This replacement proved the same. A housecall to provide an estimate was undetaken , checks on heating requirements and an estimate of cost were all done very efficiently. On installation day, the team arrived exactly on time. Two very pleasant engineers who unerdtook the work well and left everything clean and tidy. Simply and excellent job!

I am so grateful to Nick for all his help when my oil tank had a leak. I haven't used Tincknells in the past but couldn't get any help from my usual oil supplier. Although they were already very busy, Nick arranged for Mike to visit the same day & in fact, I only had to wait for a few hours before his arrival. Mike was also really helpful, sealed the leak & promised a quote to be sent to me quickly, which it was. On the arranged day, Mike & Gary arrived promptly & did a great job, emptying out my old tank, completing the ground work, removing the old tank & installing the new one. Thank you so much guys for making a pretty stressful time much easier to deal with. I will happily recommend you to others & will be using you as my oil supplier in the future.
