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.

We have just had a new boiler fitted and I wanted to leave my praise for the work that was done. Mike, Gary, and Jamie were prompt and very efficient in pouring the concrete pad for our new external boiler the week before the installation, and Kes, Mattie, and Cruz, who did the boiler installation, were exceptional. Clear communication, very careful, neat, and precise workmanship, and incredibly helpful -- going well above what was necessary in helping us make better use of the space and preparing for our future renovation. This was a 10/10 experience -- would happily recommend to anyone looking for a new boiler.

My mother suffers from dementia and lives alone. Her boiler broke down and was condemned during a very cold snap. Nick sent someone out the same day to assess the situation and to provide a quote. Within a week the new boiler was fitted and commissioned and my mum could return to her warm home and familiar surroundings. No mess, no fuss, just as you would want it. As a very thoughtful gesture mum also received a bouquet of flowers to welcome her back home, courtesy of Tincknells. I can happily recommend this company.

We moved into our new home in January 2017 and the heating system came on at odd hours with no control of the temperature either freezing or boiling despite going online to work out how to set the manual 'pin style' timer. We spoke to Tincknells about our issues, they visited assessed the situation. A quote was provided the next day clearly confirming the cost to replace the manual timer with a digital timer. The work was carried efficiently and the engineer kept our property clean and tidy. Whilst doing a service they also picked up the boiler had not been installed correctly and they rectified this, making our system safe and legal! We are now in control of the heat in our home. Fantastic and Trustworthy workmanship, will recommend them to friends and family with no hesitation.

Tincknells carried out an excellent job fitting our new boiler. They were tidy and polite and we now have a wonderfully warm house. Our only downside was having to wait a few weeks before they could start - but this is no doubt proof of what a great service they offer - they were fully booked by other customers.

Hi Veronica, thank you very much for you kind review and comments. I am pleased to hear we were able to restore your warm house. We always try our best if there is some urgency on installing a new boiler to provide a quick turn-around. During bad weather periods this can be difficult as a lot of customers are unfortunately in the same situation but we certainly do our best to fulfil all expectations. We will always try to rearrange any non urgent calls to accommodate customers to the best of our ability. I will be sure to pass on your comments to our installation team and I hope you have many years of trouble free use out of your new boiler. I do hope we can be of service to you again in the future. With warmest regards from everyone @ Tincknell Heating.
Excellent work.
