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.

Tincknell Heating are always very helpful. Allowing me my choice of service engineer. Olly Smart is very pleasant and efficient. He wasted no time and masked up even though I said he could take his mask of if he wished. I would stay a distance He checked all my radiators as I can no longer bleed them. (don't have the strength in my fingers!) I find their charges very fair. They are the best service engineers I've ever had. My daughter also finds this and always has them to deal with her Aga and oil fired boiler. The staff on the phone are always pleasant and helpful. Thank you, Tincknells!

Replacement Boiler Installation

From quotation to completion, this work has been handled very swiftly and efficiently. The engineers who carried out the work explained how they would undertake the removal of the old boiler, the need to re-site the replacement and the effect on our hot water and heating provision. All the work was completed well within the original time estimate and without any mess. We are very pleased with our new boiler.

The engineer was very efficient and carried out the work in a professional manner and kept me informed with what he was doing and on completion gave me a summary of the work and the condition of my boiler. I have no hesitation in recommending Tincknells for boiler servicing and oil delivery.

My son-in-law contacted Ticknells Heating to install a new oil-fired boiler. They were great from beginning to end. They even presented me with a lovely bunch of flowers when they had finished the work. Highly recommend Tincknells Heating.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Air source heat pump installation

We had an air source heat pump, UFH and radiators installed by Lee after he visited to survey our property prior to a major renovation. We had specifically sought out a Heat Geek accredited engineer for this work and Lee made an excellent job of the entire installation with the help of Ollie, managing to accommodate other trades as well as some timing issues with the build. The installation and commissioning were completed on time with no mess left behind. We're very happy with the after-sales service as Lee responded very quickly when we needed help to understand how the system runs. Would definitely recommend this professional and friendly company.
