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 found Tincknells very professional in all aspects from providing a quotation following a visit from their engineer to agreeing dates and completing the job which in our case was not straightforward. We could not recommend them more highly. They were Superb.

Replacement Oil Tank and relocation of Boiler
Customer Service
Quality
Value
We required a new Oil Tank as the old tank was showing signs of splitting. At the same time we took the opportunity to move the location of our existing boiler and fit a new oil line. We contacted 5 tradespersons to quote for the works. Tincknell Fuels provided the most efficient service of all the tradespersons from start to finish. The initial contact with the Office was handled very professionally with immediate email responses and confirmations of site appointments. Bearing in mind that this was during the covid pandemic! From that initial contact, the site visits were carried out well and we were informed of our options. The quotations that followed were clear and concise and as it happens also very competitive. The works were carried out in 2 tranches and again because of covid moved at my request with no hesitation. On the dates in question, the workmen turned up on time and completed the works as stated in the timescale mentioned with the minimum disruption. The follow up calls were very kind and flowers received by my wife were a lovely touch. I have never written a review before but I have no doubt in thoroughly recommending Tincknell Fuels for the outstanding service and customer support throughout what is a daunting process. Our thanks goes to the whole team for their great service.

Replaced Oil Tank

My oil tank developed a crack and needed replacing. New regulations meant that the tank needed to be re-sited further from the garage and my fence. I was very happy with the work. They arrived at 9.30 am and were finished at around 4.00 pm. They have always been a satisfactory company to deal with over the past 16 years.

Boiler replacement and system upgrade.

Excellent right through from survey of works required to installation and commissioning. Old oil fired internally located boiler was removed with careful consideration for making good afterwards. External new boiler fitted and system converted from natural head to pressurised with a full system flush included. Excellent specification of works and plan for scheduling the right labour for the job. Very pleased with the on-site management during the entire process and efficient office support. The improvements in our heating & hot water efficiency and effectiveness have made the whole job well worthwhile.

Good job installing new oil tank

The installation was carried out exactly as stated on the original plan, including transferring the oil from the old tank and removing that tank for recycling. There was no mess, no oil spillage and instructions were left both in paper form, and verbally. Thank you, Mike and Gary, we are both very pleased with the work done And the bunch of flowers on completion was a very nice touch. Highly recommended!

Excellent job replacing heating boiler

This was a fairly complex job replacing an old oil fired boiler with modern Worcester Greenstar boiler. Despite having to work under Covid restrictions and at a busy operational time, Tincknell team worked very efficiently at both problem solving in my system and installation of the new boiler. Throughout, their team took time to explain what they were doing and how the new installation would work. I am very pleased that I selected Tincknell and feel that I have benefitted from their vast experience.

This was an annual service conducted on my central heating boiler. I found the engineer who did this service extremely thorough and very competent . My opinion has been fully justified by the fact that my heating system has never worked as satisfactorily as it does now. Furthermore the engineers manner was pleasant and helpful. He proved to be exceptionally good at his job.

A credit to their profession

After moving into our new home in early January, we discovered an existing issue with our oil tank which prevented oil delivery. The response to our issue from Tincknells was nothing short of incredible. The support, communication, level of service and general guidance through being new to oil was second to none and without their help and support the initial stress and challenge would of felt much worse. They supported our resolution quickly, pulling out all the stops to support me and my family for which I'm massively grateful and appreciative. The team from Nick and Neil, the installers and the drivers have been 1st class throughout and an absolute to credit to their business. I'll be using Nick, Neil and the team ongoing now and would recommend them without hesitation.

First rate from enquiry to completion about 2 weeks. Nick, the installation manager very helpful. Throughout the 2 days install no water for about 30 minutes. Lee and Jamie very tidy , overall I'm very happy with the job and to recommend them. Being a local firm means someone can respond quickly if any problems.

When it became evident that the old boiler was on its last legs Tincknells organised a replacement incredibly quickly. Everyone we dealt with was very friendly and helpful, and the work was done efficiently and unobtrusively. The two people who installed the boiler gave the impression that nothing was too much trouble and they left everything spotless. We would definitely recommend them.
