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.

I would highly recommend Tincknells. They installed a new boiler in a difficult position and against the demands of an ancient house. This was done with great care and professionalism. 'Blips' after were dealt with very speedily.

Due to the expiry of our old heating system we made enquiries of Tincknells to purchase a new central heating system, they were very prompt to quote and even quicker to fit once we gave the go-ahead. Everything converted and up and running in three days. A tidy job well done.

I had run out of oil. I phoned at 8:30 & the oil was delivered, 14 miles by 10:00am. I have been dealing with Tincknells for 50 years (I am 93) and they have never let me down - acted promptly & efficiently. They are all very polite & helpful at all times. (I may say that this isn't the first time I've run out of oil). Highly recommended.

I am particularly grateful for the speed with which you have installed my new boiler. I was managing with a log fire - but the logs were running out & would not have lasted another week, so thank you. Jamie & Steve were splendid - good workers, finished on time & everything left clean & tidy. And thank you for my beautiful flowers, quite unexpected.

This firm has been a great help over many years but particularly during the last 2.5 years when my husband has been disabled and housebound. Both he and I are in our very late eighties and their responses have always been prompt and helpful. To use an old phase they are the best of British!

We discovered a small leak in our combi boiler heating system. The leak was under new flooring, invisible, causing no apparent damage. Tincknells came to check it on the day I called and suggested an ingenious re-piping avoiding the need to pull up the floor. Senior engineer Lee came by a day later to confirm the prognosis and discussed various details and options. Lee was very invested in how the finished work would look in the house, not to mention the improvement to our heating system. We had a detailed estimate a day or two later. Work was scheduled at a convenient time and started exactly on schedule. Team of three (Lee again with Ollie and Liam) did the work in less time than forecast. Their work was absolutely meticulous, the new system is great. The overall cost was very reasonable. It is a pleasure to have Tincknell Heating work on our house. I cannot recommend them more highly.

Although as heating engineers they were unable to deal with my particular problem, Nick, who answered the phone, went out of his way to call me back twice and provide me with suitable choice contacts who would be able to assist me. I will certainly be in contact with them again to service my central heating, when this becomes due.

We arrived at our holiday home in Upottery, Devon on 21st December to find that the heating wasn’t working properly. We reported it to our caretakers and Bob from Tincknell Fuels came out the next day. He soon found out what the problem was but the parts had to be ordered and hopefully fitted before Christmas. He also showed us a way we could get the heating going manually to get us through. He came back on Christmas Eve and fitted the part. I found Tincknell Fuels to be very helpful and professional and a special mention for Bob - friendly, courteous and got us warm for Christmas. I would recommend this company to anyone.

Tincknells have just installed a new boiler in our church. The experience has been superb from Lee's initial visit to do the quote to Liam and Ollie installing it. They were helpful, polite and considerate and careful workers, leaving everything really tidy. Thank you. Engineers, Liam, Ollie and Lee.

4 installers arrived on time, 2 to replace oil boiler and 2 to replace oil tank. The work was completed in one day and left no mess. They also fitted a replacement radiator I had at home. The work was done in a professional manner with no problems. One man returned 3 weeks later to check that all was well.
