New Central Heating Boiler installation
Customer Service

Value
For the past few years my central heating boiler had become unreliable and the installation of a new boiler was necessary. As I was going from a free standing boiler to a new combi boiler I was very apprehensive about all the work involved. I read the good reviews about Tower Heating, based in Formby, Merseyside and decided to contact the family run Company. Neil, the owner, arrived at the appointed time, checked, explained thoroughly all the details of the work involved with the repositioning of the new boiler. The comprehensive, professional estimate arrived when Neil said it would. I accepted the estimate, the staff in the office rang with the date of work to be carried out and kept me informed. The engineers, Chaise and Kieran, arrived on time on the date specified, were very polite, wore their protective face coverings, lay down dust sheets and immediately started the work. It was a three-day job, as expected. From start to finish the work was carried out totally professionally. Neil called in to ensure everything was going to plan. I now have a great new boiler, lovely heating and hot water with the confidence of great aftercare. So a huge thank you to all the staff at Tower Heating. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this Company and just wish all Companies could be the same.

We had our boiler and radiators replaced by Tower Heating. From providing a survey and quotation (Greg), to installation and testing (Chaise and Kieran) they were 1st class in all respects. The resulting new boiler and radiators are working highly effectively, the work was completed on time with little or no mess, with the finish to a very high standard at the price quoted. We would highly recommend Tower Heating if you’re looking to install or replace your central heating system.

I had not used Tower Heating before but thought their web site looked very professional and they appeared to have a strong local commitment to delivering good service. I contacted the company as I had a problem with a working boiler but no hot water coming out of any of the bathroom or kitchen taps. Keith and Will arrived on time and quickly identified the problem. They had the necessary spare parts on their van and were able to effect a speedy repair. Keith advised that I may experience a short term problem with air locks in the system. He called at 8.45 the next morning to check that all was well and returned in his lunch hour to complete the job. He also identified and replaced a defective tap. Very professional and focussed approach with a strong customer service ethos- unlike the previous plumbers that I have used for service and repairs. Highly recommended based on this job.

Lee checked radiator thermostat, checked a thermostatic radiator, added inhibitor to loft tank, used his safety ladder, and tackled the job cheerfully and speedily, then enlightened me on the work carried out plus a verbal review of the performance of our system.

Had an out-the-blue late night failure of our hot water and central heating system in the depths of winter. Rang Tower heating at 8.45am the next day and had the call immediately answered, with them pulling out all the stops to have Greg come conduct a survey and estimate on his way home from his usual workload that evening. Within a day, the new boiler was sourced and at every stage Tower Heating were able to exceed their promises with them juggling their schedules to get our heating and hot water up and running as fast as possible. Gordon and Tom B kept us up-to-date with their arrival and plans, showed up exactly when promised and had our system working a day earlier than expected. They explained everything they were doing to the house, worked quietly and were diligent with COVID practices and also managed to troubleshoot and solve other issues we had with our water and heating, that they fixed with no extra charge, one of which brought us great relief to finally have a working stopcock in the house! Gordon and Kieran came the day after they got us up and running to perform some finishing touches and set up our smart system, and their work was spot on and handled in a manner that exuded pride in what they were doing. At all times we felt confident and secure that we had some professionals doing things right. A big thank you, your help was much appreciated!

Tower Heating installed and commissioned our new boiler, replacing a 25 year old model. At the initial inspection (free of charge) our existing system was reviewed we discussed our requirements for the new boiler. The first stage of the installation was carried out within 5 working days (after which we had hot water & central heating) and the final balancing and finishing off completed five days after that. The team were thoroughly professional throughout the process and we are delighted with the finished product which has been installed far more neatly than the old system.

Tower Heating replaced our old regular boiler with a new 40 kw Worcester Combi. 12 old radiators were replaced with new and 3 other new installed. Old boiler and pipework, cylinder, loft tanks removed, new pipework including long pipe through walls under boards etc from gas meter to new boiler. All new radiators except two were of a different size, and were fitted with new straight pipes up from under floorboards, no elbows, extensions etc. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent advice given during our initial meeting, and then the work was carried out as planned, on time and to a high standard. The price represented fair value for the job. I have been a Which member for some 40 years and I have no hesitation in recommending Tower Heating as a Trusted Trader. I have also left a review on Google.

This is a great company to deal with. From the moment I rang the office to the post installation review the service was friendly and professional. Gordon, Chaise and Stuart did a fantastic installation of my new system boiler in a very confined space. They were hard working, very focused on doing the best job possible, clean and polite. Communication with Greg who oversaw the job and provided the survey and quote was excellent. He was very responsive at all times. I was apprehensive about replacing my boiler but needn’t have worried. It was a great job delivered on time, to specification and at the original quoted cost. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Tower Heating.

I don't normally provide feedback but in this case, I felt that the service given by Tower Heating was worth the effort. From the initial contact with Greg to the installation by George the service was courteous and professional; nothing was too much trouble and extra care was taken due to Covid. Everything promised at the initial survey was delivered on time and on budget.

We have just moved in to a 1930s house and a lot of work was required with respect to the heating. New radiators throughout the house along with a new boiler and repiping of the entire downstairs was required to get the house warm for winter. We are extremely grateful to Tower Heating for enabling this to happen and to such a high standard with excellent customer relation skills. The entire team was extremely punctual, professional, knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. I myself know nothing about plumbing and so it was great to meet the Tower Heating team who were extremely patient in explaining the various options to me without trying to force a sale - I genuinely felt that they were keen to provide me with the best heating/plumbing solution for our particular needs and that they were responsive approachable whenever any questions came up. I would particularly like to mention Greg who coordinated our jobs as well as Callum, Gordon, Will and Tom who were on site fitting the boiler, radiators and pipes and were fantastic tradespeople.

Thoroughly impressed with professionalism throughout, from the quote right through to completion. Clear itemised quote, good explanation of work involved, no hard-sell, accurate estimation of time needed to complete (3.5 days as predicted). James and Chase were quiet as they worked, tidied up really well at the end of each day, and they were neat and careful as they moved pipes. They were respectful of Covid-19 rules. There were a couple of problems along the way, but these were responded to as soon as was possible and they did not affect our view of the work completed. Thank you, highly recommended.

Very good booking process. Lee arrived dead on time, fully masked up and fully aware of social distancing. Our boiler is in the garage and he didn't come in the house which was welcome at these COVID times. Paid him with a cheque so I don't need to do anything else. The place was spotless after he had finished. I have used Tower heating last year after cancelling a well known gas service plan and very pleased with the way this has worked out. If your looking for a local high quality and friendly heating firm look no further.

I appreciate, at the onset of the pandemic, how difficult it must have been to choose between going without heating or having engineers in the house and I think your decision to wait and have the work completed when you did was spot on. We're really pleased that you were happy with our work and our service, but were especially pleased that you felt comfortable with the way George handled social distancing as we know this was a major concern.
