Very happy with services provided. Second time we have called upon GH Heating who have provided prompt, courteous and very professional services each time – once for an old Boiler service last year and recently for a radiator issue. Response and communications are second to none. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to everyone. Thank you GH HeatingRead full review

Gavin is one highly professional individual he dealt with our commercial boilers when they broke down and was able to diagnose and rectify the issue accurately, he managed to create a temporary fix on the boilers to get them running, which he was then back within 24 hours to install the new parts. If your looking for a quick turn around, accurate diagnoses, informative and polite engineer to take care of your heating and gas needs then GH heating services is who you need, Gavin will now continue to maintain and service our plant rooms at our warehouse and our offices too, I will also be having him service my own boiler at home aswell.Read full review

Thank you Gavin, great work.Read full review
I have been using G H Heating for many years now, for the annual service on my central heating system and for any emergencies. It’s always easy to book and I get useful reminders when the appointments are due. I’ve had lots of different things that needed doing and a lot of remedial work on pipe work and radiators last year. After Gavins recommendation, I put the heating on for 20 minutes, each Sunday all through the summer months. It doesn’t heat up the house enough to be a nuisance but it keeps the old system ticking over and flushed through, so it’s not a shock to the system every October when I put it on for the first time, and it’s all seized up! Very successful and no problems with clogged pipe work this year. Gavin is very professional and courteous, and gets on with the job efficiently and thoroughly. He always wears shoe protectors to keep carpets clean and a mask to protect me from viruses as I requested. I am more than happy to recommend this company and pleased to have someone local as well. I’ve recommended him to friends as well.Read full review
It’s been a while since I’ve experienced a service as good as GH Services. I rarely write reviews but Gavin absolutely deserves the best recommendation there is. When I called about a faulty boiler, Gavin offered to come round the same evening to have a look. Unfortunately I had plans, so we arranged it for the next day. Gavin gave me an hour time window and called to let me know when he was on his way, so I knew exactly what was happening. Gavin solved my issue using his vast expertise and completed the job in an hour. His advice, knowledge and aftercare are of the highest calibre, as well as his professionalism. Another important point to note is their IT system. From the moment you call, you are sent links to their extremely efficient and user friendly internal system, which sets up an account and takes all of your details. It guides you through process and at the end of the job allows you to pay through it and gives you a job report as well as the invoice. It made the whole process smooth and incredibly easy. It’s mobile friendly too. I really can’t recommend enough. Thank you Gavin.Read full review
