This is the best experience in Colchester ever. My boiler was down and Gavin came up with an imminent slot so that I won't be left frozen in cold weather. He is efficient, punctual and professional. The fee is reasonable and you can't ask for more. Highly recommend to any locals =)

A company that always keep you updated with upcoming appointments and even contact you on the same day. Gavin did turn up later than was arranged, however he let me know in advance and even offered to re-arrange if it was going to be inconvenient for me. Once he turned up, shoe protectors came out, and he got to work in servicing the.boiler. Efficient, respectful, reliable and a friendly guy. Keep up the good work 😊

Rock-solid service GH Heating Services just get it done. Turned up on time, knew exactly what they were doing, and fixed the issue quickly and properly. Total transparency, photos of the work, clear explanations, and all prices openly listed on their website. No waffle, no surprises. With two Team GB athletes in the house, we don’t have time for hassle. When the heating goes, we need pros who show up and deliver at a fair price and that’s exactly what they do. Gavin and the team were reliable, approachable and genuinely cared about doing the job properly. Highly recommend — we’ll be booking them in for our yearly service. Stuart Jeffery

Gavin turned up within 30mins of me calling him on behalf of my son who had a gas leak, he located the source (valve in the boiler) ordered the part and fitted it as soon as it arrived. My son was very happy with the service and would definitely use GH heating services again.

Gavin completed work for my mum a couple of years ago, and since then we have continued to use his services for additional jobs. Throughout this time, he has consistently demonstrated professionalism and reliability. Gavin is friendly, approachable, and always willing to take the time to explain things clearly, ensuring we fully understand the work being carried out. He is honest, trustworthy, punctual, and maintains a very high standard of workmanship. He always leaves the area clean and tidy, with no mess left behind. I would highly recommend Gavin and his team to anyone looking for dependable and high-quality service.

We were recommended to GH Heating and Gavin in particular by our neighbours who were impressed by him. Gavin arrived at the designated time and asked me to describe the problem. I told him we had only lukewarm water for washing etc. After examining the system he told me that the cool water was due to a faulty valve and showed me the area that had caused the problem and what to look for if the water cooled again. Gavin took particular care to explain things to me. I felt confident that I could phone him if I was at all concerned.

Boiler Service today. Gavin provides an exceptional service. Always on time, clean and tidy, explains everything clearly, follows up with the certificates etc on the same day and is reasonably priced. Never any hard sell. I trust his advice and would thoroughly recommend him and his team for all your boiler and heating needs.

Absolute lifesaver! Gavin was amazing again!! ( As I had a problem with my boiler last year, too). He replied to my massage straight away and found the time to come and have a look and FIX it. He explained exactly what was wrong, showed me what had happened, and gave helpful tips on how to avoid the issue in the future, also fixed my thermostat. Very trustworthy and knowledgeable. Will definitely use them again and again.Thank you very much, Gavin! Highly recommend GH Heating Services Ltd.

This was Gavin’s first visit to do an annual service on my now 12 year old oil fired boiler. My previous engineer finally fully retired and I had been a bit nervous about someone new. I needn’t have worried! Gavin offers a very professional service from first contact right the way through. He arrived at the agreed time and after initially familiarising himself with the whole installation (oil tank as well), he got on with the job. He is friendly, punctual, happy to explain what he was doing. Left everything amazingly clean and provided a full service record. I am so pleased (and relieved) to have found this local company, in the knowledge that I can call someone reliable in case problems cropped up in the future. Thank you.

We are a medium sized business with Powermatic space heating, radiator office heating and hot water systems. GH Heating Services have always provided a reliable and cost effective solution for our servicing and upgrade requirements. Gavin has always turned up on time, with the correct equipment and just got on with it, no management required for our side. Thoroughly recommended.

No unnecessary charges and professional advise was given with no pressure for extra work. It is the second time I use the company service and I will continue to use them in the future! Fully recommend! 7 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
