Great company, no hesitation in recommending Gavin for boiler servicing and repairs. Keeps everything running great.Read full review
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 😊Read full review
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 JefferyRead full review

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.Read full review

We have just had a gas fire service with G H Heating Services Gavin was very knowledgeable and professional leaving us warm and cosy for the oncoming weather Would definitely recommend this company and will certainly use then again ThanksRead full review
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.Read full review
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.Read full review
Great service, reliable and friendly. The appointment was scheduled immediately and I received helpful reminders. The team works efficiently and with the adequate equipment. 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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Read full review

If you’ve ever tried to get a school boiler replaced, you’ll know the hard part isn’t the engineering.
