I had problems with an old unserviced gas heating system. Darryl accurately diagnosed the problems and remedied the faults. The system runs much better since his visit.
I can highly recommend this family business . I've called Darryl out to my last 2 homes and wouldn't hesitate again . Good trades are hard to find so give this guy a call .
Absolutely brilliant, quick and precise. Would highly recommend Darryl and Hughes Heating Ltd
We were very pleased with the service offered from the initial prompt response, through the advice given to choose the product, to the finished job. Communication, both face to face and via texts, was very good. Much care and interest was taken throughout.
I have used Darryl a few times now. Very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend!
Darryl has serviced our boiler and installed a new suite in our downstairs toilet. We found him to be very professional, easy to talk to and explained everything he was doing thoroughly. The standard of workmanship is very high and we would without a shadow of doubt, recommend him to all our friends and family. The most important quality I observed was that Darryl was very conscientious about his work and prides himself on doing a good job, which is a rare thing these days.
I have used Darryl (Hughes Heating) twice now, once for a central heating problem and now for a plumbing issue. He has done a great job both times. Arrives exactly at the time he says he will, and gets the job done in a professional and friendly manner. I would definitely recommend him.
Great guy great plumbing engineer we have used Darrell for a few years now. We are very happy with his work and would recommend him to others. 😄
Had a cowboy allegedly complete a full service which has led to a number of issues. Darryl has fixed it and charged a very reasonable amount. Hughes Heating (no relation) has also done work to a high standard at a rental property. Can strongly recommend.
A solition providing knowlegable trustworthy profesional. Will use again.
Darryl is a reliable helpful explains everything that he’s done or needs doing and a very pleasant would highly recommend him reasonably priced as well
We have used Darryl a couple of times, for a gas fire decommission and then to replace an old/worn out bar shower with a new one. Superb service from him, fairly priced, punctual , efficient, friendly and professional, I would not hesitate to get Darryl back for future work and also have peace of mind using a gas safe registered person, we will be using him to service our gas boiler instead of paying British Gas Homecare as they do not do as thorough a service as what Darryl would.
Disappointing . Our boiler had no documented history after we moved in but was in full working order so we requested a full service. Darryl was unable to restart the boiler after completing the work and as result told us we could need to call out the manufacturer at large expense to us just before Christmas as he could not fix it. They told us damage had been caused to numerous parts from getting wet during the service. Darryl refused to accept any responsibility for this.
Very impressed with HUGHES heating LTD. My heating hasn’t been working and I needed a flush of my boiler. Very reliable turned up when said he would, talked through everything he was doing, good price. Very happy thank you so much
Daryl @ Hughes Heating LMD ….Ashford Kent Extremely professional, Extremely prompt , And reliable Service .

Kind regards Janet stock
Daryl replaced my ageing boiler this autumn. I wanted a Veissmann boiler which was installed into my existing system and has run without any issues. He is easily reachable, very good at his job and is reasonably priced. Would highly recommend for any boiler servicing needs.
Arrived on time and did the work as agreed. Very polite and gave some good advice. Will use your services again
Darryl does an excellent job and is very competitively priced. Clears up after he has finished and explains everything he has had to do. Have used him for 3 jobs now and would highly recommend him. Will be using him for my annual gas boiler service from now on.
Daryl did a brilliant job. Boiler broke leaving us with no heating or hot water just as weather got colder. Daryl responded to initial call out within hours, diagnosed issue, ordered parts and mended the boiler all within less than 24 hours. He gave a clear guide to pricing and issue. Fast, efficient, polite and reasonable price service. Would definitely recommend and will be using him again to service and deal with any further issues. Thank you Daryl
I couldn’t recommend Hughes Heating Ltd more. Darryl was friendly and professional from first contact through to completing the job. He took time to explain exactly what he was doing and also to help me understand the new heating control system he installed. Really reasonably priced too! Will definitely be a repeat customer if and when we ever need Darryl’s services!
Darryl was very helpful and professional throughout the installation of our air source heat pump. He was available to answer any questions we had. We would have no hesitation in recommending him for you plumbing and heating needs
I cannot praise Hughes Heating Ltd more highly , Daryl is very competent and tidy worker , knows his trade and is very reasonable you can be assured of obtaining best price with no fear of being over charged . We had a new Vaillant boiler fitted 1 yr ago and has just had it’s first service carried out by Daryl of Hughes Heating Ltd have had no issues during this time any queries that we had initially were quickly sorted using a combination of Vaillant Cust servicing and Hughes Heating Ltd . Excellent job
I have used Hughes Heating for a variety of jobs now and have been impressed. Darryl is personable, highly responsive and consistently reliable. His work is professional, represents good value for money and I have no hesitation in commending his company to you
Have used Hughes Heating a couple of times now to fix some leaking pipework, replace the drain plug upon our shower and to tap off an old gas line to an unused fireplace we removed. Each time the work was completed to a high standard, on time and for no more than the initial competitive quote. Very friendly, knowledgeable and reliable - can not ask for more and would have no problem recommending or using again.
Daryll arrived promptly and completed the service of my boiler efficiently. He gave a detailed account of the boiler condition so I know what may happen in future. He also sends annual service reminders which is helpful. Good price charged for the service! Highly recommended.
Darryl did a great job from start to finish. We wanted to move from gas to electric and wanted a 120L cylinder and a water softener so it can mitigate the hardness of Kent's water. He was prompt with all his quotes and actions. Everything was done in 3 days from removal of the gas central heating, tanks and the remaining radiators to installation of the new cylinder and softener. Highly recommend him, and will keep him updated with how the Monarch Midi HE goes And he made a fast and loyal friend of ours dog Amos 🤣😅
Darryl arrived on time and did the job quickly and was extremely tidily. Great young man, very friendly and certainly knows his profession to a T! Will definitely use again,
Installed a new combi boiler in the time stated. Very pleasant and gets on with job.
Excellent, third year he has serviced our boiler and as usual, a good job.
I would highly recommend Darryl for any heating related services. He is highly knowledgeable and hard working. Additionally, he also provided impartial advice ensuring the boiler and heating installation was suitable for our needs as a customer.
I had my boiler serviced quickly and very efficiently. I mentioned a plumbing issue that was concerning me and within a day Darryl had offered a solution and resolved the problem.I would not hesitate to recommend this company. Friendly and reliable.
Fantastic service and a great guy highly recommend thank you hughes heating
Absolutely fantastic. Great job and great value with excellent communication throughout. Our new "go-to" for jobs 👌
Came across Hughes Heating Ltd, when I had a problem with my boiler back in December 2024. I remember Darryl very well because from the moment he answered my call, he tried to help me out as best as he could over the phone. I have to say that was the first time I had ever experienced someone going the extra mile, and I have used a number of plumbers in the past. Needless to say, Darryl is now my forever plumber now. Just recently had my boiler serviced and again, top class service, throughly explained everything, extremely tidy, professional, reliable and reasonably priced. Well done, and thank you.
Darryl Hughes did some fantastic work in our property, and he is also a really nice bloke to chat to. He did a central heating system flush, installed a new radiator, did a boiler service, and carried out a boiler repair. He arrived on time and carried out all work to a high standard, explaining to us what was needed. Highly recommend Darryl/Hughes Heating - 5 STARS.
Amazing service. I called with an emergency i had a leak from the mains supply in my kitchen. Within a few hours all fixed. Will definitely use again and will recommend to others
Darryl did a great job fitting a new boiler for me. He was able to visit and give a very reasonable quote within a few days and then returned to complete the job. He was punctual, polite and helpful. I would highly recommend him!
Darryl promptly came over to fix a leak with our boiler, he carried out excellent work, was tidy, professional and explained the work he had carried out clearly. As another separate issue arose, we had to get a whole new boiler. Darryl again came round quickly with great advice on what one to go for etc. It was fitted without and issue and the nest thermostats programmed back in too. Overall great service and would highly recommend
Darryl Hughes is courteous, punctual and a neat and tidy worker. He did a very good job of sorting out the poor workmanship of the previous plumber who installed my bathroom. The toilet finally works as it should since Darryl replaced some of the pipe work and plumbed it in properly.
Darryl was an absolute star, serviced my old combi boiler and discussed options to replace it as it was over 10 years old. Talked me through various options and payment plans with zero pressure. When i was ready to replace it he sorted everything out disposed of the old one and fitted the new one within a working day at a reasonable price compared to options companies like Homecare had to offer. A man who clearly enjoys his work. Highly recommend!
We asked Darryl to quote us to upgrade all our radiators, but when he came round he noticed they all needed balancing. Doing this has resulted in a much warmer house and saved us thousands. If you want a genuine, hard working plumber / heating engineer, I would have no hesitation in recommending Darryl (Hughes Heating Ltd)!
Darryl : 🌟 Turned up on time Worked tidily and efficiently Did a proper no cutting corners job Discussed ideas and checked with me during his work Didnt smoke or waste time Respected my Home Gave attention to detail Has a lovely polite cheerful manner Will ask him back for future work . Wish more tradespersons would be like Darryl . 🌟 Helen - Hythe Kent .
Has installed extra pipework and radiators from an existing system into an extension. Worked well around different stages of the build and has been reliable and professional throughout. Very reasonable prices and now have him back for anual boiler servicing. Would highly recommend.
Daryll is a fab professional. He explains jobs in detail,very trustworthy and very reliable, always responds quickly when I contact him. Very respectful when doing work in my home. A very friendly man who is my forever plumber. I feel good supporting his local business and prices are very good. You won't be disappointed using his service
Fantastic experience with Darryl! He is very punctual, completed the job on fitting a new 3 port valve to an exceptional standard, and took the time to explain everything clearly. His professionalism and attention to detail made a big difference. He will be my point of contact for any future plumbing jobs. Highly recommend!
We have just had Darryl replace a complete central heating system with new combi boiler in a 1960 semi for my father who is 96. Although we moved him out during the installation and left Darryl with keys, when we visited unannounced there was lots going on, all very well managed with surprising minimal mess and disruption. What a great job he has done throughout and his quote was thousands cheaper than British Gas. Excellent job and a friendly honest chap. Thank you Darryl.
We called Darryl having had some bad experiences with plumbers/central heating engineers who had been sent by our insurance company. Darryl arrived promptly and immediately fixed the two faults in the system. He also identified some other issues which resulted from poor system installation. Excellent work and service.
Hughes heating has provided an excellent service providing all solutions to our heating problems. I would highly recomend to anyone.
Daryl was quick and efficient!! He was very clear on what was done and even offered post installation support.
Darryl was great, very prompt and communicative. Our boiler was in need of some extra work and Darryl was super clear on what exactly needed doing, what the cost would be and when it would be fixed. I’d highly recommend him and will be booking future boiler related works with him.
