As a long standing customer of Davey and Gilbert i would highly recommend them for their professionalism and great customer service. They fitted a new Bosch gas boiler with a 12 year warranty! i must say i cant believe how efficient it is. They also fitted Heatmiser Neo control panels around the house which can also be controlled by an App on your phone giving much better control of the whole system. Great Job Thank you.
Excellent service and a great price to wire up a garage conversion. The electrician who carried out the work was brilliant and all done within the time available.
Davey and Gilbert have provided first class maintenance for me since 2019. This includes electric, plumbing gas safety and boiler maintenance. They have also done some great trouble shooting when problems have occasionally arisen. They are easy to deal with, and to have around the house when working. They provide a high quality service and I can thoroughly recommend them.
Very happy with installation of new boiler. Very quick, professional and friendly service
Extremely helpful in proposing an alternative solution to difficult circumstances. Installation quick, efficient and tidy. excellent communication.
Davey & Gilbert have assisted in the successful delivery of a project for Wessex RFCA at Truro ATC. Communication throughout the process has been excellent, and Mark and Tom have been professional, helpful and responsive from start to finish. It has been a pleasure working with the team, and their support in bringing the project to completion has been greatly appreciated. Thank you to everyone involved. Paula.
Excellent service - fast response and fixed leak. thank you.

Amazing service all round. Quick, professional and helpful on every step. Couldn't recommend enough!
I cannot recommend Davey & Gilbert highly enough! Their response time, communication, professionalism and standard of work is outstanding. Thank you to all the team members.
Absolutely first class service from Davey and Gilbert - in particular a huge thanks to Jon Pickhaver. Efficient, tidy, communicative and no nonsense problem solving. Would not hesitate to recommend!
We have a rental property in Marazion. I was notified the toilet flush was continually running and I was unable to come and look at it myself. I phoned one plumber and left a message but no response. I then tried Davey & Gilbert and a very polite individual answered the phone, took details and sent in a Plumber to deal with the problem. I was advised of cost and the plumber phoned me when at the property and got authorisation to fit new parts, which he had on the van. Everything sorted and fully repaired. From the initial contact through to the completion of the job they have been a very professional and efficient company to deal with. Top marks to Davey & Gilbert and many thanks for your help. Tony Milnes
I couldn’t be more pleased with the service provided by Davey and Gilbert. From initial call, quote through to installation; everything was completed neatly, on time and exactly as quoted. Trustworthy, reliable and a pleasure to deal with and I am loving having hot water again. A particular thank you to Sam, Matt and Lee for doing such a great job. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Davey & Gilbert Plumbing & Electrical team are brilliant! We used them as we had a leak in our water pipe. They were quick and professional, making the experience seamless from start to finish. Great fast service, good price and communication. Thank you.
We needed a plumber at short notice late on a Friday afternoon and Davey & Gilbert rode to the rescue. Superb job done in very quick time with no mess or any residual issues. Why would you take a plumbing issue to any other business!
Brilliant work,can't fault anything, Ashley the electrician very efficient and credit to the company.
Once again Davey and Gilbert have done a first class job for me. From my initial phone call to the jobs being carried out the service was very professional; first class.
I have used this company before and their service is always excellent. They are punctual, polite, clean and efficient workers. Communication in all areas of the company works smoothly. I have no hesitation in recomending them.
Many thanks to Sam, Lee and Matt for helping me out of a tricky situation. The quick service saved the day and was much appreciated. The work was carried out professionally and with a smile in spite of the very hot weather. Not a pleasant thing having to do work in the loft in the midst of a heat wave. Thank you all at Davey & Gilbert Plumbing!
EV Charger install. Slightly complicated installation as a long distance from house to drive. Superb service - nothing too much trouble - Thoroughly professional.
Great service again. Thanks for the work done 👍

Brilliant friendly & efficient service again. Thank you
As always a professional and friendly electrician, Ash, fitted new Heatmiser thermostats and repaired a faulty valve. Took time to explain the system and help set up the app for remote control. A delight to have around. Very satisfied customers.
From the booking to the actual boiler service this company were excellent. The boiler service was very thorough and the engineer was extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend
Employed Davey & Gilbert to produce a Domestic electrical certificate report, from start to finish it was a pleasure to do business with them they booked my work in, collected the keys from a estate agent and carried out the work when they said they would. Report came back in record time for a reasonable price. I certainly will be using their wider electrical services in the future
Great service, highly recommended :)
Very friendly engineer, tidy and respectful. Excellent service as always from Davy and Gilbert

As always very pleased with the workmanship received from this company! Very thorough and left everywhere immaculate! Would definitely recommend them! 😊
I have used Davey & Gilbert a few times now for plumbing work and thoroughly recommend them. They arrive when they say they will, charge what they quote, and do a great job without leaving any mess. I have always found their staff to be professional, polite and pleasant to deal with. Excellent service.
Absolutely brilliant service. Efficient and professional. Tidy job. Thankyou.
Fantastic communication and understanding when things haven’t quite gone to plan, especially on the Isles of Scilly! Great company, highly recommend at getting the job done 👍
I used Davey & Gilbert on two occasions last month and were extremely impressed with their service on both. They were wonderful in resolving both issues quickly and professionally, making the experience seamless from start to finish. Communication was 5-star throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Davey & Gilbert and will be using them again in the future!
As always top notch service from D&G, booking was exceptional, they came out when agreed! The engineer was professional, polite and respectful of our home. Highly recommended!
Prompt service. Great team of guys. All work done to a high standard.
Great job from Jon, really knows his stuff and explained it all very clearly. Would highly recommend 👌
Very happy, have used for broken combi boiler and replacement hard wired smoke detectors. Gave good advice and I was happy with the costs. Very fast appointments and fixes. I didn't get different quotes as the pricing was clear and they are a big well established firm. Definitely use again, thank you
Phoned to ask if they could connect a dual fuel cooker, visit booked for next day. Can`t fault that speed of service. Would highly recommend
Everyone at Davey & Gilbert have been excellent, as always, with our new boiler installation! Thank you all for all of your hard work, expertise and swift response in providing the new boiler when our old one finally gave out.
Amazing service. I booked these guys for a gas safety certificate in my food van. Brilliant service John plumed a new griddle and fixed a burner issue while he was there. Very reasonably priced. Can’t recommend highly enough 🤩
Excellent service once again from the Davey & Gilbert team. Professional, responsive and friendly and all works completed to a high level of quality.
Engineer turned up on time, was very pleasant, and explained what had been carried out. Good customer service 👍
Brilliant company. Very knowledgeable and sorted our issue out efficiently and left the cottage as if they had never been!
Very pleased with electrical work carried out to garage by Davey ^ Gilbert Plumbing & Electrical Services. I have used this company for both Plumbing and Electrics for nearly 10 years and I highly recommend them for their reliability and excellent workmanship. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
I have used Davey and Gilbert for heating and electrical work over several years, and have found them to be reliable and professional in all matters.
Davey & Gilbert clearly understood the requirements of the job, turned up on time and effectively cured the problem. Great experience all round...

Prompt inspection of boiler leak, knowledgeable and reassuring engineer Dominic diagnosed wind driven rain into flue due to extreme weather conditions. Boiler checked and working normally. No further leaks. Very satisfied with the service.
Very happy with the oil boiler installation from Davey & Gilbert which was completed seamlessly.
We had a problem with our boiler where the heating and hot water should’ve been on (no error messages etc) on the boiler screen and yet nothing was working! Jason spent time on the phone to us going through it all and then kindly sent the lovely Dan to our place to sort it. It was pouring with rain and Dan was outside fixing the boiler issues with no complains! He was super patient when our dog was barking and genuinely a really kind and friendly chap! Both Jason and Dan were clearly knowledgable of their field and really helped us! Dan fixed the issue and we are now lovely and warm! Great company, great people!
Highly recommend.
Another annual boiler service completed, by a first class engineer (Harrison ) , respectful, knowledgeable, clean and tidy as are all Davey & Gilbert staff ,when working on site , Pleased to support local businesses that maintain high standards at all times , thank you Mark and Julian , keep up the good work .
Good guys. Many thanks.
I cannot recommend Davey and Gilbert highly enough. They look after all our plumbing and boiler systems at Chapel House in Penzance, and they have been consistently outstanding. They are always friendly, incredibly quick to respond, and they genuinely stick to their appointments — which is rare and so appreciated. Every member of staff we’ve dealt with from front desk to the workmen has been helpful, knowledgeable, and very pleasant to deal with. But the real testament to their service came on Christmas Day. We had guests staying when a tap suddenly broke, and I had to call their emergency number. It was answered straight away, and within half an hour, Phil arrived — on Christmas Day — having left his family to help us. Phil was an absolute lifesaver. He was calm, polite, professional, and so kind, and he completely saved the situation for us and our guests. We are beyond grateful. Davey and Gilbert are reliable, responsive, and genuinely caring — exactly what you want when something goes wrong. We wouldn’t use anyone else. THANKS D&G !
Great service provided by Davey & Gilbert who attended promptly averting a major crisis. Would happily recommend this company.
Friendly polite young man. Explained what he was doing and was nice and chatty. Replaced taps in kitchen in a good timely manner. Would highly recommend
Brilliant service of boiler and fire and excellent in explaining what he had done and how we would get our certificates too. Definitely recommend
Excellent communication from the start of the project right through to the completion. A professional job and quick to respond on the first contact. to be highly recommended.
Whilst the issue necessitated 2 visits to resolve the problem it was eventually completed and the boiler now works as it should.
Excellent communication from the team at Davey & Gilbert. Engineer was booked in quickly, arrived promptly - job complete & paperwork all sorted within the day. Can't ask for more than that! Will certainly be using again.
I contacted Davey and Gilbert for help with an electrical issue after a neighbours plumbing had leaked into my light fitting. They were very responsive, and organised for an electrician to attend quickly to have a look at the issue. Tom and co were very helpful, and very thorough - just what you want to ensure that the electrics were all safe! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
Thankyou so much
I can highly recommend this great company… they were incredibly fast in replacing my broken boiler and with competitive prices ….. i also need to mention the very efficient staff from the fitters to the office all very friendly & professional…. You definitely wont be disappointed
Very professional and prompt, delivering high-quality labour.
Engineers were polite & the work was completed with no fuss or mess. Thank you.
I phoned Davey and Gilbert approximately 10 o'clock in the morning to say my boiler Refuses to start, can you help? The lady on the end of the phone said we are extremely busy but leave it with me and I'll try and juggle things around, buy 3 PM. That same day, Harrison arrived, very pleasant lad and the boiler is up and running. What more can I say, Well done Davey and Gilbert and thank you.
Again helped me out of a situation and very helpful , not too expensive so highly recommended
I use this firm for both gas and electrical servicing plus occasional new installations. Without exception their service/attention to detail has been very professional, this from start to finish. Put simply, I can rely on thier support.
The 2 lads that came and fitted our external sockets for St Just Christmas Lights were polite and understood the needs of us and the home and business owners. Their work was clean and tidy and all parties were very happy. Thank you for saving us in such a short time scale really appreciate it.
I cannot recommend D & G highly enough. From survey to completion, our boiler & new radiators installation was carried out in a friendly, efficient & professional manner throughout the whole process. Communication was great & all queries raised were answered immediately, & advice supplied throughout, plus the job was completed on time, with impeccable attention to detail from the installation team.
A great experience. Prompt friendly and efficient I would thoroughly recommend
Great oversll service as always and Lee does a great job looking after our heating!
I recently had some pipework installed for a shower. Friendly and efficient service. Many thanks.
The usual excellent annual service was carried out by Lee and Harrison, who also did it last year. They arrived as agreed around 08:00 (otherwise known these days as "the middle of the night" for me as I age gently!).. All done in about 90 minutes. Also, Marco recently changed the PCB in my cooker hood, which now works perfectly. The middle fan speed, which is used most, had failed. Now all speeds work efficiently. Really pleased!! 😄🎃👹
After a bed experience with an electrician a friend suggested Davey & Gilbert. Really wish we had gone to them to start with. Marco turned up on time assessed what needed to be done & got straight to work on what we asked him to prioritise. He explained what needed to be done & why, was friendly, hard working & his work was very neat & tidy. We have a couple more jobs coming up & won’t hesitate to get in touch with Davey & Gilbert. On our experience we would recommend (Marco) Davey & Gilbert. M Moore
trustworthy and reliable engineers and also good on the admin side - invoices and gas safety certificates etc
Excellent. Polite and friendly service.
Excellent service. Harrison was friendly and very efficient.
A leak arose with my plumbing system. Having explained the source of the leak, the company offered to replace the faulty item free of charge. The work was carried out by a member of Davey & Gilbert plumbing team accompanied by an apprentice. I was impressed their work which included checking the remainder of my central heating system Recommended
All good and work completed in a day. Good value with a couple of extra jobs done for free.
Great service provided and managed to get out in super quick time. Was organised remotely for a relative with dementia and engineer was courteous and aware of her condition. Thankyou for a great service and will call again when she forgets to switch the taps off and floods the house
Proper Job Thank you
excellent service throughout
Absolutely superb service as always by quality tradesmen
Excellent and very thorough gas boiler service.
Excellent, prompt service. James arrived on time carried out the work competently and professionally. Great company wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Davy and Gilbert
Fantastic service. Professional, efficient and personable. Would certainly recommend this company and will be using them again should we need to.
Great company to deal with. Engineer replaced propane changeover valve and non-compliant pipework leaving everything neat and tidy - a pleasure to deal with. Subsequent visit to discuss possible heat pump instal very helpful too.
A great company who very quickly came and diagnosed the fault with my grant vortex oil boiler. It had been playing up for a while, but Phil found the problem and replaced a valve and the PCB. Will definitely use again.
The installation of my boiler went faultlessly! The Engineer was first class! His knowledge of his trade was second to none! Arrived on time and worked diligently thorough out the two days he was at my home. I would absolutely guarantee this company to anyone. Not just the new installation but for all the years they serviced my old boiler!
Great service! Davey & Gilbert installed my new boiler quickly and professionally, explained everything clearly, and left the place spotless. Highly recommend!
D&G installed a new boiler & ancillary work for us in Aug 2025 - the whole team were expert, efficient, tidy, and a pleasure to have in our home.
Davey and Gilbert were quick, reliable and a pleasure to have fitting a new boiler. I found them thoroughly professional and friendly too, a combination hard to beat. I would highly recommend them.
A fault with my oil-fired boiler was quickly diagnosed and resolved. The boiler was then given its annual service and safety check by the highly competent engineer. A top job!
Very professional company. Fitter was very knowledgeable and did a fantastic job fitting my new boiler. Would definitely recommend great service from quote to fitting. Thank you
Thank you so much for your excellent work!
Excellent service. Rang with a plumbing problem and the job was completed within a few hours. It is so nice to have a local company who look after us. Thank you for being so efficient.
Highly trained professionals, excellent service.
Dominic Perkins from Davey & Gilbert recently installed a new boiler for me. I am 92 years old and live in a flat which has had very little modernisation since it was built around 60 years ago. As a result, Dominic kept finding all sorts of oddities and complexities that he had to deal with and it ended up taking him 4 days to complete the project. He really was exceptional. Not only was he able to work around all the hurdles that presented themselves, but he was incredibly kind and courteous, very patient when explaining everything to me, very conscious not to disturb other Flat owners and completely diligent in cleaning up after himself. I could not recommend him highly enough.
I had a worrying leak through the living room ceiling from the bathroom. The office managed to arrange someone that day, who was kind and efficient. Thank you.
I am very pleased with the work that Davey & Gilbert carried out for me. It was a logistical nightmare in my mind and I was quite anxious about it all. The men that did my work were very knowledgeable about their craft and I was put completely at ease by them at all times. They explained things to me through the whole process and kept me informed at all times Which didn't need to be very often, they know their stuff and just got on with the job. Their advice was helpful, I think I understand thing a bit more now. Everything progressed smoothly and they left my property very clean and tidy. As I said earlier they were faced with a nighmare, they solved it and I am highly delighted with the outcome. I would certainly recommend their work and would have no qualms about using them again.
Quick, efficient, great service!
So grateful to the wonderful engineer who responded to my weekend call for help to fix a hammer locking sound coming from the pipework. Fixed within 2 hours. Thank you for your prompt and excellent service. Definitely 5 stars.
Great advice and information so we could decide the best way to sort out an overheating water and central heating system. Installation of new parts to the system was smooth and neat, and we are very pleased with how much better the system is now. Thank you. We recommend, and would use their services again.
A superb job completed promptly by very competent, efficient and friendly engineers. All at a very fair price too. Highly recommended!
Excellent installation carried out by professionals who always knew how to fix the problems that arose during the cousre of the work.
We had a visit from Davey and Gilbert to check that our solar panels were still working. This was done for us with no charge. Very helpful and efficient.
Fantastic service, always professional and very helpful and prompt with plumbing and electrical issues at my house. Thank you!
First class service as always from Davey & Gilbert
Great service and good value. Engineer very polite and friendly. Thoroughly recommend
New hot water tank fitted - Team very polite and friendly (thank you Ben and Tilly!). Professional job done at good price. Highly recommended.
We have used D&G for the last three years and they offer a great service. The office are a pleasure to deal with, they will always try to help sort a problem as quickly as possible, and the service lads have all been great.
Brilliant service, came on day one, solved all problems, charming and helpful young man, couldn’t wish for a better service. Thankyou D£G
Have had Davey and Gilbert carrying out electrical work in the past and again more recently, they go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction, would highly recommend this amazing firm.
EXCELLENT SERVICE AGAIN
Thank you for your Prompt service. My liquid gas tank was empty due to a faulty gauge so I had no heating or hot water for three days and my boiler needed an engineer to restart it following a gas delivery. The engineer that normally Deals with my annual maintenance and is always very pleasant and efficient arrived and serviced and re started my heating system.
Amazing service. Jon has completed work for us a few times: helping sort out our commercial dishwasher, and more recently our commercial gas oven extractor and fan. Jon turns up when he says he will, is hard working and completes the work so efficiently. Big thanks to Jon and Ben too for giving up their Sunday to get the work done. We are very grateful and would highly recommend Davey and Gilbert. Lucy and Rob Greenlaw
Great service as always

Brilliant and prompt service from start to finish! Sam, Jon, Lee and the team were fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Davey and Gilbert again and will be sure to recommend them! Many thanks.
Use service from davey and gilbert for long long year, they always did the great job! especially Jon from Gas department, thank you so much 👍👍
Wow what a service from start to finish 100%. From the quote, which was considerably cheaper by a lot to finish. Every single worker from Davey & Gilbert and their sub contractors were superb. They were professional, efficient and amazing. Dom led the team and is a credit to the company.
amazing service. had an electrical circuit fault in my kitchen occur after 10pm on a Thursday evening. emailed D&G who contacted promptly next morning with an electrician visit on the Friday afternoon. the electrician contacted me to say he was on the way. and arrived spot on time. turned into quite an involved job with an apprentice assisting. really interesting to observe the process of tracking down the fault. isolated one socket. full explanation of cause given and work required. very professional service and highly recommend. no doubt will be using D&G for future works. I'm a very happy customer :) thank you.
D&G have looked after and annually serviced our 3 ASHP's since installation in 2020 and have always delivered great service and responded quickly to the one occasion when one failed. And Lee @ D&G always shows patience and willingness to give us a refresher session on how it all works ! Tnx.
Amazing service and delivery, other vendors were unreliable with poor communication. Not these guys, they were prozone, great communication, great diagnostics for a very old heating system. Simply brilliant and thank you very much
We use Davey & Gilbert for our oil boiler service. Their service is just great, from the call to book it, through to the engineer coming, everyone involved is friendly and helpful. We couldnt ask for better service.
Professional work carried out on our PV panels. Turned up as promised, friendly and efficient.Would use again.
I recently needed an emergency call out due to a leak, I contacted Davey & Gilbert and Jon Pickhaver was swift to the rescue. He was extremely proficient and quickly resolved the problem and kept me well informed and provided a job report immediately. I would not hesitate to recommend Davey & Gilbert for any Plumbing & Heating or mechanical works.
As usual a first class service. 10/10
Brilliant job again by Davey and Gilbert. On time, knowledgeable, completed the work in a clean and tidy way.
First rate service. Recommended.
Polite and friendly service from office staff and engineer .
On receiving our emergency call(flood) outside of normal hours the company responded within minutes to make our installation safe.They returned early the following day to install a new boiler,ensuring our heating and hot water was restored as soon as possible. The engineers were excellent and the service flawless.
called in short notice attended solved problem would recommend john doing exeptional work customer service is best i have witness would highly recommend
Our boiler at The Penzance Chiropractic clinic broke and we quickly needed a new one. We got several quotes and Davey and Gilbert were both reasonable, and willing to work on the days best for us. The guys fitting the boiler were very professional and accommodating
Great company, I shall use them again. They were prompt, efficient and stuck to the price they quoted :)
Excellent
New boiler fitted in a professional and timely manner. Excellent service from friendly fitters. Highly recommended.
We were given an amazing service, above and beyond! We can't thank Davey & Gilbert enough.
As ever, friendly professional service. Fault tracing and replacement of lighting issues.
Very pleased with the plumbing work carried out to move a hot water tank from loft to ground floor and install a new boiler. Expert advice was patiently given to plan the project. The team who carried out the work were pleasant, knowledgeable and efficient. Having extensive plumbing work done in your home can be very intrusive but this team made it an almost pleasurable experience!
Great service and reasonable price !
Genuinely excellent all round. Very professional, pleasant to deal with and respectful of your property. Cannot recommend Davey & Gilbert enough.
We've used Davey & Gilbert for routine servicing and emergency call out for our oil-fired boiler for the past few years and found them very responsive and knowledgeable. The most recent piece of work we asked them to do involved running pipework to a new radiator, replacing another radiator and fitting a magnetic filter on the central heating. The fitter who was doing the job took the time to make sure he understood our requirements, explained how he was going about the work and did a very neat, clean and tidy job. All in all we are very happy with the work they've done for us - and they're nice people to deal with too!
Great service, managed to fit us in for an emergency repair to fix leaking pipes, friendly staff. Thank you
So pleased with the work undertaken by Davy & Gilbert to remove our old back boiler & replace with a combi. Very customer focused throughout from quote request to sign off. Many thanks to Sam Strick for his time, organisation & regular contact & the amazing team who attended; Dom, Nick & Scott arrived on time, worked hard & did a fabulous job. A clean & tidy finish, removed all rubbish & protected carpets. I would highly recommend Davy & Gilbert, a professional, local company who clearly take pride in a 'job well done'. Thank you all.
We had a un-vented cylinder installed and the work carried out was exceptional. Everything was neat and tidy and all cleared away each day. The lads were great - very polite and very professional. Arrived on time each day and they also had a sense of humour which is always great when you’re having work done. We are very pleased with Davey & Gilbert and would recommend them without hesitation.
Recently had some work done by Davey and Gilbert. Josh and Nick completed the work to a high standard. They were professional and friendly. They tidied up after work done. Also the customer service when calling or emailing was excellent. The cost of the work done was very reasonable. I highly recommend the company and would not hesitate using them again. Many thanks.
Absolutely stellar service. Rang up for emergency call out. They ran me though some checks over the phone to save on some of the call out charge and tide me over. Then came out first thing the next day. Totally thorough with their checks and tests to find the issue and had it fixed and back up and running in no time. You get what you pay for with these guys and I will be a customer for life thanks to their friendliness, professional attitude and speed of service.
Prompt arrival of engineer, peace of mind for another year, very reasonable price.
Excellent service at a very competitive price - as always - from Davey & Gilbert, our trusted local supplier for most things plumbing, gas and electrical. Our new lights look fabulous, so thank you Sean and everyone at D&G!
I called this company in a bit of an emergency (my hot water would not switch off). They listened to my fault finding and sent me an electrician the next day. He listened to my problem and with some delving found the fault. He was back in a couple of hours with two parts and fitted them. Problem solved. I cannot fault them really brilliant service.
As always excellent service. Cannot fault Davey & Gilbert.
As usual, all work completed satisfactorily.
Had Luke fit our Wiser heating control system. Really professional service and a nice lad. Works well, took the time to help with set up and demonstrating. Would definitely recommend.
A very efficient and professional service. Thank you
My mother had heat pump installed and found the service excellent! They were extremely knowledgeable, professional and very courteous. Will definitely use them again for any future plumbing or electrical work.
Prompt efficient service from start to finish. Many thanks.
After a lot of deliberation, we decided on an air source heat pump for a large 1930's bungalow. The bungalow has always been cold but the heat pump has been a real game-changer, making the space feel cosy. The teams at Davey and Gilbert were excellent and I would recommend them.
Great professional service. Thanks for a quick and easy process. Will be using again in the future.
A couple of months ago, we discovered we had a leaking hot water tank. It was housed in a cramped cupboard with very poor access.We live in an old Cornish cottage and a maze of plumbing that had evolved over decades. Much of the plumbing was behind the tank which had been fitted recently. We contacted Davey and Gilbert and were promptly visited by Sam, who having assessed the situation, suggested two possible options and gave his advice on which he thought was best. We took his advice, and a few days later were given a quotation for the work together with a start and finish date for doing the work. In due course, Ben turned up on the appointed day and 3 days later, on the previously stated end date, the job was done. Everyone we dealt with was polite, courteous and helpful – Ben & co were always friendly and cheerful, despite the lousy weather they were working in quite a lot of the time. There was quite a lot of mess while the work was going on - inevitable due to the nature of the job. But before they left, Ben and co did an amazing job of clearing up and tidying. Everything happened exactly on time as given by Sam when we accepted his quotation. And communication – particularly with Sam – was first class. We always got an aswer to any queries on the same day, or the following morning. We couldn’t have asked for more - highly recommended.
Excellent work The team were efficient professional and the work was extremely neat and tidy throughout They were very polite and friendly while they installed a new heating system Thank you
After living with a dodgy old back boiler for a long time which had a big leak I decided it was time for change. Davey and Gilbert came very quickly to my aid and removed it with minimal mess or fuss, then Sam talked me through my options of a new highly efficient combi boiler. I am so pleased with my new heating system. The work was carried out quickly, respectfully and very efficiently by a lovely engineer who was extremely polite and professional, he ensured I was happy with the work every step of the way and kept me informed on the progress of other professionals involved. One very happy warm customer. Thankyou Davey and Gilbert I will be highly recommending you to any future potential customers. B Gribben
Another job carried out promptly and efficiently . Many thanks . Tony and Jan .
Kevin came out to service our gas boiler. He did a very thorough job and was friendly and professional. I would recommend Davey & Gilbert.
I am always very pleased with the quality of work and level of professionalism from the engineers at Davey & Gilbert. I highly recommend them for boiler servicing.
Great company . Excellent work. Courteous ,considerate helpful workmen. Explained the process of what work was required after investigating problem.Then showed me how to relight the Aga when needed. All pipe work professionally done. Highly recommended.
Getting contractors on Scilly can be challenging – it has been a very easy experience dealing with your company and those doing the work have done a good job. Thank you for being efficient, prompt and understanding of dealing with my elderly Mum. We are pleased not to be worrying about the boiler now.
Supplied and installed a boiler in St Ives.First class service.Installation team were great,couldn’t ask for better.
We have only the highest regard for the Davey and Gilbert team led by Sam, they were not only professional, quick and unbelievably tidy but they were lovely and courteous as well. We never had any concerns or worry even when they were in just about every room at the same time. Regarding snagging, they did everything we asked for, literally the next day. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending them to anyone for their heating and electrical works
Fault with meter for solar panels. Fault diagnosed and part replaced in short order means we're making money again in this lovely weather. Thanks Paul for your excellent service!
Excellent service; highly recommended.
Fast, efficent service with great customer support. Helpful and reliable staff. Would highly recommend.
Davey & Gilbert installed an air source heat pump in my new build property and done a outstanding job! Not only was the installation and design service expertly done they also advised me on the renewal heat incentive scheme and provided me with all the relevant information for the best possible solution at my property. Highly recommended!
Brilliant local company. We recently had an Air Source Heat Pump installed. The whole process was first rate, from the initial consultation to the final commissioning of the system. They arrived when they said they would and completed the job on time. The plumbers and electricians are very professional, consulting us when necessary and keeping us up to speed as the works progressed. This is the third time we have used Davey and Gilbert and on each occasion we have been extremely satisfied with their work. We can highly recommend them.
We can only say positive things for our dealings with Davey & Gilbert. Sam, Kevin & Dom were all so efficient, experienced, skilled, tidy and trustworthy from start to finish. We would not hesitate in recommending them to any of our friends or family.
I’ve used Davey and Gilbert for both installation & maintenance of air source, ground source and electrical works in my home and holiday let. Their service is first class…… reliable, friendly and professional. I highly recommend them.
These guys are on it from the initial survey and pricing to the commissioning. The guys were courteous and friendly and they certainly knew their job. Hoovered up at end of every day and left the place tidy. Totally professional in every respect. I would recommend these guys to anyone.. Thanks
Definitely the best around for speed of service and getting the job done !! Staff very respectful and clean and tidy , top class service !!
My annual gas test on my trailer. Davey & Gilbert was recommended to me as my previous gas tester is no longer doing catering units. Was easy to book a appointment. The laidy on phone was kind and put my worries at ease and swiftly booked a appointment. Absolutely Fantastic service from Jon he was so kind and professional, easy to talk to, straight away I was relaxed. Myself and Husband are currently building new catering unit. Jon was happy to guide us with any questions. Happy to recommend Davey & Gilbert to anyone.
Excellent service from Davey & Gilbert. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Very professional company that I use for annual servicing of our solar thermal installations on 3 x holiday lets in Carbis Bay.
great service - very quick and responsive.
A great local company. From service to call outs to repairs. Always on time and polite.
Awesome service from a top quality firm. Good fast service with top quality workmanship. Could not of asked for a better job. Could not recommend higher enough.
Really very happy with the service we received, the engineer that came out to us was extremely knowledgeable, very personable but also very professional. We were very happy to have been visited as quickly as were. Excellent service all round.
After coming out to quote for a large rewiring job in November, in January I ask if my quote is ready and they tell me they have new projects and don't have time for mine. Waste of my time. I'd advise anyone to find a more reliable company.
Simply brilliant service from the initial call out for a breakdown to our oil boiler to the full survey and discussion regarding our requirements for a new replacement boiler system. Every step of the process was very professional and the staff on site were exceptional, extremely hard working and always reassuring when we asked questions. I would highly recommend Davey and Gilbert to friends and family without hesitation.
From booking the service and dealing with Molly to the operative that came out, this company are incredibly friendly and professional and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!
We were very happy with the electrical work carried out. Very efficient. Thank you
D&G installed oil fired central heating system and a new bathroom in traditional granite cottage. Good communication throughout survey, quotation and the whole job. Tidy work, well finished and a sensible price
Great service, friendly and professional, have used their service many times.
I asked Davey and Gilbert to fit a new heating system including boiler and electrics at my first home. Davey and Gilbert have been professional, fast and easy to deal with throughout the process being a massive help to meet our deadlines for moving into the property. I could not recommend this company enough and would use Davey and Gilbert again for any future projects. Thanks to the team for sorting everything out and being helpful from beginning to end.
We had excellent service from Davey & Gilbert for a full electrical refit as well as replacing all the radiators. The technicians were all very competent and polite - a pleasure to deal with. We found Sam very helpful with advice and always prepared to organise a technician at short notice!
Excellent service by Dave and Gilbert, they arrived on time on the day they’d promised for a large boiler replacement. Lee, the Engineer, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and carried out the work without any inconvenience to us. At the end of the job the site was left clean and tidy and we noticed that they had rectified some of the inherent faults in the system. We would have no hesitation in using the Company again or recommending them to others.
Had our new boiler fitted by Davey and Gilbert when the old one died. We'd previously used them to fit a few new radiators to the existing system and did a great job then, so it seemed right to use them again. The chap came out to quote which came through quickly ( some others don't even bother to quote.) The guys who fitted the boiler were very friendly and professional, fitting the boiler and pipe work to a very high standard. After making sure everything was working as it should, they explained how it all worked. I would highly recommend these guys for a boiler and other plumbing work.
We invited Davey and Gilbert to quote for our replacement boiler because of the exceptional reputation the company has. We were not disappointed and could not have been happier with the service. Sam came out to our house to discuss our requirements and made his recommendation. The quote price was better than we thought it would be and they were able to supply and install within a week of agreeing the quote. Sam managed our expectations very well and explained the process the workmen would undertake, including installing the new flue and making good the old. On the day of install, we left the guys to it, returning a few hours later to find the work done to an exceptional standard, and the old boiler removed. The workmen showed us the controls and made sure we were able to use the new boiler before leaving. The follow up of paperwork and guarantee was swift and the overall process was nothing other than first class. We cannot thank Davey and Gilbert enough and recommend their services to everyone WITHOUT hesitation. Thanks guys...you're the best!
I asked D&G to fix a leaky radiator at our house last week. The micro bore pipe was dripping both valves as the actual radiator had broken off its supporting brackets. Lee arrived and removed the radiator. The replacement radiator was sourced quickly within an hour ( the original brackets were broken/ bodge job) and installed perfectly. He tested the system without needing to drain the system and voila! Perfect job, lovely person and tidied up everything. Couldn’t be happier with this service.
Sean, Electician, is always a pleasure to deal with. Always a “can do” attitude, and “he does” !
Cannot reccomend this company highly enough. I am a building surveyor who owns a private practice and also own a property management company so have many years experience working with trades of all types and companies of all sizes. Davey and Gilbert have just finished installing a solar system on my home. I found the company to be easy to deal with, prompt, knowledgful and reliable. Extremely good value for money. Their quoting was clear, concise and understandable. The workmanship could not be faulted. Everyone was a pleasure to deal with and everything was left immaculate. We are already planning on having them back when it is time to expand the system with a battery store and ev car charging. Thank you Davey & Gilbert
Prompt on-time initial visit by Engineer. Fault diagnosed and spare parts ordered, and the same engineer serviced and replaced the defective parts (2 hours) the following week at the agreed appointment time
Had Davey & Gilbert wire in a bathroom cabinet for us. Customer service was great throughout. The electrician who did the job was friendly and professional. The bill was also very reasonable. I’ll be using them again.
Davey and Gilbert provided their usual highly professional service. Phil and Ben did a really excellent job installing a new bathroom suite, overcoming several problems on the way with real, professional skill. Highly recommended. As always, you get what you pay for!!
Compleat waste of time.. I met Sam on site to discuss the work needed to complete everything, I expressed I needed the work doing promptly.. Which apparently wasn't a problem. I waited over 2 weeks for and made 3 phones. Each time not even having the job reference on the system... didn't receive 1 phone call back! Today I get the most overused excuse going. Covid related issues! And cannot do the work!!! Absolute shambles! Don't waste your time! Avoid!
5 Star Service. Very prompt and polite. Would 100% recommend. Thanks
1 star for driving recklessly along the A30 in your signed silver Van. Heavy rain, fog and fading light and you still felt it was reasonable to get right behind other vehicles in the fast lane travelling already at excess of 70 mph, when they let you through you sped off. Ignoring the road conditions aswell as the 60mph limit for your vehicle on that particular road.
We are a long standing customer of Davey and Gilbert and would highly recommend them for their professionalism and great customer service.
As usual Davey & Gilbert did a great job even though we called them late on a Friday. Prompt, friendly, got the job done. Thanks!
Excellent service. We requested an installation, D&G completed the work a few days later at a reasonable price and as quoted. Can't ask for more.
We are always amazed by the speed and efficiency of this local company. We have used them for many years with constantly great results. There is always someone there at the end of the phone to help with either electrical or plumbing problems and nothing is too much trouble. They are a long established company and I cannot recommend highly enough.They are so up to date with all the latest technology and innovations and will help with any project you have in mind. Many thanks for sorting out our latest crisis. Great team!
I have had various services from Davey and Gilbert over a number of years. The receptionist is always helpful. They are pricey but the men come when arranged. They provide the service and equipment (if needed) as required. They are polite and friendly. When I have had occasions to go to the office to find out about equipment I need one of the partners has discussed the options, and consulted a trade handbook to show me the items. I live in Penzance and the company is a short way out of the town with parking spaces.
Delighted with the workmanship from both the electrician and plumber. Punctual, professional and able to address the issue quickly and resolve the problem in no time at all. Due to my working hours, I was given an appointment which suited me without taking time off work. I would not hesitate to recommend Davey & Gilbert to carry out both electrical and plumbing work in your home. Thank you
Needed new oil boiler, pumps, valves, radiator replacements and all controls. Excellent standard of work done by Phil and colleague. Would recommend 100%.
Needed general electrical work done. Very responsive, and excellent standard of work. Highly recommended !
First class electrician can't thank you enough.
Excellent, and very prompt and efficient, service; a knowledgeable team; and they cleaned up after themselves as well!
Very pleased with the professional service provided, polite friendly and efficient with fair pricing, so I now recommend them and would invite them back if I had any further problems in the house.
Running this area for a cottage letting agency, I have a great number of holiday cottages, any problems with electrics of plumbing I can rely on D & G even at weekends. Great service with really helpful staff
Very professional competitive quote
I had an electric socket that needed replacing in my Costcutter Store and was advised an approximate price for this beforehand. They understood this was an urgent call out and came within a day, did the replacement and charged a fair price for an hours work plus parts. I could clearly see what I was paying for and would not hesitate to recommend this company.
