Highly recommended! Gavin recently came round to replace a couple of radiators for us, and the entire experience was flawless. He is incredibly clean and tidy, leaving the workspace spotless when finished. What we appreciated most was his excellent advice, helping us make the right decisions for both our immediate needs and future heating plans. His workmanship is absolutely spot on—we have never had a single issue with any of his work. A truly reliable professional!
I recently had some work done by Gavin and I couldn’t be happier with the service. He was professional, reliable, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He arrived on time, explained the issue in a way that was easy to understand, and got everything sorted quickly and to a really high standard. What I appreciated most was how honest and upfront he was about pricing—no surprises, just fair and reasonable. He also made sure everything was left clean and tidy before he left, which made a big difference. It’s not always easy to find someone you can trust, but he made the whole experience completely stress-free. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone needing plumbing work and will be using him again in the future.
Great service and communication. Listened to what I needed, researched possible solutions for whole house water softener, and fitted swiftly. Would definitely recommend
Some eight years ago, our old boiler needed replacing and, at the same time, relocating completely from the loft to the utility room on the ground floor. Gavin did an excellent job. He talked us through which boiler would be most appropriate, explained how the pipework could be routed, and completed the whole move seamlessly. The boiler he recommended still looks great and works extremely well. Gavin services it, along with our central heating system, every year. On the very rare occasions when we have had a problem — for example, a radiator refusing to work or, my personal favourite, the nipple on the gas service pipe to the house deciding to spring a leak — Gavin has always responded quickly and resolved the issue efficiently. His charges, including for emergency call-outs, are very reasonable. We have always found Gavin to be knowledgeable, reliable and professional, and we would have no hesitation in recommending him. Five stars, thoroughly deserved.
Ive been having an issue with my boiler i rung a number of plumbing companies who all had a diabolical call out fee... stumbled across gps who was very helpful on the phone came out on time solved the problem within minutes no need for any parts.. and he also didnt charge me as it was only a minor issue which Im very thankful for. My boiler also needs servicing so I will defo call gps and pay the full amount.. thank you for once again.. top guy..
I was very impressed with the clear communication from GPS.Work was carried out within a week of my initial contact . Will definitely use again
I'm sure he's a good plumber by the reviews. But after confirming he'd come to do a boiler service a while back, just never showed up and didn't hear from him again. Perhaps I just slipped through the gaps somehow but due to this, wouldn't recommend.
Excellent service from Gavin at GPS. He came out to Wixams quickly and repaired our heating with no hassle at all. Friendly, professional and clearly knows his stuff. Really appreciated the quick response and would highly recommend.
Gavin was extremely responsive with an urgent request to do a safety check on my boiler. I’d definitely recommend.
Last week, we had our ageing system boiler replaced by Gavin at GPS Plumbing and couldn't be happier with the result. Our old boiler was over 20 years old and had become increasingly unreliable, needing a manual restart almost every morning. Gavin assessed the situation thoroughly and recommended a 36kW high-efficiency combi boiler - a much more compact and efficient solution that's more than capable of heating our large 1901-built home. The job wasn't straightforward. The distance from our gas meter to the boiler meant a new, wider gas pipe needed to be laid — a task Gavin handled without fuss, despite complicated routing being needed through our loft. He also managed to recommission our existing Hive thermostat system with the new boiler, saving us unnecessary extra cost. Throughout the job Gavin was friendly, professional, and kept our home clean and tidy at every stage. The work was completed on time and exactly as discussed. We'd recommend Gavin/GPS plumbing without hesitation.
Top plumber
GPS Plumbing are a great comapny - they were able to help me over the phone to ressolve a thermostat issue - will defo be using them again going forward
When my home boiler was condemned by a heating engineer, I phoned around some company’s to get quotes to replace it. Most were happy to come out and provide a quotation, for a job costing thousands of pounds. Gavin was different. He asked why the boiler had been condemned and when I told him he said he would look into it. Later that day, he called me back saying he had been in contact with Worcester Bosch who thought they could repair said boiler with their ‘Out of Warranty Repair’ service. I called Worcester Bosch and arranged for one of their engineers to come out. He did and he managed to fix my boiler, the cost being in the hundreds not thousands! So, Gavin had gone above and beyond what was expected of him, choosing to offer me a cheaper solution rather than the easy money of quoting for a new boiler for lots of money. If you are looking for a genuine, honest person not looking to rip you off for a quick buck, then Gavin is your man. Not many folk left like him about and I owe him a drink, which I will give him another day. Cheers Gavin !
Gavin has been my plumber/heating engineer for over 9 years since he fitted my Worcester boiler . He is always efficient & tidy. I would happily recommend him .
Having used GPS Plumbing and Heating for many years, I have always found Gavin polite, friendly, knowledgeable and hard working. A true proffesional in his trade.
Gavin was brilliant. Highly recommend. Efficient, skilled and flexible with times. He fitted a new electric shower for us at short notice. Thank you!
Gavin has been great. First engineer I called for a gas leak quoted me £50 to attend and check for a leak and that would be the next day. Gavin provided me a free phone number to have my leak checked and gas disconnected and then attended first thing the next day. Was very helpful, facetimed me to access the appliances prior to attendance. This was late Friday evening and came Saturday. Very informative, fixed my leak and ensured my home was safe. Greatly recommended. Good price too!!
Gavin fitted a new gas boiler for us. He fully explained our options and provided a detailed and competitive quote. The work was performed to a high standard and the boiler is working brilliantly. He even called a couple of days after the work was completed to check whether everything was working as hoped. We have previously used Gavin for a full bathroom refit which was completed to a similar high standard. I would highly recommend Gavin for any plumbing or heating work needed.
Efficient service of gas fire, on time and reasonable price. Also gave good advice on location where I should fit my Carbon Monoxide alarm.
Gavin did a good job. Did it fast and the price was reasonable.
Gavin always does a great job. He's prompt, polite and knows his stuff. Wouldn't think of using another plumber. Highly recommended.
I had a problem with shower rang Gavin and he came round with in the hour Found out what problem was and recommend course of action and gave me a very reasonable price Came back next day and fixed it Thanks Gavin highly recommend Bern
Had Gavin round to fit 4 new radiators. Extremely pleased with the work that was carried out. Gavin kept me informed throughout of the work he was carrying out. Would highly recommend GPS Plumbing and Heating…Excellent !!
I’m fully satisfied with Gavin’s water softener installation from start to finish. Before beginning the installation, he thoroughly explained what he was going to do and selected the shortest piping route to maximize storage space under the sink. Despite the limited space, he completed the work neatly. After finishing, he tidied up and cleaned everything. Thank you, Gavin!
We called Gavin after a few bedford heating engineers had been out to us and not managed to fix the issue. Gavin was extremely knowledgeable and professional and had our hearing back up and running in no time. I would certainly recommend him for all plumbing and heating jobs
I had GPS Plumbing to service my boiler and sort out a leak in my garage. All the work was done cleanly and efficiently and very reasonably priced.
Highly recommended using Gavin. Very knowledgeable on how to get the best quality water running through your house. I got two filters in the end, one for drinking water and one to reduce scale on the normal taps. Was very pleased with the quality of the work and how tidy he left the place after he finished.
Great service. Friendly and knowledgeable during call out to repair boiler. Highly recommend.
Fantastic service, extremely helpful and very professional. Would highly recommend GPS Plumbing and Heating.
We have used Gavin for a number of years and he is always reliable, helpful and quick to respond.
Gavin came out and fixed my boiler after a breakdown. Would have been lost without him, nice bloke and reasonably priced too
Gavin installed my central heating and reliably does annual service for me. A quality plumber
Since we moved here 6 years ago GPS Plumbing has done all our plumbing requirements - new boiler, radiators, gas fire installed, gas cooker installed, two bathrooms refitted, outside water tap annual servicing - you name it Gavin can do it. Nothing is too much trouble and he explains everything he does. Great to have a plumber you trust completely! Can thoroughly recommend.
GPS plumbing are ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️ unlike the 14 other firms I’d called before (using Gas Safe website) Gavin didn’t say “no we don’t do that” he listened and gave me practical advice to unpick and solve how we could connect up gas services in our temporary static caravan. He couldn’t have been more helpful. Thank you
Gavin at GPS plumbing has been fantastic for me and my family. The boiler of the house we moved into recently needed to be replaced. Gavin came out to our house very quickly when he said he would (within two hours) and he identified the issues very quickly. He very thoroughly and clearly talked me through the problems what needed replacing and fixing, and why. He clearly considered the heating system as a whole, and interaction between the different components, not just the immediate problem. His prices were just lower than the average of quotes we got from different plumbers. He also rearranged his schedule to prioritise ensuring we could get heating in our house in place as soon as possible, a particular concern as I have young kids. Gavin worked hard and quickly, and his work is very neat and tidy. He also gave me lots of tips and advice on a broad range of things around the house, which went well beyond the job I was paying him for. I will use him for all my future plumbing and heating needs and I wholeheartedly recommend him.
Thank you GPS for amazing walking shower room and luxury bathroom! Excellent job! 👌🏻
5 * advice, service and knowledge. Not only did we resolve the problem but we saved money!! Will be using GPS for all our domestic plumbing. Thanks
Our boiler broke last year not long before Christmas and I googled a plumber and found GPS. All I can say is thank goodness I did! Gavin squeezed us in at short notice and came out the same day to offer a free quote. He was really genuine and didn't try and push expensive boiler options on us. We went for a Worcester-Bosch and once our payment had cleared, he ordered the parts and started the work within a couple of days. He worked very hard to get it finished for us in a day, he also installed a radiator in our hallway for free (as he noticed it was rusty and leaking) he was professional, friendly and very trustworthy and I have since recommended him to all my friends and family. So rare to find such a nice genuine person in a trade like this! Gavin, we will see you later on in the year for the annual inspection. Many Thanks, Laura and John Brennan
Amazingly quick and efficient. Great price, friendly and new boiler fitted and working in less then a week from first call out.
