Ricky is the man for all of your plumbing and heating needs - he has great knowledge of many systems and is able to help in a wide variety of ways. He is also great at communication and carries out his work with integrity and care for his customers. He installed a Vaillant heat pump system in for us and the install was very tidy and there was very little disruption in the house. We are very glad a local friend told us about Heatworks.
Ricky installed our new boiler. He provided a friendly, fast and efficient service. Thanks Ricky your knowledge and expertise was truly appreciated.
We recently had a full gas installation with a new boiler and radiators fitted by Ricky and his team and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the service from start to finish. The quote was very fair and reasonable, everything was explained clearly, and we were told exactly when the work would be carried out and how long it would take. They turned up when they said they would every day, worked hard, and left everything clean and tidy afterwards. Nothing was too much trouble, and Ricky has even come back afterwards to sort a couple of little things without any issues at all. It’s rare these days to find people so reliable, professional, and easy to deal with. We would highly recommend Ricky and his team to anyone looking for plumbing, heating, boiler or gas work. Excellent service all round. :::
Super satisfied. Ricky responds promptly to any questions and installed Boiler when agreed, no fuss and no mess. Highly recommended
I was referred to Heatworks by another satisfied customer. Ricky proved to be every bit as good as we hoped for. His communication, advice, quotation and subsequent boiler fitting were all first class. He and Elliott were very motivated, reliable and highly professional throughout the process. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Heatworks.
Absolute professionalism from start to finish. Prompt response to our enquiry and a quick appointment to assess and carry out the work. Explained the problem and the repairs required. Could not fault their work.
We have used Ricky @ 'Heatworks' several times (replace boiler, fix shower etc) and each time he is prompt, reliable, fairly priced & friendly and comes highly recommended.
Ricky and the team sorted my very unwell underfloor heating and hot water system. Now we have a lovely warm house and hot water when we need it that links in with the solar PV’s. I would recommend him for any heating related issues/upgrades.
Can’t fault Ricky at Heatworks. Finish to a high quality, reliable and friendly. Helped work round our budget as much as possible with different suggestions. Highly recommend.
Very quick to come out and fix the issue, great communication, thank you!
Very professional and a good job
A huge thank you to Ricky for his amazing hard work completely refurbishing our bathroom , it looks amazing, we are over the moon with it . Can’t wait to get the other bathroom done now
We have had great service. Glad to have found Heatworks as now we have a reliable and trustworthy service for our heating and plumbing!
Ricky has always been incredibly professional, efficient and trustworthy on any work we have given him. He is always super tidy and I have had other tradesmen comment on how impressive his work his. I cannot recommend him highly enough!
Ricky was quick to work out the problem and stayed to fix it. Highly recommend to anyone needing a plumber locally, filled me with confidence.
Brilliant service. Work carried out quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend and will be using again.
Lovely, friendly, professional & thoughtful lad will definitely use Ricky every year for maintenance & service to boiler
Ricky installed a completely new heating system for us - Ricky was excellent from the start an extremely amenable person, great communication, a full schedule of work given to us at a very competitive price, i would not hesitate to recommend Ricky in fact I already have.
We had our system flushed by Ricky yesterday. He arrived on time and was very thorough and tidy and any questions I had was very happy to answer. He explained the findings of the flush, which I found very useful. Both he and his colleague Lisa were friendly, very efficient and polite. I would definitely recommend Ricky and will be using him again for any further problems etc we may have.
Ricky is amazing, he fixed our complicated underfloor heating system and I couldnt be more delighted. He worked in a tidy and clean manner so there was no extra work for me. Lisa who assisted him was also really thorough and lovely. He is my go to heating engineer for life lol Thank you Ricky for a fabulous job which was excellently carried out.
If I could give 10 stars I would. Ricky was absolutely amazing, he first came out to service our boiler a few months ago and was quick, efficient and reasonably priced. I recently called him for an emergency as our immersion heater had started leaking, Ricky called me back out of hours and told me he would be there first thing (despite the fact he was fully booked) and has fixed my immersion heater with no problem. Ricky is always friendly and helpful and I couldn't recommend him enough!
Ricky and Lisa were with me for four days removing and re-plumbing my old oil heating system and replacing it with a new Gas boiler. It is good to know that Ricky is very highly qualified, more than most I found when looking for someone to take on this job. . Due to the age of my house (approx.480 years) It was a difficult and tough job, with several significant challenges that didn't appear to phase Ricky at all. He took everything in his stride with a calm and positive attitude, and got the job done extremely efficiently; i was only without hot water and heating for a few hours on one day. They were both so friendly and nice to have around, they made me feel very comfortable having them in the house. They did excellent work and cleaned up completely. As such i recommend Ricky, Lisa and Heatworks wholeheartedly and I will certainly be using their services in the future. Out of all the numbers I called for quotes, i am SO pleased I called them! An absolutely brilliant and top class service.
Great service, prompt, clean and tidy. Sorted my underfloor heating system and completed a service on my boiler.
What a lovely experience with ricky from 1st visit lots of advice & ideas for us. We had a complete new heating system update. He did the work quick was always clean & tidy. Throughly recommend heatworks
Ricky (and Chris) managed to squeeze us in at the last minute which really got us out of a jam. Very professional, easy to deal with and very reasonably priced.
1st class team and work from coming to quote for the job to completion 😁 Ricky is so passionate and professional while going through our heating needs. When Ricky and his team finished for the day they left are house clean and tidy. Thanks for a great job, I would highly recommend heatworks for all your plumbing needs. 5 stars are not enough
Ricky did an incredible job in our bathroom, including fitting a new shower. His knowledge is incredible and I felt very reassured in his expertise. He was friendly and very professional and left my home very tidy after his work. He was able to fit us in quickly as an urgent job and very responsive to messages. Cannot recommend him highly enough! Thank you!
Exceptional. I messaged Ricky on a bank holiday as my CO alarm had gone off; he replied within minutes and came out with Chris first thing next morning. Reassuring, friendly and efficient and they sorted the issue thoroughly and explained clearly what had happened. Excellent aftercare too. I can’t recommend Heatworks highly enough and will use them again. Thank you from a happy customer.
Had a combi boiler installed by Ricky and Chris. They did a fantastic job . All the pipework had to be replaced as the new boiler had to be in a different place than the old one . Very tidy job at a fair price . Would highly recommend .
Ricky and colleagues at Heatworks sorted a number of long running problems we had experienced with our heating. Each issue was dealt with methodically, and Ricky ensured he followed up with phone calls to monitor the situation. This approach meant issues others did not take the time to fully investigate were finally solved. Much appreciated and recommended for anyone who is after skilled and conscientious heating engineers. Thanks guys!
Ricky is meticulous in what he does, he doesn't cut corners when it comes to safety. Keeps you informed of his estimated arrival time. He has installed a new combi boiler in a new extension, including a couple of radiators and replacing all the very old existing pipework. It all came through the recent cold spell, with no problems what so ever. I can highly recommend Heatworks North Devon.
Got a boiler service. Excellent. Efficient. Well mannered. Great value for money. Did exactly what they said on time. Would recommend and will use again.
Very impressed with Ricky and Christopher, their customer service was spot on. They were professional, reliable, efficient and polite. Definitely recommend 👍
We found Heatworks on Grants website and have found Ricky to be reliable who goes the extra mile to provide a professional and efficient service. We would certainly recommend him and his team for boiler and plumbing services/repairs.
A big thank you to Ricky and team for the hard work carried out at my property. Very pleased with the quality and service provided. Even going the extra mile to get the job done. A good reliable company that is well recommended.
Ricky @Heatworks was so easy to do business with. Answered on my first call, brilliant comms and updates. When he arrived to complete the work he was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. I would have no hesitation recommending him and will certainly be my first point of call for future works.
Reliable, helpful, knowledgeable and great quality workmanship. Very thorough. Would not hesitate to recommend. Absolutely brilliant.
Thank you Heatworks North Devon Ltd. We honestly couldn’t have been more impressed with the standard of service that we have received from you; right from the point of enquiry through to quotation and then appointment. Your engineer Ricky was not only prompt and very polite, but also provided us with sound professional advice and did an excellent job on our very problematic old boiler, making absolutely no mess whatsoever. We would not hesitate to recommend you and will most definitely be calling on your services again when we come to upgrade our boiler system. Thank you again. Mr and Mrs Ward, Bideford.
We were very impressed at how quick Ricky responded to a request for a boiler service. He was friendly, honest and thorough.
Ricky was really helpful, hardworking and arrived early! Highly recommended. Thanks
Ricky helped me out with the last jobs that needed finishing on a renovation. Tidy worker and a tidy finish. He has an eye for little details to keep everything looking smart. I look forward to using him again!
Very professional and reliable
First rate service. Ricky is reliable, highly-skilled and hard-working. He completed the installation of a new boiler well within his given time frame and to a very high standard. I would recommend him unequivocally.
Fantastic service again by Ricky. Very professional, neat, tidy and punctual.
Very friendly chap, knows his stuff, would definitely recommend
No hesitation in recommending. Work was done to a very high standard exactly when arranged and at a good price for a top notch service.
Following Storm Eunice, we reached out to Ricky in desperation to help get our heating working again. Sadly it turned out the boiler was beyond repair… after a quick and easy discussion about our options he was able to source and install a replacement boiler super quick. Excellent communications throughout - neat and tidy work… no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking for a quality job and responsive service.
Ricky Weller is professional, courteous and reliable. He fitted a new oil boiler and pressurised hot water system on time and on budget The system has been working perfectly throughout the winter Robert Newey
Ricky responded very quickly. He arrived when he said he would and went the extra mile to sort out our problem. He is courteous and his prices are very reasonable. We will be using Ricky again and based on this experience, we could definitely recommend him.
I would very stongly recommend this company.They provided excellent service and ensured that we knew exactly what was required before starting work. Work carried out was very well done and tidy. All areas left clean and tidy throughout.
Ricky made an appointment to do a couple of hours plumbing (water and gas) for us. He turned up when he said would, did exactly what was required following all required procedures, cleared up and only charged us what he’d said it would cost. All in all, top notch work and service, delightful and courteous, and a pleasure to have met. Highly recommended!
Ricky has worked for us on many plumbing jobs, including installing two different types of boiler, an unvented water cylinder and a new radiator system in an outbuilding. And that's not to mention the countless other smaller jobs including some detective work on a one in a million fault, which he solved. Nothing was ever too much. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
Ricky is one of those rare people that you can actually depend on. He’s always happy to help and has helped us and my mother out so many times I’ve lost count. No job is too small and no issue too silly, just a shame he’s moved down to Devon!
Would recommend Heatworks, very prompt response to my enquiry , and friendly and professional service .
This company has carried out many domestic central heating and allied building projects at my cottage to a high standard of competence I have undertaken a few of my own, having had a practical upbringing of my own and having a Chartered Building Surveying Practice for 40 years but only to a DIY level. This company, however, were very professional, responsive, talented and highly qualified and I would have no hesitation in recommending their engagement for most practical building and heating engineering tasks.

Ricky is great plumber.Have been using his services for over 2 years.Very reliable.would highly recommend him.
We cannot speak more highly of Ricky Weller or his company. This young mans knowledge and work ethic not to mention meticulous eye for detail are simply outstanding having done 3 bathrooms and a kitchen for us, being nee to the area we felt daunted by the work needed doing but my god Ricky took all the strain and worry out of our hands from day 1. He absolutely ensures the site is cleared of any debris and left in a orderly manner at the end of each working day, his time keeping is on point, sources good tradesmen outside of his expertise(plastering, electrics etc), right through from bare walls to the end result in the given time is nothing short of outstanding workmanship. 101% trustworthy on every level. Ricky goes above and beyond to make sure clients are pleased and happy (will also guide you if he feels it’s required making a good idea come to life and be beautiful) and is so personable he was smashing guy to have around each day. Anyone seeking a true tradesman we can put our hands on our hearts and say you won’t go wrong with this young man. I would be more than happy for anyone contact me should they need to.
We have used Heartworks on many our projects Quick service , great aftercare. High recommendation.
We have use Ricki since he qualified and has always been reliable and trustworthy and with first class workmanship.
Have been using Ricky for many years for all of my plumbing needs, from managing a full bathroom refurbishment, carrying out boiler services to a simple gas disconnect. Great work carried out in a friendly professional manner!.
Ricky has done several plumbing jobs in my house including fitting new column radiators, installing a Google Nest thermostat, boiler service and several smaller jobs too. The work is always done to the highest standard and nothing is too much trouble. I have been very pleased with all the work Ricky has carried out and I highly recommend his services.
Great service and I wouldn't hesitate to use again. Ricky said he was fairly new to the Bideford/North Devon area and I'd definitely recommend to others. He was quick to respond, helpful, knowledgeable and professional.
Ricky is reliable professional with wide knowledge and building skills. Ricky has worked on our bathroom and kitchen as well as general regular house maintenence. Nothing was ever problem for him, he always finished his job on time and even came to see us on Christmas Eve to fix our gas boiler. I have full confidence in recommending Ricky to you and wishing him best of luck!
For a friendly, dedicated, knowledgeable, tidy plumbing and heating business choose Heatworks for reliability, realistic pricing and capability.
The work that was needed on my house was quite substantial and difficult - and I was delighted with the craftsmanship and the tidy way the site was left everyday. Couldn’t have been happier! Ricky is always a delight to have around as well!
Ricky has done a few jobs for us over the years and has always been so reliable. His work is immaculate - always tidy and works fast. Ricky clearly has an in-depth knowledge and passion for what he does and it shines through. He's so friendly and helpful and he's a pleasure to deal with. We can't praise Ricky enough for his work and recommend him to everyone.
Ricky replumbed our entire house 3 years ago , including fitting 3 bathrooms and a completely new heating system which was a mixture of underfloor and radiators. He planned everything out carefully and made a really lovely job of it. His attention to detail was much appreciated and his responsiveness to our input/questions made him a joy to deal with. Since finishing the installation Ricky has continued to service our boiler each year. I have no hesitation in recommending Ricky as an excellent quality, trustworthy and reliable plumber.
I've had Ricky maintain and fix problems with our heating system for a number of years. He is a tidy worker, reliable and has responded quickly to unexpected faults which is what you want with escaping water! Highly recommend him.
Ricky carried out the works in a professional, friendly manner, everything was finished to the highest possible standard. I would definitely recommend
I had a leak from the bath which lead to finding issues with the water pipes coming from the boiler to the bathroom. It was stressful and worrying. The team came quickly to assess and were able to book me in and fix it ALL within a few days. They were professional, tidy and always kept me updated on what they were doing.
Ricky did a fabulous job redoing our bathroom. He did it very quickly, to a high standard and finished perfectly. I would highly recommend using him.
Ricky has worked on many of my construction projects over the years and always completes everything to top standards. He always strives to get the best results when installing new systems and is very knowledgeable about renewable heating options available too
Great service. Very knowledgeable and gave good advice. Used the company numerous times over the years. I’d not hesitate to recommend to a friend or family. I actually have done and they have also been more than satisfied
Have used Ricky and his team at heatworks for all of our projects! They are highly professional and reliable!
Ricky fitted a new boiler for my Mother. He put himself out to squeeze it into his busy schedule and always goes above and beyond. When I threw away the thermostat a year later (🙄) he popped round the next day and fitted another one as the new owners had just moved in. Top plumber!
We found Ricky very easy to deal with from booking a boiler service, to completion of the job. Ricky was very efficient and informative, Taking time to answer any questions and tidying up before he left. Would highly recommend.
I run a carpentry and renovation company which requires other trades for most projects we do. We hired Ricky (Heatworks) as our plumber after hearing great things about his work and he definitely did not disappoint. He has performed nearly every plumbing task there is to do for us on our jobs. He is very reliable, his attention to detail is great and his work is incredibly neat. Also he is very friendly and easy to work with, I would 100% recommend.
I have been using Ricky for my plumbing for a few years now and I always find him to be very helpful, always on time and professional. I would highly recommend.
