Satisfactory response time from initial contact to completion of work. Satisfactory repair to my toilet.
We were installing a radiator ourselves and made a mistake somewhere along the way and had a slight drip we couldn't correct. Weren't sure what the cause was and was starting to panic as we didn't know what to do and if we could even get help. Called up and luckily you were close by and nearly finished at another job. Came round and fixed our mistake for us. Quick, efficient, polite, well priced and I learnt some lessons too! Radiator is on the wall, working and no leaks!!! Thank you so much! Not sure what we would have done without you. Would absolutely recommend
I needed a plumber quickly as had a very leaky tap. Was going away so wasn’t something to be put off. I put a message on local village facebook page. Jessica Grimm SCS plumbing and heating got in touch first. So I called and she was brilliant . I sent photos and info on what was wrong. She sorted out replacement parts and got Tyler round a few hours later. He was a lovely lad, didn’t make a mess, and completed to job and was off. No stress . I highly recommend SCS
Simon came to do our quote and was really lovely and explained our options the quote came through really quickly with any additional extras we may want Jess is also amazing really clear communication when any questions being asked. Luke/Tyler very clean, I found Tyler more open to questions and explanations Only thing we struggle with was the times of arrival/leaving being consistent Simon came for a sign off and we noted a few issues and given options to resolve Overall very pleased with the service
We cannot fault the work completed by SCS Plumbing and Heating Ltd. As a charity they gave us a fantastic price and we are very grateful. The work was done to a high standard. Would definitely recommend.
I contacted SCS Plumbing and Heating for an annual boiler service. From my initial contact with the team through to completion I received excellent attention. The engineer was extremely thorough and competent. The operation and control of the thermostat and radiators was explained to me which was very helpful. I am very happy to recommend this local company which provides such a valuable and professional service.
An amazing company. Nothing was too much trouble. Simon is very conscientious and listened well. The team behind him all worked hard and all were polite and happy in their work. The work was first class as expected. Will be using them again in the future
SCS Serviced my boiler and provided a gas safety certificate. An excellent and friendly service that I would recommend
Thorough service of Vaillant Gas boiler and system. Tyler the Engineer was on time, friendly, efficient and had great customer service skills. Booking service was easy and was kept up to date with email confirmation. Great all round company with friendly and efficient staff. Can highly recommend!
The only reason I am giving this review is because of Ricardo... a few engineers (4 to be exact) came and couldn't have cared less about the fact that we hadn't had hot water for 2 months... they fixed it and nothing.. changed parts... nothing. Ricardo came, didn't change any parts and got our boiler working in 15 minutes. He is literally the best at what he does.
Really really happy with my new bathroom which Simon and Tyler fitted for me. Gorgeous tiling job and only a few snagging issues which were sorted out promptly. Very polite and cleaned up every day before leaving. I had specific items I wanted and was able to customise everything.
Cannot recommend SCS highly enough. We were in a very difficult situation with our bathroom and Simon completed a very thorough inspection. He was able to provide us with a clear, detailed plan and took our concerns into account. Luke was fantastic, worked very hard and kept us up to date with everything. All of the guys from SCS who helped were very friendly and professional. Big thank you to Jess as well for all her help.
Dan from SCS came to sort a leak under our sink. He was friendly and easy to talk to, and managed to sort it without any bother. Would use SCS again.
We have used SCS Plumbing & Heating twice now. We find them to be very helpful, professional and reasonably priced. They always turn up when they say they will and answer the phone/emails very quickly. Would recommend.
Super service, engineer was brilliant, explained everything he was doing and why he was doing it. Highly recommended. Thank you.
Fabulous service from first phone call, till the time the plumber left. Efficient, professional and a true quality service , thanks so much.
Arrived promptly, diagnosed the issue very quickly and was resolved perfectly. The engineer was also very polite and talked me through everything, would definitely recommend! X
Luke and Tyler were both polite and very competent. Luke identified that my water leak was inside the house in an underground pipe, and I was advised to get in specialist leak detection to identify precise location. Tyler then returned to fix the leak. When I returned from work, it was all fixed, and immaculately clean. Great communication from Tyler during the day. Only downside was the guys are obviously so competent & therefore busy, I had to wait for their services...but worth it.
Although not a job with much WOW factor, the replacement of an external cast iron soil pipe with a modern plastic one went very smoothly from first consultation to successful completion. When working indoors shoes were covered with protection so as to not to bring dirt in on to carpeting. Thank you SCS Plumbing & Heating!
I had great service and Luke was super helpful. My first boiler service with SCS and will be seeing them again next year too.
It comes to my flat this morning. They were perfect. 20 minutes done. Absolutely, fantastic job, very knowledgeable, very good customer service. Excellent service
At last aGasafe heating company that does what you ask them. I called on Simon to do a bailer service on my Vaillant boiler. Another Simon came to do the actual work. He was friendly efficient and knowledgeable. I can say this with insider knowledge, I was a Mechanical Services Manager at a London Uni. My boiler was stripped cleaned and rebuilt and runs now as it should be. I was so impressed that I got "The Simons" to do a full boiler service, replace a radiator and valves,a full Adey powerflush an complete the job with a Landlords certicate for my rental aprtment in Ipswich. The job was completed quickly, efficiently, and at a very agreeable cost Please don't hesitate to call this excellent company to do any "gaswork" you need you will be impressed, as I was
SCS plumbing and heating fitted my new boiler. They did not charge a fee to come to my home and give me a quote. Price wise they were very reasonable. All the workmen were very friendly, polite and did a great job and tidied up after themselves. I would highly recommend this family run company. Thank you so much for delivering such a high quality service.
Luke arrived at 8.30am after ringing to say he was on his way. When he arrived he briefly explained about the MagnaCleanse flush he was going to carry out. During the day he kept me updated with the progress and when he finished he left the house clean and tidy. I couldn't fault his standard of work and would 100% recommend Luke and SCS.
Prompt response to my enquiry and follow up with good advice offered. Excellent installation of power shower by very polite plumber at the agreed time and cost.
A truly professional Company. They responded quickly to my call for help and I am very happy with the result. Thank you Simon and Luke.
SCS great job again at short notice. Simon came out to do thorough gas safety check..thanks again for fitting me in at short notice 👍👍
I needed my boiler serviced, the Engineer turned up on time, was polite and knowledgeable and left everything neat and tidy. Thank you.
Our first experience of SCS and a very positive one. Their communication style is very welcome as they kept us up to date with a materials delay. The works were carried out without fuss or mess and left everything spotless on completion.
Contacted them and explained that I needed my shower to be fixed within the next week or 2. They booked me an appointment for 2 days time. Turned up to look at the issue, went to get the parts, came back within the hour and I had a working shower that day. Great service!
Turned up on time. Full boiler service done quickly and professionally. Will be booking them for the next service. Recommended.
SCS have recently completed our en suite , very pleased from start to finish, the whole effect was as we wanted. The work was completed on time, no mess between days , polite, helpful and courteous as they were when they did the family bathroom, last year. We would certainly recommend them, and good value for a job well done
I have had great service from these guys. Excellent communication and response times. Luke did our boiler service and when our boiler randomly cut out a month later he remembered our pergola sail was near the exhaust pipe and thus I was able to check and resolve the issue quickly (it had covered the exhaust 🤦♀️). Lovely local business, highly recommend!
Contacting the company was easy. The pricing structure was explained and due to a cancellation they were able to come and remove a radiator within 2 days. Luke turned up on time and started the job. No problems at all. Removed the radiator and cleaned up afterwards. A good experience. Heartily recommend SCS Plumbing.
Prompt and efficient service. Very friendly and didn't mind the dog! I would be happy to use them again.
SCS plumbing installed my new boiler and have been responsible for the annual service ever since. I have been completely satisfied with every aspect of the professional and efficient service I have received and cannot recommend them highly enough
Luke was very polite helpful and informative. Did a very good job moving a radiator and installing another in a different room. He cleaned up afterwards leaving everywhere clean and tidy. I would recommend him to anyone.
This company is very professional, prompt, always approachable and genuinely supportive. I would recommend SCS to anybody who requires the above qualities (and more) from a local plumber. Thank you very much....Jacqui and I appreciate your support. Poobie
Having been let down by a previous local plumber, we decided to try SCS, we were not disappointed. Simon was extremely polite and helpful with our requisites, and the job was done promptly and on budget. We will certainly use them again for plumbing.
Great service, quick to arrange a boiler service, arrived on time and were friendly. Will be using again and would recommend to anyone.
I was really impressed with SCS Plumbing. They were super helpful and really went out of their way to problem solve with my Electric Boiler issues. They came the next day and my heating was working again that day. After calling many plumbers I found so many wouldn’t work with Electric boilers, although this was new to them they really went out of their way to learn the system, fault find and really think on their feet. They saved me a fortune in parts I didn’t even need! I would definitely recommend their service and would absolutely use them again.
SCS answered my call promptly and politely. They arranged a call-out appointment within days. Luke quickly assessed the problem and replaced both the outside tap and the stop valve (indoors) that controls it. Job done quickly and effectively in under the hour. Very good service from SCS!
This company could not have been more helpful. Upon identifying the problem they talked me through the solution and dealt with is cleanly and expertly. No mess or leaks and reasonable cost. Will definitely use them again if any other problems arise.
I was very pleased with the work that Simon and his team did supplying and fitting a new bath for me, nothing seemed to be to much trouble ,the care and time they took to make sure that everything was done to a good standard .I would recommend them to all who need.good and reliable work done.many thanks to Simon. and his team.
Very happy with the service and finish delivered by SCS. Our toilet had a leak which they were able to quickly respond to, without much notice, identify the issue and repair it right away.
Excellent service beginning to end. I definitely recommend SCS Plumbing & Heating. Luke particularly, showed such professionalism and he was very kind.
SCS Plumbing and Heating did a complete refit of our bathroom. They listened carefully to our requirements as well as giving advice where needed. They always arrived promptly and left the house each day in a clean and tidy state. They were always polite and involved us in any decisions that needed to be made along the way. They work to very high standards. We are delighted with our new bathroom and would thoroughly recommend them to others.
Excellent experience with SCS friendly efficient and trustworthy. No problems with my very small bathroom. Simon was fabulous with ideas and solutions designing my ideal space. 100% recommend this company.
I have booked the job as emergency and it was attended same day and resolved the issue quickly.
From the very first contact with SCS Plumbing and Heating Ltd. we knew the personnel were both professional and business like. They understood exactly what we required for our bathroom update, gave a full accurate costing, and the work was completed on time. Both Simon and Luke were extremely hardworking, and their standard of work ensured good attention to detail. They kept us updated each day, and checked the siting of appliances before installation. Our hallway and stairs were superbly protected against any dirt and dust, and the site was cleaned by them on a daily basis. They even hoovered the garage which had been used as a store/workshop. Simon and Luke were friendly and polite, completed our work to a very high standard, and I would recommend the company without reservation.
Great team, efficient, would not stop until they had resolved the fault, really friendly and well priced. Recommended.
I can recommend SCS Plumbing and Heating highly enough from his first visit to the house to advise on two bathroom refits Simon was amazing he had lots of ideas to suit any budget and was very knowledgeable about what could be achieved. The day they started we met Luke who was onsite every day working on the project he was also amazing, working from 8am everyday somedays late into the evening. Simon and Luke are determined to offer gold star customer service, and ensure that the client ends up with amazing bathrooms. I have never had people in to work in the house that are so tidy and organised, all my carpets were covered to protect them. At the end of the day they hoovered all down the stairs, the hallway and even the car port where they had been cutting materials!! It really is a first class service. We have now already booked them to refit our downstairs cloakroom in a few weeks. I guarantee you will not find a company that offers a better customer service than Simon. Will be recommending them in the future for certain. Keep up the amazing work.
Bathroom was done nice and properly. It resolved the leaking issue in the bathroom. Both Luke and Simon are very professional. I recommend their service and will definitely use their service again. Thank you SCS plumbing!
We've used Simon and his team for many years now. They always do a fantastic job. Recommend 100%.
Absolutely amazing service! I had struggled to find a heating engineer to resolve my intermittent hot water issue. Simon diagnosed it without even viewing my boiler, the work was done by Luke the next day! Honest, reliable and highly recommended!
Called SCS in an emergency . I had no previous dealings with SCS but the owner (Simon) came to my aid promptly and saved a disaster. They have since restyled my on -suite replaced all our taps and fitted various heated towel rails etc. Polite smart and excellent standard set by the owner and carried on by his staff. Cant speak more highly of the company. Thankyou again. P.Ruocco
Wonderful Service very pleased and happy for the work been carried out we have used this company now a good few times,a lovely team very polite and helpful Simon goes out of his way to make sure the customer is happy. Thank you
SCS plumbers are a brilliant company. I have used them for boiler services, replacing like for like in my bathroom and fixing an issue with a radiator. All of the team members I have met have been great, know what they are doing and turn up when they say they will. Highly recommend.
Superb work from SCS. Highly recommended. i found them knowledgeable. Professional, clean and tidy, Reliable. Feel lucky to have found this Co. Simon and his team have done some amazing work for me in my current and old properties. Renewed my gas pipes. Worked with me and helped me design my bathrooms and converted garage space into a laundry area.
SCS were used for our daughters and parents houses to fit new boilers. Both were completed to a high standard,quickly and at a reasonable price. I would happily use SCS again.
