Lucans Ltd

Installed our air source heat pump - from the initial planning work through to the post installation service work, Lucans have been excellent - friendly, proactive and professional. I cannot imagine a better air source heat pump installer in the North!

James did a professional job, hassle free and always helps with queries on my air source heat pump installation ! Would highly recommend

I had an air source heat pump fitted approx 2 years ago by James, the system has worked perfectly ever since. James is very reliable and friendly. He recently visited to service my system and again I found him to be very professional and friendly. Lucans in my opinion provide an excellent service and I would highly recommend them.

James designed and fitted a new heating system and air source heatpump into 1920s terrace in Amble that I was renovating. Really pleased with the quality of the work and attention to detail. The key with heat pumps is to do a proper heat loss calculation and think about the design to match the system to the needs; which James did with expertly.

Solar Thermal service requested urgently for house sale. Service done the same day with a detailed report, reasonable price. Very efficient and professional, excellent company.

I had a number of companies out to assess and advise me on the best approach and heat pump solution for my set up - which was complex with already having solar pv, battery storage and solar thermal. He came up with a solution that allowed me to make the most of what I had and install a heat pump with underfloor heating. He was totally up to speed with the latest developments in the heat pumps and his advice to wait and get an r290 heat pump meant that I saved over £5k and very low cost set up now without any gas. He is punctual and is committed to making sure you have a system the works with no issues.

AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMP REPAIR Prompt service very knowledgeable about all aspects of heat pumps. Fault was diagnosed and appropriate repair carried out. James was efficient and explained what the problem was then carried out the repair. Wouldn't hesitate to use again and I recommend his service. Anne

Had an Air Source Heat Pump installed 4 years ago after getting several quotes, Lucans worked with us to get a design that we wanted, others just wanted to sell their solution. Everything was great throughout the entire process, right from the design and heat loss calculations, to getting the system installed and setup just as expected, the system has worked well ever since. We've had James back each year since to do the Air Source Heat Pump service to keep everything in top condition, can't fault anything and always good to catch up and have a chat whilst taking a look at everything, making sure it's as it should be ready for the winter ahead

James has just been out to sort out our wireless Heatmiser thermostats. All 18 of them! He’s done a sterling job as they’re all running smoothly again. Plus, he recorded himself doing one so I can repeat it myself, if necessary. His cost was very reasonable. His communication was excellent. He contacted me when he said he would and kept in touch to tell me that he’d be late. He was knowledgable and professional and I would have absolutely no hesitation in using him again as well as recommending him to others.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Lucans. After many crazy quotes and undeliverable suggestions, James was the first person/company to address our specific solar needs. His quote was sensible both on price and practicality. The work was done to the specified timeframe and in a tidy fashion.

We commissioned Lucans to install a Mitsubishi Ecodan ASHP and water tank in our house. There were cheaper alternatives to Mitsubishi but we felt the extra quality was worth paying extra for, and in the "higher quality equipment" list of quotes, Lucan's was very competitive. Our installation was complicated by the fact that we needed our existing (8mm MicroBore) central heating pipes replacing. From the outset, Lucan's were very respectful of our property and tried to minimise the disruption; an example of this would be working to ensure that we had hot water available by the end of day 1. They communicated their plan of action which enabled us to ensure that room access was facilitated. During the week, they turned up early each morning (pre-08:30), which helped ensure that the work was done in a timely fashion. Their approach was methodical and professional, remaining calm even when the inevitable issues occurred (one main issue being a huge water leak, which was not their fault, but which they addressed). All in all, we were very impressed with Lucans during this work. Would I want to do this job again? Absolutely not. If we had to do this work again, would I use Lucans again? Unhesitatingly.

We are delighted to recommend Lucans if you are considering a "Air Source Heat Pump" installation. We found that the whole process was dealt with outstanding skill and knowledge. The accomplished friendly team ensured we were fully informed of all the steps involved and due to the excellent work, the system was successfully installed within one week. Lucans were very responsive to our specific concerns and needs and has continued to support us through the commissioning phase and beyond. All waste was removed effectively and the loft left an a very acceptable condition. This project was one of the best and stress free experiences we have had to date.

Very organised & good work

Lucans carried out full heat loss calculations before advising me on the best air source heat pump for my property. Satisfied with the unit and unvented hot water cylinder that was specified, We had them both installed and commissioned, the old gas boiler was also removed during this process. The whole install was very professional and all work was carried out in a timely manner. A full handover was completed and we were shown how to properly operate the Air source heat pump. Would highly recommend Lucans for any Renawbles or Gas Safe work.

I was passed James' details from a work colleague when I was looking to install solar PV and battery storage on my roof. From our first meeting through to completion, James was brilliant. He was always providing me with updates on delivery dates. The installation was fantastic, even when trying to find cables routes in our Victorian terrace, which isn't always an easy thing to do. I wad so impressed that I got James back to install more solar PV on another roof on the house. Highly recommended!

Recently had a new gas combi boiler fitted by James and some gas pipework altered behind our gas oven as it was causing a problem the gas boiler was installed in a day as he said it would and a few days later when convenient for us the pipework was altered to suit. Both times the house was left tidy as he found it and rubbish removed I wholeheartedly recommend James for anything to do with gas in the home thank you.

James and the team fitted us with 10 new solar panels and a couple of batteries, inverters etc, and since it went live last week we have spent virtually nothing on electricity. He explained everything I might need and the differences in brands, performance, warranties etc….. James was superb. Spent over an hour on his first visit figuring out what we wanted and what would be good value for us, depending on our home, life and kids etc. A day later we had our quote. It wasn’t the first quote we received, I had spent over £250k installing 300 panels at my work, and asked those guys who did that job to price the work at home. They told me I would spend over 50% more than James quoted, and not only that, another £17.5k would be needed for a new roof. It didn’t add up. Kind of wish I met James before commissioning the work job!! James, who lives locally to me, said that was rubbish, the roof was old but fine to work with, and any cracked tiles that occurred he could just replace. Which he did - of course. The quote came in, I said yes, all the paperwork was done and we set a date about 6-8 weeks later. 2 weeks later James rings me, he’s had a cancellation and he can do us on week 3!! Literally the Next day scaffolders are in (Saturday) and he sets to work Monday. Tuesday night (and the whole team were all there late evening) and the system is operational, the tiles are all good and the power is flowing!! Not only this, but because of some of the old wiring in the garage, James has sorted a new wiring rig and new external fuse box in the garage and cabling to make it all up to date and safe. Legend. It’s been fusing the washing machine for years and now it’s perfect. Sometimes it’s nice to know you have a professional working on your home and James is exactly that. Both in his work and his attitude. I offered to pay up front as we moved timings etc, but he insisted that I only paid when invoiced - once everything was sorted. If there were more James’ in the world we would all be better off. If you want service / and to avoid those who look to exploit / and quality James is your guy. Thanks Sam I would add more photos if could, but to give an idea, the panels went up at the back of the house

Replaced Gas Boiler with Air Source Heat Pump. James and his team were efficient and kept us informed at all stages of progress. Kept the inconvenience of the switchover to a minimum. Left with clear instructions on how it all works. Very pleased.

James Lucan and his team organized and carried out the work to an excellent standard and provided great customer service.

Excellent service, very professional and patient with post-installation (LG Airsource Heatpump) questions. 100% recommended.

Installed a heat pump with new pipework to the radiators which was previously 8mm micro bore. Radiators upgraded where required. The installation was done in accordance with the survey they carried out, and the running costs have turned out to be exactly as the survey indicated. The complete installation was completed in 3 days, and the house was left clean and tidy. A very professional installation.

Superb company to deal with from start to finish. We had them install a Thermal Solar Hot Water System, it took around 3 days to complete and any mess was cleared away leaving our home as it was found. The completed system is terrific, we have piping hot water (most of which is now free) and the hot water pressure is so much better than when it was on a combination boiler. The panels were fitted to a flat roof using a framework that they built and all of the pumps and tanks are hidden away in our loft. I'm so glad that we had this work done and even more that I used such a great company.

A fantastic service from the start, a very helpful and friendly attitude coupled with an in depth knowledge make Lucans an excellent choice. Highly recommend.

James and co. installed a heating system with an Air Source Heat Pump for me.; I am very pleased at the result. James was always happy to listen to what I had to say and when there were teething troubles James came back very promptly to fix them.

Really professional service on GSHP which Lucans Ltd installed last year. Proper time-served engineers who are experienced in the renewable energy sector

Always chatty & Profesional. Sorted the best option for us. A Detailed quote and contract. Started on the agreed day with insallation of the High Tempurature Split Air Sourse Heat Pump completed as forecast. Highly recomended professional Team.
