Boiler service - Excellent Service from Steve

Recently used Afterglow Heating for a routine boiler service after a recommendation. Steve was excellent throughout - good communication, efficient on the day, and went above and beyond to help with another plumbing issue unrelated to the boiler. Will definitely be using Steve's services in the future.

Very happy to recommend this business. Serviced boiler & carried out landlord’s gas safety inspection at property we rent out. Prompt, clean & tidy, thorough, fair price & efficient with paperwork. Nice to find such a reliable, local, tradesperson.

Good service

I'd happily recommend Afterglowheating.
Steve was clear on what the boiler service would entail.
Arrived on time and went about the boiler service.
Also showed me how to re-pressurize the boiler for the next time when the pressure dips to red.

I couldn’t be any happier with the service I received from Steve and Pete. Both extremely professional from quote to installation. My new boiler and unvented tank was installed in the time they said with minimal mess and disruption. 10/10

Amazing service

I can’t recommend Steve at afterglow heating enough. He took out our old boiler and the tanks in the airing cupboard and loft and installed a combi boiler and shower for us. He was absolutely amazing…very curtious, tidy and super helpful and we will certainly be using him again for any ongoing needs. He arrived exactly when he said he would and he even responded quickly to an enquiry that I had on a Sunday evening.

Good service

Steve was proactive and friendly in keeping me up to date throughout the process from quote to fitting. There was a supply delay due to issues from the fire’s manufacturer which I was informed of and offered an alternative fire. I decided to await for supply of my original choice and the fire was fitted in the timescale Steve promised. The fitters were friendly, helpful and did a quality job.

Professional and prompt

Steve contacted us to advise that our boilers annual service was due, and advised when he was available.
On the day of his visit, he contacted me again to advise what we could expect him.
Steve works in a tidy, professional manner, he is always polite and is prompt forwarding the certification to us.
Would recommend and will continue to use in future.
