DDWilson is a "Vaillant Mastertech Accredited," ensuring our customers uphold the highest boiler services standards. One of our most recent achievements was winning the "Global 100 Winner 2022." This recognition and other accolades affirm our commitment to high-quality service provision in the boiler installation industry. Our commitment to elite quality service has also granted us an affiliation with the Guild Of Master Craftsmen from 2020 to 2023. Finally, our team holds Gas Safe Certification, a mandatory qualification for UK professionals working on gas appliances. DD Wilson gas engineers have been in the industry since 1998. Started as Wilson Gas in 2006, initially as a sole trader with an old Ford Escort 55 diesel and 100 business cards relayed to an old dial house phone. The vision and mission were clear. We wanted to be the premium local service company that became the household name for people living in the Merseyside Cheshire and North Wales area when their heating or hot water problems should arise. We wanted our people to think of us immediately and choose us as their best option for boiler repairs or installations. The company's name came from the founder and the secretary's children, Darren and Dylan. We started our spare box room inside our family home. The boys were on the floor, under the table, as their mum was working 7 am till 9 pm daily to earn the loyalty and trust we are renowned for. All this while Darren, the dad, was alone on the road, delivering the results and creating the relationships with our customers we still have today. From strength to strength In 2008, we decided to form DD Wilson Sole Traders with a vision that one day, the boys would be able to help Dad and keep the business with our family for centuries to come. In 2018, we formed DDwilson Gas Engineers Ltd and moved into our Big Unit in Knowsley Industrial Park, where we now take on 12 full-time staff, including a gas apprentice and admin apprentice. We're as accurate and as genuine as they come. Regulars always ask how the kids and dogs are doing, as they are forever with us. If they are not in school, they are undoubtedly in our friendly office or the van with Dad occasionally, meeting the customers and earning their pocket money. Our message is clear: we give you "No Stress and No Mess." Using quality products and premium service with aftercare from a family that does care. We provide installation service and repairs to all domestic gas appliances, mainly Central Heating and Boilers. We do loads for the local people where and when we can, and it's "Nice to be Nice". We sponsor Carla Lane Animal Rescue in Melling because we love the animals. We have given so much to our community directly from us to them when we encounter the challenges they face. Our business has stepped in to improve their lives, and we take great pride in this. "YOU KNOW THE ONE" We sponsor local football teams and often give out lots of freebies for local charities and people we find that are in need. We don't just take the money and leave. We create a personal relationship with each of our customers, which helps us grow. In 2020, we were awarded, "The 2020 SME Business Awards (Best Boiler & Heating Installation Service Northwest). The same year, we became the 5-star reviewed boiler company on Trustatrader in the Northwest. It has taken a lot of hard work and effort to ensure our customers have the same service and are giving us the correct feedback. This has helped us to grow as a company, as Trustatrader only use customer reviews from genuine customers. We are so proud of all our staff and customers for making this happen. With 2020 being one of the most challenging times, DD Wilson carried on supporting our customers and helping out where we could. After being recognised and awarded "Guild of master craftsmen 2020", we haven't looked back. Our plan is straightforward: keeping you guys happy for decades to come. You only care how much we know. When you know how much we care. Thanks for reading about us. We hope we get to meet you soon. Darren & Claire

Great all round service

Great all round service. Plumber arrived in time and gave me a call beforehand to say when he would be here. The plumber was great, explained everything and done a fantastic job. Would recommend 100% to anyone and would call them first time if another job is required.

Five-Star for DDWilson (Boiler & Shower Installation)

Five-Star Feedback for DDWilson (Boiler & Shower Installation)
We are absolutely delighted with the service provided by DDWilson for our new boiler and shower installation. The exceptional experience, from initial contact to completion, is a testament to the high standards set by the company's management.
Management and Organisation
We want to recognize Darren, the manager, for fostering a culture of excellence. The professionalism and quality of work delivered by his entire team,Claire, Paul, and Tristan, is a direct reflection of his strong leadership.
The process was made seamless thanks to Claire in the office. She was a brilliant organiser, presenting all options clearly and ensuring the installation schedule was perfectly suitable for us.

Flawless Boiler Installation (Paul)
Paul installed our new Vaillant boiler (a full system conversion) and proved to be an exceptional engineer whose attention to detail was remarkable.
Before starting, Paul provided detailed advice and options. The final placement is absolutely perfect, fitted into the kitchen cabinet with millimetre precision, it looks superb.
The job involved a massive system conversion, including removing the old cylinder upstairs and reservoir tanks from the loft. Paul completed this quickly, ensuring we had hot water the same day. His skill with the plumbing was phenomenal: he managed over 30 pipe joints, all flawlessly welded and bent with zero leaks, a truly professional, clean job.
His dedication went beyond engineering. Where the old flue was removed, he patched the wall with cement and bricks that matched the existing wall perfectly. His restoration work was so good, it was better than a professional builder's finish!
He finished by providing a thorough tutorial on how to use the boiler and the remote control.
Shower Installation (Tristan)
Tristan came on a separate day to complete the shower installation. He gave us great options, and we selected the square-style design. Tristan did a perfect job fitting it, and it looks beautiful. He is a highly competent and very nice professional.
In summary: We couldn't be happier with the service from DDWilson. Darren's team, Claire, Paul, and Tristan,deliver five-star service across the board. Paul's technical skill and attention to detail, in particular, made this installation completely stress-free. We would highly recommend this company to anyone.

Cant recommend enough

Cant recommend DD Wilson enough. From start to finish the service was excellent. The manager contacted us straight away, came around within 48 hours and 24 hours after that we had a new boiler and thermostat fitted. The lads that fit the boiler were great and everything was left tidy.

D.D Wilson Plumbing

D.D. Wilson Plumbing have been outstanding from start to finish. They arrived on time, kept us updated throughout, and worked late into the evening to make sure the job was completed. The quality of their work is excellent, the price was spot on, and they left the house immaculate. The lads were friendly, professional and went above and beyond. Couldn’t fault them and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for reliable plumbers.

Absolutely brilliant service from D.D. Wilson Plumbing. They turned up exactly when they said they would, stayed until 8pm to get the job finished, and the communication throughout was spot on. The lads were fantastic – friendly, professional, and extremely clean – the house didn’t need any tidying at all afterwards. The price was fair and I couldn’t be happier with the quality of the work. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Boiler Installation

I’d gotten in touch with DD Wilson after my boiler completely broke down and being let down by a few other local recommendations.

I live in an apartment on the top floor so it was no easy task installing a new boiler but Darren came out to assess the job and put me at ease with any of my concerns.

It was a big job on the day, involving roofer, cherry picker but nothing was too much trouble and the engineer on the day, Paul, worked from day until night to get the job done.

I’m very happy with the service received from start to finish and I would happily recommend DD Wilson.

We had our new boiler installed and the service was excellent. Response was quick, efficient, and professional throughout the entire process. They arrived on time, completed the installation with minimal disruption, and made sure everything was working perfectly before they left. They also took the time to explain how to use the new system, which we really appreciated.

Absolutely Outstanding Service – Highly Recommend!

Contacted DD Wilson to service our Megaflo system and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Stephen was incredibly professional, friendly, helpful, and approachable. He took the time to clearly explain how both the boiler and Megaflo worked, which was hugely appreciated. He identified and explained the issues thoroughly and gave sensible, clear advice on managing them.

After the service, Stephen returned promptly to fix the issues he had identified—again with great communication and a high standard of work.

The admin staff—both over email and on the phone—were equally brilliant: friendly, efficient, and quick to respond. The quote was reasonable, and they were flexible with timings, working around our schedule without any fuss.

Excellent communication throughout and great follow-up too. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and will definitely use again.
