“Very happy with the quality of the work, the way the work was carried out (eg, Adam kept us fully informed when he would be on site), and his approach when the poor state of the system caused unexpected problems. The price was competitive, and the final bill was exactly as expected. Entirely satisfied. Warmly recommend.”

Highlights
“Adam was extremely helpful answering my numerous questions about getting the toilet replaced in conjunction with new flooring ((to be done by others). Adam arrived on time and finished the job on time. He tidied up very well and was very pleasant and helpful on the day.”
“Adam was very quick to respond when our boiler was deemed beyond repair. His quote was very competitive and he started work the day following our acceptance. Work was carried out very efficiently new boiler installed, system was flushed and left in perfect working order. Everything was explained and site was left clean and tidy. Would recommend 100%.”

Our installation required a comprehensive system replacement with up to date equipment. Adam gave sound design advice and then proceeded to install a superb system over the period of 1 week. His workmanship was of the highest order. He went beyond our expectations in terms of his approach to the work. We vacated the house and left Adam to it. On return the house was warm and absolutely spotless.
AE Lawson installed a brand new heating system throughout my house (4 bed, 3 bath) which included an unvented boiler, unvented hot water cylinder, water accumulator, water softener system, new copper pipe work throughout, installation of designer vertical radiators which are individually controlled by a wireless system (Honeywell evo home). I'm really pleased with the results! Adam was recommended to me through a friend and I've since recommended him to neighbours and friends.
I can't recommend Adam highly enough. From start to finish Adam was communicative, helpful, trustworthy, professional and has amazing attention to detail. Being new to home ownership my wife and I had little to no knowledge about what we needed to do, the cost and the implications on our house. Adam settled all these concerns from the outset and spent a significant amount of time going through our options and what the various scenarios would mean for the house and any future loft extension. We ended up choosing a condensing boiler, water tank, all new radiators and full house re-pipe. Adam took just under 2 weeks to finish the job and we were living and working in the house the entire time. He was very clean, worked quickly and methodically causing minimal disruption. At the end of each day he tidied up and never left us without water (hot and cold). Nigel (Adam's work colleague) helped on a couple of days, he was equally professional, friendly and tidy. Overall Adam provided a great service from start to finish, if you're having any job done (big or small) I would strongly recommend him. Thanks Adam!
Adam installed a combi boiler in our kitchen to replace the back boiler in our lounge. Very neat & tidy job installed just where I wanted it. We then had Adam back, along with Nigel to rip out our bathroom & install all new floor, units, wall panels & shower cubicle, all installed exactly to our requirements. Very pleased with the results.
Adam took time providing us with honest, considered information to ensure that we understood our various options before providing a competitive quote. Adam and Nigel carried out the installation of our new boiler methodically and with care, regular and honest feedback on progress was greatly appreciated. Great quality job, thanks!

AE Lawson were recommended to me and I can see why they went to amazing efforts to make everything perfect.
I can't recommend Adam highly enough. He arrived on time, and he and his colleague worked an 11 hour day (barely stopping for lunch) to replace my boiler, gas pipe, fit three thermostatic radiator valves and move some other pipework. Excellent pipework. They cleaned up as well...what more could you ask for?! Oh, and it was also the cheapest quote of four.
Adam was prompt and arrived when he said he would. He was quick and efficient. There was no mess and very reasonable prices.
Adam & Nigel did a brilliant job and we have recommended them to friends & family.
Adam created a new shower room from our downstairs toilet. He was full of ideas when he came over to quote and we were confident he would do a good job. His work is first class, he takes time to make sure everything is perfect and listened to our ideas, changing things as we went. We now have a beautiful shower, all of the pipes hidden and perfect tiling throughout. Even when we threw an extra central heating job at him halfway through, it didn't phase him, he got on with that whilst waiting for a coat of paint to dry! A nice chap, does a full day's work and cleans up at the end of each day. We couldn't ask for more and would thoroughly recommend him to all, thanks Adam.
Adam fitted a new central heating system and bathroom in my flat. He was professional and friendly in his work and always flexible in terms of meeting up to discuss requirements or make adjustments in what I wanted. I valued his advice and I am very happy with the outcome / quality of work. I would thoroughly recommend him.
Adam responded quickly to emails and questions that I sent, he was always on time and worked extremely hard fitting my new boiler. He was friendly and professional at all times. His assistant, Nigel, also attended to operate the power flush for my radiators/central heating system and did a good job. He made sure that the dust sheets were removed and my house was vacuumed before they left. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
Adam was prompt and punctual with his survey and estimate for replacing our dated heating system. Adam and Nigel were very accommodating with timings and carried out all works with the highest quality and professionalism leaving the house clean and tidy as they found it. We would highly recommend Adam and Nigel to anyone who is considered getting work done on their plumbing and heating systems.
Adam was quick to give me a detailed quote and arrived promptly at the agreed time on 13th July. He is hard working and takes pride in his work. The boiler was fitted in one day and the system drained the next day. He left my property clean and tidy and you'd hardly know he and been here. If you need a new boiler he's your man!!
Adam and Nigel were clean and tidy, polite and conscientious and went the extra mile to get the job done to a high standard. The initial quotation did not increase despite them repairing a section of flooring caused by a leaking cylinder. Highly recommended!

Approved plumbers on the free WaterSafe register are vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. Check they're listed, or find a WaterSafe-approved plumber near you.
Check the WaterSafe registerAgree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top, in writing, before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced. Get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade, not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
