This time we needed a new boiler and there was no question that we’d be using them for this too. The work was carried out to a high standard and as always Matt communicated with us throughout the process. It’s hard to find quality trades people but I’ve recommended Archers to lots of people and will continue to do so as they’re top notch." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "First class. Arrived on time and installation was perfect. Could not fault them and would definitely use them again." > Source: Alister H (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "Matt was excellent. His knowledge and practical advice were superb. From the start, his main aim was to understand our problem and solve it. He didn’t rush in and assume things. Above all else, he was easy to talk to. He kept us informed throughout. And after saying all this, he solved a tricky problem with our ensuite radiator that had eluded others before him. I would thoroughly recommend Matt." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Plumber, Gas Engineer ## Services they list _Listed on public sources or the business's own website; check directly that they cover your job before you book:_ - Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing - Blocked Baths - Blocked Sinks - Gas Boiler Installation - Gas Boiler Servicing / Repair - Gas Central Heating Installation - Gas Central Heating Servicing / Repair - Gas Cooker Installation - Gas Safety Checks - CP12 - General Plumbing - Pipe Fitter - Plumbing Repairs ## Areas covered _Towns and areas this trader lists serving.

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. - For the water-regulations side of plumbing, a WaterSafe-approved plumber is vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. You can check yours or find one free at watersafe.org.uk. - Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else. ## Contact - Phone: 07492 813840 --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/archers-heating-plumbing-limited Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source, with evidence held from 3 named public sources.
