“C&R Plumbing and Heating Contractors gave us a quote that was competitive and thorough, Jamie spent over half an hour considering every part of the job that was required, which made us feel that the quote was going to be accurate and that the job was going to be completed by a company that knew what they were doing. I was not disappointed, Jamie and his gang were polite, tidy, helpful and most importantly knowledgeable. I felt completely confident with them and they did a fantastic job with my central heating, despite challenges it presented. I would recommend them to everyone!”
