Highlights
“I honestly can’t recommend Kevin enough. From start to finish, he made both me and my wife feel completely at ease, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. His professionalism and quality of work really stood out, and we’re genuinely so pleased with the results. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kevin again for any future work — highly recommended. Thanks again, Kevin 👍🏾”
“Our CH boiler stopped working on Saturday morning. Called our maintenance company who didn't pick up (I discovered later that they had gone into administration) so I found Kevin on Which Trusted Traders. Kevin was busy working elsewhere on Saturday but came on Sunday; he diagnosed the problem (a faulty circuit board) and on Monday he picked up a replacement and fitted it (even though it meant coming straight from a funeral he had attended). I was impressed with the care he took to be sure it was the PCB and not something else, and with his dedication to get us fixed as soon as possible. He wa”
“Came home from holiday to find the heating wasn’t working - within 45mins, Kevin had located the problem, sourced replacement parts & completed the job to a high standard - will definitely be using in the future for any other jobs that come up! Efficient & honest 👍🏼”

My boiler broke down and Kevin installed a new one and done a power flush this only took him 2 days then the new boiler was up and running and my hot water and heating was a lot better then it was before I would highly recommend
Fantastic engineer superb work
Verified by Checkatrade
I highly recommend Kevin from Elsby Engineering. We had three separate leaks in our apartment, one under the kitchen sink, one under the bathroom basin, and another under the bath and Kevin dealt with all of them professionally and thoroughly. He took the time to properly diagnose each issue and explained clearly what needed to be done. The leaks were fixed properly, not rushed, and everything was tested to make sure it was 100% watertight before he finished. Kevin also replaced the bathroom taps, sink waste and plug, as well as the bath taps and shower, all fitted perfectly and working exac

If only I could add more stars to this recommendation. Kevin is an excellent tradesman. Kevin came out to fix my boiler when I had no heating or hot water. Within minutes he'd diagnosed the issue, got the spare part out of the van and had it all working again. Kindly went around and vented all of our radiators and gave us some advice with our Hive thermostat. Would highly recommend Kevin to anyone that needs a friendly, experienced plumber
Kevin is fantastic , superb work !

Verified by CheckatradeAir Source Heat Pump install
Kevin was brilliant, I had a whole new system installed and he knows his stuff. He even went out his way to explain what he was doing during the work. (Even though I hardly understood most of it) Regardless I knew my home was in good hands with this guy. Honestly I don't normally bother to write reviews but his friendly banter, professionalism, and attention to detail made me take the time to write this. 5 ⭐ plumber, great work and reasonably priced. ,👍
Verified by CheckatradeBoiler kept turning of
As a tradesman myself I’m very fussy and quiet inpatient with time wasters but when I got hold of Kevin’s number he was straight to the point no time wasting or trying to get every penny out of me he came an sorted it exactly when he said he would. Very rare that people take pride in their work these days but kevin does. An he’s a very knowledgeable bloke. I still call him to pick he’s brains now and again wile planning a new bathroom as il have him back as soon as im ready

Gas work is restricted by law to Gas Safe registered engineers. If they'll touch a boiler or any gas appliance, confirm they're currently on the register before you hire - it's free and takes a minute.
Check the Gas Safe RegisterBy law, anyone working on your gas appliances must be on the Gas Safe Register. Ask to see their Gas Safe ID card and check the licence number at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start.
Never let an unregistered person touch your gas: unsafe gas work risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire and explosion, and is a criminal offence.
For a boiler or appliance install, get the work and price in writing and keep the Gas Safe / Building Regulations certificate they are required to give you.
