Highlights

Kevin and his grandson fitted my new boiler and based on the experience, I will definitely be asking them to perform the annual service good forward. They arrived on time, answered any questions, took care to protect the carpets etc, finished the job on time and ensured they left my home neat and tidy once finished. An unforeseen issue with the boiler installation was resolved at minimal extra cost and with no fuss. Thank you Kevin and grandson(sorry I forgot your name!).

I have used KAD Ltd for a boiler service and repair on 2 occasions in 2019 and 2021. That was good value work which was done well. However my experience in 2023 has been of very poor communication phone/text/email led to no show for a routine service request and no communication to explain. Most recently no response by phone or text to a repair request either. Hence, I would not recommend this company based on my most recent experiences.

We recently moved into a new house and within a week or so the boiler stopped working. Kevin came quickly, worked out what various problems were (a number of parts needed replacing) and got us back up and running. We are very happy with the service he has provided and are grateful he was able to come on such short notice. We will certainly be using him again.

Great service

We needed to replace a kitchen tap which involved making adjustments to the under sink plumbing. Kevin was great, got on with the job, answered any questions we had, and left everything neat and tidy. He also even did an extra job for us for a small additional cost. Courteous, honest, reliable and reasonably priced, we’ll definitely be using Kevin again for any future plumbing needs.

Endorsement Reference - Outstanding Heating Engineer and Plumber

I have used Kevin Dwyer?s services since 2012 when I came across him as a Which magazine highly recommended local trader. He is both a versatile plumber and an outstanding heating engineer, who is both honest and very competitive price-wise. On his last visit in January, he ably unblocked a drain, did a fiddly repair on our quite ancient toilet cistern, and repaired a leaky tap. i will never forget the occasion years ago, when 2 other recommended heating engineers had stated that my then 16 year old Vaillant boiler was beyond economic repair, one charging us £90 for his visit and opinion; and then Kevin spent 2 hours on a Saturday afternoon persevering with mending it, replacing parts, and charged me less than £100; with the boiler then giving great service without major faults for a further 6 years, until last year when Kevin installed a new Vaillant for me at a price £100s of pounds less than many of his competitors! A great guy and a great advert for the heating and plumbing industry!

Endorsement Reference - Best & nicest plumber - no hesitation in recommending

We had a major fire. As a result we redid our kitchen area & installed new bathrooms. Kevin was our builder?s chosen plumber. I soon lost contact with the builder but 16 years on Kevin is still my go to plumber and the plumber I recommend. He attends to both major and minor plumbing matters from installing new boilers, bathrooms & under floor heating to dealing with leaks, replacing tap cartridges etc. I can be a demanding client and Kevin has never let me down or disappointed me.

Endorsement Reference - If you want a reliable plumber and heating engineer look no further

I have been using Kevin ever since I bought my house in 2000. He did all the plumbing and heating work. He is the only person I use to maintain and service my boiler, heating system and plumbing needs. He installed a new boiler for me and regularly services it. Hequotes a fair price and does what he says (even more than he quotes for). He is honest, reliable and trustworthy and would recommend him to anyone.

Excellent work

Kevin Dwyer installed our central heating boiler in 2010. A very good professional job. We call him every year to service the boiler and it has worked splendidly. This year, for the first time, there was a problem. Kevin came promptly. He identified the problem immediately, a valve needed to be replaced. He went out to get the valve, returned quickly and fixed the problem straightaway. In ten years we have always found Kevin to be friendly, reliable and professional. We recommend him highly.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.

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 register
Agree 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.
