Highlights
“Phil did a good job of replacing my old oil boiler for a new one. I’m very happy with his work which was undertaken in a friendly and professional manner and at a fair price.”
“New to the Chalk Valley area, we needed guidance in replacing an obsolete Rayburn solid-fuelled back-boiler with a modern oil-fired central heating system. This required additional radiators etc., and obvious upheaval throughout the house. Phil carefully explained the proposed plan of works in each room; he assured us that that it was a straight-forward job well within his year's of experience. His estimate proved competitive, and his professional and calm manner convinced us that 'he was the person'. Throughout the job, we realised that we had made the right decision. All has been completed, and we happily recommend Phillip Daniels to others . . . and, in case you wonder, we had never heard of him! A real gem!”

Phil conducted the OFTEC inspection of a newly installed boiler and unvented water system. He ensured a number of safety measures were introduced before submitting the report for the compliance certificate. Phil also followed up with OFTEC when there were delays in the issuing of the certification, which was then turned around quickly. I appreciated his professional approach to the job and willingness to respond quickly when requested. Thank you Phil.

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.
