Highlights

Michael has been servicing our boiler and handling various plumbing jobs for over 10 years, consistently exceeding our expectations. His perfectionism and professionalism shine through in every task. We are so grateful for his outstanding service that our family and friends trust him as well. Thank you, Michael and Dad Steve, for your incredible help.

I called Michael on Saturday morning for an emergency boiler installation for my property and it was quoted and fully installed and registered by Sunday afternoon. Unbelievably happy and saved my tenants STRESSFUL situation. Thank you Michael.

Philip SternFreeIndex5.0 rating

Michael was super responsive, really helpful, and very sensible. So many plumbers I've had don't like having a look at our perfectly working existing boiler - they immediately say you should replace it because it's a little old. Highly recommended. Thanks Michael!

Michael Taylor owes me money, he took my deposit, removed my boiler and then disappeared! He left me with no heating or water for a week before he said he could not complete the job.

Paul McKenna5.0 / 5 ·

Great engineer. Fitted the boiler comfortably with no hiccups like my last guy. Stress free and would recommend.

Save yourself the hassle and find someone else - the service is unreliable, disorganized, and full of promises that aren't delivered. A neighbor initially recommended Michael and installed several boilers in our building. We chose him because they offered help with plastering and decorating after installation, plus two years of free checkups and gas certificates. The installation itself was done as promised, and we even recommended him to others. However, the problems started with the promised annual checkups and certificates - included in the original quote. It’s now been two months of chasing - Michael has promised to come the next day five times, and never showed up once. On one occasion, he was in the building doing another job and said he'd pop in afterwards - another broken promise. No calls, no messages, no explanation. Just silence while we waited at home for him. To add to it all, during this time, we received a 'generic' email from him offering us an offer on a yearly boiler servicing and certification for £85. We need the certificate for short-term lets (legal requirement), and he knows this, but clearly doesn’t care. The anxiety and wasted time just isn’t worth it. Look for someone more reliable.

I am incredibly grateful to have come across Michael, especially during a time when I felt completely helpless. He is a highly professional and responsible plumber. The incident happened at 7:45 PM when I was in an emergency situation due to a leaking pipe that left me at a loss. I contacted Michael, and despite being busy with work, he was fortunate enough to answer my call. For me, it was like seeing a light in the darkness, it gave me a glimmer of hope. After I sent him a video of the issue, Michael quickly assessed that the problem could be fixed. Although he was too busy to repair the leaking pipe that evening, he promised to come to my house at 6:30 AM the next morning. True to his word, he arrived on time, fulfilling his promise and efficiently resolving the issue. His professionalism and punctuality left a deep impression on me. I highly recommend Michael! He is a professional, dedicated, and reliable plumber. If you encounter similar issues, Michael will undoubtedly be the best choice.

Michael Taylor did a very competent job. He is pleasant and helpful. And his work is keenly priced. On the other hand, he is also disorganised, difficult to contact and unreliable. What should have been a small job (fitting a new boiler) took over two months from start to finish. On the very first day, Michael failed to turn up, explaining that his van had been broken into and tools stolen. I was sympathetic, of course. But then, time after time, he did not arrive as promised, with an endless range of excuses (father taken ill, somebody else's urgent emergency callout, etc, etc, etc. ) I know that many contractors struggle with time management, and that Michael's father has been unwell, but it seemed at times as if the job would drag on forever. Then, during the work, a pipe feeding my bidet hose became disconnected. I didn't notice this until I had paid his bill in full and it took dozens of phone calls, messages and, finally when all else failed, the prospect of negative feedback on this and other review sites to get him round to fix it (it took him less than an hour when he did show up). I have therefore revised the star rating upwards from my original review to reflect the fact that the job was eventually finished, but the delays and aggravatation mean that this can't be a full recommendation.This is a follow-up to my earlier review of last November. I had a new Worcester Bosch boiler installed via The Taylors Group in September. It was an extremely long process that, because of some minor snags, dragged on for two months. This weekend I returned home from a short break to find the boiler did not work - it might be a minor problem, and easily fixed, but it's the heart of winter and I am aged 72 and living alone without heating or hot water. Michael is simply not responding to calls or messages although the boiler is well under guarantee and I should be a priority client. I've found The Taylors Group to be pretty much a nightmare from the outset and would strongly advise against them.

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.
