Testimonials

Great and quick communication. Clean and professional work. Had an outdoor tap fitted for the garden. Responses to the enquiry and further communication was quick and helpful. Arrived on time and the job was done friendly and professionally. Would very much recommend Steve from HouseWarm.

This guy is a consummate professional and straight down the line. Got told my boiler was knackered and needed upgrading, I wanted one last roll of the dice to make certain. Good job I did. From what was meant to be kaput, he got it working like it was new again. I couldn’t recommend this guy highly enough.

I had Steven visit today to service my boiler, absolutely fantastic, efficient and even helped me diagnose a couple of other niggling issues without any further charge. I would highly recommend if anyone is looking for a reliable, knowledgeable and skilled plumber.

I contacted Steven and he came around first thing the following day and sorted the problem promptly, clearly explaining the issue, the work required and his fee. He was very courteous and left no mess. I will use Steven again and recommend him to anyone who needs a plumber/heating engineer.

Very quick response to my email enquiry, then the two radiators were replaced within days. They looked great and the work was undertaken with care. I would highly recommend and would definitely use the company again if I had any plumbing or heating needs.

Contacted Steven via email about a leak we had on our toilet. Had a prompt reply and arranged a date/time to visit. He arrived on time, managed to fix the issue within a couple of hours and left everything clean and tidy. Very professional and would highly recommend. Many thanks.

I had been having problems with my toilet flushing for over 2 years of living in my flat, I have had other plumbers look at it but was told to replace the full toilet which I could not afford. Steve came out the same day and replaced a valve in less than an hour which has got the toilet working like new, full flush every time 🙂

Service Areas

FAQs

Can an outside tap be fitted anywhere?

Yes, outside taps can be installed almost anywhere, as long as a water supply pipe can reach the location.

For taps in gardens or outbuildings, a new pipe will need to be run from the house. This pipe should be well insulated to prevent freezing in winter.

I can assess the best placement and provide a fixed-price quote.

How long does it take to fit an outside tap?

A standard garden tap installation by HouseWarm usually takes less than an hour.

If extra pipework is needed to reach the water supply, the job may take longer.

Why is my outdoor tap not working?

If your outdoor tap isn’t working, check that the isolating valve is open and allowing water through.

Possible causes include:

A faulty isolating valve stopping the flow.
A blocked check valve preventing water from passing.
A kink in the hose restricting water supply.

If the tap still isn’t working, further inspection may be needed.

Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?

Yes, all work carried out by HouseWarm is covered by a 12-month guarantee. If any issues arise due to the installation or work done, they will be fixed at no additional cost.

New fittings and parts typically come with a 12-month manufacturer’s warranty. However, in some cases, second-hand boiler parts may be the best or only option, and these might not include a warranty.
