Boiler repair.

I don’t often write reviews but Hew thoroughly deserves this.
I called for an urgent appointment as my boiler failed. He attended asap and did his best to resolve the issue in a timely manner.
He was assisted by his apprentice and I must say that I have been positively impressed by the way he interacted and expressed everything. This is an excellent professional man. Well done sir. Thank you.

A gem of a find

Top Notch! Why? You are in the hands of an expert. Huw is just so thorough and gets to the root of the problems. He also happens to be a genuinely respectful and honest gentleman and he is Welsh!
Also, my partner is away and I needed someone whom I could trust. Huw was the man. I feel reassured now as Huw is now just a dial away...

Honest, courteous and professional.

Isaac was courteous and professional in fitting new taps in our bathroom and kitchen. When an unavoidable problem arose trying to remove one old tap that was pretty much corroded into place, he was careful and honest in sorting it out. Very good service all round. Thanks.

Amazing service

Amazing service. We had no hot water or heating over Easter. Huw came out on Easter Monday and solved the problem quickly.

Problem solved

Another company told me my boiler couldn’t be fixed and I’d need a new one. Instead I asked Huw to have a look at it. He recognised the problem and fixed it for a fraction of the cost. That was 4 years ago and my 23 year old boiler is still going strong. There’s no one else I trust to keep my boiler working like Huw.

Able to diagnose and fix faults other plumbers are stumped with

I have used Thornhill Plumbing on a number of occasions. Huw is highly competent, efficient, and a very clean worker. He is always reliable, turning up on time, and helpful to deal with. There have been times where we have had faults on boilers that other plumbers have not been able to overcome. Huw is highly versatile. He has fixed faults from the very newest, and modern combi condensing boilers to a very ancient 42 year old Baxi back boiler. Such old boilers are increasingly requiring specialist skills and knowledge to work on, let alone diagnose any complex faults that they may have. Huw is more than able to work on both boilers, with confidence, and relaxed ease. Highly recommended from start to finish.

Best plumber ever!!!

I have no hesitation in recommending Huw, who is a fantastic heating engineer /plumber. He is kind, friendly, thorough, conscientious and takes great pride in his work. He goes above and beyond for his customers. He helped me out in 2018 when I needed a new boiler installation in a new location in my house in the middle of a freezing winter. He was the only person prepared to do the work and site the boiler in the best place that avoided lots of ugly pipes on internal and external walls. He wanted to make sure I was happy with the work, rather than do what would have been easier for him. That is such a rarity these days. I've never met another plumber who would do the same. Since 2017, he has done regular boiler services for me as well as and other jobs in my home. He's just completed my annual boiler service and had been as thorough, diligent and polite as ever! I'm pleased I can still get a boiler service done by Huw in Cardiff, but the people of Poole are very lucky to have him for all the other work he does!

We had a slight problem with our boiler…

We had a slight problem with our boiler the C.Heating side was fine but the hot water for the taps was intermittent at best this morning. Our usual plumber was not able to help, I found Huw via a search, I am glad I did & my commiserations to the people of Cardiff, I would recommend him without hesitation he was polite, and sorted out the boiler & we will be using him to service it in the future.

Excellent service

We have used Huw on two occasions now for an emergency call out and he has been fantastic both times. Would highly recommend using this service. Always quick to respond, solves the issue and offers advice for future maintenance.

Great plumber/heating engineer

Huw is a great plumber: hardworking, knowledgeable and great value-for-money. If only all tradespeople were as good as he is! I'm gutted he has left Cardiff but seriously, he is the best plumber I have experienced.
I don't normally leave online reviews but he deserves one, I will put the 'date of experience' being for the last work done which was a leaking toilet and bath fixed in March 2022.

First rate visit

Huw has been servicing our boiler annually for several years. I can categorically say that his work is exemplary. He is 100 percent professional. He works efficiently and explains the work he is doing in great detail.
I have no hesitation in recommending him to any prospective customer.
