What Blackburn Homeowners Say About Our Plumbing Specialists
New unvented hot water cylinder in our Blackburn 1980s estate house. Existing 22mm flow-and-return pipework upgraded to 28mm. Total £3600 over 4 days. WaterSafe-registered, written 12-year boiler warranty registered to our address. Boiler runs much quieter than the old one.
Slow leak under the bath was rotting the joists - plumber from BestBuilders responded within 45 minutes. Re-soldered the joint properly with proper heat shield protection. Cost £255 all-in. Insurance copy of the invoice arrived without me having to chase.
Six months on, no air-locks, no cold radiators, no callouts. Plumber we found via BestBuilders in Blackburn persuaded us into a slightly larger cylinder - much better hot water flow at peak times. Total £5425. Genuinely no part of the install I would change.
