I contacted Active Heating for some work to be carried out. Lewis came around and he explained what he would be doing. He did a great job running in some pipework.
He left the area clean and tidy. Lewis was very polite and respectful. Definitely a company I would use again.
Raymond Goodridge
Home Owner
I contacted Active Heating Services on behalf of my elderly parents whose oil boiler wasn’t working. It was a Friday before Bank Holiday and their heating and hot water wasn’t working.
The Active Heating team were fabulous, within a couple of hours they had visited & fixed the issue, so a huge thank you
