Annual service as part of my maintenance contract means worry free heating and hot water. Service and parts included in monthly payment so no unexpected bills to cover. Engineer always advises on arrival time, is polite and efficient ensuring customer is advised on what is being done and gives safety advice. Highly recommend for peace of mind.
