Five stars!

Certas always give the best price ( I usually ring around 3 companies when needing oil) and delivery time frame. Staff are very friendly and helpful on the phone and the delivery driver always jolly and respectful of our property when backing in and out with the tanker.
Love the way we are kept informed of exactly when the oil is coming too. Email invoicing very convenient.
We also used them to have our boiler serviced (also a lovely chap) so a one stop shop for all fuel connected requirements.
