I called the day after the Xmas break as our heating had stopped working on a very cold day. British Gas had already told me that couldn't come for a over 1 week. On calling SW Plumbing, I was greeted by a helpful administrator, she organised an appointment within 3 hours. The service engineer arrived and was professional and helpful replacing a faulty valve within 1 hour. I couldn't been happier with the service I received.
