Really pleased with the work carried out by Plumbox (boiler installation) and would highly recommend them. Excellent service: super responsive, friendly and explained things fully and clearly - did exactly what they said they would in a timely, professional manner. I'm very happy with my boiler!

Always reliable, easy communication and great service. Plumbox help me on numerous rental properties around Cambridge and always do a great job, often fitting me in at the last minute if a tenant has an emergency. Highly recommended.

Plumbox are the best
Our CO2 detector went of a number of times during the night so of course we were worried. I called Plumbox in the morning and the gas engineer arrived before lunch. They check everything including the boiler and took readings which didn't show anything so they checked the detector and found that it had expired.
Thank you Plumbox Team for you speed and efficiency!

We have used Plumbox to install a water softening system for our home. Michael adiced us on the best/most efficient solution and came out simples and less expensive than the alternative bid. They were on time for the appointment, did a great job and .left everything clean.

We have been really pleased with the work carried out by Plumbox. We would especially like to commend Adam who re-fitted our en-suite. He was very polite and considerate. Adam also took pride in his work and attention to detail. The only criticism we have is the communication with Michael and the Plumbox General Office. They were very aware that this was not always as good as it should be but despite this I have no hesitation in recommending Plumbox. I would also recommend Adam as a person who could be depended to complete the work to a high standard. I am happy to give Plumbox 5 stars for Adam's hard work.

I have used Plumbox twice for boiler servicing and gas safety checks. It's easy to contact them to make an appointment and they kept me informed about the time the engineer would arrive. The engineer was quick and efficient and explained what he was doing. I recommend Plumbox.

We've been using Plumbox for over 10 years, and always had excellent service, and competitive prices. We have used them for boiler installation and servicing, wet room and bathroom renovations as well as general pluming odd jobs. Being OAP's it's good to have tradesmen you can trust.

Right from the start we were pleased with the attention we received from Michael who listened carefully to our requirements and came up with a solution which met what we wanted and was competitively priced.
The Plumbox team worked flat out to replace the old gas boiler and update the electrics on the 2 days we had requested. They left us with some heating overnight and were careful to clean up after each day. We are more than happy to recommend Plumbox for their professional service.

Great company. Was able to fit a major job within a short space of time after the original quote. Very good after sales support when we had a slight problem. A plumber was sent to us within a couple of hours. We have no hesitation in recommending this company.

We needed to have a new central heating boiler installed due to the complete breakdown of our previous one. We selected Plumbox based on three key criteria: we wanted a supplier who was accredited for the boilers we were considering, preferably local as we believe in supporting local businesses and one that had good trusted reviews. Plumbox were contacted and came to see us promptly to look at our system and discus our needs. This was done and a quote provided soon afterwards, along with prospective start date and completion times. For comparison purposes we did get other quotes but having considered them all we decided to proceed with Plumbox. We admit that the fact they could complete the installation without delay helped.
An installation date and start time of 08.00 was agreed. It was good to see that the team arrived exactly on time and proceeded with the installation efficiently, cleanly and without delay. All went well, the friendly team showing great respect for our home and answering questions regarding the installation as they proceeded. By mid-afternoon the new boiler was installed and commissioned with the warm water proceeding to keep us warm again. Instructions on using the new boiler were given and a follow up visit arranged to hand over paper work relevant to the installation and to answer any questions.
Overall we were completely satisfied and can wholeheartedly recommend Plumbox.

We used Plumbox to change our conventional boiler to a combination one and all new radiators.
Michael was very helpful, from the survey to the installation they have been very professional, fast and clean.
We would definitely recommend that and hopefully used them for future projects in the house.

I contacted Michael at Plumbox to undertake some work in my kitchen refurbishment, which included connecting a new sink and gas hob. Whilst here, they also took a look at a slow-draining sink. They completed the work to an excellent and very thoughtful/considerate standard, which can be rare. Some tradespeople want to get in and out as quick as possible. However, the Plumbox team wanted to make sure they did the job both correctly and neatly. Brandon carried out the bulk of the work, and he was polite, courteous and knowledgeable. I have no hesitations in recommending them, and they will be my first point of contact should I need any further plumbing or gas work done in the future.

Plumbox was recommended to me by a neighbour, and recently did some work renovating our bathroom, replacing a shower tray and cubicle, shower, some taps, bath panels, and so on. Michael was a pleasure to deal with. They did a great job. Bathroom now looks great. Would definitely recommend.
