We had this company last year to install new radiators and to do the annual boiler service, we have used them again this year to do the boiler service, highly recommend them, and also during these COVID times all precautions were taken, very happy, great service. Just used this business again to install a new bathroom sink and kitchen taps, brilliant as always

Graham and his team did a boiler replacement for us to a combi-boiler in our loft, removal of old immersion heater and tanks and tidying of pipework. From first meeting to the actual installation Graham and his team have been amazing. They answered all our questions during the decision process. The installation took place in April 2021 and was done in 2 days, and during this time, everything was done very professionally. They made time to carefully explain how the new boiler and thermostat works. The best thing is everyone was really friendly and polite and not pushy in any way. Overall they come

Our initial enquiry for moving our 5 year old boiler was very quickly responded to. A visit to confirm the job was arranged and the cost of the work was speedily confirmed by email. The actual work was undertaken in short order and the fitters were very organised, very efficient and very tidy. The fitters ensured that everything was alright and that we were fully content with their work before they left. I would have no hesitation in recommending Woods Taylor for fitting your boiler

Graham was so helpful on his first visit that after I saw him, I cancelled every other appointment that I had booked. He took his time to explain everything from the boiler, installation, flow rate, v smart control and the advantages over general ones like hive and Nest. Whenever his boys came around they were as nice as he was that I mistakenly thought they were related to Graham. Two brothers Tom and Tony came to do the job. They were fantastic and so helpful and I could thank them enough. They were very professional, so well informed and their job finishing was amazing and just perfect. I lost
