Report
We have used Alsto-heat Ltd on three separate occasions now and we have been very pleased with their service each time. Two occasions were to install and plumb up new sinks and the latest occasion was to repair a leak we had from our boiler. We currently have a HomeCare agreement with British Gas for our boiler, but we had a similar problem last year and British Gas came to repair, but now it's happened again so we decided to call on Alsto-heat. This was just before Christmas and we had no heating. Despite being very busy, Steve arranged for someone to assess the problem the same day I called and

Got these guys in to see my heating system as it was not working very well (Over heating). Guy was nice friendly but said the boiler was broken and needed replacing. Then quoted me 4k for a new one. I did not believe him and got a second opinion. It was just a small part that needed replacing. Use them at your own risk. Get a 2nd opinion if your unsure. Also when looking at the quote boiler quoted was only 1.2k online so they wanted 350 per hour to install a new one. (Based on 8 hours work). BE WARNED These guys should be investigated.

I have used these plumbers to supply and install a Worcester Bosch boiler, rads and the full heating systems for my in-laws 3 bed house in the Cheltenham area which cost approximately 4.5k which was in the average territory for what needed to be done. Few months later I needed the same for our new house which needed a bigger boiler and 13 rads with 2 towel rads. At first everything went okay until Roger with a South African accent wanted to cut corners. Naturally I wasnt having none of it as I was paying approx 5k for this. I later realised that Roger just wanted to get the job over and
