What our customers say
“Richard and Rubin are a great team, very conscientious and thoughtful ensuring their work is carried out efficiently and cleanly explaining how and what they propose to do, seeking approval before starting the work. They are both friendly and approachable, willing to answer any questions. They treat your property with great care to ensure minimum disruption and ensure everything is clean and tidy during and after the work is done. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any plumbing/ central heating work.”
“We had a brilliant experience with Burns and Son just before Christmas. Our bathroom needed doing their communication, time keeping and keeping everything clean were excellent :) super impressed, would definitely recommend or use again. Thanks again guys!”
“We have no hesitation in recommending Rich and his team after having a recent bathroom redesign and fit. Having asked for some advice about our plan, Rich gave us some ideas and suggestions of where to look at sanitary ware etc. Having chosen our preferences and sent them to Rich, he was more than happy to check the suitability and this happened several times. From start to finish Rich and his entire team, which included an electrian, plasterer and tilers, were punctual, courteous and very tidy. Whenever an issue occurred Rich came up with a solution and ensured minimal stress to us. We are really delighted with the result and our only regret is not discovering this great company sooner. Rich and Reuben’s work ethic is second to none coupled with positivity and humour. We have already booked them in for the next job; good things are worth waiting for!”
