Highly reccomend. Very professional and respectful of the house while undertaking the work, found a solution to meet our budget and went above and beyond expectations. Had no troubles since install and house feels brand new.
Outstanding service from start to finishI recently had my boiler replaced by Stark Heating & Gas Ltd and couldn’t be more impressed with the service provided.The response time to inspect the issue with my previous boiler was exceptionally quick (2 hours after calling) and the diagnosis was clear and professional. Once it was agreed that a replacement boiler was required, I was genuinely surprised at how competitive the costs were for both the supply and installation.Additional work was needed on my flue, which was fully included in the scope. Despite requiring involvement from a third party, Garry managed every aspect of the replacement seamlessly. Throughout the entire process, I was kept well informed of progress, which made the experience straightforward and stress-free.The new boiler was fitted in a clean and tidy manner, with real care taken in the workmanship. From the initial inspection through to quoting, invoicing, and final installation, the customer experience was excellent — efficient, transparent, and high quality at every stage.I would highly recommend Stark Heating & Gas Ltd. The whole process was convenient, professionally managed, and delivered without any compromise on quality.
Garry and Ryan and Nicola from Stark Gas and Heating are just the best. Reliable, helpful when our Hive went offline. Serviced our boiler and fixed our leaking radiator. Highly recommend this family run business.
Fast and speedy service! Received a call to book in the annual service and on the day received an ETA which was really handy. Service during the visit was thorough and everything was completed and checked to a high standard.
Recently had my annual boiler service carried out by Stark Heating & Gas. Communication was excellent i.e. confirmation of booking, arrival time etc and the service was very thorough. Will definitely use Stark Heating & Gas going forward.
We have used Gary for a few years now simply because the service is always excellent.They are polite, courteous, prompt, friendly and totally professional . If you are looking for someone to rely on then give Stark Heating a call. I’m sure you too will be delighted with their service.
Arrived on time (actually called to say they were able to attend a bit earlier). Introduced themselves and explained what was happening with the job every step of the way. Cannot fault the team. Very pleasant and would highly recommend if you are looking for local team to look after boiler.
We recently had our boiler serviced by Stark Heating & Gas, Gary and the team were extremely helpful and efficient from start to finish, turning up on time and completing a thorough service of our boiler which they fitted a year ago. I would have no hesitation recommending them.
Had Stark Heating & Gas install a new boiler for us. They were recommended to us by another heating engineer and we are so grateful that they did. The whole team Nicola, Garry and Ryan were efficient and friendly. Nicola was on the ball organising appointments and dealing with enquiries. Garry and Ryan worked tirelessly to get the installation done. They even arranged for the builders to come and brick up our old flue hole. We had a couple of wee snags that were acted upon so promptly by the whole team and you can really see that Garry cares for his customers. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this family team to anyone. Happy to have my heating in their hands going forward.
Great service, communication was spot on, competitive price and turned up exactly as promised and carried out the work quickly, efficiently and neatly - can't ask for more than that!
