Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the excellent service, highlighting the punctuality, professionalism, and efficiency of the staff. Many people appreciate the helpful and friendly engineers who arrive on time and complete work without fuss, from boiler servicing and repairs to new installations. Consumers frequently mention the high standards and expertise of the team, noting their ability to quickly diagnose and fix issues, even for new customers. However, some customers also noted occasional issues, such as an engineer being confused about a boiler problem, leading to an unnecessary pump replacement. A few other people mentioned that a long-standing flue issue was not noticed during previous services, and one customer experienced a week-long wait for a new fuel pipe, leaving them without heating.

The guys were calling to detect the source of omission of fumes from the oil fired boiler. It's an older boiler, actually very old. It took some searching to resolve the issue. In fact, had to return the next day to complete the job due to the unfamiliar boiler. Very happy to report that there is no longer the very strong omission of fumes when boiler switched on. I was mindful that both days were extremely cold conditions for the guys to be working in, and am very grateful for work done, including in the cold weather. Thank you.

Prompt

Prompt, fixed the issue (leaking pipe) on the first visit (another company had come out, looked at it and left saying they’d be back to fix it and I never saw them again). Solv had the spare part in the van with them. Couldn’t recommend solv enough. Won’t be using anyone else!

Solv recently replaced my old oil boiler with a new gas system, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final installation, everything was handled professionally and efficiently.

Colm was great to deal with throughout — clear communication, honest advice, and always quick to respond. On the day of the install, Gareth and Blaine were excellent: punctual, tidy, and clearly skilled at what they do. The job was completed smoothly with minimal disruption, and the new system is working brilliantly.

Highly recommend Solv for anyone considering a boiler upgrade. Top team, top service.

Excellent company, excellent customer service

I've been with SOLV for donkey's years - well over 10 years. They've not only replaced my gas boiler and serviced it annually, but they've also done quite a bit of electrical work in the house too. Their engineers are polite, friendly and helpful (shout out to Stuart George) and show up on time. Can't speak more highly of the SOLV team (they really feel like a team).
