I am so pleased that I chose Dunlop Plumbing Heating & Gas for upgrading my existing central heating system to a combination boiler. I have to say this quotation was chosen because everything was set out so clearly and detailed so, thank you. Thank you also Kiaran for all your expertise and also for the competent work your apprentice Owen carried out under your guidance. I appreciated being told what was happening at each stage even to making good existing flue brickwork, perfect!! All work was carried out non stop and so professionally. I now have a first rate boiler system in my airing cupboard giving me an extra kitchen cupboard! Kiaran and Owen are a real credit to Dunlop Plumbing Heating & Gas, they were polite, kind and understanding. Would definitely highly recommend this Company.

Dunlop Plumbing has just completed our en-suite bathroom replacement. We are thrilled. A very professional job. All aspects of work completed to a very high standard including getting all our pipe work under the floor as requested, exceptional tiling and attention to detail throughout. Great communication including a very detailed quote at the outset and kept us informed throughout. Tidy and very polite too 😃👍

We recently moved to the area and wanted to get our gas appliances checked / serviced. Dealing with Dunlop on the phone was very straightforward, and we arranged an appointment. Many thanks to Owen, who attended. He was polite, explained what he had done, and tidied up after himself. We have no hesitation in recommending Dunlop!

I can thoroughly recommend Pentland Plumbing Services Ltd. They are always pleasant to deal with. They turn up on time and do a job efficiently and safely. The payment method is new to me but it is very easy and we got an OAP discount, without even asking. Brilliant.

I would just like to thank Pentland plumbing this is the second time I have used your services. Exceptional staff Tom, Sam and Jake explaining everything that was happening with my bathroom. I’m extremely happy with how it now looks you’ve totally transformed it. I asked for advice on flooring and Sam pointed me in the direction of a local firm that helped finish it off. Also thank you to Kerry and Aaron who I originally booked the appointment with for all your professional help. I would highly recommend using PENTLAND PLUMBING thank you

Friendly and knowledgeable from start to finish! Pentland very kindly commissioned our self-install UFH, connected up our manifold, etc, and made sure everything was done to meet our current and future needs. It's lovely to know that there's a plumbing service you can rely on, even when the job is a little bit niche. We will 100% be using Pentland Plumbing for all of our future plumbing jobs and will recommend without hesitation to anyone looking for a local plumber. Every member of staff was delightfully kind, helpful, and welcoming - thank you!

My dentist referred me to The Wessex Dental Specialist Centre for a tooth extraction. From my initial consultation to removing the tooth, everyone was lovely. The girls at the reception were warm and welcoming. Richard and his team were totally amazing. I was very anxious about the procedure, but Richard and his dental nurses were brilliant. They made sure I was relaxed and looked after me. They even made me laugh. :-) A BIG thank you to you all.

I was in a car accident, got knocked off my bike and suffered several injuries including the loss of 2 front teeth and another fractured and displaced. This resulted in a lengthy process including root canal, extraction, splinting and implant surgery. The dentists and nurses were caring and delivered amazing care through my treatment. They made me feel safe and comfortable through such a trauma. Huge thanks to Ben, Alistair, and Bernadette i can’t thank them enough. I would highly recommended this practise!

Was referred here for tooth extraction. I'm quite a nervous patient and was made to feel at ease by Ben. A lovely practice, super comfy waiting room. All staff look very smart and professional. Has plenty of parking spaces available which is always a bonus

I can recommend this dental practice especially Dr Ben Davies who happily removed swollen gum on my lower molar. It healed quickly and no pain. He is well experienced and also explains things well. Very reassured

I've used Cool Dynamics a number of times and couldn't recommend them highly enough. Dean and his team are very punctual, professional and fairly priced. They carried out a number of different jobs during the renovation of my Victorian property, and each time it was done quickly and to a high standard, and they understood exactly what I wanted from the outset. 10/10!

Rating: 5 / 5

I can not recommend Cool dynamics enough. We have worked together on a clients large home renovation project in chislehurst. From the initial quote through to every electrician that has been on site - the service has been 100%. They go above and beyond. We will always work with Dean and his team in the future. Thank you.

We are currently refurbing some offices and asked the team at Cool Dynamics to help put in a suspended ceiling and spot lights. The guys sent over a quote and once agreed, arranged to come in within a week. The work was done in 2 stages and all done in less than 1.5 days. We were so impressed with their work we have asked them to get involved with other projects we have and they will be our first point of call for our electrical needs from now on. The guys were polite, well presented and cleaned up after themselves. Very impressed !

I had several old ceiling lights replaced for new ones by Ronnie at Cool Dynamics. He was punctual, made good suggestions (that I hadn't thought of) and was very good at tidying up. Needless to say, everything works fine and the final price was as quoted.

Honest and professional! Thanks to Daryl for his efforts on my boiler. Little touches like taking his shoes off looking to solve issues rather than create them. Rare to find so will always call these guys in the future!

Had a great experience with SMH Plumbing and Heating. Quick to respond, professional, and did a great job fixing my boiler system. Definitely recommend them for anyone in Southampton needing plumbing or heating help.

Rating: 5 / 5

Recommended, a great company. I’m very pleased with the quality and speed of work done at a good price. Steve was very responsive to all communications and accommodating to fit the job in quickly. The guys are very knowledgeable, experienced and take pride in their work. I will definitely be using them again and recommending to friends Work done: A cracked and leaking 50 gallon loft water tank spurred me into replacing the vented hot water and heating system (300 litre tank) and very noisy pump with an unvented/pressurised system. No more irritating pump noise when turning on the hot water. No mess, no stress, the work was carried out efficiently by Daryl and Steve, everything works perfectly with good pressure. An access hole was required to be cut into the hall ceiling for the tank blow off valve drain. Steve had pin point precision in locating the drain to be tapped into. They organised decorators to skim and paint the repair to as good as new. A top job.

Ben is an absolute gem. He went out of his way to help me and did a good job. Professional and competent. Would definitely recommend.

After considerable research and obtaining 3 quotes for my work I chose Kenbrook. I was not disappointed. The work was undertaken by Rob, one of 3 fully qualified and experienced Heating and Plumbing Engineers. Rob did an excellent job and certainly went the 'extra mile' to complete the task, working hard throughout a couple of long days, plus the 2 half days needed to finish the work. The Company have proven themselves to be very professional, knowledgeable and competent, with excellent logistical and business admin support from Michelle, always an important role for any business. Thus this business comes highly recommended.

David has just fitted a new boiler and undertaken some other works to our heating system - a really professional job and brilliant workmanship. He was friendly and helpful, and went out of his way to make sure the system was in perfect working condition. Always on time and everything was left clean and tidy overnight. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kenbrook again.

Rob has installed a new boiler for us after our twenty year old unit failed. He did warn us some time ago that it was likely to become unreliable due to its age but we persevered until it died! Rob worked very hard throughout the two day job, flushing our radiators etc, making some improvements and we now have a great heating system that is reliable and very effective. He worked really hard, completed on time and left not a gram of mess anywhere. We thoroughly recommend Kenbrook and have been very pleased with them all. Diana

Steve has just completed a new Wet Room for us. The work was all carried out with quality materials, skilled craftsmanship and to our exact requirements. Steve is a perfectionist and continually ensures that the client is happy at every stage of the process. All finished within agreed timescale, site cleared and cleaned and for a fair price. We are delighted with the result and happy to recommend the company who we have used for 20 + years

Fantastic meal at Shashi's this evening for the Curry Night special. A warm welcome and a cosy atmosphere, plus the food was hearty, delicious and fresh. We couldn't resist grabbing some cookie pies for dessert on the way out too.

Brilliant cafe, very friendly staff and wonderful food. Great curry, salads, ice cream, cakes, and sausage rolls. My husband loved the chip Friday.

Rating: 5 / 5

Glad to be called a regular ! As a gluten free human, Shashi's has this covered, and I love the sausage,brie and cranberry panini's. I work from home, so, having somewhere clean,comfortable and friendly to go, is a real treat. Good place and good people.

Rating: 5 / 5

Wonderful cafe with scrumptious cakes and other tempting dishes & excellent friendly service. The delicious coffee is also locally roasted. Looking forward to going back again soon, possibly for one of their curry or other themed evenings. Well done Shashi's kitchen! X

I needed an emergency electrician last night in Gosport and Stuart came right away when I called from the next town over. My normal electrician wouldn't even come out and said he was booked until December. Stuart was the only electrician I could even get to come out after 6:30 pm without an issues. He did what he could that night but it wasn't an easy fix and needed hours of work. He let us borrow an extension lead we plugged in upstairs and ran into kitchen so we could plug in our fridges and freezer. He came back next morning and got the problem resolved. He was very polite and nice. He also informed me of improper work the electrician previously had done. He disnt even charge us for the night he showed up to see what was going on! Will definitely use again! Thanks Stuart for all your help and work!

Came out at unsociable hours to help us fix or electricity problem after calling multiple “supposedly” 24hr services they were the only one to answer our call. So friendly and helped us to understand the problem. Had it fixed within the our. Highly recommend!

Stewart came to install replacement oven, lighting & a couple of dimmer switches. First had to correct & rewire the illegal wiring that he found from the kitchen unit fitter from a couple of years ago when my house was managed by a local lettings agent. Installed approx 10m new wiring from kitchen down into cellar to it's own new breaker on the board. Tricky installation, nothing too much trouble. Lighting & switches quick & simple by comparison. I had nothing to clean up myself after he was finished. Everything he did was done to the highest standards, neat & clean. He really cares about what he does and at the quoted very fair price, despite the obstacles he encountered. I cannot recommended him highly enough - I would have given him 10⭐ if I could - actually I can, here!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10+⭐ Rated!!

We called in Chislett Electricals on the recommendation of a friend. Stewart re-sited the socket for the dishwasher which was illegally positioned by a previous electrician( hence it shorting) He explained everything needed and despite the job not being as straight forward as it could have been we were pleasantly surprised at the final bill. All work was carried out to a very high standard and the property left clean and tidy after completion. Nothing too much trouble. We would highly recommend this company.
