A J Barnes Plumbing & Heating Ltd holds a 4.9 rating from 517 reviews. Reviewers praise efficient, reasonably priced boiler installations, servicing and bathroom fitting, with staff such as Joe and Patrick named for helpful, no-pressure communication.

Had a call out today, they quickly diagnosed the issue and provided advice on solutions that would properly resolve it long term and not just a quick fix, showing they have true customer care in mind. Overall great and honest customer service with a lot of experience. They also didn't charge for the call out as no work was needed at the time. I will certainly be using them again in future.
From quote to installed new boiler was 2 weeks. Reasonably priced and very professional service. Highly recommended
Quick and comprehensive work, had the job done within two days of picking up the phone. Very happy.
Complete new bathroom and downstairs cloakroom fitted . Very efficient and hard working team. Both rooms finished to excellent standard the finish and attention to detail is superb .I would not hesitate to recommend.
This is the second time I have had my boiler serviced by the company. The price was competitive and the work was carried out in an efficient manner. I can highly recommend them.
Fantastic service! Needed a toilet replaced and Andrew was able to get that all organised and booked in no time at all. Will happily be reaching out again for any other plumbing related work.
This is NOT a fake review. Had this company fit a complete bathroom 5 years ago. The finish was far from perfect and after a year the floor started to bow. Over the last year we had noticed a really bad damp smell. We lifted the floor to get it replaced only to find that the toilet had had a small leak since being installed. It has caused a lot of damage to the property. I would not recommend this company. How would anyone know of a leak that is happening under a floor that has obviously been gradual over time hence the toilet not being fitted properly The photos on this review is of the quality workmanship that was provided (i love my sarcasm) Also happy to post the invoice to prove this is a genuine review. Also a new photo has been uploaded to show poor fitting of the floor. This photo was taken approximately 1 year after being fitted and so was out of the guarantee that AJ Barnes provides. If this review is removed it does show that AJ barnes’ reviews are all policed so only good reviews are shown.
