What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Berkshire Heat Ltd has built a strong reputation in Tilehurst and the wider Reading area for heating and plumbing work, with reviewers consistently highlighting the speed of its response and the professionalism of its engineers. A number of customers describe calling in the morning and securing a same-day visit, with one account of a leak being attended to within hours of the initial contact.

Punctuality is a recurring theme, and the diagnosis and repair of faults, including leaks and boiler problems, are frequently described as thorough and completed in a single visit. Communication before and after the work is repeatedly praised, with clear explanations of the issues found and the remedies carried out. Named staff, particularly Leon and Danny Smith, are singled out for their helpfulness and the care they show, including one customer who recalls an engineer returning to complete a repair while they were in hospital.

Tidiness and meticulous workmanship come up often, as does the friendly manner of the team. The emergency plumbing support receives particular mention, with customers noting that problems affecting ceilings and other urgent faults were resolved efficiently and without fuss. Reviewers repeatedly point to the company's readiness to attend at short notice as a key strength, and the blend of technical expertise with genuine consideration for customers remains the detail that recurs most often.

Forced to use these guys by our Managing Agents, Chancellors. Hands down THE WORST service I've ever received from a trades company. They book you in and don't show up on the day. Think of any excuse under the sun, and that's what they'll give you. They've pulled a no-show on us over 5 times now. Wouldn't recommend.

I was in Reading for several days for office work. During that time, I faced plumbing issues a couple of times, and each time, Berkshire Heat solved the problem efficiently. They always provided on-time service. In short, they’re one of the best plumbing companies in the area. Highly recommended.

Excellent Service! I called in the morning and was able to get a same-day appointment. The plumber arrived promptly, quickly diagnosed the issue, and completed the repair along with a full service—all in one visit. Communication was clear throughout, and the service was both friendly and highly professional. I’ll definitely use them again for any future boiler problems or maintenance. A highly recommended plumber in Reading!

These guys are so meticulous and friendly . They do a fantastic job . I got stung from an emergency plumber who did nothing and charged me £264 for it . I wish I knew Berkshire Heat worked on Sundays.

Leon's kindness I will never forget. My heating had been broken for almost two weeks, and I was about to go in for surgery and start chemo. Leon was trying to fix it for me but he needed to come back the next day when I was going in to hospital. He asked if he could come back, to fix while I was gone as he didn't want me to come home from hospital and be cold. From the first time he called you can tell how professional, and lovely he is as he has one of those voices.. but then it's everything else too. Of course fixing the heating and hot water was his job, but he went above and beyond anyone else would. His customer service is 10/10, but last of all his empathy and understanding, made my whole world at that very hard time. There aren't many people like him anymore!! Thank you so much to Leon, and Berkshire heat for going above and beyond.
