James and his brother were great! They were really friendly and fixed our broken boiler really quickly during a very cold period and for a reasonable price. It's so nice to know a reliable plumber for any future work. Highly recommended!

James and his brother came to fix two of our radiators, one of which was quite simple. The other one was more problematic but they fixed it even though it took them much longer than they had anticipated. They still only charged us the initial agreed quote. They stayed and finished the job that day and were both very friendly and got on with everyone in the family. James suggested there are other things we can do to make our house more energy efficient and we will definitely be hiring him again to sort out these other issues. It's a pleasure to find a trademan who is so enthusiastic about his work.

What I liked about James was that he was an honest guy. This is hugely comforting and a quality to be commended. My job was actually much simpler than I had thought and James quoted me for a call out charge and said that he would try and fix the problem there so as to avoid any further costs with having to return to property on second visit with parts. He did however, prepare me ahead of time with estimate of what it would cost if my boiler needed a replacement part but we never got to this stage. I would recommend James, you will have peace of mind that he'll act in your best interest.

James was great - He did an installation of a new combi boiler. I chose him mainly because his quote was very competitive as well as reading all of his positive feedback from other clients. He and his brother arrived on time and did a really professional job, even clearing a load of rubbish out from the back of my utility room. They explained everything to me clearly, the final bill was exactly as quoted and overall I was very happy with the job they did. Will certainly use them again.

James attended and was extremely helpful. He resolved the immediate issue of the radiator without the need for a powerflush. He has also made extremely helpful suggestions to limit the cost of a temporary repair in the bathroom so that it can be addressed more fully at a later date. I will certainly use him in the future.

A very professional, reliable and honest man. Gave a very reasonable quote and there were no hidden extras in the end. Very upfront and flexible from the beginning to the end.

Our tenants also gave very good feedback and are very pleased with their new boiler. Would highly recommend. Thank you James.

When it comes to the task James is thorough, diligent and professional. He’s also very personable and easy to get along with when it comes to arranging work to be done and even going the extra yard when he’s come onsite and you ask him to look at something else. My wife has had bad experiences previously with cowboys ripping her off, but James has even rehabilitated her trust in the profession. Excellent workman I can fully recommend.

I had a blocked kitchen sink with standing water since yesterday. Was finding it difficult to manage with kids. I called up James and he came around, even though it was quite late. He was extremely courteous and sorted out the problem. I also asked him to check some radiators which were not working - he checked them out and did not even charge anything extra. Extremely impressed with James and service provided. Would not hesitate to use him again and definitely recommend him. Thank you James! :-)

I had a problem with getting consistent hot water in my upstairs shower. I had 3 other plumbers and gas service professionals come check it and was told by all that the boiler was fine, it was either my shower or that I was crazy. James was the first to say he knew exactly what was up (it was the boiler as i had suspected) and within a week had sourced the part and fixed the problem. Nice chap too.

Boiler problem/landlords certificate (Central Heating)

Recently bought a new house and wanted a new combi boiler installed. I got 8 quotes. My situation was that the old combi boiler was upstairs in the back bedroom and does not have a condense pipe. I know for new boilers the condense pipe needs to go into a waste drain. I wanted to keep the condense pipe inside the house. James suggested to connect the condense pipe to the bathroom waste pipe. Since my bathroom is downstairs, this means the pipe would be lowered from the new boiler, chased into the wall, and then connected to the bath waste pipe. James got his friend Kevin to chase the wall and take the bath panel off. When Kevin finished it was finished perfectly. James younger brother, Will also helped out and was courteous and helpful. I chose a Vaillant Ecotec 831. As James is a Vaillant installer you get 5 yrs cover instead of 3yrs. As well as installing the boiler, James also completed a few other jobs around the house which were not an issue and not charged for. What I like about James is it that he will do the job until it is completely done and go beyond the call of duty. I have worked with a few tradesman before but I haven’t met someone like James. There are good tradesmen around, but James is on another level. James is like a 5 Star Hotel, you get the proper Royal treatment. The good thing is you do not pay the 5 Star price, the prices are very reasonable and if there are any issues they will get fixed, no doubt! So would I recommend him, DEFINITELY!

Moved in to a new home and hired James to fix the usual problems around the house (central heating/hot water). He was here the next day, explained everything in lamens terms and got it fixed super fast. James did such a great job that we've already booked him to plumb our fridge in!
A genuinely honest, knowledgable and competitively priced plumber - you'd be silly to hire anyone else.

James was one of seven quotes I obtained & he impressed me the most. It just wasent his vast knowledge, PR skills, his enthusiasm but his down to earth nature. Even when I asked him to fit a new shower, he gave me advice then fit it for next to nothing. When I asked him to replace a radiator, he just didn't replace it, but repositioned it so it looked better, again the price was so reasonable. James was assisted by his younger apprentice brother, who was very polite and professional. Would I recommend James, 100%, I have already handed out 6 business cards.

Very good service. I am always a bit sceptical of these websites (being an avid watcher of Channel 5's Cowboy Builders) but James was extremely efficient and found and fixed the problem in no time.

We chose James Gas to quote for the job because their previous feedback was undeniably fantastic and the feedback included not just tiny little jobs to get their rating up, but many new combi boiler installations and more involved jobs too. They are also Valliant (and lots of other brands) approved which means you get the full guarantee on a boiler (ours was the ecotec 831 - 5 year guarantee). Most of my quotes from the site came in at similar prices but some of the tradesmen seemed to be suggesting options which seemed like shortcuts to me, usually trying to avoid digging a soakaway into the concrete ground outside! When James came to quote he was really personable and had a really good attitude to everything and clearly has a genuine passion for his work. So we gave James the job and we are so glad that we did. He is highly skilled, professional and a neat and tidy worker, he turned up on time, did everything, including the pipe work really neatly and had a 'nothing is too much trouble' attitude and clearly just wanted us to be pleased with the job. He had his brother William help with digging the soakaway up outside and they were both really hard workers, very personable, polite and cleaned up after themselves. I wouldn't hesitate to hire James again and would recommend him to any of my friends or family. It can be quite stressful looking around for tradesmen that you can trust and James is definitely one of the good ones. Thanks for doing a great job guys!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 5* BOILER "MATERIAL" INSTALLER
James Eastman is a professional boiler installer/remover with good demeanour and high attention to detail. Strangely enough, he loves brickwork more than gas boilers.He is an Advanced Approved Installer of Vaillant boilers (I did all the checks necessary being a qualified accountant naturally) to give me full 5 year warranty instead of 2 from Vaillant (very important).
Boiler and heating knowledge: Knows Vaillant boiler well. Recommended me the pro 28 as it's only a 2 bedroom house with 1 shower and has the same parts as ecotec 831, but I insisted on 831 coz of the looks and the geeky stuff I wanted. He tries to save you as much money as possible but it's your call.
Quality of work: Excellent workmanship especially the brickwork. All the pipings are properly laid out and his team removed all existing pipes and tank.
Cleanliness: He took all the trash out so couldnt complain on that one. He even cleaned the rat droppings all over my kitchen tops!
Punctuality: His sidekick will be the first at the scene - 7am. James normally follows up with other jobs in the morning before committing fully to the current job.
Conclusion: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

The work involved taking out an old gas boiler and replacing it with a new combi boiler which also led to the feeder and hot water tanks removing. The central heating was plumbed in and flushed, with new thermostatic valves fitted to the radiators. They also ensured that the shower and other plumbing was working fully before they left.
James gave us a competitive quote and understood exactly what we wanted doing.
He and Jack did the job quickly and efficiently with minimal mess and disruption, were friendly and got on with the job.Highly recommended, professional work.

I am very happy that I chose James Gas Services. James was polite, organised, timely, efficient and did a fantastic job on my aging back boiler. He diagnosed and fixed not only the original fault, but another issue left by a previous engineer, as well as making sure that all parts of the central heating system were fully functional. All on his own initiative and for no additional charge. The price was very reasonable for what turned out to be a 2 hour job, and I cannot fault either his professionalism or his workmanship. I have no issues with using him again in future or recommending him to others.

James did the job quickly and efficiently and at a good price. He clearly explained the features of our boiler so we knew what all the dials etc meant, as well as fixing the problem and checking that all the radiators were working effectively. He suggested other work we might want to consider with some rough prices, but didn't give us the hard-sell. He also threw in a gas safety certificate. Would definitely recommend and use again.

James and his brother came along, found the problem which initially had been caused by the Diverter Valve in the boiler. However the problem had since escalated whereby the boiler also now had a leak which had now leaked onto a micro switch and caused the micro switch to not work. In addition whilst in the flat there was small problem of the toilet not filling up properly. This needed a cheap part and to be replaced. All in all James made two visits to the property and did what was required efficiently and with the minimum of fuss. He also included in the full price a Gas Safety Cert. I found James to be Honest, very efficient and very Conscientious - I will definitely use James Eastman again.

James fitted a new boiler and we were really happy with the job he did. He came round to quote straight away and turned up on time on the agreed day. He took care to replace the cabinet covering the boiler without damaging it and carefully removed some tiles around the piping so that they could be reused. He also managed to fit the external flue outlet without needing to cut down a wisteria plant surrounding it. Overall, we were impressed by the care he took and his thorough approach (and thanks for fixing a radiator that was leaking following a faulty reattachment by a previous workman!). At the end of the day James took plenty of time to go through all the controls etc. The cost was as he had quoted with no hidden extras. Even out nervous cat seemed to like him and ventured into the house which he normally doesn't do when strangersd are there! Highly recommended.

Many thanks James- great service and installation
James installed a new boiler and made all connections onto my existing hot water cylinder and heating systems. This involved removal of our old boiler and fitting new gas & water pipes to a new condensing boiler located on the opposite side of the kitchen. The neatness of the pipework was really amazing- as an architect i have high expectations but i rarely see someone take as much care in setting out and installing their work (it seems a shame that it will be hidden in cupboards and ceiling voids!).
James and his mate were punctual and respectful to my house & posessions at all times. After a brief discussion in the morning to agree a plan of action i was happy to leave James to carry out the work unattended. Whenever neccessary James would discuss alternatives ensuring i was fully informed throughout the installation. James takes real pride in his work- some of the existing pipework (to which new connections were required) were such a tangle that James replaced these as part of the work- all to ensure the finished job reached his exacting level of workmanship.
I would have no hesitation to recommending James to friends, colleagues and users of mybuilder. James is knowledgable, friendly and punctual- he even arranged collection of the scrap metal.

Hired James to replace and relocate a new combi boiler into the loft, removal of hot/cold tanks, removal of gas fire, fitting of TRVs onto radiators and fitting of new thermostatic shower.
James and his team carried out the work satisfactorily and particularly neat work undertaken on the pipework and boiler in the loft. Because we moved to a mains fed system, there was an overlow issue on both of our toilet cisterns which James and his team resolved with new internal mechanisms.
There was an issue with regard to the TRVs not being the ones we requested at the beginning of the job and James came back subsequently to replace them. At the same time, James also corrected a leak of the thermostatic shower.
Overall, we are happy with the work carried out by James and his team and would recommend him to others.

Recently experience suggested JGS's profile had been too modest. James was reliable, courteous, descent, genuine, honest, competent, knowledgeable and a professional. I have had problem with the hot water, the temperature fluctuates. James arrived and went straight to work. He turned on the hot water tap in the basin and hot water it came. The temperature remained unchanged after few minutes. Had it been other engineers whom I’ve had experienced of, they would asked to be paid and called it a day. James applied various methodologies testing different taps across the house after nearly ½ hour the problem had unmask itself. James diagnosed the problem, explained it to me (patiently) and provided me with solutions (apprx £600 to repair), not to his advantage might I add. He asked if my boiler was covered under warranty and I said yes. I was invited to contact the supplier so an engineer may be sent to repair the fault. He didn’t have to say anything other than ‘to fix the problem it will cost you xyz, would you like me to fix it now’?
Having dealt with cowboys in the past, James had been a pleasure to do business with. I would highly recommend him. I would add other service provider’s price may be more competitive but James and JGS is worth every penny take my word [or the other 104 customers]!
PS – I was charged £40 instead of the agreed £50…

Frankly I would have suspected a cowboy con job if he hadn't had so many positive comments here and if he didn't immediately try to come up with less expensive repair ideas. He devoted some energy to the attempted repairs, including a return trip for which I wasn't charged, before giving up. I accepted the need for a replacement, his price seemed fair, and so he and his crew arrived on the assigned date and time and installed the new boiler expertly, efficiently and politely. It is in the nature of this job that I probably won't need to use him again, but I would happily recommend him.

James came round to check what we needed done. We thought we needed the system flushing as we couldn't get any heat. However, James had a look and advised us we didnt need this and he fixed it there and then. We now have baking hot radiators and we do not need an extra one! He did not charge us a penny!!! He advised us we could do with a thermostst and a cleaner thing fitted on the system, which we will do soon, and will def be asking Jame!
And I will def be recommending him to others...thank you!
Although he didnt charge i had to put £50 in otherwise i couldnt leave feedback!!!! - amandajw_uk - 6th Sep, 2010Positive

If you read through the feedback you'll notice a theme, hard working, conscientious and friendly. And that's exactly what you get.
He finished the job a day early, and even sorted out a leak from the washing machine. And a dangerous semi bare live wire,left by a previous cowboy, for no extra charge.
I would recommend james to anyone.If carlsberg made heating engineers,they'd probably be James Eastman.

I cannot recommend James highly enough, my mother was very wary about getting Central Heating however James was wonderful and explained everything carefully to her and reassured her now after a week she is still singing his praises as well as Jack and Tom. After having to get by last winter with a coal fire, she is so pleased to have heat when she wakes up. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will certainly call him for any jobs he may be able to do for us.

James is definitely a victim of his own success in the sense it was tough to find a date he was free to come round! He came on time and let me know the day before when he would arrive. He was able to identify the problem really quickly (Turns out it was a mixer valve in the shower) and offered to come back and fit the part once I manage to find a place that stocks it.
Will use James again without a doubt. Highly recommended.

Hot Water Issue - Possibly Pipework (Plumbing)
-
-
-
The job involved removing a combi boiler from a bedroom upstairs, making good the wall, and installing a new boiler and necessary pipework in a cupboard downstairs. Some re-routing of gas supply pipes was required. TRVs were fitted to all rads, and a Magnaclean filter installed. An electric thermostat was fitted. The flue was routed up and out through an existing flat roof and the condense into an existing drain.
James and his colleague, Tom, came highly recommended and having used them myself, I now know why. They carried out the work to a high standard, left everything clean and tidy and were very polite and friendly. James was very happy to suggest solutions to any problems and also happy to answer any stupid questions I had! He's an entirely trustworthy chap, clearly enjoys his work, and I'd have no hesitation in using him again.
His quote probably won't be the cheapest you receive, but you can employ him with absolute confidence. Given his standard of work and your peace of mind, he'll be value for money.

Following a succession of encounters with ‘dodgy geezers’ last year through MyBuilder and personal recommendation (resulting in lots of half-finished jobs and us working the ‘fifteen layers of jumpers’ look most of last winter), we were slightly wary of getting someone in to look at our heating but James and Tom have totally restored our faith in tradesmen.
It took a while to get some time in their diary (which we took as a good sign), and it was worth the wait. The quote was competitive and - once we'd agreed a date to do the work - James let us know the day before by text when they’d be arriving.
They turned up on time, did an excellent job (without demanding an endless supply of drinks/snacks/fag breaks or a radio blaring) were incredibly polite, finished early and charged us what they’d quoted.
We’d definitely use them again if we need any further heating/plumbing services and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else looking for a heating engineer.

An absolutely outstanding chap! The job was done quickly and professionally, with evidently high standards. Very conscientious, friendly, tidy and hard-working. He also went on to do a full bathroom fit that we hadn't originally discussed and was incredibly flexible, making himself available to fit things in at very short notice. His business partner, who did a lot of the fitting work with him, was equally professional, friendly and tidy, etc. They and another builder we had on site lifted a cast iron bath upstairs too, with no fuss! Both of them are a credit to their profession and an absolute pleasure to work with. I recommend James without any hesitation.

After going through Christmas with no heat or hot water James took on my job. He came to check boiler, explained what needed doing and gave me resonable price.
The job was booked for the 1st & 2nd of April, James later realised the 2nd was a Good Friday so rather than let me down he brought two more plumbers and do the job in just one day with time to spare. Later when i could not program the thermostate (made by Mensa) James came back and replaced it with a simpler one.James is the kind of plumber you want straight talikng ,polite reliable professional and tidies up after himself.
Quite simply i would use him again if required but will recommend him to others i know and you.

Description of Work:
Fitted new ‘A-rated’ Valiant combi-boiler.
Chemical and cold flushed radiators to clear gunk out of the pipes and radiators.
Fitted quality Valiant room thermostat and timer.
Fitted magnetic cleaner that picks-up any rust in the system (can save you getting a chemical flush in the future). You can do this yourself, it’s very easy.
Installed new flue.he also, suggested I apply for ‘Boiler Scrappage Scheme’ from the Energy Saving Trust which saved me £400, which was very appreciated indeed!
He obviously took pride and pleasure in what he was doing and is working hard to build up his business.

Firstly, I hired James primarily because he showed deep knowledge when he appraised the work and above all, politeness towards the customer. Quality of work was excellent. Despite the job becoming awkward and complicated due to pump failure, James was able to liaise with Salamander engineers in a very professional manner which earned their respect. They commented on the neatness of his piping work as top quality. The job took longer than expected which cost James other jobs on the day. He didn't change the quoted amount and remained a true gentleman/ professional to the end. I will be asking him to do a few more jobs for me in the near future. Good trademen are hard to find; decent ones are even harder. I recommend James unreservedly.

I would recommend James because he did a thorough job and explained to me exactly what he was doing and why he was doing it. Before he left, he made sure I understood what to expect once I began using the appliance. His rate was also reasonable. I trust his work and have asked him to come back for another job.

I can't recommend James enough. He was friendly and explained all the options available to us, and kept us up to date with his progress.
Being a designer, I am over fussy with detail - James pipework was very neat and tidy and he left no mess. I will be getting James back to service our boiler. A++

After 3 Gas Safe registered fitters failed to fit my gas hob, James was able to identify the problem, come with the parts and install my new hob in an hour. He even went the extra mile by cutting the worktop so the hob fit perfectly. Very refreshing to see someone taking pride in their work. James was on time, tidy and explained everything he was doing. He even took away the old hob, rubbish and cleaned after himself. James was also reasonably priced compared to other builders and we will definitely be using him again when we have our bathroom fitted and for any other work we need doing. A BIG thank you James!

James did an excellent job installing a new boiler, removing a water tank, repairing a faulty shower, toilet and tap. He was fast, efficient and quick to solve various problems and he made sure I was happy before he left. Great value for money, I have no hesitation in recommending him.

James was very good, very polite - absolutely brilliant. I couldn't fault him at all. He installed a new combination boiler for me and I would absolutely use him again. I've already recommended him to other people as well.

James fitted a new combi boiler, replaced the drainage pipe work and did all the necessary electrics for me. He was excellent, he did a very good job. I was keen to get the work done as soon as possible as I had been let down by someone else and he booked me in very quickly. I was extremely impressed, his price for the work was brilliant and I have no worries in recommending him - and have done.
