Recently replaced my shower with very reasonable costs and timescales - an easy company to work with.

Excellent service start to finish. Fast and efficient estimation and a very reasonable quote. Great communication throughout. The tradesman were efficient and friendly and very aware of Covid19 social distancing. Had hot water supplied to our business premises with no complications. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic service from everyone at Alexander Thomson Plumbing & Heating. Our shower unit stopped working in the morning in one of the guest rooms. We called Alexander Thomson spoke to Angela who as always is very helpful, within half an hour I received an email to say that they had the required replacement shower and arranged to have the unit fitted that afternoon. Very clean and tidy. Fantastic

The guy was in our house for 45 minutes doing some electrical work which was done to a very good standard which we were very pleased with. When we got the invoice for payment we were charged for 1.5hrs because apparently you get charged for their travelling time to and from your premises, which was never mentioned when we booked it over the telephone. I have never, ever heard of this being done before!!! So you get charged travelling time to your house, then from your house to their next job. This means that the next person getting something done is being charged for travel time to their home/premises, so in essence that part of it they are charging twice. We were only 4 minutes over the hour because of this but were charged for the half hour. I complained about it and the invoice was changed but not without a lengthy discussion. They need to be more transparent and let customers know exactly what they will be charged for, sorry but I won't use again. Hence why only two stars, no reflection on the work that was done, that was excellent.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know you’re properly qualified and certified to install heat pumps?
We are MCS‑certified and registered with an approved consumer protection/competent person scheme, which is essential for quality assurance and to access grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS).
Can you tell me if a heat pump is actually suitable for my home?
We carry out a detailed home assessment, including property type, insulation levels, existing heating system and available outdoor space, to confirm whether a heat pump is a good fit.
What type and size of heat pump will you recommend for my property, and why?
We design the system using a heat‑loss calculation for your home, then match the correct kW size and model (for example, air‑source vs ground‑source) so it runs efficiently and reliably.
What will the full installation cost be, and what’s included in your quote?
Our fixed quote clearly lists the heat pump, cylinder, controls, labour, scaffolding (if needed), electrical work and any radiator or pipework upgrades, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Can you help me access government grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
Yes, as an MCS installer we can confirm your eligibility, apply for the BUS grant (worth up to £7,500) on your behalf and deduct it directly from your quote.
How much disruption should I expect during installation, and how long does it take?
A typical air‑source heat pump installation takes around 2–5 days, and we’ll agree locations for the indoor and outdoor units, manage any planning considerations and keep you informed each day.
Will I need to replace my radiators or upgrade anything else in my home?
After the heat‑loss survey, we’ll advise if any radiators, pipework, electrics or hot‑water cylinder need upgrading so the system can run efficiently at lower flow temperatures.
How noisy is the outdoor unit and where will it be installed?
Modern heat pumps are designed to be quiet and must meet UK noise regulations; we’ll position the unit to minimise any impact on you and your neighbours and comply with local planning rules.
What warranties, servicing and aftercare do you provide?
You’ll get manufacturer warranties on the heat pump plus our workmanship guarantee, and we offer ongoing servicing and support to keep your system performing at its best.
What running costs and savings can I realistically expect compared to my current boiler?
We’ll estimate your likely annual running costs and potential savings based on your current fuel type, insulation level and tariffs, using real‑world performance data rather than lab figures.
