Completed the installation of a new Grant Oil Boiler. This involved moving the boiler location and a complicated flue set-up. All OFTEC approved and with the extra Grant Warranty as they are Grant Approved. Patient and competent - just what you need when making such a big investment. Highly recommended.

Johnny at Ribble Valley Plumbing and Heating came out to have a look at my water pressure issue. He was the 3rd or 4th plumber to come out, and the only one who actually measured water flow and pressure. He then went away and researched the best possible course of action. He decided on an inline pump and explained the whole scenario in detail. We agreed, he came a day or 2 later, and now I have a power shower that works better than I could have hoped.. I genuinely can't thank him enough, recommend him enough, and for anyone who worries about engaging with trades that make you question if you need something, you have no fear here. He even called me and talked me through checking my taps were not blocked before I spent anything... genuine top guy!

All I can say it RVPH were so knowledgeable. Within two minutes of Jonny arriving, to fix a leak that I thought was behind my kitchen units and flooding my kitchen he diagnosed the problem which thankfully was within a wall above the units. All fixed and back the next day to plaster. A brilliant job at a good price, really happy

Johnny came and did a great job, he fitted the gas stove, then checked everything was safe, checking that the boiler was working correctly, will definitely be contacting him again, when l need another job doing.

Very happy with all the work recently carried out by Jonathan, also with the ease of payment. I would definitely recommend Ribble Valley Plumbing & Heating. Margaret

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.
