N M Stevenage

Not only did they find the problem within 10 minutes they contacted me to say that they had sourced the part needed from the company and found out my shower was still under warranty. They gave me all details to contact this company. What a reliable, trustworthy service.

J R, Ground-force SOS Limited

A quick inspection, a couple of twists and some fresh new installation to an external pipe, they reassured me that the boiler was actually safe to use. I am immensely pleased with the outcome.

M of SK Fitt, Photography

The guys who came to the house were hard-working, clearly took a great pride in their work and were honest and a pleasure to have around. This has also been true of all the contact I have had with the ladies and Jon on the office. I would highly recommend.

J. Robinson

Extremely efficient, professional and courteous.The work was completed on the same day as I had reported there was a problem.

I spoke to my tenant at the property today who was very complimentary about your service in general and about your gas engineer in particular. She reported that he was very thorough with the check, very polite and put on shoe coverings before entering the property.

The staff that we dealt with were professional, efficient, and outlined the costs involved clearly. On day one the boiler was removed and system flushed and on day two the new boiler was fitted and worked completely. All in all a great service from start to finish.

B, London Colney

Booked via John Lewis home solutions for a boiler service. They were fantastic, excellent service, showed up when promised and were just great. Ironically we had a leak the next day and we used Baker Smith as they had been fantastic the previous day, a repeat sterling performance. Highly recommend.

B. Kaye, St Albans

At very short notice, Mark & his team delivered an extremely friendly & efficient service. I will certainly use them again & would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

S. Hobbs

The toilet had been destroyed at our local scout hut at 9 o’clock at night. As that scout hut was needed by a toddler playgroup from 9 o’clock the following morning, you very kindly re-jigged your running order to be on site to repair things in time.

R. Oldfield

Thank you very much for the service – the plumber was very thorough and really looked for the cause of the problem.

E. Clark

The Baker Smith plumber initially did a temporary repair (after my Emergency Cover provider plumber had failed). Baker Smith then went out of their way to source the necessary part & did the final repair very promptly-all a reasonable price. This firm is trustworthy, professional & reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

S. Mason

The job was completed to a high standard and within good time, both the tenant and us were kept up to date with what was going on:time and dates that the job would be completed. We are thoroughly happy with the job and will continue to use Baker Smith.

C. Hornsey, St Albans

I can honestly say that in all instances when they have done work they have been a pleasure to deal with. From the start the professionalism and service ethic of the company was evident. Every contact has been pleasant and efficient, nothing has seemed to be a problem.

J. Robinson

I would like to say that Sebastian was excellent.

G. Daniels

I have been using Baker Smith for over 10 years both in connection with the lettings department I run but also personally at my own home. They are by far the most professional firm of plumbers and heating engineers I have ever known!

R. Wolff

From the excellent customer liaison, to the promptness with which we secured an appointment, to the professionalism of Tom who not only did the job but happily sorted out another plumbing problem I had forgotten to mention. I was impressed by the way every step in the process was handled.

T. Greenfield

Many thanks for the prompt service, Tomasz was very good and got on with it without fuss. Great service.

E. Franklin, St Albans

I would like to thank Baker Smith Limited on the installation of two radiators. Thomas work was excellent and I am very happy to have been recommended to Baker Smith Ltd. I will certainly be using your company for any heating or plumbing problems from now on.

Marie Burke

The plumber from Baker Smith arrived on time, was polite and professional. The work was completed quickly and he cleared up the mess. He left all the spare parts together & explained I should keep them in case there was a problem in future. I was very happy.

Z. Dunn, St Albans

I have used this company for the past 15 years I will continue to use them as they are very reliable and they always comeback if there’s a problem which usually there isn’t.

K. Wellesley

Great service as usual from the team at Baker Smith to replace our shower, cistern and some general plumbing work. Have never been disappointed over the last 15 years. John, Mark and colleagues have always provided good, practical advice as well as having a team who do excellent work.

Mark G, St Albans

Thanks Mark, You are the man and thanks for the new sink. No Sooner said, than done: so acts the man of worth. I have to say such friction-less invisibility to a client is something I have come to deeply respect and aim to emulate.
