“Robert came round quite late to quote for the job-seemed like a nice guy-and we arranged a price and date for the work. About a week later,the agreed day/time,no sign of Robert,I waited in all day,called many times,always went to voicemail,left various messages.No reply,no apologies,no contact..and have heard nothing from him since.Very rude,totally unprofessional and,needless to say,NOT recommended!”

Boiler Installation - Gas Work job in Smithfield

“Very unreliable, Robert didn't turn up the 1st time to give a quote as agreed, without letting us know. Turned up the 2nd time for the quote and we agreed a price and then didn't turn up (twice) to run though the details of the work and the start date. Avoid if you want someone reliable.”

“Robert is a proficient multi-tasker: I had a series of nightmare experiences; Robert came and fixed it all, from tiling to plumbing (he put in a new boiler in quite difficult circumstances), to painting & decorating, & pretty much anything that he saw that needed fixing without having to be asked! Also, he was exceptionally reliable, friendly, punctual, reasonably priced, cleaned up after himself, and a pleasure to have around; I would recommend him wholeheartedly.”

“Robert is a charming man who replaced my hot water cylinder efficiently and at a very reasonable price.When he finished he advised me to look out for leaks which he said sometimes happen. A few days later I notced a small leak but a phone call to Robert had him back first thing the following morning to fix it. I can wholeheartedly recommend him to any prospective customers.”

“Robert and his team did a fantastic job renovating our house - which involved building work, plumbing, electrics, central heating, plastering etc etc. I have no hesitation in recommending him and his team and we will definitely be using him again for any future work we need doing. It is great to find someone we trust, and who actually completes the job in time and on budget. The only negative point I have is he can sometimes be hard to get hold of, other than that it would be a 5/5! ”

Answers:

All depends where shower pump is fitted. it should be on the floor, not high level in airing cupboard where is hot already. check manual as well, what's the maximum running time. maybe is oversized. 1.5-2 bars is usually big enough for one shower.
That's normal in households with high mains water pressure. you have to fit stopcock on cold feed to the combi boiler and use it to reduce water flow through the boiler. if boiler is 24 or 28kw there's no chance it will heat fully open bath tap to 55c.
There's few filling valves working like that. they have few extra seconds wait, until toilet cistern gets empty and siphon shuts properly down. perfectly fine.
Everything is possible, just will that look ok? quicker job but space wasted on both sides of the wall.
You will have find space for rather large expansion vessel, which will accumulate water in high pressure times. it can be fitted in the loft...
