District Plumbing & Heating

A few days ago Colin Gill looked after cleaning and servicing my Viesseman boiler, and left it running much better than it had performed in years. I had hired another company to clean it annually, which is necessary to keep this boiler working well, but the company was sold and the new owner did not spend the time to do the job well. The next company I called did not do the cleaning and recommended replacing a major part, but they never returned to complete the work. I called the Viesseman office in Vancouver for advice and they recommended three companies. I decided to contact Colin, and he and his apprentice turned up as promised and did a great job. And guess what, the part did not need to be replaced. It turns out that if it had in fact failed, the boiler would not have worked at all. I will be calling on him again for future plumbing projects.

Colin Gill came and fixed the really poor job done by another plumber while I was installing a suite in my house. He was able to redesign the configuration of the pipes to make a much better design for the bathroom, and adjust some fittings I had for a custom concrete based sink. He even found where the carpenters had cut into the drainpipe behind my new kitchen cabinets. He is a young guy that comes from a tradition of plumbing, but has tons of experience and energy. He doesn't just glue pipes together. He actually knows what he is doing, turns up on time, provides you with suggestions, and is polite and efficient. A breath of fresh air.
