Steve M
We've used Hydro twice now. They came to diagnose our ageing boiler, which had packed in during an awful cold spell. It turned out to need replacing, and within a couple of days we had a brand new boiler installed at a very reasonable price. Fantastic service from both Tom and Steve. They really care about their customers and go above and beyond to help. Look no further if you're in County Durham.

I have commissioned Tom at Hydro North East to carry out a number of modifications, installations, and maintenance across several properties. In all cases I was kept informed of progress, issues, and costs. It is very reassuring to have a company that employs traditional tradesman values: turn up promptly, do a good job, and leave the property with no mess. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any job, large or small.

Tom came out on a Saturday as an emergency call out. He attended within half an hour, fixed the issue within the hour leaving minimal mess, and even checked in the next day to see how things were, which was a lovely touch. Charges were really reasonable, so will definitely use again. I very thoroughly recommend.

A few people locally recommended Hydro, so I messaged and Tom was available quickly. He came on time as arranged and fixed the problem with no bother. Really pleased and would use him again. Totally trustworthy. I would not use anyone else now. Thank you.
