When we needed a new boiler, TM Hughes supplied and fitted it promptly and efficiently. The heating/hot water system was checked thoroughly after installation, including existing radiators, and the kitchen cleared and tidied afterwards. I have used this company for a number of years for boiler and hot water cylinder checks and maintenance, and can recommend them to others.

TM Hughes has serviced and worked on correcting my boiler installation (from a different and poor company) for 5 years. They have always been very professional and, importantly, turned up on time. The work is reasonably priced, and I have never had an issue with what they have done for me.

During a recent boiler fault, which was hard to diagnose, Terry, the owner, became involved and was absolutely great in helping me to resolve this with Glowworm under warranty. Very friendly, approachable, knowledgeable, and gives honest advice that a customer can trust.

I highly recommend TM Hughes and will use them for years to come and do recommend them to my friends, family, and anyone reading this review!

Can't speak highly enough of Terry & his staff. Terry gave a very competitive quote for the work needed & fully informed me of what was involved. He was more than happy to answer any questions i had regarding the job, which was very helpful. Alex installed my new boiler, i was impressed with his time keeping & he worked non stop all day long. He also cleaned up as he went along. The quality of his work is excellent i am very impressed, its great to have peace of mind that you have a plumbing company like this that you can call on if & when needed.

Jeff Collins

15:33 09 Oct 25

Absolutely first class service, although he was very busy he still found a bit of time to take a look and see why we had no heating or hot water. I thought that this level of customer service died out a long time ago but totally impressed by the "above and beyond" dedication that was shown to try and help us. I cannot recommend them high enough, if there was a facility to give a 'perfect 10' then Terry would easily get it. As they say, Forget the rest, just call the best

Sanand Jemma

10:01 09 Oct 25

Terry and Alex were amazing at helping us with our boiler. Making an effort to fit us in at short notice and working on a Saturday to install a new one so that we weren’t long without hot water / heating. Terry is also very communicative and willing to help over the phone and unsociable hours! I would recommend.

Paul Franklin

20:03 08 Oct 25

Terry and his crew are knowledgable and efficient. They are friendly, helpful and reasonably priced. I have used Terry for many years and always been very pleased with the work he has done. I have tried many plumbers in the past but TM Hughes had always been the best.

Booked T. M. Hughes for our annual boiler service. Terry arrived in the time we were told he’d be at our address. Service was completed well and advice given on status and age of boiler, any issues that we could expect in years to come.
We have used T. M. Hughes for a number of years now and are very happy with the service we receive.
We will continue to use them and can thoroughly recommend to anyone needing gas and/or plumbing services.

John Smith

16:07 06 Oct 25

Terry from TM Hughes was an absolute super star when originally dealing with my 90 yr old Mum and since then with myself, in dealing with a thermostat issue with her under floor heating.

Colin Dunn

Types of Air Conditioning Systems We Install, Service & Repair

Several types of air conditioning systems are available, each with unique features and applications. We install, Service, & Repair them all.

The three most common types are split, central, and multi-split systems.

Split System

Split systems consist of an indoor and an outdoor unit connected by refrigerant piping. These systems are ideal for cooling single rooms or small spaces, offering a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution for temperature control.

Multi-Split System

Multi-split systems involve multiple indoor units connected to a single outdoor unit. This configuration enables independent temperature control in various rooms of the property.

Central System

Central systems, also known as ducted systems, use a network of ducts to circulate cooled air throughout an entire building. This type of system is suitable for properties with more significant cooling requirements, such as those that require consistent temperature control and a more uniform distribution of cooled air.

Installation Services

TM Hughes & Son offers a seamless and efficient installation process, starting with a complimentary survey and no-obligation quote, followed by a rigorous installation procedure.

Free Survey & No-Obligation Quote

Before installation begins, we conduct a complimentary survey to assess your property’s cooling needs.

This survey involves an engineer visiting your property, inspecting your spaces, and determining the most suitable Air Conditioning system based on the size and layout of your home/business, as well as your specific requirements.

Following the survey, you’ll receive a written quote.

Installation Procedure

Once the appropriate air conditioning system has been identified, the necessary materials have been obtained, and a date has been agreed upon, the installation procedure can commence.

Installations are meticulously planned to cause minimal disruption to your home life/workday.

You’ll be provided an estimated timeline for completing the work during the survey. Our engineers continuously work in a tidy and efficient manner.

The procedure varies depending on the type of system being installed.

Split System Installation

For split systems, engineers will select the optimal locations for both the indoor and outdoor units, ensuring minimal noise and maximum efficiency. The indoor and outdoor units are then securely installed, and the refrigerant piping is connected.

Multi-Split System Installation

When installing a multi-split system, engineers will determine the best configuration and positioning of the indoor units to maximise comfort and energy efficiency. Additionally, each indoor unit will be positioned to provide optimal temperature control in its designated room.

Central System Installation

Central system installations involve designing and installing a custom ductwork system that suits the property’s layout and cooling requirements.

This process ensures even temperature distribution and efficient cooling throughout the building.

Setting & Testing

Once the Air Conditioning installation is completed, the system is set and thoroughly tested to ensure it works properly and runs efficiently.

Our engineer will provide a demonstration, so you know how to use your Air Conditioning system and get the most out of it.

Service and Maintenance

Service and maintenance are vital for keeping your Air Conditioning system functioning optimally and preventing costly breakdowns.

Our engineers provide routine Servicing for all air conditioning units, ensuring they run efficiently and safely.

It’s recommended you have your Air Conditioning serviced annually.

Service Procedure

The service procedure includes inspecting and cleaning the system, replacing the filter, and conducting a performance assessment to identify potential issues that may require attention.

Inspection and Cleaning

Our engineer will inspect the air conditioning system for any visible signs of wear, damage, or malfunction. They will also clean the various components, including the indoor and outdoor units, to remove dust, debris, and any other obstructions that may hinder performance.

Filter Replacement

Replacing the air filter is an essential part of air conditioning maintenance. A clean filter enhances airflow, improves energy efficiency, and enhances indoor air quality.

Our engineer will replace the filter with a new one or clean reusable filters to maintain the system’s efficiency.

Performance Assessment

After completing the inspection, cleaning, and filter replacement, our engineer will assess the system’s performance to ensure it’s running optimally. The engineer will check for issues, such as refrigerant leaks, abnormal noises, or temperature inconsistencies, and recommend any necessary repairs or adjustments.

Repairs

Air conditioning units can sometimes develop issues or breakdowns, requiring prompt repairs to prevent further damage and restore the system to full working order.

TM Hughes & Son offers repair services for all systems, addressing common problems such as refrigerant leaks, compressor issues, and thermostat malfunctions.

Refrigerant Leaks

Refrigerant leaks result in reduced cooling efficiency and increased energy consumption. We will locate and repair the leak, then recharge the system with the appropriate amount of refrigerant.

Compressor Issues

The compressor is a vital component of the air conditioning system, responsible for circulating refrigerant. If the compressor fails or malfunctions, the system will not cool effectively. An engineer will diagnose, repair, or replace the compressor as needed.

Faulty Capacitors

Capacitors regulate the flow of electrical current to the air conditioning system’s motors. If a capacitor fails, the system may not start or run at reduced performance.

Malfunctioning Thermostats

A malfunctioning thermostat can result in temperature inconsistencies, and faulty thermostats are located and replaced.

Clogged Drain Lines

Clogged drain lines can cause water to back up and damage the air conditioning system. Regular servicing will help prevent this issue, but if a blockage occurs, an engineer will clear the obstruction and ensure proper drainage.
