A heat pump and aircon installation in a house, with lots of existing stuff to work around, existing underfloor with all the unknowns. It’s not been without its challenges, discovering what is and isn’t up to scratch in our home already…. But the key things in any relationship with an installer - great communications, clean, tidy and prompt engineers and a positive, helpful spirit. I recommend Dore Woodman to you.
I used Dore Woodman (DW) for a residential solar PV, battery and EV charger installation. I got quotes from a few businesses, DW weren't the cheapest (partly down to the set up they recommended) but I definitely made the right choice with DW. They were exceptional from start to finish, I cannot fault them. The quality of their work is outstanding, the installation team stayed late on a couple of occasions to ensure the work was completed efficiently, but beyond their professionalism they are simply super-decent human beings and it was a pleasure to meet them. I only wish every company treated their customers the way DW do.
Brilliant company very helpful always a pleasure to work with from the go geo team
Doré Woodman recently installed solar panels and batteries at my home. At all times they were punctual, polite and professional. The site survey was very thorough and it is clear that they are knowledgeable and experienced. They patiently answered all my questions and responded promptly whenever I called or messaged. The work was carried out on schedule and after installing the inverter and batteries in my garage they left it cleaner and tidier than when they started. Thanks guys! The job was not signed off as complete until they were entirely happy that everything was as it should be, and I am very pleased with how it is all working. Another reviewer described her experience with Doré Woodman as “faultless” and I can only echo that. I am happy to thoroughly and wholeheartedly recommend them.
We asked Dore Woodman to replace a gas boiler with an ASHP in our new build house. They are a plumbing company which actually understands heat pumps: most don't. Whether ground- or air-sourced, a heat pump requires a very level of knowledge and experience to be installed correectly and operating efficiently. The horror stories which we read in the press are usually due to poor installation. Jason, Josh, Alison and the DW team know how to do the job properly and have been prepared to spend time to ensure the best possible economy. There are a couple of small issues to resolve, but I'm confident DW will do this. I am very happy to recommend Dore Woodman: professional, courteous, tidy, efficient & on-time.
All the staff are a delight to deal with, prompt efficient and friendly. They were clearly on top of the technical requirements for specifying and installing the system and showed great flexibility in accommodating timetable and other changes. First class
Our Journey with Dorewoodman from start to finish has been faultless. Jason / Ben / Alison and his WHOLE team made the whole installation fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. Customer experience pre delivery and after was amazing. All the team when on site were all knowledgeable, investigated thoroughly and left completing all tasks required. No mess, always attentive to detail and professional. We now have a amazing house with constant hot water, a warm house and no gas bill. They further assisted with all RHI queries and completed documentation to allow me to claim the Gov incentives. Just like to say a massive thank you to the whole team and will be highly recommending to our friends and family. Mulberry House
Hesitant start but everything progressed well afterwards. The quality of the installation was excellent.
We used Doré Woodman for the new installation of our heating and hot water system during complete house renovations and extension. Right from first contact they were reassuringly informative and professional including offering all information regarding government incentive schemes. Jason and his team made the whole installation including UFH seem effortless and simple. They were polite and professional and nothing was too much of a problem. Thank you to Jason, Alison, Josh and the rest of the team, you’ve been amazing and we are truly thrilled with our new system. I know I can turn to you in the future when we have further questions and help.
From initial consultation to design and implementation I have been hugely impressed by Dore Woodman. Great clear communication, good advice, great clean, tidy, efficient and polite workmen. Nothing is too much hassle, and the post implementation support is top notch. I highly recommend them.
Dore Woodman have just carried out the first service on our heat pump which was supplied and serviced by another company. They also moved the buffer tank at the same time. Both operatives were friendly and left the house tidy. I fully intend using them for future servicing.
Dore Woodman did a fantastic job installing our air source heat pump. Very knowledgeable and honest in talking through our options, and the installers were friendly and courteous. Thoroughly recommended!
They were really helpful with the initial process of applying for RHI and green home grant. The engineers were friendly and polite and did a great job on the install. Since then there have been a couple of issues come up with the equipment, but they've been very quick to respond and get them sorted.
From the moment I first contacted Dore Woodman to the moment we had hot water and central heating (first time in six years!) we have felt reassured, guided and informed. The technical team were polite, professional, unobtrusive and tidy. The office staff are efficient and effortlessly kind. Having surveyed the general tendency towards money-making in this industry, it's nice to not feel like a revenue stream but a person. Thanks Ben and team for your care and service.
Dore Woodman were extremely honest with the potential of the Heat Pump and what the costs were likely to be. The installation was done promptly and to the highest levels of professionalism - my existing system was discovered to be not up to the demands of the new equipment when the floorboards came up and DW upgraded this for me FoC. No mess was left and the system was installed and running within the week. We now have oodles of hot water, a warm house and no gas bill. The running costs have been much lower than we expected and DW completed all of MCS and RHI paper to enable me to claim the incentives. 6 months later they came back to fine tune the system before the coldest months.
Doré Woodman were involved in all the plumbing and heating for our house renovation As with any large project our house renovation was a complete renewing of all the plumbing , underfloor heating and general heating for the existing property and the new extension I cannot recommend this company highly enough to anyone out there as the technicians who were working alongside us were completely supportive and so knowledgeable. Their experience and great customer service smoothed out any wrinkles ! Well done Doré Woodman 👍
We used Dore Woodman in our drive for more sustainable heating in our property and throughout the process they were exceptional. The team are evidently best-in-class with their knowledge of the technology and the environmental savings that can be made - not to mention the money savings as well by switching from old traditional-source heating systems. I can wholeheartedly recommend the team - we dealt with Jason, Jordan and Josh and each were an absolute pleasure to have in our home. We couldn’t be happier with the end result!
Dore Woodman were the last of a long line of installers we approached to quote us on replacing an oil boiler with an air source heat pump. Instead of trying to sell us what they wanted to shift, they listened more than they spoke, correctly identified our needs and then, when we accepted their quote, delivered to an excellent standard. Subsequently following various forums, we have become aware just how many heat pump horror stories are being told, and just how many of the potential pitfalls Dore Woodman avoided simply by designing, planning and installing in a professional manner. Heat pumps can be an excellent investment, but picking the right partner is key and we were fortunate. As a result, we have now recommended them to others several times.

Jan 31,2025From first encounter, throughout the planning installation and now servicing of our heat pump system the Dore Woodman team have been first class. Our home was not ideal for retrofitting because 2 extensions over time hid some issues and we wanted our solar water system to be integrated with the new heat pump. The wonderful team of experienced professionals nevertheless overcame all obstacles. There is no doubt that heat pumps require a different mindset in order to obtain the best from them and can be a step up in complexity from old gas boilers but the team have been very understanding and supportive. We took out a service contract and the first class friendly engineers have been with us all the way. We can’t recommend them highly enough, old fashioned personal customer service combined with modern technology. Brilliant.
