We have used Aspire to install custom built units in a tricky kitchen area, and also to supply a new boiler and underfloor heating. They are very well organised, turn up when they say they will, are pleasant and cheerful, and always work to find solutions to the many challenges an old house presents. Their customer service is second to none, and you are always left feeling you really do matter to them. We have commissioned them to replace our old bathroom, and I have every confidence the work will be done to a high standard. Would definitely recommend.

Aspire installed our oven. They were fast, efficient and friendly. They had quoted to remove our old oven, but instead told us how to arrange more cheaply ourselves. Very happy with them. Would definitely use again.

Fixed a nightmare of an airlock issue that was stopping our hot water taps, that 2 other plumbing services had gave up on. Engineer was great and super persistent, will be using them for any other issues we have from now on.

They installed a new combi boiler for us in 2019 and have serviced it since. I am really pleased by Aspire and their helpful engineers: when we had a problem on the snowiest, coldest morning of the year they were out within half an hour . I've recommended them to other people in Edinburgh. Great advert for using local businesses.

Ricky and his team did a great job of renovating our 1880s Edinburgh tenement under difficult circumstances. With great project management, Aspire regularly went above and beyond our expectations, and have created a clear and modern living space for us. The underfloor heating and electric water heater cylinder supplied have made a huge difference to our lives. Aspire managed to keep close to the initially quoted budget, despite unforeseen issues arising through the project. Recommended.
