About Us
Established in April 2010 Murfins Plumbing & Heating company is a midlands based central heating and plumbing service dedicated to providing low cost solutions and expert advice within the plumbing & heating sector.
As a fully qualified and gas safe registered central heating engineer Aiden Murfin has a wealth of experience. Having served his apprenticeship with British Gas, installing, maintaining and repairing any gas appliance is like second nature.
In January 2016 Murfins Plumbing and Heating embarked on an expansion programme. A second engineer was taken on, Mark joined the team from MBS. As a city and guilds time served engineer Marks wealth of experience – both domestic and commercial complimented Aiden’s knowledge base perfectly. Mark stayed with us for a little over a year but has now left the industry to peruse a career at Rolls Royce.
We now operate from a small office in Allestree, whilst having the Mickleover showroom was a lovely office environment the ultimate decision to close it was based on the large overhead of running such an operation. Our office is not permanently manned so isn’t designed for customers to visit. When we’re not in there it means we’re out concentrating on what we do best, plumbing and Heating! The phone operates on a divert system so you can call whichever number you want!
Over the past 20 months the team has continued to grow with new members joining as the workload increases, our current team consists of
