ABOUT US
BRC Heating & Plumbing was started in 2001 by Ben Rogers. Ben initially ran the company as a sole trader, but over the years the business has gradually expanded, thanks largely to word of mouth. In 2009 Ben took on his first apprentice, and in 2013 BRC became a limited company.
Today we are a team of 12, with seven experienced and qualified engineers, two apprentices, and three office-based staff. We have a small fleet of vans that you’ll see out and about in the local area, providing a wide range of heating and plumbing services to our customers.
We all take pride in our work, and every member of the team is continually undertaking training and professional development to make sure that we have the most up-to-date skills to go alongside our many years of experience.
At BRC the whole team is committed to providing our customers with a high-quality service – we may be a small local company, but we aim to compete with the best on professionalism and reliability.
