Trading online as Gas Boilers And Parts www.gasboilersandparts.co.uk
Matt Bourne, Managing Director of UPL Group said “we are pleased to welcome them to the UPL family. Their fresh online approach to heating spares has bought a new vision to the market, they truly embrace the sustainable repair, don’t replace the philosophy.”
Lee Fowkes, Sales Director at Trust A Part Ltd. commented “As a family-owned heating spares specialist we have punched above our weight in the online market. Now with the purchasing power of UPL, and their distribution chain of merchants, we are confident they will continue to grow Gas Boilers And Parts and continue our mission of repairing heating systems wherever economically possible.”
He continues “My brother Mike and I feel a strong affinity to the UPL team. The parallels between both companies are uncanny.
We are both second generation family business with a passion for the construction trade and a strong ethos of customer care. They are worthy custodians of the Gas Boilers And Parts brand.
