Nige was my tutor when I was studying Level 3 plumbing and heating, his expertise helped me understand the principles of how central heating wiring works and diagnosing faulty components on various plumbing systems including boilers.
During my time at collage I was nominated to take part in the apprentice of the year competition, Nige made sure I was prepared and ready for the challenges ahead. Now I work as an M&E/plumbing engineer.

Daniel Wright, Ex Student of Nigel Kirby.

I have worked closely with Nigel over the last 3 months. He has impressed me with both his knowledge of the subject and his ability to be able to problem solve situations. He has taken the lead on may areas of improvement and has been an asset to the team. The way he processes his assessments and the way that he teaches within the lessons shows the passion that he has for his job and the leaners, that have the pleasure of being taught by him.

Dean K., Head of Department

Nigel has been working with us here at Oaklands college for the past 3 months. He has been working with the higher levels of the plumbing department, mostly with level 3 full time students and level 2/3 apprentices. Whilst Nigel has been here he has been an asset to the department; helping students with practical and theory assessments and training students to be ready for their assessments. Nigel has also puts lots of work in to improving some of our assessment bays, which has been very helpful. Nigel is a very friendly, approachable lecturer who is well liked by the team and students. I have personally really enjoyed having Nigel as part of the team and hope to continue working with him.

Chris H., Team Leader at Oaklands College

Nigel was a pleasure to work with, extra help was always offered. He took a personal interest in the development of our course and future as well as a work interest. With a lot of knowledge and a good approach to teaching he kept our subjects interesting and easy to digest.

Michael Sherriff, Ex Student of Nigel Kirby.

I used to be a student of Nigel’s whilst sitting my level 3 plumbing and heating NVQ. Nigel made it really easy for me to understand all the different complicated systems and helped me pass all of my exams. He was very down to earth and spoke to me on my level, this made things so much easier when trying to get your head around a tricky task.

Matt Thomas, Ex Student of Nigel Kirby.

From my experience with Nigel he is reliable, honest and very amenable. Nigel confirmed what was required, was not looking to sell any unnecessary extras, and offered a reasonable quote. I have been very satisfied with the work, and know that should I have a problem he will always be available to help.

I have had work completed by Nigel on numerous occassions since 1999. He is always professional, conscientious and reliable.
His work is always of an exceptional standard. I would use him again and highly recommend him to anyone who asks.

John Tierney, Network & Security Analyst

A big thank you for sorting out the water leak in my house a couple of months ago. Your very prompt action solved the problem and what could have been a major problem averted. I shan’t hesitate to recommend you to my family, friends and business contacts.

Paul Booth, Owner, Booth & Co

I have used Nigel several times and can recommend him to you. He always responds quickly to emergencies and he respects your home when he works.
He does not do unnecessary work. An example of this is that my toilet was making a banging in the pipes noise each time it was flushed. Appointments were made with various plumbers who just didn’t turn up . Nigel turned up promptly, diagnosed it as a simple washer rather than replacementpart as others had suggested and fixed it . Thanks Nigel

Kevin Radford, Director at RMK Insurance Consultants Limited

I was happy to leave Nigel in my house to design and install my entire heating system. He provided excellent advice making sure that we understood all of the benefits and potential risks of the work, and it was completed in a very timely and professional manner.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Nigel to anyone who required his services. On each occasion I have used him he has done an excellent job.
