A NORTH Lancashire heating installer is up for a national award.

Nick Irlam, of Nick Irlam Ltd, based in Bolton-le-Sands, has been announced as the North West’s Best Heating Installer 2017 and will now go head-to-head with nine other regional winners to be crowned UK champion.

The Heating Installer Awards aims to recognise the essential work completed every day by UK installers.

Nick’s stand-out entry impressed the judges with his demonstration of exceptional professionalism, glowing testimonials and numerous examples of going over and above for the customer.

Nick said: "With so much competition in the industry, it’s difficult to communicate exactly what you do so I wanted to put my all into my entry to the competition, so the judges knew everything about me. It’s paid off. I hope the local community can get behind me and vote for me to be the UK’s Best Heating Installer."

Those wanting to help Nick and his company win the overall title of UK’s Best Heating Installer 2017, should visit www.heatinginstallerawards.co.uk to vote before the deadline on April 30.
