After 8 years, it’s time to say goodbye to Rick Slattery Plumbing & Heating…
It feels a little strange writing that after 8 years of building a business around Rick’s name, but we’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come – and even more excited about where we’re heading next.
This isn’t a change of ownership or a completely new business. It’s still us, still the same team and still the same commitment to providing a service our customers can genuinely rely on.
We just felt it was time our name and branding caught up with the business we’ve become.
Exciting times ahead
A lot has changed since Rick first started the business 8 years ago.
What began as Rick out on the tools has gradually grown into something much bigger, and over the past couple of years in particular, we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to keep improving.
We’ve invested in better systems, better communication and modern technology to make things easier for our customers from that first enquiry right through to completing the job.
We’ve also continued to expand what we can offer, introducing new services including air conditioning, renewables and leak detection, alongside the plumbing, heating and boiler services that have always been at the heart of the business.
One of our proudest additions has been our service plans. The response to these has been brilliant, and we love being able to offer our regular and loyal customers that extra bit of reassurance and ongoing support.
But we’re not finished yet - far from it!
The team behind HomeFlow
Rick has been working incredibly hard both on and off the tools, and he’s just as committed as ever to pushing the business forward.
So, for anyone wondering – despite the change of name, Rick isn’t going anywhere!
He is still very much at the forefront of HomeFlow Solutions and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. As the business grows, one of the things that matters most to us is making sure the standard of service people have come to expect from Rick is carried through the whole team.
Over the past couple of months, many of you have also been getting to know our newest engineer, Rolf. He’s already been bringing in some fantastic reviews of his own, with customers mentioning both his friendliness and the quality of his work – which is exactly what we want HomeFlow to represent.
And, as some of our customers may remember, we welcomed a little boy into the family back in April, so Chloe is still in the midst of maternity leave and juggling life behind the scenes!
It’s been quite a year for change and in more ways than one.
A few important contact updates
For the time being, our phone number remains exactly the same:
📞 07597 690 322
You can continue to call, text or WhatsApp us as normal.
We do, however, have a shiny new email address:
📧 [email protected]
You’ll start seeing this on booking confirmations, quotes, invoices and other correspondence from us. Don’t worry if you accidentally use our old email address for now – we’ll continue monitoring it while everyone gets used to the change.
And… our new website is LIVE!
We’ve worked really hard to get the website right.
We wanted something that didn't just look good, but actually reflected the business we’ve worked so hard to build and showed why we aim to offer something a little different from your average Joe Bloggs plumber.
We’re sure, just like us, you see plenty of trades businesses appearing across social media, and sometimes it can be difficult to know who you’re actually putting your trust in.
For us, transparency is really important. We want our customers to know who they’re dealing with, what services we offer and what they can expect when they choose HomeFlow. We’ll always aim to be as clear and upfront as possible – even when it comes to pricing.
Our new website is just one of the ways we can do that. It gives you a proper look at HomeFlow Solutions, the people behind it and exactly what we offer. The team you see is the team you get – no subcontractors here!
And we absolutely love how it’s turned out.

Have a look around and let us know what you think in the comments – we’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts.
So, what’s next?
Hopefully, plenty.
We really can’t thank our customers enough for the support you’ve shown us over the last eight years.
The fact that more than 270+ of you have taken the time to leave us a 5-star review is something we’re incredibly proud of. Behind every one of those reviews is a customer who chose to trust our business, and we never want to take that for granted.
HomeFlow Solutions is our way of building on everything we’ve created so far rather than leaving it behind.
Over the next few years, we want to continue expanding the services we offer, reach more customers across the North West and work towards becoming the Fylde Coast’s go-to name for plumbing and heating.
But growth will never be an excuse for standards to slip.
As the team grows, we’ll remain committed to making sure the friendly, reliable and professional service our customers have come to know from Rick runs through the entire HomeFlow team. We wouldn't expect anything less.
You’ll also be seeing plenty more from us across our social channels over the coming months. We want to give you a better look behind the scenes at the work we do, the team, the services we offer and hopefully a few exciting developments along the way.
For now, though, we just want to say thank you.
Thank you to everyone who has booked us, recommended us, shared our posts, left a review, joined one of our service plans or simply supported a local business over the last eight years.
