What our customers say …

• I would like to thank your team for their assistance at the Birmingham Bio Power Plant in Tyseley during our planned Outage this October. As ever, the team have worked hard to complete all work within the given Outage period and all work has been to a high standard with no Health and Safety issues. Since the plant was commissioned in July 2016, James Scott and his team have responded quickly to any breakdowns and have always gone above and beyond to help the site team get the plant back on line in a timely manner. We look forward to working with Thomson in the future and continuing to build on an already proven working relationship.…

• You will be aware that today is the last day of the last of our five boilers consecutive major overhauls, which began on 6th January. I am delighted to say that each boilers overhaul ran consistently smoothly and all being completed on or before the programmed date. It is a credit to all the contractors, but particularly Thomson Limited, the major contractor, that through the endeavours of the supervisors and management this was achieved. Thomson Limited personnel worked in the region of 45,000 hours throughout this period without having sustained any injury through accidents while at work. All the Thomson team; Boiler Tube work, Platework, Cleaning, Scaffolding and Insulation performed admirably. The Tube Work team carried out in the region of 2,000 tube butt welds which were subjected to a 5% Radiographic inspection that resulted in barely a handful of weld repairs having been found necessary, a very commendable result. Please pass on my thanks for a job well done to all of your people.…
