Heathrow>west London, taxi. Any recommendations?

In 2 weeks we're permanently relocating to London after just over 10 years away - woohoo!
Our household goods are being shipped, but on the day [as usual on a relocation] we'll be taking small valuables with us on the flight. Usually between HRW and west London I'd take a train, and walk the last 1/2-mile home from the station. But after my last trip 3 weeks ago when I witnessed a moped-mugger attack, and given we'll be decked with luggage/important stuff/valuables I'm not going to take risks. 'Besides, after 10 years away we deserve it'.
My comparison is the HRW Express. £22 one way * 2 pax = £44.
From prior experience some years ago I know a black cab is likely around £80 or similar, and there is no need for that.
This company came up on Tripadvisor as well rated: https://www.british-airport-transfers.co.uk
From HRW-T2. Quote @ £44 for 2 people, 2* check-in bags + 2*hand-carry bags. That's all-inclusive [they say], no add-ons.
Met at the arrival hall > front door of my home, for the same PX as the HRW Express; unexpected! Sounds like a no-brainer.
I'd be interested if anyone has views on the above offering. Or alts they consider worth my checking into before I go ahead with booking.
ps. I'll x-post to the London Lover's board in case any of the denizens therein wish to comment.
