Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 1,177 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Loyal customers frequently praise the friendly engineers for arriving right on time, working quietly, and thoroughly explaining every single step of the home installation process. Local people genuinely appreciate the extremely helpful office team and efficient scheduling procedures that make booking essential heating and air conditioning services completely stress-free. Some reviewers were not happy with unexpectedly high quotes and expensive pricing structures provided for certain specialized projects. A few consumers also mentioned frustratingly slow response times and specific mechanical problems that unfortunately remained completely unresolved even after multiple follow-up visits.

Excellent Service Every Time

Over the last week, we've had Custom Heat visit our home three times for a boiler service, a complete boiler replacement, and a call-out for a burst pipe that was unrelated to the boiler.

Every visit was managed efficiently, and all of the engineers who came to our home were excellent. They took the time to explain everything clearly, offered helpful advice on what we should do going forward, and were always friendly, professional, and polite.

They were also incredibly patient with our very curious and nosey 3-year-old, which certainly didn't go unnoticed!

We're so glad we discovered Custom Heat last year when they helped us with another plumbing issue. Since then, they've consistently provided outstanding service, and we won't hesitate to use them again for all our future plumbing and gas work.

Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It's brilliant to hear that all three visits over the past week were handled smoothly, and the mention of the engineers' patience with your curious little one genuinely made us smile. We're really glad you found us and look forward to being your go-to for all things heating and plumbing for years to come.

The John Lewis of plumbing

A highly professional company, no wonder Worcester Bosch uses them. The plumber sent out to take out my old boiler and install a new one was excellent - arriving on time, working calmly and quietly through the day and completing the job as requested. Recommended.

Excellent Customer Service

We had a boiler service as a part of our Care Plan. The engineer attended at the allotted time and was friendly and professional. Unfortunately, the hot water didn't come on the next day, but it was a sticking valve and no fault attached to what was done in the service. We had a telephone call back the same day and an engineer came out and fixed the issue the next day, but said that the valve could stick again and so Custom Heat would replace the valve as a part of the Care Plan at no additional cost.
We are delighted with the organisation which does exactly what it says it will do on the tin!
Superb customer service.

Really pleased to hear the air conditioning unit is performing so well after its service — a thorough clean really does make a noticeable difference. It's great to know the team kept everything neat and tidy throughout the job too, as we always aim to leave a space exactly as we found it.
