The engineer who came on 8th April broke a part. He did not notice. The tap leaked causing extensive damage. The second engineer who came on 27th April replaced the part photographed the damage and said he would report it. We have not heard anything since.

Service engineer that wants to give great service as opposed to a quick getaway.

Upfront communication and excellent, diligent service engineer. Michael ensured the job was done correctly as opposed to done quickly.
Even replaced the shelf on completion

The machine was replaced

The machine was replaced, and the old, damaged unit was left for collection the following day. Unfortunately, the collection was delayed by nearly two weeks. While the first engineer refused to take the machine before I could even speak with him, a second, more helpful engineer arrived the following day and successfully removed it.

Great company and services

The company communicated that my boiler was due its service. Booking a service was straight forward and I was kept up to date re the visit.
On the day of the service the engineer made contact with me with his arrival time.
The service itself was very thorough.
During the invoicing process I mistakenly over paid. I contacted the company and was repaid within weeks.

I'm very glad to hear that the service booking was communicated effectively and the job itself was thorough and to the standard we expect. And also that our accounts team resoled the issue with the overpayment efficiently.

As always, we will aim to keep up this level of service, and hope that we can continue to serve you to the best of our ability!
