Very disappointed - no show

Very disappointed with my recent experience. Booked a boiler service and nobody turned up. Had a text that morning to say that someone would be in touch to confirm appointment time but had no further contact and nobody turned up. I had booked a morning appointment and after nobody arrived, cancelled my afternoon plans to await late arrival. I sent an email asking for an explanation and that has also been ignored. Really hacked off with the lack of communication and poor service. Will not attempt to use again and shall spend my money elsewhere with someone more reliable.

Poor service provided by Absolute…

Poor service provided by Absolute Heating who was sent out by Axa/Privilege. Took ages to get a part which is an off the shelf part,a motorised valve. This didn't fix the issue as the valve body was faulty, the engineer came and said he swapped the part and the issue was still present and said it would be my own thermostat wiring. I went to have a look after the engineer left and noticed the valves had not been replaced and I could still see the old valve which had paint on them. They then lied to my insurance company and said they swapped the part, my insurance company then closed the claim. I'm still without hot water. I would avoid this company and I was promised calls to keep me updated which didn't happen.

This company doesn't deserve any star

This company doesn't deserve any star. After this company over charged to do a shoddy job on a boiler. Within 5 years I had to replace 2 boilers. The subcontractor jobs and do not care if the job is being done properly. I just had a new boiler installed because this absolute heating did a very bad job over the past years.

Absolute were assigned via our Domestic and General insurance for the boiler. There was a comms issue where D&G's system didn't alert Absolute to our repair booking but when I called them to query their arrival time, they couldn't have been more helpful to ensure (despite D&G's system error) that we had our hot water restored promptly. Their representative Sam came out early afternoon that day. What a polite and professional chap he was and within half an hour, the part that had failed was replaced and he navigated the NEST technology to get the hot water back on again quickly. Couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thank you and special thanks to Sam :)

Used absolute heating via an insurance claim with Admiral. Made a swift visit to the property and quickly diagnosed the issue with our boiler. A new part was ordered and the office called to arrange a return visit. Sam was extremely personable and knowledgable. The work was done quickly and boiler up and running again with safety tests complete.

Excellent service from Absolute Heating…

After contacting Domestic and General through my Scottish Power policy for boiler breakdown/repair an engineer from Absolute Heating was booked for the next day. Excellent service, fully informed of time of engineer’s arrival and reminded by text on the morning of the appointment. The engineer was professional, knowledgeable, polite, friendly and kind and repaired the fault immediately. Highly recommended - first class service.

Complete boiler fail on Sunday

Complete boiler fail on Sunday. Phoned and came first thing Monday morning. Ordered the part and fitted Tuesday afternoon. Sam the fitter was brilliant on every level. He put it down as emergency as I was just out from hospital after kidney surgery. Needing heat and hot water for safety and sterile reasons and he made sure everything was asap and working. Highly recommended. Thanks SAM.

Thanks to Sam for fixing our central heating

Just had a visit from Sam to fix our heating. He was polite, well-presented, and had a sense of humour. He identified the problem quickly and as luck would have it, had a replacement part on his van so we had an immediate fix. He asked if we had had the boiler serviced recently, which we had, otherwise he would have done that while he was here. Not being the easiest of things to configure, he also offered to set the timing on the RF Thermostat Stat for us. Top marks from us!

Can't fault them

Just had Sam attend on an insurance call out. He called beforehand and arrived when he said he would, was polite and professional, diagnosed the issue quickly and talked me through it which I appreciated. Replaced the defective part and we are all back up and running. Would recommend.

Extremely Professional Work

Taylor visited us to check my boiler out as I was told by my service engineer it was not worth repairing I called my Home Services and they promptly sent Taylor who came and checked my boiler inside out and repaired the pressure level and assured me that I don't need to change my boiler. He repaired whatever need to be done and I can assure that it has left me feeling so satisfied and feel we need trust worthy Services like this.Brilliant work Taylor and I am going to change my service engineer for sure.

Sam came to service my boiler through Homeserve and he knew about the boiler etc which isnt always the case. I have now cancelled Homeserve and will use your company for plumbing issues also. Very pleased to have found you.
