Knowledge staff, excellent quality radiators

Such helpful and knowledgable staff. Had a nightmare with another supplier who was much cheaper than these guys. They educated me on what to look out for in a quality radiator - now I realise you get what you pay for. I will be coming back to Cast iron radiators Ireland for the rest of our radiators.

Leaks and terrible customer service

Radiator leaked immediately from part not touched in installation. Terrible customer service. Refused to accept return. Would definitely not use this company! Use Trads instead! I have a much better one from them now.

Thank you for the reply Arroll. To reiterate, as I have explained, the radiator was installed by a professional Plummer, who followed installation guidance. The top cap is leaking and was NOT touched in the installation process. The rubber seal is protruding from the cap and is causing the leak. This made us question if the radiator had been manufactured correctly and pressure tested.

Quality product and service

Purchased a large number of radiators manufactured by Arroll and was delighted with the quality and appearance of the product. The customer service and turnaround time to delivery was impressive too, given the level of customisability of the product.

Dear Mr. Price, thank you for your feedback, and as a conscientious and professional company Arroll fully advocates the review process whether good or bad as it helps improve our service and product. Arroll also believes that all reviews should be justified, and it is important that if a negative review is posted a company should be able to respond by sharing what they perceive the factual points of the case are. After looking at your case Arroll can confirm the following. The radiators were delivered in 2020 and you reported an issue with the retailer you purchased the goods from in 2023. So we can surmise that the radiators worked perfectly for 2 years. The retailer then reported to Arroll as per normal processes as the contract of sale is between the Manufacturer and retailer, then Retailer to end user. Arroll also has legal and contractual obligations with the retailer regarding communications with end users. Arroll requested the goods be returned for internal testing to discover the root cause, as it is unlikely products will fault after a reasonable period, there are always external mitigating circumstances. Arroll would also pay for the transportation. On arrival back to the factory, Arroll conducted a full test of the radiators and established that there was no evidence of inhibitors within the residue water of the radiator or on the internal wet walls, there was also a large deposit of sludge within the radiator. This physical evidence directly indicated that the cause was internal corrosion, which would have been prevented, if on installation the water treatment steps within the British Standard - BS7953 2019 commissioning and maintenance of domestic central heating systems had been carried out. This requirement is also highlighted on the installation sheet provided with each delivery. Arroll agreed to fix the issue free of charge and return the goods back to you. The factual explanation of the cause was not accepted nor was the advice to follow the steps. This was the last we heard of this case. As previously mentioned, Arroll as the manufacturer has contractual obligations between Arroll and its Retail partners (whom the goods where purchased) which restrict communications and as there was no further communication, we had thought the case was resolved. Arroll wishes to apologise that you feel your case was not resolved to your satisfaction, and as a gesture of good will, is still willing to repair and replace FOC any goods that have evidence of corrosion .

Alex was so helpful - great knowledgeable helpful company

I dealt with Alex in the Sales team who was more than helpful with me - it allowed me to identify the correct product for my needs and he even signposted a sale he knew was on and went above and beyond to send me a replacement nut that I had misplaced. Great experience all around and a pleasure to deal with - this all in the run up to Xmas when my heating was playing up.

I used Arroll Edwardian cast iron…

I used Arroll Edwardian cast iron radiators before and the quality was outstanding. For this city refurbishment I decided to mix cast Iron and the new Aluminium Edwardian range . Absolutely fantastic impossible to tell the difference between the cast iron version and Aluminium. Heat amazing . Fitters loved them as they where light and easily fitted .Well done Arroll fantastic product.

Radiators that simply ooze class.

Our 5th radiator from Arroll, it doesn't get better than these Radiators.
Superb finishing, great design, luxurious and most importantly, holds the heat for hours after the heating has been switched off.
Hoping to replace every radiator in the house with an ARROLL.

DO NOT BUY!!

I am reticent to even give one star! I ordered a painted cast iron Ambrose bath and waited 10 weeks for it to arrive. On unpacking the painted finish was 'bubbling', the finish on the edge of the bath was terrible and the enamel on the inside had a 'tide mark' where you could see the metal through the white of the enamel.
Arroll were and are not interested in accepting any fault and insist that these are normal anomalies with a hand made bath. They have been sent pictures of the faults but show no interest. My only advice can be DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY

Dear Sarah, Arroll wishes to apologise that we have not replied to your review more promptly, as we have only discovered Arroll is on Trustpilot. Arroll has never signed up to this company as we use Google review to collect any feedback. It seems Unless you pay Trustpilot’s extortionate fees they will only show bad reviews and not the many excellent reviews we have on google.
Regarding your complaint. Again, I apologise that you are not satisfied with the product received but Arroll wishes to clarify a few points which you may not have been informed of when you purchased your bath.
1. I note on the purchase order sent in by the retailer you purchased the bath from, the order requested the bath in exterior primer/base coat finish. This is a free service, and the retailer knows that this is not a finished coat and must be sanded and painted over. However, I am aware that some retailers fail to mention this when selling the bath to the end user.
2. Arroll is the manufacturer and not the retailer, Arroll offers two finishing choices for the exterior of their Baths
a) Primer/Base coat – This is a free service, after manufacturing Arroll will flash coat the exterior of the bath in a primer allowing the customer to paint onsite. Some blemishes on the finish may be present but as this is a base coat that must still have a topcoat applied, it must be sanded and prepped for the final topcoat of paint.
b) Painted – Arroll will paint the exterior Bath any colour. This is a charged service
3. If the order had included the painting service, then Arroll would have painted the exterior to a blemish free standard, but the retailer chose Primer/base coat probably to save on costs as I again must iterate Primer is a free service.
Regarding the service level from Arroll
1. As a manufacturer and not a retailer Arroll does not have a sales department but rather an order processing department which is procedurally, and policy driven. The team training is directed in handling business to business not retailer to customer calls. This is particularly important difference. Whereas a retail company is primarily trained in consumer customer service.
2. Customer service levels between manufacturers and businesses is vastly different. As Manufacturers are policy and procedural driven, they will keep within the contracts of sale agreements. This is because manufacturers work on small margins and rely on large quantities.
3. Retailer service levels are consumer friendly, and this is reflected on the margins they achieve.
4. All contact regarding any product should be between the parties involved in the contract of sale and in your instance, this would be you and the retailer. Arroll cannot know what information you were given or as in this instance not given at the point of sale.
Again, Arroll wishes to apologise if you feel you did not receive a satisfactory explanation to your complaint, and I hope the above has given you a better understanding. If you wish more information please don’t hesitate to contact Arroll directly.

Poor Quality Paintworkmanship!

I recently purchased a cast iron radiator from Arroll(27/10/21) hoping it would be a centre piece for my newly renovated bathroom but when it arrived I was badly disappointed with the overall quality of the paintwork, finish and rough edges.I got in touch with Arroll and complained,sent photos and highlighted areas of concern eg. Large radiator plug nuts didn't match,internal grooves badly painted,coloumns had rough edges.Arroll agreed to collect the radiator on 3/11/21 to smooth rough edges and respray and return the radiator in 1 week After nearly 3 weeks (22/11/21) the radiator was finally returned and as I unpacked it I noticed paint on the bottom side of the packaging material was paint,which in my opinion shows that it had been touched in with a spray gun after packaged to be returned to me which I don't find very professional.I finished unpacking the radiator and to my dismay the internal grooves of the coloumns still Had not been painted properly.I rang Arroll again to complain they sent a picture of the radiator via email and asked to highlight the areas of concern which I did,it was plain to see in their own photo that the internal grooves hadn't been fully painted.I sent an email back showing the highlighted areas of concern(24/11/21) and have not heard from the company since and to add to my dismay the paint that is on the radiator has started to bubble!To anyone thinking of purchasing cast iron radiators this is my experience with Arroll.

Dear Mr. Neeson, Arroll has only discovered that we have a profile on Trustpilot and is the reason you have not received a reply through this platform . Since this case was raised I believe The following actions have taken place . The original radiator was ordered in primer to be painted by you onsite . Arroll has now delivered a new radiator and has also painted it in their paint department free of charge . I again apologise that you where not satisfied with the original and understand that you are now completely happy with our service and quality of your radiator .

Damaged items and terrible customer service

Bought 4 radiators and all were damaged. They stated that they expect the radiators to be damaged due to customers bringing them into their property. I advised we categorically had not damaged the radiators. They then said the carrier tries to pack them as best as they can (the radiators had next to no packaging and the legs were exposed with the exception of the delivery bag). They have said we have to contact where we bought them from. They are trying everything in their power to get out of being responsible for their damaged items. DO NOT USE! I will be pursuing this further in small claims court.

An extremely satisfied customer .

After recently puchasing a cast iron bath from this Company ,The young lady I dealt with named Julie Murphy went the extra mile in making sure my order was delivered in line with my time
scale so my contractors could complete the installation as arranged . At all times she contacted me keeping me informed
which made this whole transaction stress free . I have no hesitation in recommending this Company .

Oozing with class

2 pieces of art grace our hall. The Princess range painted in Sienna Gold look stunning.
Between how they look and how they heat the place, simply outstanding.

Arroll Radiators - good customer service

I experienced a problem with one of my Arroll radiators, initially their customer response was slow. I escalated the matter and quickly received an apology for the inconvenience and they bent over backwards to replace the faulty radiator. This was all achieved in winter, during Covid-19.

I was grateful for the quick resolution of my problem and would definitely buy from them again.

Purchased 8 radiators,when they arrived…

Purchased 8 radiators,when they arrived they were damaged.Their excuse was that because they r heavy they get damaged in transit.Would I like some touch up paint.
The damage was due to their carriers and not really their problem.They tried to twist and turn ,resulting in them telling me to contact my supplier,not the carrier ,return them and if they passed inspection they would refund my £2k +.
Not nice people to do business with stay clear of them

Faulty valves, non-existent customer service

Installed two radiators and both of the valves developed faults shortly after. Been trying to contact customer services for about 4 months but as soon as they reslised it was related to a complaint they’ve ignored my emails and calls. Avoid.
