They fixed our HIU quickly and professionally

We had a problem with our HIU which the company hired by the landlord that hadn't been solved, in almost two months, by the company hired by the landlord to maintain them. We hired HIU Breakdown and Repairs, which sent an engineer on the same day. The engineer was professional, checked everything, and found the fault. Unfortunately, he could not fix it on the same day, as he needed to order some parts. He came back two days later with the missing parts and finished the job to a high professional standard. He also suggested a temporary fix to have the hot water running while waiting for the repair. Finally, they guarantee the work and the parts for one year. I highly recommend them.

Rude and overcharged

Very rude in office team. Engineer mis assessed the broken parts (which were working fine and we have evidence of it) and they over charged.

Thank you for your feedback.

We take all reviews seriously and always aim to provide a professional, transparent, and high-quality service to every customer. At present, we have over 243 reviews, the vast majority of which highlight excellent service, client satisfaction, polite office staff, and efficient engineers. We are very proud of this consistent feedback and the standards our team maintains.

While every review can have its own context, we are unable to identify a case within our records that reflects the situation described. Our engineers follow a structured diagnostic process and would not knowingly misdiagnose a component or leave a matter unresolved without discussing appropriate next steps with the customer.

As a result, we believe this review may not relate to a genuine service carried out by our company and it will therefore be reported to Trustpilot for further review.

If you have genuinely used our services, we would encourage you to contact us directly with your details so we can investigate the matter properly and work towards a resolution.

Kind regards,
HBR TEAM

Excellent service and scale—highly recommended for block management

We appointed HBR in October 2025 to manage the HIU maintenance and repairs for Riverdale House, a development of 154 flats. Their service over the first four months has been nothing short of excellent.

They successfully completed full annual maintenance across the entire block, providing clear reports for all residents and efficiently carrying out all necessary remedial works.

The clear "winner" for us has been their turnaround time; they frequently resolve issues on the same day, which has been highly praised by our residents for ensuring minimum disruption. As a manager dealing with them daily, I find their engineers and office team professional and incredibly reliable. I would highly recommend them to any building manager or residents' committee.

It has been a pleasure working with you and supporting the residents at Riverdale House. We’re very pleased to hear that the initial months of our appointment have met your expectations and that the annual HIU maintenance programme and reporting have been helpful for both management and residents.

Providing a quick turnaround and minimising disruption for residents is something we place great importance on, so it’s particularly rewarding to hear that this has been recognised. Your kind comments about our engineers and office team being professional and reliable are greatly appreciated, and we will be sure to share this feedback with the whole team.

Thank you again for your recommendation. We look forward to continuing to support you and the residents at Riverdale House.

Very reliable!

I had 2 separate appointments (investigation and repair).
Both engineers were very knowledgeable and kindly answered all the questions I had.
The first engineer was right on time, the second was slightly late but I was made aware of it after having a quick phone call with the company.
I appreciated they made an effort to respect my property and clean as much as possible after the job was done.
Between appointment, I also appreciated the constant communication between appointments to keep me in the loop.
HIU Breakdown Repairs is not the cheapest company but they did a great job!

Highly recommended service for HIU with Central Heating

I have a HIU and two of the radiators were always cold. I have tried bleeding them and rebalance them, to the best of my knowledge. Furthermore, I tried different plumbing companies and engineers, and nobody could fix it. HBR sent a couple of engineers who spent 45 minutes and left all the radiators working. They even followed up to check on the service a couple of hours later.
It feels almost impossible to find this kind of professionalism in London anymore.
