Lothian Domestics Ltd

Engineer arrived within five time scale. Checked over machine and quickly found the issue which he then replaced the affected parts. Throughout the visit the engineer was professional while offering polite conversation. Really pleased with the service provided by Lothian Domestics Ltd.

Ross came within time limit given

Ross came within time limit given. He answered all our questions.
As well as the time set between 8am and 2pm, we received a text when he was on his way and gave approx time of 10 minutes, unfortunately we did not get the text till about 20 minutes after he'd left.

Regarding the text notification, we actually send both an automated call and a text message, using separate systems to maximise the chance of prompt delivery. In this case, your network confirmed receipt of the text within a minute of it being sent, so it appears there may have been a temporary network delay or a loss of signal on your phone at the time. Unfortunately, we have no control over how quickly messages are delivered to you after your network receives them.

Excellent service

Ross arrived on time. He was courteous and identified the issue immediately. He estimated it would take an hour to repair. He carried out the repair and cleaned up after. He is a credit to the company. A very satisfied customer.

Easy to book appointment

Easy to book appointment.
I was regularly updated on engineers timings.
Ross was efficient and kind, he found an object in the w/mashing impeller which he thinks caused the problem of not draining. He tested it x3 and there were no problems. Would recommend 👍

I found it very easy to book an appointment, and I was able to choose which suited me best. Paul, was promt, arriving on time exactly!!.
He was very professional, he knew exactly what was wrong and supplied the part needed at the visit and repaired our oven. He was very polite and I instantly had confidence in him.
Would be very happy to use this service again. Much cheaper than we expected and much, much ,cheaper than a new oven.
Great job all round and a very.happy customer. Thankyou.

People plus technology make the difference

Received regular automated updates on the arrival of the engineer Ross, who arrived precisely as predicted on the app. He came prepared with all the parts and tools essential to complete the job efficiently and professionaly. Above and beyond his call of duty, Ross was happy to provide answers to my multiple queries in regard the physical features of the washer, it's electronics design, and diagnostics. Ross made the event an enjoyable experience rather than an annoying inconvenience. A Big thanks to Ross and the Lothian Team.

PS The only niggle in the near perfect system, occured during the initial reporting stage. After filling in the Samsung Warranty details and reporting the breakdown on Samsung's site, I was redirected to Lothian's website where I was required to complete the exact same information. Otherwise a great experience!

I completely understand the frustration of having to re-enter information after already submitting it to Samsung. While your description was absolutely spot on, most jobs we receive include very limited detail, often just a brief note like “Not working,” “Noise,” or “Not washing.” Because of this, our system is set up to ask everyone for full details about the issue so we can ensure we are properly prepared with the correct triage parts for the visit.

Recommended repair service.

Recommended repair service.

Booked a repair via Samsung Smart Things app.
The app forwarded Lothian Domestic as their certified repair company covering my location, and was directed to their booking form.

The booking procedure was straightforward and easy to navigate and complete.
Updates on my repair booking were texted, including a phone and text alert on the day to inform me of the repairman’s imminent arrival.

My repair thankfully only required a condenser to be unblocked, removing accumulated detritus since purchase, and no replacement parts were needed. 20 minute repair/service and our appliance was fully functional again.

Payment was only for labour, which was taken by card, although the option to pay with cash was also offered.

Thorough satisfied with every aspect of the service.
