You have to hand it to Pimlico

You have to hand it to Pimlico - they are good. Very fast and efficient. Just pretend the bill is happening to someone else! Actually I don’t even know if they cost more - bills for everything seem to be twice what they were 5 minutes ago.

Awful from start to finish

Plumber was over an hour late.
did not bring the right tools.
did not do the job.
had to call an engineer afterwards as recommended by the plumber. the engineer confirmed that the plumber should have easily fixed the issue.
Complained to customer service. They called back, were rude, patronising, and flat our wrong. Said that I would never use Pimlico plumbers again. She did not care.
Do not use this company. Much better ones out there.

Poor communication and short-lived repair

I used this company to repair a damaged balcony door closer. An engineer attended and carried out a temporary repair, and a permanent replacement was recommended separately and quoted as an additional cost.

The repair initially restored basic function but failed after approximately two months, leaving the door difficult to use again.

There is a clear disagreement regarding what was communicated during the visit about the expected durability and limitations of the temporary repair versus what is stated in the written report, which was issued after the work was completed.

I also experienced missed arranged follow-up visits where the engineer did not attend without notice.

When I raised concerns, the company maintained that the repair was temporary and not guaranteed, and that any permanent solution would be chargeable.

Overall, I am disappointed with both the durability of the repair and how the issue was handled afterwards, and I would not recommend this company based on my experience.

Great customer service. Beware the actual service

All customer service representatives were very helpful on the phone when booking and scheduling the appointment. The actual technician that was sent, though, did not fix the problem with our bathroom extractor fan; refused to listen when I tried to explain the issue to him; and simply insisted that everything was fine. He left without doing anything to the device and without addressing my concerns. I feel he was not actually qualified to address HVAC issues (despite my request for such an expert when making the booking).

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

While we are pleased to hear that you found our Customer Service team helpful throughout the booking process, we are concerned by the issues you have raised regarding the service you received from the attending engineer.

The experience you have described is not the standard of service we expect to deliver, particularly in relation to listening to customer concerns and ensuring the appropriate expertise is provided for the reported issue.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to locate your job details based on the username associated with this review. We would very much like the opportunity to investigate your concerns further and understand what happened.

Be fully aware of potential costs of time including parts trips

I have used Pimlico Plumbers twice before and each time was billed for two to three hours and I was very happy with the work. However, this time, I was caught by surprise by a final cost of about £1,500 for what to me looked like a routine job. The work involved replacing a leaking push-fit soil stack branch and was discussed in advance as approximately a half-day job. The final invoice was for 8 hours and parts were much more expensive than I was expecting.
I would strongly recommend reading the terms and conditions in the confirmation email carefully before agreeing to work. Also, be aware that all time from arrival to departure is potentially chargeable. In my case that included two 45 minute parts trips and a 30 minutes rain break.
A few things I wish I had been clearer about in advance:
• Time spent sourcing parts is chargeable, including multiple trips if required.
• Administrative time at the end of the job is included in the overall billable duration.
• Records of the position of the van can delineate chargeable time, hence work starts as soon as the van arrives
• Parts may be more expensive than retail prices from suppliers online.

A first class service

Pimlico Plumbers excelled themselves on this last visit. From the initial phone call, where my request was understood immediately, to getting an extremely competent plumber on site within a very short time, I have only praise for every aspect of the service. I highly commend the outstanding individuals I was fortunate enough to deal with.

Unprofessional and poor quality work

Despite a fee being charged to even receive a quote, the roofer arrived without appropriate materials as though he didnt know what to expect. The initial work carried out on the problem area was never going to solve the issue and in addition was botched, unsightly and amateurish.
After my complaint to Pimlico he did return and make improvements using more appropriate materials, but the whole approach to the work was unprofessional.
The cost of the work was very expensive, but I hoped by paying a Pimlico premium I would receive a professional service but can see no benefit in having done so.

An electrical socket had blown on my ground floor. I was worried about my fridge freezer would start thawing as I had no idea how long the electricity had gone. I called Pimlico Plumbers around 18:30 and was promised that an electrician would arrive by 20:00. The engineer arrived at 19:45. Anel who was so friendly and reassuring, instantly set to work. He checked every socket on the ground floor and even the garden. Surprise, surprise. It was the socket in the garden that had blown. He also noted that there were a couple of sockets in my kitchen which would need replacing. I have no hesitation in booking him for the job.
