FAQs
Q. I have got a dripping tap and need it fixing, will you charge me even if you can’t resolve it on the first visit?
A. We have carefully selected all the items we carry as van stock to minimise the number of jobs that can’t be fixed there and then. If your issue can’t be resolved immediately and local suppliers don’t have the part needed, then we would diagnose the fault and find the required part numbers to order for a further visit. The initial diagnostic visit would be chargeable and we would send a quote for the repairs. We are more than happy to provide an estimate of costs via photos and we could then order parts to bring to carry out the works.
Q. My boiler is 15 years old and I am looking to replace it for a new one, would you charge me for a quote?
A. No, Andy or James carry out our quoting and they will attend and carry out a no obligation quote for your boiler replacement. This will take into account best working practices, manufacturers requirements and building regulations to ensure your home is compliant. Alternatively, please click the following link which will take you to our online boiler quoting tool and if that looks suitable, we can then arrange a visit to confirm the works and arrange for installation for you.
Q. Why are some of your rates more expensive than some other companies?
A. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work, our friendly team and the ability to be there when you need us. But human time and skillset comes at a cost which we have to pass on. We have a dedicated team in the office to manage quoting, bookings, responding to calls and emails along with managing parts and stock. This ensures your plumbing and heating problems are resolved quickly and that you can trust we’ll be there to help when you need us.
