5 Star Service from Phil and Alford…

5 Star Service from Phil and Alford Plumbing & Heating.

I had previously been quoted thousands of pounds, by 2 seperate companies, that were not Alford, whose agents spent 10 minutes looking at my boiler before giving me their 2K to 4K estimates to fix my boiler.

I knew I had some work done recently to my boiler, so I was sceptical.

I called Alford Plumbing & Heating.

So very glad I did.

They booked me in.

Communication throughout was 5 star.
Text the day before and on the day, to let me know when I can expect their engineer to be at my house.

Phil arrived promptly, spent 45 minutes with my boiler. Informed me it just needed draining, which he did, no parts needed and only charged me the cost of the call out charge.

THANK YOU PHIL!!!

Phil warned me, that if the heating went again. It may require a part.

The heating went again.

Phil popped round, part in hand, and after 2 minutes informed me, no parts needed, just trapped air.

No charge.

This is exactly the reason I 100% recommend Phil and Alford Plumbing and Heating.

Honesty, integrity, and professionalism is absolutely 5 star.

Phil explained to me the reasons for the fault, what is likely to happen in the future and more importantly, fixed my boiler, for what actually needed doing, instead of trying to make us much cash off me as possible, like some other engineers (not Alfords).

Phil is an asset to this company.
As a consumer, I want to be able to trust the company that visit my home. I want to be able to trust the people that represent that company to fix what is actually needed, at a reasonable price.

It's good business sense, as I will always come back to this company for all my heating problems.

I will also recommend them to anyone else who needs work done on their boiler.

It is also why I am purposely going to leave this review on the platforms they prefer.

They deserve their flowers for 1st class service, 5 star Communication and treating their customers fairly at a reasonable price.

100% RECOMMEND.

The engineer (Phil) turned up on time, did the service in just over an hour or so and was pleasant and helpful throughout, really nice lad.
Would recommend to friends and family alike for anything plumbing or heated related.

Shower and sink tap.

Responded to my request quickly and kept me informed throughout. Polite and curtious. Would use again without hesitation. Not big jobs but still needed doing and reasonable cost.

One hell of a service

First time I used this company for a boiler service, the engineer was very good and thorough throughout the service and gave me some good future tips and advice on maintaining my boiler moving forward, very happy with the service and will be using again.

Very proficient and friendly service

Very proficient and friendly service. The original plumbing in kitchen needed a lot of adjustment which the engineer carried out. One small problem with waste from condensing boiler due to a faulty part which was swiftly dealt with into main waste water hose.

Good equipment but expensive fitting charge

Good equipment well fitted.
So why the missing star?
In the job description it said 'our qualified engineers will carry out the installation ...' In the event one young man did the job (well) and he seemed to be from a sub contractor. He was surprised that the unit was on site. He collected it , then I described the agreed layout to him, he showed me that it would be difficult to do a neat job as there were pipes in the way. he suggested putting the outside unit around the corner, but that would have obstructed a narrow sideway, so we settled on him putting it on the wall of the house. In all the job took seven hours, he did not take a break. When I thought about it afterwards I realised that we had paid upwards of £150 an hour.

Hi Roy
I'm sorry that you feel this way.
I believe that you chose us above alternative companies as we were the cheapest. The expert that we used works for us on many projects and their costs and the cost of the equipment were reflected in our quotation.
Hope you enjoy your air conditioning unit.
Thanks Anja
