Excellent Service

I found Carlton Services to be extremely responsive and efficient throughout my dealings with them.
The fitting of our replacement unit was challenging owing to the position within our cupboard. The engineer adapted well to the challenge.

Carlton's service has been exceptional

Carlton's service has been exceptional. Having installed and maintained our aircon units now for a number of years, in this last service we urgently needed a unit moved from it's position on a deck to a wall mount.
We made the request and within days Carlton had a team onsite who made quick work of the repositioning.
Excellent service, great responsiveness and quality equipment.

Not happy about my bill and the overall result.

I have recently had two call-outs as our heating was not coming on. The first visit was recorded as 3 hours, which was certainly not my recollection - I said the engineer could sign on my behalf, which was a mistake, as I received a bill for £370. The second visit (to fit a part which I ordered and collected) was charged at just under £80. The engineer was pleasant and tried to be helpful, but the system is not functioning properly, and I would have appreciated some advice on how to programme the new part.

Hi Sue, thanks for the review and sorry to hear that you're not happy about the overall result, that is certainly not what we expect. If the system is not functioning properly I can arrange for someone to come back under warranty, please let me know if you would like to do this. Adam Carlton

Not sure a service contract for this equipment is worth it

It's a quick service (about 15mins) and all the boxes on the maint. sheets are checked - , some of the checks like checking the water pressure, ensure the controller and thermostats are working, condition of cylinder, you could do yourself. There's very little advice given re settings. The whole experience is a little underwhelming. I would like Carlton to offer a free call out if anything actually fails.

Hi David, thanks for your review, I can see we have serviced the heat pump since 2022 so appreciate the continued support. A heat pump should be on 24/7 and only really cycle on the thermostat, there aren't really many settings to go through and change. If you would like to discuss any further please let me know.

Supplied a faulty Burko boiler

Supplied a faulty Burko boiler. Wouldn’t replace it. Had to register the warranty then burco got involved asking what the problem was. Then after that asking for a video of something that can’t be seen. 0 out of 10 for after sales. Once Carlton have sold you the product they are not interested. They pass it on to the manufacturer. This boiler went into special needs school so it was imperative that it works. I got the boiler repaired out of my own pocket. If I was to wait on Carlton it would still not be working now. Once bitten.

Hi Roy, im very sorry to hear of the poor experience you have received, unfortunately we are at liberty to the manufacturers warranty process and without obtaining the required information it is very difficult to move things forward. I reached out to you myself on the 19th September and did not receive any information back. If you would like to discuss further please let me know. Adam Carlton

Great service

Great service! Goods arrived when they should; fitter turned up and installed glasswasher, ensuring everything was working as it should and instructed my staff on how to use it. And they took the old one away! What more could you ask for?

Great air con unit installed by very professional engineers

Great service. Some slight delays when ordering and price confirmation but engineers were very professional and the unit was installed without issue. They were very respectful of the property, and left the room as they found it. The unit is very good, works very well so much so I feel like I’m in the artic! Roll on another sweltering summer I’m ready 😜

Quality product from a great company

I wanted a good quality air conditioning unit and Ordered from Carlton. The unit I wanted was discontinued by the manufacturers and Carlton quickly got in touch and were very helpful. The alternative from the same manufacturer seemed just right and so was dispatched at speed. Cindy from accounts was so good at ensuring I received the difference owing to me. I have no hesitation in recommending Carlton to anyone needing a quality air conditioning unit.
