Had my boiler serviced by Custom Heat this morning for the first time, and I was really impressed. They arrived on time, put protective covers over their shoes (which I really appreciated as I have cream carpets), and carried out the service efficiently and professionally.

Everything was left clean and tidy with no mess, and they took the time to explain exactly what they had done before they left. Excellent customer service from start to finish. I'll definitely be using Custom Heat again and would happily recommend them.

Generally very good, but I have to say Custom Heat prices are getting to the point where we'll consider going elsewhere. Also, maybe relying too heavily on AI.

I asked for a quote for installing an air conditioning unit in a bedroom. I explained that I need a fairly accurate quote as it was to be a family present to a sibling for a special birthday and we wouldn’t mention it if it was too expensive . They gave us a quote with the highest estimate reaching our max. After a view of the room by phone -a room that had no issues in terms of installation-they came back with a quote of about £750 over their top estimate. We had on the basis of their original quote told our sibling of the present. Fortunately we have found a reputable firm who can do it within our budget

No advice that you would be requiring a 50% deposit and then a demand for it, with threats, when I was away from home.
5 days to respond to my acceptance of your quote and then an insistence that the work be done on 2 possible but very inconvenient days.

Great service

Turned up within time slot. Courteous and friendly. Put shoe covers on to come inside without being prompted (not all people do this!). Took the time to tell me what investigations would do. Informed me when electric would be turned off. Went through the issue clearly and told me what needed doing to fix it. Fixed it all quickly and left everything tidy. Easy to book in and great service. Custom Heat/Electric is always our go to.

Great service, friendly staff

Initial stock shortages pushed back my air conditioning installation without much notice, but everything else was great. Technicians were really friendly and consulted me every time there was a decision about where pipes went etc, to make sure I was happy. The units work really well and have made life much more comfortable in the house. Would recommend Custom Heat.

Excellent Full House A/C Installation

Custom Heat provided an excellent A/C installation on my 10 year old house. The way they dressed the external pipework enclosures to mimic the existing drainpipes was masterful, and most people haven't even noticed.
Very professional during installation. Great at communicating with us all the way through the project, and taking on board our wishes and concerns. The A/C is fantastically powerful and quiet, and has absolutely transformed our home. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

What a pleasure to read this — thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience. The care taken to dress the external pipework to match your existing drainpipes is exactly the kind of thoughtful finishing touch our installation team takes real pride in, so it's brilliant to hear it made such an impression. We're really glad the whole process felt well communicated and that the system has transformed your home. Your recommendation means a great deal to us.
