Really pleased to hear the air conditioning unit is performing so well after its service — a thorough clean really does make a noticeable difference. It's great to know the team kept everything neat and tidy throughout the job too, as we always aim to leave a space exactly as we found it.

Efficient and friendly service. The plumber gave sensible advice and didn't try and solve a problem that could not be solved.

Everyone I spoke to was friendly and very helpful. The engineer arrived on time and was excellent at work and friendly. I have never had a problem with the company even the payment was easy. This is not always the case for me at the grand old age of 85!!!

Their service is very slow and expensive.

Our boiler wasn't working. They came very late. Even their office was closed. The engineer couldn't get a quote or part. so had to wait in the cold another day.
Also, they quoted a very high amount and 2 weeks time period. I got it fixed the same day for a third of their quote! Their service is very slow and expensive.

What a wonderful review to receive — thank you so much for taking the time to share this. It's brilliant to hear that the Worcester boiler we installed all those years ago is still going strong, and that Ruby has been looking after you so well during the annual services. Knowing we have loyal customers right here in Rugby who trust us year after year genuinely means the world to us.

Pricing for a service has gone through the roof and wasn’t advised in advance. The AI telephone agent is awful too.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the price increase came as a surprise and that the AI telephone agent didn’t meet expectations. The cost of the service is displayed before you book as we never want you to feel surprised by the bill. We appreciate you raising this and will take your comments on board as we review the way the cost is displayed.

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.

It's great to hear that the small details made a difference, particularly taking care to protect your carpets, as that kind of consideration matters to us. We look forward to seeing you again at the next service.
