Boiler service

The engineer came and serviced the boiler and told me that everything was working fine. The communication between you and myself before the engineer arrived was good too

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the issue required multiple visits to resolve, as we always aim to complete repairs as efficiently as possible. That said, we’re pleased to know the issue has now been resolved.

In some cases, where multiple issues are identified, these may need to be addressed at separate times, as each appointment is typically allocated for a single claim. These would be treated as separate claims. There are also occasions where additional visits may be necessary to fully resolve an issue and I am sorry if this caused any inconvenience.

We appreciate your patience in this instance and thank you for taking the time to share your experience. If you do need any further assistance, please feel free to email us on heretohelpteam@homeserve.co.uk we will be more than happy to help.

This was a 'repeat' problem with a tap that was fitted by HomeServe in Nov 2025. AI booked me an evening appt for the repair - then I had the option of contact with a human (so much better). The advisor was more than helpful. He offered an earlier pm appt, and without any bother refunded my standard charge. The guy who fixed the tap was also very personable, and easy to explain to. Good experience all round. Thankyou.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Lyn.

We are really pleased to hear that your experience was a positive one from start to finish. It is great to know that the booking process worked well for you, and that once connected with an advisor, you received helpful and flexible support, including arranging a more convenient appointment and refunding the standard charge.

We are also delighted to hear that the engineer who carried out the repair was personable and easy to communicate with, helping to make the whole experience a smooth one.

They do temporary fixes, not proper ones

Sadly I’ve had to make a complaint which has been rejected. A fix was identified for a leak but required a part to be ordered. In the meantime the engineer applied a temporary fix to stop the leak until they could come back with the part. However, Homeserve then closed the claim as fixed stating that the temporary measure was sufficient. Leaving me to wait for the leak to resume which I won’t know until my ceiling below becomes damaged. So if you want a proper job doing, paying for a policy isn’t cost effective as you’ll still need to call a plumber out to complete the work. Extremely disappointed with this experience and being left with this worry hanging over me.

UPDATE: Just to be clear, changing the part was NOT deemed precautionary by the engineer, it was necessary to fix the issue properly instead of just putting a plaster over it. They are using this as an excuse to not fully complete the job. Engineers want to be in and out quickly so shortcuts are taken. Extremely disappointing.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry to hear that this situation has left you feeling concerned and disappointed.

Where no ongoing issue is identified and there are no current leaks, we would not carry out further work on a precautionary basis, including replacing parts that are not currently required. If a further problem arises after the initial repair, we would be able to assess this again once notified and complete further work where necessary.

We’re sorry that the outcome has not provided the reassurance you were expecting, as we always aim for our customers to feel fully supported. Please be assured that we remain on hand to help should anything change or if you need further assistance.
If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact us at heretohelpteam@homeserve.co.uk and we’ll be happy to help

A very polite gas engineer

A very polite gentleman turned, having already advised me by phone that he was coming. He serviced the boiler , advised me there were a couple of problems that he would eventually come and fix. He was very polite and appeared to be very professional.
All in all I was very impressed and he deserves five stars.

After explaining to an operator that my…

After explaining to an operator that my direct cylinder in the loft the overflow pipe on the outside wall was running. The operator said I was covered. The homeserve plumber turned up. As soon as he said to me have I got a loft ladder. I could see he wasn’t interested. He got in the loft stood about 6 feet away from the cylinder and said I wasn’t covered. He left sat in his van and spent more time doing his report than he spent in the loft.
I called homeserve. The person I spoke to I felt was condescending in telling me why I wasn’t covered. I’ve been with homeserve probably 20 years and don’t expect to be treated that way. What makes it worse is I am a chartered Building survey. So if I’m told I am covered that’s what I expect. So I got a plumber who I can trust and is reliable to do the job. Took him 15 minutes had to get a new part but not difficult for a competent plumber to do. Interestingly Homeserve although they said I wasn’t covered said they could do the job but would need see what parts were needed and the give me a price.

Hi Robert, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear your recent experience did not meet your expectations, particularly around how the visit was handled and the communication you received.

We understand clarity is important and that it can be disappointing when there is a difference between what was initially discussed and the outcome on the day. Sometimes where an issue is outside of the cope of cover, we may be able to offer a quote for a paid repair. I can see we fully refunded the excess of £30.

We’re pleased you were able to get the issue resolved, but we’re sorry the experience left you feeling disappointed. We appreciate your loyalty to us over the years, and I have logged this as a complaint for you to be reviewed by our Customer Relations Team. If you require any further support in the meantime, please feel free to email us on heretohelpteam@homeserve.co.uk
