Many people also commend the staff for their outstanding helpfulness, patience, and expertise, making the selection and purchasing process smooth and enjoyable. The delivery service is frequently noted for its efficiency, promptness, and careful handling of items, with many consumers appreciating the clear communication throughout the process.

Initially I gave a poor review because of a delay of a catalog. Castrads followed up stating holiday shipping cause some delays. They promised my catalog would be there the next day, and it was. They... See more

delivery info not provided and no invoice

Information on delivery date is not provided at time of purchase which was frustrating when trying to arrange a suitable date for fitting. They just message to say DPD will arrange… Which they did but 2 days of not knowing when to schedule trades during a renovation is just annoying for something so simple to do at purchase. They also didn’t send me an invoice, When I emailed to request they responded to say we sent it already check spam (I specified in my first email I’d already checked spam etc) again just annoying. They did resolve and issue after my second email, just shouldn’t have been required. Overall, Product was adequate for my needs but the purchase process was subpar.

They made a mistake but acted on it quickly

In a nutshell, we received radiators with legs rather than hanging as we had ordered. The team was really quick to resolve their mistake and didn't charge us a penny. The radiators are made with care. They're beautiful and fantastic quality. Highly recommended!!

Thanks for your review Bassim.

For a little clarification, the radiators that failed were mild steel towel rails connected to a domestic hot water system, which is against regulations. We provided replacements in brass, which is to regs, for cost price.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience - I know it's frustrating. Had your plumber told us at the time of purchase that the rails were to be used on a DHW system we could have recommended brass rails in the first instance.

Castrads is a truely professional…

Castrads is a truely professional company from initial on line ordering to the follow up confirmation and the follow up telephone calls in relation to delivery. Wonderful service.

The radiators themselves are beautiful - very well made with excellent attention to detail. Many thanks to the whole team.

It's hot in here

Nathan at Castrads was an absolute gem, he was knowledgeable, helpful and super professional. At an on site visit he took the time to talk us through our many options, helping us work out what was best for the space, and never put us under pressure - a level of customer service that is rare indeed these days.
The first of 3 radiators is now installed and we are delighted with it - it looks stunning! So glad we pushed the boat out and went with a product, and company, that spoke to us: as my grandma used to say, "You never regret an extravagance". Thanks Nathan!

Beautiful radiator and accessories

Beautiful radiator and accessories!
Castrads customer service team went above and beyond to help us out when our wall stays were cut too short, the team were very kind and responded really quickly. The delivery driver was fab too, he helped me carry the radiator in so it didn’t block out alleyway.
Excellent service and excellent radiator!

Brilliant service, start to finish

Brilliant service from home visit to choose radiators, checking size and number required to recommending company to install and also remove old radiators
All worked smoothly, would highly recommend
They also offer a refurb option, but that was not appropriate for our old knock offs
