Quick response (less than 24 hr from my call) at a time of peak demand, the engineer arrived early in the appointment window (saving me a potentially long wait) and he did an excellent job with an air con system that is complex and temperamental.

First time customer - routine electrical

My experience with Pimlico as a first time customer. Timings are approximate!

12:55 filled in a very straightforward website form for a routine job remaking electrical connections in my loft.
13:05 Pimlico call me back
13:10 Price quoted (reasonable and significantly cheaper than one from another electrician) appointment booked in and payment taken over the phone.
Andrew calls to let me know he’s on the way.
15:40 He arrives. Has everything he needs with him and gets the job done professionally and without fuss.

As someone who used to do the same job I’m a critical reviewer. I was very impressed with Pimlico from start to finish and would use them again without hesitation.

Slow response to urgent request

Ben the electrician was great, communicative etc. But here I am 2 weeks later and I still haven't received my electrical safety certificate after being told it would take a couple of days. 2 phone calls during that time when I was told the certificate would be expedited but still nothing.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to locate the job details using the information provided in your review, which means we are currently unable to investigate this further.

Lone females BEWARE

Lone females BEWARE! The bathroom is worse after he had spent a day there - before he came I had a damaged shower back board and by the time he left he had upscaled a simple job to the point where both the bath and the shower were out of action: he knew my urgency and deadlines for a new tenant . He changed my roll top bath chrome plugs and chain without asking me for a new modern look that I wouldn’t have bought myself, broke my shower handle, bought the wrong waste trap for my roll top (he spent all day in the bathroom but didn’t realise until just before he’d finished that the bath was too low and needed a specialist piece of kit that I could order next day delivery and he’d come back to fit it - at a price obvs). The whole experience has left a bitter taste in my mouth. One of being taken for granted, a plumber that was more like a salesman on the make for the next job and how much he could make from the job.
I DO NOT recommend single females use them and shame shame on you PP for actively supporting this behaviour. This whole thing has been a farce and cost me a fortune over the bank holiday weekend to fix his mistake.

Hi Alison,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to read about your experience and the distress this has clearly caused you. We understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when inviting a tradesperson into your home, and we take concerns of this nature extremely seriously.

Having reviewed the job notes, the initial attendance identified significant underlying issues within the bathroom, including failed fixings, leaks within the system, and defects in the existing installation. As a result, further works were recommended to properly resolve these issues, including removing and replacing compromised pipework, addressing leaks within the wall, and reinstating affected bathroom areas to ensure a long-term and safe repair.

During the second visit, our engineer carried out a number of remedial works, including replacing defective pipework, addressing leaks, installing new fittings, and testing the system to ensure it was watertight. At the time of completion, no active leaks were identified. Certain additional elements, such as tiling and finishing works, were discussed as separate works due to the scale and specialist nature of the repairs required.

We are, however, very sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with the outcome and that there were aspects of the experience that caused you concern. This is not the standard of service we expect from our engineers, and we take your comments very seriously. We also want to reassure you that we do not condone any behaviour that leaves customers feeling uncomfortable or unsupported in their own home.

We would welcome the opportunity to review this matter further and address your concerns directly. Please contact our Customer Services team so we can investigate fully and ensure your experience is properly looked into.

Kind regards,
Pimlico Plumbers
