Boiler repair man - please recommend

Recommended Posts

I am looking to find a Worcester Bosch expert please. I have a CD40i with a remote thermostat and since we had some building work done and it was turned off for about 4 weeks I cannot get it to work with the thermostat. I can either have the heating on or off. Can anyone help?

Thanks

By way of feedback/recommendation.


I needed a boiler service and heating system check urgently yesterday for a new house I'm about to move in to.


I called Affleck Property Services, but they could only come on Friday, and wanted to charge a premium for being "out of area" (Upper Sydenham).


I then called Kevin of KT Heating Services as recommended above. He was brilliant! Came out within a couple of hours, bang on time, got my system up and running and even set up the timer for me, bled the radiators etc and explained how it all worked. I honestly couldn't have been more pleased and he charged me half what Affleck had quoted. He is Gas Safe (ex CORGI) registered so will be coming back at some point to cap off an old gas fire for me too.


Smashing local bloke (based on Overhill Rd), can't recommend him highly enough.


His no is 07904 980419 (now stored in my phone for next years boiler service!).

Had a very good experience with Mourad of MK Plumbing and Heating Services. Local (Copleston Road). Very professional, personable, trustworthy, reliable. No hesitation whatsoever in recommending. His contact numbers are 07950 478 383 or 0800 619 8129.

I can recommend John who has posted above - his company is called Hands on Heating, if you search for this or his mobile number I expect you'll find the numerous other recommendations on this site.


John came to service my boiler and heating system a few wks ago and has been excellent and really good value.

My boiler packed up this week and having used John Powers (07977909339 ) based on a previous's post recommendation I can highly recommend him. He was quick, efficient and very helpful. Boiler is now working fine again with no problems.

Hi,


I have been recommending James on here, I think you will find old posts where user of ED have used him.


Company going since 1973, started by his father. Excellent work, I run a commercial premises and hes the only person my landlord will use because he is very cost effective in his repairs!

My partner has his own company that is separate from me. He has been recently helping to refurb my commercial centre and my landlord is over the moon with his work. I see how he works because I live with him, I know his quality of work because I get to see it and hear the customers feedback!


If it helps someone to get a job done by a genuine and trusted tradesman then what is wrong with that. As a business owner myself I would not put my neck on the line to recommend someone if I did not KNOW their work was 100%. Believe me, there are friends and extended family members I wouldn?t dream of recommending but thankfully my partner is one of the hardest working people who is an absolute perfectionist and has been doing what he does for 27 years.


It is NOT like recommending myself, not at all.

I am just wondering why my post of recomending my partner, who is actually employed by me to carry out work on my commercial centre is deleted but it is ok for others to recomend themselfs? I do not see the problem in people recomending people they know, I have been honest about it but what I cannot understand is if this is not allowed, why it is ok for others to remain doing the same? This confuses me as to the rules of this forum.

Can only back up recommendations for John Powers on this strand. Our boiler broke down yesterday and we found his name and contact here. He arrived with all the parts on the same day. Quick clean service, reasonable and honest rates. Genuinely local rather than a agency or call centre agent. Highly recommend. 07977 909 339

Another recommendation for John following a boiler service a few weeks ago - he was punctual, friendly, efficient and charged a very reasonable rate. He also gave me some advice regarding our boiler without putting on an ounce of pressure to engage him to do the work. I already knew about the issues he pointed out and it was refreshing to have someone give me the facts without trying to alarm me into signing up on the spot. A very nice guy to deal with.

    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
