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.

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.

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
