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,

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.

    • So you are a ‘member’ 😳whatever that means, but also not. It’s not very clear…. But also totally transparent. Miaow 💅😂 Maybe I will, maybe I won’t 😂 What is interesting about your questions is that they suggest, as usual, that you see everything as a really basic binary opposition (cars vs bike, anti LTN vs pro-council etc). It’s not very nuanced Rocks. I don’t have great love for Southwark council as I suspect you assume. That said, neither do I have a lot of time for the apocalyptic hyperbole of those still upset over a fairly minor change to a road junction in the village, made several years ago, and which actually creates a nice public space for pedestrians and a bit more safety for kids travelling to school by bike. Ah, what the hell, let’s play…as you asked so nicely: The one that took place between May and July 2021 I don’t know much about this. It seems it was reopened though? Apparently they have the agreement of the emergency services this time, (which perhaps does suggests they didn’t consult with them properly the first time round). Of course someone (the mysterious Mr One?) believes the emergency services are being intimidated somehow (possibly by commies) so maybe Southwark still haven’t learnt their lesson? No, I don’t. Although I hear the Mysterious Mr One would like it redesigned to make things clearer. 😂 As for your ‘question 3 sub-points’ I don’t actually agree with their premise (a bit of the old ‘how often do you beat your wife’ framing going on there… slippery 😂) Anyway good luck with the referendum.   
    • I often walk past 'Kenro Press' and think it looks very sad and negleted. I wonder when it was last a viable business - tried googling it but nothing much came up Great to hear it is being brought back to life, perhaps a pity it will not be a new usefull retail premises. Lots of work needed so good luck with your renovation
    • No I don't disagree. I wasn't condoning drivers getting confused and the debate on whether refresher tests should be taken is a long one and is something probably for a Malumbu- thread!   I take it you never entered your details as someone agreeing with their sentiment but lots of Dulwich residents did and as part of that you get their email updates. So no, I have nothing to do with tje group beyond one of those two thousand dots on their website as a "member" is me!   Now, are you going to answer my questions or pretend you never saw them....p.s. we have seen this tactic before - happy to throw questions but not happy to answer some yourself...
