Another huge recommendation for Pete - I have been amazed by his attentive service. I called him on Monday when another heating engineer couldn't fix our boiler, which had broken down over the weekend. He arrived within half an hour, and found that the PCB wasn't working. I managed to source a replacement the next day, and spoke to him in the afternoon. He called round at 8.30 last night, and spent another hour fitting the new PCB. Sadly he then found that the fan was also not working. Our boiler is about 20 years old and replacement parts are now very expensive, so he recommended we should call out the manufacturer's repair service who have a call out charge which includes all parts, which he said would be a cheaper option than buying another major replacement part for him to fit. He then texted me this morning to say that he was removing an old boiler today which was the same make, and offered to come round to replace my fan with the one from the redundant boiler. He made a long round trip, and spent another hour trying to resolve the problem. Once the fan and the circuit board were both working, he then found that there was yet another faulty part, so at this point we agreed that I would call out the manufacturer. However, Pete had also spoken to the shop where I had bought the PCB from yesterday, explained what had happened, and has arranged for them to give me a full refund.


I really couldn't ask for better service than this. Pete really has gone far out of his way to help and we will definitely use him again at such time as we need to replace our boiler.

    • Pickup your dogs shit off the street, it's so simple. Don't own a dog if you cannot do this basic service. Pathetic. Cleaning my shoes of dog shit for the 2nd time this month. What's going on? 
    • Hi SpringTime, I completely understand the concern for protecting birds, but using bells on cats is a bit more complicated. While they may reduce hunting success, they're not always effective & can cause stress for some cats, who are highly sensitive to sound. A better solution is to ensure cats are kept indoors during peak bird activity & providing plenty of enrichment at home to satisfy their hunting instincts. There's a terrible misconception that cats do not require as much mental & physical enrichment as dogs do. But they do, if not more so.

    • Hi Nigello, Many spayed/neutered & microchipped cats actually don't wear collars, as they often go missing & can pose risks.  Microchipping is far more reliable for reuniting lost cats with their guardians. Some of our clients even keep sacks of collars on standby because their cats frequently return without them - a comical but telling example of how impractical collars can be. A major contributor to unspayed/unneutered cats & kittens is purchasing from breeders, where these measures are often overlooked. Adopting from shelters, on the other hand, ensures all precautionary steps - like spaying/neutering, microchipping, as well as vaccinations - are already in place.
