In an effort to reduce waste I tried to repair my Miele C3 vacuum cleaner (light would flash but it wouldn’t turn on when the power button was pushed, tried a new fuse in plug)

I read they were built to last and could be repaired, so dutifully watched a YouTube video and over the course of a few days took it completely apart. When I reached the motor I realised I had no idea what to do next, no time to do it, and with two small children and Christmas coming I just desperately needed a working vacuum cleaner.

So I’ve written it off and have ordered a new one. But if there are any people out there who enjoy tinkering, or who could use it for spares, you are very welcome to it. It’s still disassembled with all parts very tidily bagged up.

    • Suggest, speak to: 1. The Modern House - we successfully used them as have friends. 2. Agents in areas that have larger amounts of former industrial building conversions who steer buyers looking for type of property v location.
    • Thank you for the feedback! Helps to see we're not alone. The only good experience we had was Modern House. Anyone tried Strike/Purple Bricks/Yopa? How did it go? Anything to be mindful of?
    • Best experience we had was with Modern House. The rest of the agents around the area are appalling.... They just want their commission and not interested in getting a good deal. You'd be lucky if they pick up the phone...
    • I’d like to echo the positive comments about Trelco. I discovered that the stopcock on the rising main was leaking and was damaging the flooring in the utility room. Not having seen this thread, or any reviews for that matter,  I picked Trelco  as it was the nearest to me. It was a gamble but goodness it paid off. James was responsive and clear in what he offered. His colleague Andy replaced the offending stopcock and put in a lever valve to allow me to shut off the water easily when I go away. He did a great job, neat and tidy, he was cheerful, friendly and professional. All this within a day of contacting them. Although not an emergency it needed resolution quickly. The price charged was very reasonable indeed, especially considering the quality of the service. I am so pleased to have found such an excellent plumber.
