    FULL INSTALLATION OF A NEW CWNTRAL HEATING BOILER WITH FULL REPOSITIONING AND ALL ENTAILING £3768.72

    Posted 12 September 2022

    THE WORK WAS CARRIED OUT WITH AN ONGOING PROBLEM OF THE THERMOSTAT NOT WORKING AND NO CONTROL FOR MY 90 YEAR OLD PARENTS - SEVERAL MANY CONTACTS MADE TO ROY WHO HAD SENT ONE MAN 4MONTHS AGO TO COME AND ASSESS AND TELL ROY OF THE NEED TO FIX THIS FAULTY PART WHICH THE GUY SAID WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED REPLACING - NO REPAIR HAS TAKEN PLACE ROY HAS NOT CONTACTED ANY OF US AND AT THIS POINT IT SEEMS HE DOES NOT WANT TO RECTIFY THIS FAULT. THE COLD WEATHER IS FAST APPROACHING AND THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TREATMENT AND WORKMANSHIP TO VERY ELDERLY PEOPLE THEY HAD SAVED FOR SEVERAL YEARS TO HAVE THIS DONE.

    Worcester Combi boiler wasn’t heating the water enough. It had an EA fault.

    Posted 01 September 2022

    Roy King came to my home. The solution was a service. He did explain at the end that it needed a part that needed replacing, a “Flow Regulator and plastic bit”. It was around 5 when he finished, so I said I’d buy the part from City Plumbing. He said he’d come back and fit it. But he never came back. On March 1, I sent Roy King the message that I had the part. His reply was “ I’ll pop over later in the week if OK, maybe Saturday morning.” I paid him cash for the entire job. 12.3.22 I asked him for an ETA, as I had shopping to do. His reply, he had Covid. No replies: 12.3 18.3 1.4 13.6 16.6

    Unfortunately the customer in question didn’t pay me for the whole job as stated, I serviced the boiler and did a total strip down service of the heat exchanger which I recommended replacement as not possible to clean out completely as boiler had never been serviced before I managed to get boiler working the customer said she was short of money so I didn’t charge her full amount for work carried out as a gesture She did eventually ring to say she had flow restrictor as I told her this requires replacement In the meantime I caught Covid and couldn’t work for a period.
