Common questions

How quickly can you get to an emergency?

Usually the same day inside our core area, and often within two hours. We'll give you an honest window on the phone rather than a promise we can't keep.

Do you charge for quotes?

No. Surveys and written quotes for installations and fit-outs are free, with no obligation.

Are you Gas Safe registered?

Yes — registration 517942. Ask to see the card on the doorstep; every engineer carries one.

What guarantee do I get?

Twelve months on our workmanship, plus the manufacturer's warranty on any appliance we supply and register for you.

Do you work with letting agents?

Regularly. We can hold keys, deal directly with tenants and invoice monthly against a portfolio.

How do I pay?

Card or bank transfer on completion for repairs; staged payments on larger installations, set out in the quote.
