The most awful service I have ever experienced…read more Apparently, you cannot give 0 stars, which is a shame, as Pimlico do not even deserve 1 star. Incompetent administration, an engineer who lied and a complaints process which is basically them deciding that you are wrong. As others have said it's £150 up front. The engineer turned up, worked about 5 minutes and said everything was fine. 3 days later the leak started again in exactly the same place. Pimlico said I would have to pay again to get someone to look at it and that their engineer had advised a replacement which I had refused and that it was all detailed in the engineer report. Of course, I had never received the engineer report as they had the wrong email address for me, and if I had received it, I would have challenged the false statements the engineer had included in it. I immediately made a complaint, which they dismissed as they had video evidence that supported the fact I was lying about what the engineer told me. They didn't follow their own 3 step complaints process, they are not a member of any external ombudsmen or complaints scheme. So, when they defraud you and dismiss your claim, you have nowhere to go. Oh and of course they later admitted they didn't have any video evidence and claiming they had was a mistake, but they still didn't refund me the £150 or admit any wrongdoing. Literally the worst company I have ever dealt with.

A Running Scam -- A Criminal Scheme of Alarming Scale! It's…read morehard to believe this so-called business is still operating unchecked. For years, it has posed as one of Britain's top plumbing companies while repeatedly defrauding customers. I wish I had read the many negative reviews from others who were scammed just like me. The company displays a distinctive pattern. We called them to replace a simple plastic bath mixer- an attachment -- a very basic fixture that any professional plumber should carry or quickly source. During the initial call, and after paying £156 in advance, for the first hour, I offered to send a photo of the required part. They refused. That should have been the first red flag. Their tactic is simple: arrive, declare they don't have the part, suggest a quick trip to a local DIY shop that predictably doesn't stock it, then "go to Argos" -- consuming most of the paid hour. The plumber never returns but instead sends a follow-up report, suggesting another visit the next day for an additional £200 to "complete the job." In reality, the part is standard -- any competent plumber should either carry it or be able to collect it easily from their office stock. Instead, the company pockets £156 for doing virtually nothing. For reference, they quoted £360 to install a basic shower mixer onto bathtub taps -- a task that's usually straightforward and should not require such inflated costs or deceptive practices. This operation has exploited customers this way for years, as proven by numerous similar online complaints. Avoid these fraudsters and report their scam to Citizens Advice, who can escalate the matter to Trading Standards for investigation.

After over a year of weak showers and inconsistent hot water, I finally faced up to one of the…read morebiggest downsides of being a homeowner - replacing the aging boiler. Decision made, it was time to do some research and find a plumber to handle the installation. Enter Google which quickly sent my hopes for a quick and easy job crashing down as story after story of being ripped off on labour charges or boilers that needed repairs due to faulty installation. Long story short, I found a pretty solid company (after an exhaustive search) called Heat, Light, & Power which provided a clean installation, impeccable customer service, and an overall stress-free environment. I started with RatedPeople.com to locate a boiler specialist with good reviews and found a local plumber with a handful of positive feedback. They offered a free quote so I rescheduled my evening plans to get it sorted. The plumber took a cursory look around the place, suggested an unvented boiler to bring my hot water up to mains pressure, and then left without taking any measurements. A few days later I got the quote: £1,800 with little other detail. Being an avid reviewer and blogger, I find it hard to take things at face value without either having experience myself or reading other people's reviews. So a boiler without a review and scant detail from the plumber (I was told several times to stop asking questions and just accept the quote) isn't really going to work for me. Enter Heat, Light, & Power which got in touch with me through Thermaflow (a top-end boiler manufacturer that offers a free referral service). From the start HLP were head and shoulders above the previous guys. It seems to be a small family run operation, but this is a positive rather than a draw back. Le runs the admin and customer service realm and was a delight to work with. She responded to emails within hours if not minutes and provided a wealth of detail in both the original quote and follow up emails to my questions. Le also efficiently organized both the initial free survey and the installation around my schedule which meant I didn't have to take any time off work. The main engineer is Keith, a friendly guy who exudes a reassuring degree of competence and confidence. He came over for the initial survey and took a close look at the plumbing and electrics and explained in considerable detail why he recommended an unvented cylinder boiler and the type of work that would go into the installation. By the end of the survey, I actually felt as though I knew a good deal about the boiler and works required so for once was without any questions. During the installation, a similar degree of assurance was provided with Keith being onsite to supervise the installation and ensure the disruption was kept to a minimum. Although the work took two days, they were careful to leave the flat clean after the first day and store the equipment out of the way to the point it was barely noticeable. When there was a minor leak from a fitting the day after the installation, Keith rushed over at 7.30am to sort it out and offered to come back if there was any damage (thankfully there was none!). A couple of key things that really distinguish these guys from the usual mob is that a) they turned up exactly on time and b) they didn't try to up sell or install unnecessary equipment. I had actually asked for a timer which wasn't installed as Keith didn't believe it would be cost-efficient given the tariff I was on. That's a fairly rare quality that they'll go against an order if they believe it to be unnecessary expense and I appreciated it. Keith also fixed my kitchen light switch for free as he said it was a simple 5-minute job - that's above and beyond for taking care of your customers! It's been about a month and so far no problems. I'd definitely recommend these guys to anyone looking for plumbing or electrical work and they'll be my first call for any future projects!
