This company has walked away without paying a penny after causing in excess of £30,000 worth of damage to my property. They claimed they were qualified to fit gas-fired underfloor heating and wood burning stoves - they were not. Even their fitting of the gas boiler contravened regs in many places. My gas usage averaged £350 a month, in a three-bedroom bungalow, and I had no choice but to pull it all out and retrofit a new system, which involved major building works to a brand newly-finished property. My solicitor uncovered evidence that suggests the iteration of Pickups I traded with was not HETAS registered at the time they did the work at my house. The independent technical report I had done called the installation 'immediately dangerous'. To avoid liability, Andrew Pickup made his elderly father MD and removed himself as director, before he 'rolled' the company. His history of directorships suggests this is not the first time this has happened, and I'm guessing this won't be the last. My suggestion is, steer very well clear of this company unless you just want a radiator changed. read more
