On one occasion, I was charged considerably less than estimate when anticipated difficulties were successfully overcome or avoided. Following my first enquiry, Circitas undertook the refurbishment and modification of my loft-mounted MVHR system. My second request of Circitas was for an upgrade of the electricity cooker supply circuit in order to meet the increased demand required for the anticipated installation of a replacement induction hob range. On the third occasion I used Circitas, the engineer fitted four surface-mounted dimmable downlights in each of two bathrooms. I would unhesitatingly use Circitas again and would recommend the company to family and friends.

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!

Update 08-03-2010…read more Just over a year after having bought the dehumidifier (and about 8 weeks out of guarantee), the heating element on it went, meaning it no longer worked. I rang the company and - to cut a long story short - they arranged for it to be picked up, repaired and delivered - at no cost to me. Absolutely brilliant. ------------------------------- Meaco are a leading supplier of office and domestic air-conditioning appliances, which also includes humidifiers and dehumidifiers, commercial fans, air purifiers, electric heating, central heating and towel heaters, as well as fixed and portable air-conditioning equipment. Meaco are the only suppliers of certain brands of equipment in the UK. Although it is possible to call at the showrooms (address above), they recommend you call first to ensure that the model you want is in stock, as the main warehouse is at a different location. That said, most customers buy via the internet. If you place an order for most items before 2pm, they guarantee next-day delivery, although they don't deliver on Saturdays or Sundays, which is a bit of a pain. (Small items under £50 value are sent by Royal Mail and so can be delivered on Saturdays). This was certainly my experience: I called first to see if the item was in stock, and placed my order at 1.30pm, and it arrived safely as predicted. A downer is that their delivery contractors can't predict a morning or afternoon call, so you have to set a whole day aside, which is a bit of a pain. The website is very easy to use, and helpfully informative, with lots of product information. I've found their telephone contact line one of the most helpful ever, and - oh joy! - it's a freephone 0500 number and not an 0845 number! An extra star for that! If you prefer a land line, it's (01483) 566688. Overall, they do what they say on their website!
