Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 174 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers commend the staff and engineers for their helpfulness, professionalism, and dedication, especially during emergency callouts and complex repairs. People appreciate the clear communication and the effort made to minimize disruption during works, often highlighting specific individuals for their exceptional service. The efficiency in responding to gas leaks and making properties safe is frequently praised, with some noting quick arrival times and thorough checks. However, some people were dissatisfied with the service regarding job completion and communication, with reports of engineers not showing up or jobs being left unfinished. There are also concerns about repeated roadworks in the same locations causing inconvenience and traffic issues, and instances where customer property was damaged. A few customers experienced poor customer service, including being left without gas or hot water for extended periods, particularly affecting vulnerable individuals.

Paddy rescued us and fixed what the 1st negligent casent engineer didn't fix

We had two separate cadent engineers put the first one was dangerously negligent he didn't fix the problem was distracted and left my home still leaking gas and made my autistic teenager who has no ability to smell and my dog extremely unwell.. He knew he'd done a shoddy job too because he didn't even leave the paperwork when he left. A formal complaint is underway although their customer service chap was barely literate so I'm not overtly optimistic on how that will go in truth.

However the second chap who came cadent was polar opposite his name was Paddy and he was incredibly thorough, kind, considerate, and did go above and beyond to make sure my family and I were safe he also resolved the concern fully and he just could not have done more he's the sole reason I'm giving 5 stars as based on the other two cadet you'd owe me star…..

Another two bit company

Another two bit company. Some snotty woman on the phone. Left me without heating and water. Keep making excuses not to repair a leak. This is disgusting. Will have to get British Gas out. A pensioner with health conditions. Honestly the state of the UK now!! Nobody is reliable.

I wish I lived somewhere nice. Like Luxembourg, Channel Islands, Japan, or Singapore. They have good infrastructure and clean safe places.

Hoping pensioners will die without gas supply. They keep trying everything to get rid of us.

I'm still having to pay for the gas though. Even though there is no longer any supply.

Excellent experience, our engineer arrived quickly in response to an error made by another engineer fitting a new boiler for us. Christopher was incredibly helpful, going above and beyond to provide advice and get the issue on the road to being sorted. Thank you!

Here we go AGAIN!!! these Muppets dig up at A572 Leigh road in Worsley EVERY SINGLE YEAR without fail, sometimes multiple times. Spent hours sat at temporary lights thanks to these lot. Either the infrastructure they are installing is substandard or their 'engineers' completely incompetent!
Get your act together and jog on!!!

Dreadful experience

Dreadful experience, during installation of new gas pipe, dug up my driveway 3 times. Also dug up pathway and took 3 weeks to fill hole. Gas disconnected for 2 days,after contacting the company they said it would be off for 4 days, before I kicked up a fuss! Dispute going on about damage to my property for 3 months! Too many departments, none of which liaise with each other and don't seem to have anyone in control!

Chaotic Cadent - Refused to perform safety diagnostics after SBtM referral



Perhaps the most chaotic and inept organisation I have dealt with.

Further to my raising a query, an emergency engineer visited and left a physical GIUSP warning notice after isolating an appliance.

A referral was made to SBtM.

The call regarding that eventually came but the operator advised that eligibility for a service was denied. She called back, having apparently changed her mind, indicating that a service could be provided but a repair could not. That was accepted. All very "make it up as you go along" however.

Eventually, a date was confirmed. The engineer walked in, looked at the appliance and deemed it "not worth servicing".

The excuse given was variously "the surround is stuck" (false), and "customer has alternative heating" - little continuity from one Cadent rep to another.

Incidentally, the framing bracket on the corner of an insert is held together by rivets which require removal. In Cadent terms, that means "stuck". It is not an excuse to leave an active safety warning open without a proper technical assessment or conclusion.

As I also pointed out, the Cadent customer code of practice states that they are committed to clear communication and providing enhanced support to vulnerable customers, plus an ethical commitment to "doing the right thing" in addressing customer needs.

The previously noted lack of continuity and cohesion amongst representatives is in clear conflict with the commitment to provide clear communication.

Providing a false premise on which to deny a service is unethical, failed a vulnerable customer on the priority services register and has created unnecessary stress and delay to resolving the issue at hand - not cognisant of doing the right thing" at all.

I have provided opportunity for Cadent to review my formal complaint and they have continued to prevaricate.

I have contacted the Energy Ombudsman and hope to avoid any further nonsense with Cadent going forward.

I was very impressed with the work of…OMJ

I was very impressed with the work of OMJ (your Delivery Partner). In particular I found Paul Baggott (Reinstatement Surveyor) of OMJ very kind, thorough and helpful. He made sure that the gas pipe renewal work & reinstatement work at my property was of a high quality and timely.

Excellent work!

Having contacted the emergency gas service about a gas leak, an engineer from Cadent arrived within the hour. He was pleasant, polite and professional but soon decided the problem was above his remit and we would need to contact a gas engineer to complete the job. He then decided, taking into account our ages I expect (late 70's and mid 80's) that he would fix the problem there and then. It took him nearly 3 hours but he was adamant he wouldn't leave until the job was satisfactory to him and to us. This, we find, is a rare quality in workmen these days. His name was Stu Stevenson and he is an excellent employee of Cadent and ought to be acknowledged for his help and determination to see a job through especially for us 'oldies'. Thank you, Stu we are very grateful for an excellent job.

This company is amazing

This company is amazing, I still cannot believe how efficient they are. I called them near midnight on Wednesday, they arrived 30 minutes later to inspect and detected a gas leak.
They arrived before I woke up the next morning and worked all day and night until they fixed the leak. Saturday morning they filled the holes and today they came to tidy up. The staff were highly knowledgeable, helpful and polite. Thank you.

Perfect gas engineer

EonNext contacted Cadent because our gas pipework was a bit of a problem prior to a new meter being fitted.
An excellent engineer called and sorted out the problem which was very complicated - old house.
We could not have asked for a better engineer. He was patient and helpful. Thank you.

The Cadent A team service

The Cadent Team consisting of Harry and two Dan's, called to move my gas meter on thursday. They worked tirelessly until the job was completed.They overcame a problem with the water service which was very close to the gas pipe.Their job completed i was advised that another team filled in the hole and repaired the drive.
To my surprise on the following day this happened.
The whole experience was first class, i'm so pleased to right this review.
