Home Air Conditioning Unit Installed

The installation of an air conditioning unit at my home was carried out promptly, efficiently and with minimal disruption to my day by Custom Heat. The 3 chaps involved set about their task very swiftly after confirming the job notes with me.
They were clean and tidy; they cleared up at the end of the day with the unit in place.
I’m very pleased with the whole process from quotation to installation and will be happy to recommend Custom Heat to family and friends.

Efficient and trustworthy service

Efficient and trustworthy service

I filled in a form online and a staff contacted me and came to have a survey the next day.
They have 6 teams of installers so we have our air conditioners installed within 2 weeks.
The installers were very punctual, arriving before 8:00am as promised and worked till after 5:00pm. They almost didn’t break except for lunch.
Customer hotline is always available, which made me feel very secured.
Even more surprising, they did everything within taking any deposit. We paid only after the project was complete.
Impressive!

What a fantastic review — thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience. It's great to hear the installation was completed to schedule and that our team's punctuality and commitment on the day made such a positive impression. The no-deposit approach is something we're proud of, as we believe you should only pay once the work is done to your satisfaction.

Gas boiler service by Rob

Rob arrived promptly at his rescheduled time. He was very thorough in carrying out the gas boiler service and because I was nosey explained most of the operations. Put me right on the carbon monoxide detector. In fact he did a good job alround, went into more detail than previous service calls.

Good management and trust

When you pickup the phone and ask for help, you know that the person at the other end is going to deliver. Also, the patience of the engineer who attends will want to understand the issue(s), and will do their best to fix whatever has gone wrong. Or, they will inform you of the reason why thing cannot be sorted that day. This service relies on good management and trust.

It's genuinely pleasing to hear that both the team on the phones and the engineer on the day gave you the confidence and clarity you needed.
