Customer Reviews
Repair Underfloor heating by fitting a new pump
Kevin diagnosed the problem and fitted a new pump. Underfloor heating now working perfectly. Job was carried out to a high standard. Prior to starting work I agreed labour and materials costs. However, after he sent the invoice for the agreed costs I queried the materials cost because I had found the pump he had fitted widely available for £200 less than the materials costs he charged. I asked him politely to give me a breakdown of materials costs. He refused to provide this. His work was was of a high standard but I would urge you to ask for a breakdown of materials costs before starting.
Washing machine drainage issue
I've known Kevin 18mths now, in 2 flats. He's always been friendly, approachable, efficient and tidy in his work. He's done blocked exterior pipes; radiator service; boiler upgrade and now fixed this blocked washing machine in typical methodical fashion. High-quality knowledge and workmanship. Highly-recommended.
Not impressed!
My boiler started leaking badly a week before Christmas 2022 and I was desperate to find a boiler engineer. When I called this company, provided a video of the leak and necessary information about the boiler. The engineer informed me that he would visit to check out the boiler on the 21/12/22. I provide my address, but didn't hear back to confirm, in fact despite messaging the engineer again I never heard back from, so it was very annoying and distressing to be left in the lurch like this, to find another company so close to Christmas. Not impressed i.E. Will consider to using them in future.
To replace a burst outside pipe.
Found Kevin to be very friendly, professional and honest, he replaced the burst pipe in little time, and assured me to contact him if there was any further issues.
Boiler install
Kevin came as a recommendation and very glad we went with him. We had untold amounts of issues around the house and each one Kevin had a resolution for. From the heating tapping at night to some radiators not getting hot. Our boiler had stopped working so Kevin made some recommendations for cost effective and economical replacments. He did a full power flush aswell as replacing the boiler and all the other bits and pieces we through at him. Aswell as being clean and tidy he explained everything he was doing in basic terminology so I would understand. I Highly recommended Kevin.
Diagnose problem with water storage heater, and replace faulty motor
Kevin responded to our enquiry quickly and booked us in as soon as possible. He carefully diagnosed and fixed the motor on our heater, explaining everything to me as he did so. Kev has a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm about his trade which makes him an excellent engineer - I will definitely be using Elsby Engineering again, and highly recommend this service.
