Used this company to service my Warmflow boiler and the engineer replaced a gasket, first without advising me of this and second, incorrectly. This caused my boiler to continuously cut out so engineer came back out however he couldn't find reason why. A more senior engineer came out to look and also couldn't find the reason so he advised he would order a snorkel as he didn't know what else it could be and left the boiler exposed to the elements. Boiler then stopped working altogether leaving me with no heating or hot water. I called and advised I have a 12 week old baby at home and needed someone out however they didn't have anyone who dealt with oil until the next day. I said I'd need to instruct another company and would bill them however the manager told me 'to do that then' and hung up on me. Further calls to the owner gif worse telling us it was our fault and he wasn't sending anyone. We moved out for the night until another company came and diagnosed the gasket had been fitted incorrectly, so replaced it in minutes. I've never been spoken to and lied about the way this company has.

BUSINESS RESPONSE: As always with a negative review there are two sides to the story and two versions of events, here's a brief run down of how things went from our side which perhaps wasn't our finest hour but we've done everything we can to try and resolve the issues since. Nobody's perfect and we are all only human after all.

We were called out to this property to carry out a boiler service and to the report of an oil leak. We sorted the oil leak, serviced the boiler but found that a gasket had deteriorated and fell to pieces when we opened up the boiler door so we had to replace it. There were problems with the boiler after that which we had assumed was down to lack of maintenance of the boiler as we had been told it hadn't been serviced for 5 years when it should be carried out once a year. Under these circumstances with lack of maintenance on an oil boiler, soot can build up inside the boiler at hard to reach areas and effect combustion which we have seen many times before and can be tricky to resolve. The previous gasket was also damaged before we attended so it wasn't quite right before we started so this was how we seen the situation with the boiler at that time. We thought there was something else going on with it causing the issues and caused by lack of maintenance. We had left the boiler working although not operating as it should with it cutting out periodically but the customer had heating and hot water on our last visit and had advised we would return as soon as we had a solution. The next day the customer reported that they had no heating or water, the senior engineer who had been dealing with this job was on holiday that day unfortunately and we wanted to keep him being the engineer who attended for continuity reasons so offered a next day appointment. The customer wasn't too happy with this and a bit of arguing started during which we said we'd do what we can to get an engineer out later that day. Stress levels became high on both sides of the phone call and things escalated quite quickly which ended in the client stating they would get someone else. We then had a few emails back and forth arguing a few points and then received the report that they had instructed another company to attend who had advised that we had fitted the gasket incorrectly and that was the cause of the issue. On receiving this information we apologised to the client, credited the invoice we had sent them for the boiler service and offered to cover the cost for the repairs carried out by the other company. Our engineers have installed this specific seal to this model of boiler many times before without any problems so it has been a bit of a strange one for us to say the least. The engineers who attended are very good and very experienced, but it could be that they both made a mistake here and we offer our apologies once again if that is the case.

Whilst I had a morning appointment booked, the engineer did not arrive until early afternoon which I understand was because of two other earlier appointments had run over time. Had a leak in bathroom within the vanity unit. The two drawers of the unit were expertly removed and replaced and the leak was made good. My only slight disappointment was that shoe protectors could have been worn straight away rather than when a bit of a mess had developed. However, the mess was cleaned up before leaving the job which was good to see. Overall, this was my first experience with McRoberts and I would definitely recommend. Was given a quote before the job was undertaken and there were no nasty surprises as the cost matched the quote.

The service, knowledge and professionalism at McRoberts is exceptional. Their prices are fair and I have not had a quote where I have felt it was too expensive. As a landlord , the value McRoberts bring to my business is immense, they deal with the logistic and liaise with tenants, removing the management stress from me. I trust McRoberts judgement and know they will deliver the job without issues, to a high standard. Since using McRoberts I have had them replace two boilers, re-plumb the systems, rectify poor workmanship from another contractor and do landlord gas safety checks. I will continue to use their services and highly recommend them to any other business or individual.

I had my old boiler removed and a new boiler installed to another area of the house also, six new radiators also installed.

From the first initial meeting with Richard and then communicating with Susan, any worries or apprehensions I had were explained to me, nothing was a bother.

I would recommend this company. Why ? …because they listen as well as hear.
If you haven’t heard this in a wee while Well Done ( to you both )

The engineer serviced our boiler which was 5 years old and never previously serviced. He was assisted by a colleague.
The attention to detail and meticulous approach to the task demonstrated a high level of knowledge and gave me confidence that the service would be carried out to a good standard.
The engineer and his assistant was courteous and professional throughout and was very patient with my questions and gave clear explanations.
Mr T. Davidson is an asset to McRoberts.
