“Worst experience ever! Never even think of calling this company. Just had an engineer at the property for boiler repair. He did not do any repair work but wanted to quote us for a new boiler. The boiler is insured by British Gas, but he still got it disconnected and continued threatening us one way or other. And billed us for 2 hours, doing nothing but waiting for another engineer to come. Disgusting!”

“I asked Plumbingforce to check a boiler for a gas check.I was told the call out price and the extra costs if further work was agreed and carried out. I was informed that the boiler and gas fire were unsafe to work on and needed replacement and that a new boiler would cost £4 - £5k. I get all that and understand that gas appliances go obsolete and too expensive to repair. My disappointment was that that they then charged me for 2 hours servicing a boiler that they said was unsafe to work on and later admitted that the engineer had actually been on site for 1 hour & 47 mins, doing what I am not sure. I later had the boiler replaced for £2400 by a n other plumber. I was fobbed off by numerous people at their office when I queried the charge and eventually they agreed to reimburse me half an hours time = £59. Had the second hour been refunded as I had asked I would have had no issue but to have to justify and question the abilities of an engineer, over a period of weeks, at a supposedly reputable company left a very sour taste”

“The bathroom was overflowing due to leaking pipes so we called a plumber to fix it. They were quick to respond and send someone to our place. The plumber was quick with his hands and in no time he managed to fix the leaks! I was very impressed with his work which is why I gave this company 5 stars for their excellent work.”

“Waited 2 hours and then they rang and cancelled. Some of the Customer Service team were clueless!”

“Dreadful service. I booked a plumber, and had to take the day off work to wait in for them. I was informed I would receive a call half an hour before they arrived, to let me know roughly when they would be coming. At 5.59pm I was called to say they were not coming. I have now wasted a day of holiday to sit in for no-one...I still have the plumbing issue, and no-one will come evenings or weekends so I would have to take another day of holiday to wait in again (and live with the plumbing problem until next week because the weekend is here). Unfortunately I was told there was no guarantee if I did that, that the plumber would actually come if I re-booked it. This is NOT a good service especially at these prices. Very dissatisfied and would not recommend.”

“A lot of things went wrong. Initial appointment booked for between 3pm to 6pm. Nobody turned up and not even a phone call. Said someone will be there the next day. Engineer turned up the next day. For something that should have taken 15 mins to diagnose took almost 45 mins. Got the feeling that the guy was just wasting time. A part was identified that needed replacing on the hot water cylinder. Discussed with the guy and told him that they should get it ordered. He agreed. The same day I phoned the company and they said I was supposed to order the part, I told them that it would be better they ordered so that we get the right part. They agreed to call the engineer and get the details and will order. After several calls there was still no response and part was not ordered. They never return calls and after 2 days there is still no response. A totally incompetent company that I would not recommend.”

“Please read the reviews of this company. Called out an engineer to look at my dripping shower and as soon as he looked at it he said this is going to be expensive. I told him I'd already called the manufacturer and told him the price they had quoted, he then said he couldn't beat it. Cost me £118.80 for him to tell me that. Please read the reviews before using this company. Now seeking legal advice.”

“Fantastic job! We had a radiator leak and the plumber arrived within an hour to fix it. Called other plumbers but this was the only one who complied to our request. Very professional, fast and did a clean job.”

“Engineer serviced the boiler and the radiators and left with everything working. A few days later some of the radiators stopped working but Plumbing Force are saying there will be another charge to send an engineer out as the work is not guaranteed. This response having spent over £1,000 on plumbing work with Plumbing Force over the past 2 months! I will be going to British Gas now who guarantee their work.”

“I rang them for a heating issue and they said somebody would be with me within 3 hours. They then rang me later to say the engineer couldn't come out that day, and it would be between 9-00 and 13-00 the next day. They then rang me at 9-35 the next day to say they couldn't get anybody to me for at least a few day and that was it, goodbye. They got one star for having the decency to ring and cancel.”

“I really appreciate the work done by the plumber from this company. He was very knowledgeable and works fast. Fixed the leaks like it was just a piece of cake! Price is fair and reasonable. Will call them again if another problem occurs.”

“Paid double what any other company was quoting - was happy to do this because i thought they would be quick and we are freezing! The engineer came out - read the manual i left out on the boiler for about 15 mins and said they had to order a part....so that was 99+ VAT (Which i could have told them myself from reading the manual this was the issue). 3 days later after waiting and freezing we were assured we would have a morning appointment with an engineer....they called to say they'd late and through the day kept pushing back and back....bear in mind i paid about 250 for a part that cost 60 AND the additional hours labor to fit it UP FRONT (so they have my money already at this point)....they kept telling me for hours i was next on the list that day and then come to end of day to tell me that they arent coming...something is fishy here...! so my kids and i are left to freeze yet another day....now its the next day and one would hope i'd be first on the list having been bumped but that is not the case...still no news and yes they've got my money still! I asked about a refund and there are NO humans or complaints department you can speak to ... HA! you have to send an email and hope they do something (confident they will not....!) this is by far the WORST service i have ever encountered and they are NOT fast so not worth the double price vs. all other vendors doing the same ....STEER CLEAR OF THESE THIEVES AT ALL COST”

“I rang the company as they advertised a 1-3 hr response in my area. I have a leaking pipe. They booked an appointment and gave me a time frame between 3-6 pm. I had to take time off work but as it was a friday i didnt have time to ring around to find someone. I had already paid in advance by credit card on booking. I waited in only to receive a call at 5 pm to say they had over run and now would not be able to get to me until the morning. Late friday afternoon means i stand little chance of finding some one else. I have had to switch off the water supply and considering they offer an emergency service i dont think this is good enough!”

“Very poor customer service. They were fast to take the payment in advance. But despite me calling and emailing their poor customer service department they still have not sent me a copy of the gas safety certificate or a receipt for my payment. Basic stuff I should not need to be spending my time chasing this. Will not use plumbing force again.”

“Shocking service, was supposed to arrive between 9am and 12, received a text could be before 3pm, then when we called it could be before 6pm - After speaking to a terrible customer services girl who had NO clue on customer services, they refused to let me speak to a manager and after taking our money told us it hadn't been taken even though it had. After a very frustrating day and calls back and forth the so called customer service girl cancelled the whole appointment and refused to allow me to speak to anyone STAY AWAY WORST COMPANY !!!!”
