Scolding hot shower repair.

Olushola was very helpful.
Booked my appointment for my repair without any problem.
Other than having to wait a month, which is by no means anything to do with the person talking to me.

Had a blocked tap and called clarion…

Had a blocked tap and called clarion response at 9am, for a plumber by 9.30am Christopher knocked on the door, he fixed the blockage, changed the shower hose and head, and got everything working beautiful by 10am. You can't fault this guy, he's knows his stuff, because the plumber that came before him, couldn't fix it, and there were two of them.
I highly recommend Christopher especially, he's polite. professional, and very respectful to you and your home, as he wears plastic shoe covering to not dirty your floor
If i could give 10☆ i would!!
Great service, thanks Christopher and clarion response for getting us out a plumber and sorting out the problem!!

This housing association rubbish

This housing association is not worth joining. If you are offered a home with Clarion Housing managing the property DO NOT AGREE & ACCEPT! Absolutely rubbish.
The back garden PVC door's latch broke inside and won't open. This whole summers heatwave my mother still suffering from hot flushes from menopause is suffering. My pensioner father has suffered too, he is a type1 diabetic and also suffers from high blood pressure. He usually sits in the garden to cool off, especially in the evening. But he has not been able to since 4th June 2026...it is now 10th August 2026, another heatwave week. A lot more electrics had to be used using fans meaning higher electric bills will be due in their pension age! Laundry has not been able to be pug out.
We have called countless times and there is no empathy, no push for the contractor to come and sort the door out. One contractor came and could not open the door, said someone else with more experience dealing with PVC doors needs to come and he went back reported it. Weeks pass and after calling again several times another contractor was sent and he also had no clue how to sort this issue out and again gone back to report.
Again my sister in law called in behalf of my parents but they did not listen to her nor did they ask to speak to my parents to give permission to her to talk for them. Sfter she enquired, and they hung up on her twice and left her on hold for ages. The women she spoke to "Jasmine" said the same thing other have said wait for a week and we will get back to you! Which never happened and again will not happen! Instead after all the conversation she said she will no longer speak to her as she is not living in this property! How ridiculous! I will now reported to UK Watchdog or someone else. Compensation for my parents electric being used needs to be given!

Good morning Jezz - We are truly sorry to hear about the significant distress and inconvenience your parents have experienced with the broken garden door, especially during the heatwave. We understand how frustrating it must be for them, and for you and your sister-in-law, to have this issue persist for so long without resolution. We deeply regret the lack of effective support and communication you have encountered. We will escalate this to our repairs team to investigate the delays, the multiple unsuccessful contractor visits, and the handling of your sister-in-law's calls. We are committed to finding a swift and appropriate resolution for your parents - Kind regards, Kate.

I put in 5 repairs in June and to date only 1 has been completed! I looked on my account just now and it says the jobs have been done - *THEY MOST CERTAINLY HAVE NOT!*. I’m a disabled tenant, with carers, have lived in this house for 15 years, I pay my rent on time, don’t cause problems and love this house, the least you can do is be decent landlords. Shame on you.

Advisor good ... Clarion horrible

The advisor was very clear with the limited information that they had. But the time and effort a vulnerable or disabled person has to work or push which can make us more ill is totally unfair when they have help for us sort of people

Absolutely shocking customer service…

Absolutely shocking customer service from clarion. I cannot wait to leave them as a tenant. They are the worst housing association in the UK. All I am asking is for them to complete a simple process and it is taking so long. Staff are rude to me for chasing it up and I feel like they are being difficult on purpose. I would never recommend them to anyone. Appalling.
