Hi Barry,

Thank you for your wonderful review!

We're glad to hear that you found our engineer to be polite, efficient, and delivered great workmanship. It's also fantastic to know they left everything clean and tidy afterwards, that's exactly the level of service we strive to provide.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and look forward to helping you again in the future.

Kind regards,

Do not use for EICR

I have used Pimlico Plumbers several times over the years for various bits of work and the quality of the work is great and the tradesmen are excellent. You obviously pay a premium for the service but this is generally acceptable because the work is done by reliable professionals and promptly.

However, I have recently had the worst experience with them regarding an EICR I needed to have done. The engineer came and fixed issues with my electrical installation and carried out the testing required to issue an EICR certificate. I had no issues with the engineer themselves and they instructed me that the property was compliant and that a certificate would shortly be issued.

This was almost two weeks ago now and I am still waiting on them to issue the certificate. I have tried multiple times to chase this and get no answer or timeline on the matter. The customer service tell me the same thing every time over the phone and I receive no replies to my emails. They also give me no avenue to escalate or raise a complaint leaving me stuck in the situation.

As most people who have an EICR done it is typically to fulfill compliance obligations related to letting or selling a property and it is incredibly frustrating to have it delayed by something that typically takes a matter of hours or days.

Hi Oliver,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you've had positive experiences with our team in the past and that you were happy with the quality of work carried out by our engineer. However, we're very sorry to learn that your experience following your EICR inspection has not met the standard you rightly expected.

We appreciate how important receiving your Electrical Installation Condition Report is, particularly where it is required to meet letting or property compliance obligations.

As outlined on our website, following the inspection you will receive a full seven-page report together with a quotation for any remedial works, where applicable. While the paperwork can take up to 28 days to process, we always aim to complete and issue reports as quickly as possible.

That said, we recognise that the communication around your report has fallen short. You should have been kept informed of the expected timescales, and we're sorry this didn't happen.

We have received your email and have now raised a formal complaint to investigate why communication broke down and to ensure your concerns are fully reviewed. A member of our Customer Services team will be in contact with you as soon as possible with an update.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve both our communication and the service we provide.

Kind regards,
The Pimlico Team

I had a curtain pole fall down with an attached baton.
I booked for a tradesman to come and affix the same curtain pole to the wall a new baton and mend a section of plaster around 2x2inches.
The tradesman didn't arrive with the wood, so I had to wait for him to source, drive and return with it [all on the clock]. Total cost of installation £507 + the £36 wood on top. For ONE CURTAIN POLE. Insane. I called them to query this insane price still waiting for a call back.

Hi Gen,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you found our engineer to be lovely, but we're sorry to learn that you were disappointed with the overall experience and the process.

We appreciate that it can be frustrating when additional materials are required during an appointment. Our engineers carry a selection of commonly used materials in their vans; however, it's not possible to stock every type of timber, fitting, or material needed for the wide variety of jobs, properties, and circumstances we attend.

This is one of the reasons we carry out an initial assessment. It allows us to identify exactly what materials are required so that the correct items are sourced, helping to avoid unnecessary costs, delays, or the use of unsuitable materials. Where materials are not available in the van, time spent sourcing them does form part of the appointment.

We understand your concerns regarding the overall cost, and we're sorry this did not meet your expectations. We can see that you've already been in touch with us, and if your query remains open, a member of our team will be in contact as soon as possible to discuss your concerns.

Thank you again for your feedback, as it helps us continue to review and improve the service we provide.

Kind regards,
The Pimlico Team

Exceptionally knowledgeable Builders!

Benjamin called me a couple of hours earlier and explained what time he will be arriving, he arrived on time, he had a look at all the jobs I wanted to have done. I asked him so many questions about the works as the structure of my house is new built and mainly has stud walls and I was worried about something going wrong or the works not being up to my high standards. I was blown away at the ease with which Benjamin explained everything and put my mind at ease and he even gave me a quote within 10 minutes and I have booked him! I found Benjamin to be thoroughly knowledgeable about the structures and works and materials about new builts as well as the traditional Victorian houses which made me feel that I have chosen the right builder and the right company!

I wouldn’t trust Pimlico Plumbers to…

I wouldn’t trust Pimlico Plumbers to service a boiler again.

I paid for a boiler service and was told everything was safe and in good working order. Six months later, another Gas Safe engineer discovered that my boiler was missing a pressure relief valve – a significant safety component that Pimlico have since admitted should have been identified during their service.

Pimlico refunded the cost of the service, acknowledging that they failed to spot the missing valve, but refused to contribute towards the remedial work that followed.

My biggest concern isn’t the money – it’s the fact that I was told my boiler was safe when it wasn’t. If a boiler service fails to identify a missing safety component, what exactly are you paying for? I unknowingly continued using the boiler for six months believing it had been professionally checked. And it would have been far longer had a gas smell not started from it, causing me to get the boiler checked again.

My experience suggests the quality of service is inconsistent. I’ve had one excellent engineer from Pimlico Plumbers (Tom), but unfortunately this experience showed that others can be negligent. When it comes to gas appliances, consistency and attention to detail are essential, and this experience has left me with little confidence in relying on their boiler servicing in future.

Dear Bonnie,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are genuinely sorry that your experience did not meet the standard you rightly expected from us.

Following your complaint, we carried out a full review and acknowledged that the missing safety valve discharge pipe should have been identified during the boiler service. We apologised for this oversight and have refunded the full cost of the original service to reflect that.

We're pleased to hear your positive comments about Tom and the service he provided during the subsequent visit. We'll ensure your feedback is passed on to him.

We appreciate your concerns regarding the repairs that followed. After carefully reviewing the circumstances, our position remains that whilst the missing discharge pipe should have been identified during the earlier service, the remedial works undertaken would still have been required regardless of when they were identified. For that reason, we were unable to offer a contribution towards the repair costs.

We understand that this has affected your confidence in our service, and we regret that this was your experience. Your feedback has been taken seriously and shared internally as part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining the high standards our customers expect.

Kind regards,
Pimlico Plumbers
