Reviewers of Busy Bee Repairs Ltd often describe Sonny as friendly, professional and knowledgeable, and many say he explained the fault and the work clearly. Customers repeatedly report that appointments were arranged quickly, with several saying Sonny came the same day or the next day. Reviewers also often mention that he gave useful advice on using and looking after appliances. Nine reviews describe problems: one reported a missed call-back, another a no-show, and others said the fault was not fixed or that they felt pushed to buy a new appliance instead. One reviewer said Sonny talked over them and did not listen to what they had already tried.
I contacted Sonny at Busy Bee Repairs on Monday after my washing machine broke down. He came out the same day. After checking my old machine, which was over 20 years old, he let us know it wasn't repairable. He also gave helpful advice on choosing a new one. Once our replacement was delivered, he came back to install it, helped dispose of the old machine, fitted the new one, tested it, and explained everything clearly to me and my wife, including the paperwork and guarantee. He was professional, friendly and really helpful throughout and the price for fitting was reasonable. We're really grateful he took the time to make sure everything was working properly and that we understood how to use it. Highly recommend Sonny at Busy Bee Repairs.
From my phone call to repair, managed to get my washing machine running again within 24 hours! Excellent service, reliable company & would highly recommend! Thank you!!
Sunny was a great engineer, knowledgeable and helpful. He was punctual and polite and the Busy Bees admin kept us well informed. Job was done quickly and he left everything tidy. Would highly recommend 👍
Sonia contacted me based on my request on CheckATrade. The communication was very clear and Sonny was able to come and fix my oven the next day. He quickly identified the problem and fixed it. He also cleaned up the oven bulb while he was getting the heating element replaced. I received a warranty of 6 months as well. I will definitely recommend Busy Bees for their appliance repair service.
We used Busy Bees yesterday and were very impressed. The chap called before coming round and he managed to fit us in on a Saturday, which was brilliant. He did the work to the oven and had the element, bulb and. switch to fix all three things our 14 year old Neff had wrong with it. Excellent engineer who really knows his stuff. Fair price and clean, methodical worker who explains what needs doing and gives you options with clear prices. Would use again as people like this are rare!
Sonia was very polite and helpful on the phone and replied to my message within 24 hours. I called to say I was at home and with 30 minutes Sonny turned up. He was very efficient and explained everything to me. He gave me some good advice about using my cooker in future. Very very pleased with the service!
Fantastic service, fixed the broken door on the dishwasher, gave it a deep clean and some great advice on maintenance
Sonny went above and beyond helping me this morning with my washing machine. Not only did he explain everything clearly, he gave me some tips on how to prevent further problems in the future. He was very professional, respectful and understanding, given I had my baby with me as well. I found Busy Bees Repairs Ltd through google based on their reviews and I can confidently say the experience has been very impressive. Also a big thank you to Sonia who kindly organised the visit very promptly.
Leaking dishwasher . Sonia was brilliant in booking repair, and checking in with times to make sure still convenient. Sonny arrived on time , explained the problem , fixed it & demonstrated how to troubleshoot any future issues . All working fine. However , next day the dishwasher had no power. Sonny came back out to find the power cable wasn’t live anymore. Luckily for me he had a new one which solved the problem. As an added bonus he also levelled up my washing machine , so no more working its way across the kitchen. Brilliant & reliable service for a competitive price.
Sonny came out and made sure he stayed to fix all the problems that came up, he was super helpful and informative explaining everything he was doing and gave us good options.
My washing machine seal gave up so I called for a repair. Got an appointment the next day and on the day was given a 4 hour window for the engineer to arrive. Sonny arrived on schedule and replaced the seal, cleaned the machine up and replaced some rusty screws. He explained the issues and was informative and friendly. Good price for the fix, considering the other issues.
Sonny the engineer did an excellent job with our oven repairs. It was a great experience from calling the team who recommended and discussed a time suitable with me. Job was not rushed and following the diagnostics we discussed the jobs required before proceeding. He also helped beyond the job required taking time to listen to our other needs. Thank you!
Washing machine had an error code. Wasn't spinning/draining. Sunny came within 1 hr of calling as I am local. He diagnosed the issue and advised washing machine needs replacement. He found a new Bosch WM at a great price. Great prompt service.
It's hard enough to find anybody to do anything! Finding somebody good is a miracle. These people were spot-on from the outset. They made their charges clear, they communicated well, they made the appointment with the tenant direct and were there the next day. The engineer sent photos of the issue and the work he did. He didn't fit unnecessary replacement parts and left the area clean & tidy. Miracles do happen!!
Top-tier service from start to finish. Sonia was professional and to the point, securing me a next-day appointment that fit my timetable perfectly. Sunny turned up prepared with the right part to fix a moisture-related short. What I appreciated most was the honesty: given the oven is 10 years old, Sunny advised that if the repair had been more complex, he would have recommended a replacement rather than an expensive fix. Friendly, knowledgeable, and saved me the cost of a new oven.
Sonny was brilliant - he was friendly, got back to me straight away, and was professional in every aspect of the repair of our washing machine. He got on with the job and all was sorted quickly, and he was keen to provide advice on how to prevent future callouts. I would highly recommend Busy Bee Repairs!
Really pleased with the service. Sonia who i spoke to over the phone was lovely. Sonny who came out to repair our oven was brilliant. He came across a couple of issues but didn't give in until the problem was fixed. He gave us options to find the cheapest solution too. Would definitely recommend!
I've been using Busy Bees for 10+ years. He's incredibly knowledgable and friendly, and diagnosed the issue over the phone with a fix 3 days later. True to his word and always arrives when he says he will. I can't recommend Sonny enough, you're a superstar.
Sonny came and fixed our broken oven in under 40 mins and also replaced some broken screws for free. He gave some great advice for aftercare and gave details for someone who can provide deep cleans. Very happy with the service and would definitely recommend.
I’m not usually one to write reviews but the service was outstanding. Within less than an hour they had come out and I had the old machine removed, a great deal on a new one, machine fully installed along with a full tutorial. I saved a lot of money, the service was impeccable, the staff were excellent and very, very nice to deal with. I will definitely keep their contact and will recommend to anyone. Thank you very much for all your help!
After having problems with our oven, Sonny arrived the following day and provided advice on what the issue might be but unfortunately due to the age of the oven the required parts were no longer available. Sonny helped me choose a replacement oven, collected it, and fitted it a few hours later on the same day. Very happy with the service received!
Fantastic service from Both Sonia in the office and Sonny the Oven Repair technician. Very prompt response and managed to get us in last minute as we had a stressful deadline. Sonny was very friendly, helpful and managed to resolve the issue. Would recommend and will use again!
Sonny arrived on time and provided fantastic service. In addition to fixing the problematic electrics in our oven, he additionally fixed the buzzing noise that we thought was part of the oven. He has great knowledge and greater care for the customer. He arrived the day after the phone call and delivered service with a smile Sonia on the phone was prompt and kind with her calls. Couldn’t regard Busy Bee highly enough’
Washing machine was not working. Sonny came next day to have a look and quote me for the repairs. In the end I decided to buy a new washing machine. Sonny was extremely helpful, with it being bank holiday weekend. I wouldn’t have got delivery until later on in the week. So he kindly removed my old washing machine and went to pick up the new one, as well as install it and test it was all working fine. He showed a demo of how to use the washing machine, all on the SAME DAY! Thank you for all your help and effort. I would still be without a washing machine over the bank holiday weekend.
Washing machine had an error code. Wasn't spinning/draining. Sunni came promptly on Saturday as it was an 'emergency'. There was good communication prior to his arrival. The job was done expertly with clear explanation throughout. I would thoroughly recommend Sunni to anyone in need.
Fast response and experienced. Solved the problem and quoted a fair price on two occasions. Good tradesmen.
Called Busy Bees about leaking pipe. Sonny came out and found it wasn't the machine but the plumbing. Sonny didn't leave me high and dry Sonny sorted it out for me. Thank you
Booked on phone and technician turned up at the right time and investigated and repaired the fault on my dishwasher. Very satisfied with a job well done 👍🏼
Very helpful and speedy repair service for my oven called on Thursday, part was ordered and then fitted on the Monday, great service
Excellent service, turned up exactly when stated and kept me updated throughout. Gave a price and stuck to it and was so efficient and knowledgable.
The service was fantastic from start to finish! Sonia in the office promptly gathered all the details about our tripping oven and ensured seamless communication. Sonny arrived within three hours of my initial enquiry, swiftly identified the root cause, and clearly outlined the steps needed to resolve it. His expertise was invaluable, saving me from the expense of a new purchase. He even went above and beyond by tackling a few additional tasks, which was greatly appreciated. Top-notch service— highly recommended!
Sonny was called out to advise us on our Smeg cooker as the small oven has not worked since we moved in (previous owners told us it had never worked!) Sonny was incredibly professional and honest - fantastic service as he gave us various options in case his incline was wrong. It wasn't! He sorted the issue, despite it being repetitive and time consuming. Huge gratitude for taking the time to test out your theory Sonny! You saved Christmas! A thorough job done and we would not hesitate to call you in the future. Thank you to Sonja too who coordinated the service! Would highly recommend Busy Bees Repairs Ltd to anyone!
Sony arrived to sort out my dish washer, talked me through all he did and although he could not repair it, he was able to source me a new one and fit it the same day. Brilliant thank you, would definitely recommend him.
Great service from the moment I called the office to when Sunny arrived the following day to fix the issue. I cannot recommend this company enough. The fault was quickly discovered and was told that a fix could be put in place to avoid ordering and paying for a new part which saved me over £180. I will not be using anyone else for any future appliance faults. 5 Stars ⭐️
My old smeg oven continues to give trouble. Sonny keeps it going. Quick service and he does try to keep the costs down.
Thank you Sonny for such a thorough service. Aside from a faulty fan, the oven door was also loose and this was fixed too. 5 star service -will definitely be using this company again.
Excellent service, Sonny arrived on time, friendly efficient and thorough. Thank you
Sonny did an amazing job! He's not only fixed the original issue but also checked over our tumble dryer and identified additional issues which he also fixed. We now have a fully functioning temble dryer finally! Thank you so much Sonny, we will defo be continuing to call Sonny for all appliance issues. Don't bother calling anyone else but Busy Bees Repairs!
Our electric oven stopped heating up so I contacted Busy Bee who responded promptly and explained next steps. Sonny came out a time which was convenient for me. He is clearly experienced and easily diagnosed the fault and replaced the part which he had in the van. He kept me informed of the checks he was doing, he took his time and ensured the oven was in working order. He cleaned parts of the oven which are not accessible as well as around his work area. The repair saved me the cost of a new oven. He was very polite and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend and use Busy Bee again in future.
Excellent service from this company. Prompt, very knowledgeable and competent service from Sonny. He was very friendly and I would definitely use thus company again and recommend him. Another bonus- did not leave a mess!! Thank you
Came out same day and got us up and running again. Very transparent and fair with pricing. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Top service.
First class communication, expertise and workmanship. I can’t fault the service. Diagnosis, sourcing an awkward part and repairing my cooker really quickly and efficiently.
Busy Bee recommended by a friend. Sonny arrived next day. Very knowledgeable and soon identified and repaired the problem with our washing machine. Would certainly recommend.
I have a Samsung washing machine, myself and my husband had called around to a few independent repairers who advised they would not look at the washing machine as it required a samsung specialist. Before calling samsung we called busy bees repairs who took all our details and informed us of the call out charges etc and arranged an appointment for the very next day which was fantastic as I had asked a few others who advised they couldn't come out for a few days. Sonny arrived promptly the next day looked at the washing machine and identified the problem straight away. Sonny was very informative throughout the process and explained and showed the the cause of the machine not working, he was honest throughout the process and advised he has solved the issue (jammed water pump) however as the element was overheating it would be best to replace the part, although there was no pressure to do so. He replaced the part and ran a wash before leaving to ensure that all was working as it should, 2 months later no issues. I am very happy with the price and service service provided. Thank you Sonny
We called Sonny on a Friday as we had an issue with our cooker tripping out our electricity, he called back, arranged for a visit on Monday and communicated fantastically, arrived on time and tried to solve our problem. It was more complex than initially thought and unfortunately not financially viable to fix. Sonny sourced us a new oven, picked it up and installed it for us taking away the old oven all within 5 hrs of 1st seeing the issue......service like that is hard to find and we now have a working oven and full bellies, thankyou Sonny.
Absolutely brilliant service , could not have asked for any more . Sonny was professional in every thing he did from his initial call to me to doing the job , he went out if his way and did beyond the ask , like help move the dryer and even clean it inside . Beyond 5 stars , definitely recommend Sonny and Busy Bees . Top man
This was the second time busy Bees came and repaired my washer dryer. both times they were amazing. very thorough. First time was a filter block, and the next time was a broken motor. They replaced the part promptly and didn't try it on by suggesting it was unfixable etc. The woman who rang and booked me in was helpful and went out of her way to get it done asap. It was actually on the same day. very friendly, very professional and very trustworthy.
Busy Bee came round to repair my oven the same day I reported it. It needed a new part which arrived within two days, and they had it fitted within half an hour. Really friendly, excellent service, could not be faulted.
Sonny provided excellent service by fixing my dryer and ensuring all settings were functioning properly. He came the next day after I had inquired about the issue. His friendly demeanor and local expertise make him highly recommended for any appliance repair needs. Many thanks again
Washing machine repair. Great service. Sonny was very punctual, polite and tidy
Very quick and efficient service by Sonny. Fan oven stopped working. He quickly identified the fault and replaced the element. He also made sure everything was working properly before leaving as well as cleaning everything down. Will definitely recommend to others. Thank you!
Sonny has been out to us before and we were pleased with the dishwasher repair so we got him back out again for our disgruntled dishwasher! Sonny was professional and got straight to the problem. He fixed the issue, gave tips on how to care for the machine and left us with a curtesy bottle of dishwasher grease and grime cleaner! We’d recommend Sonny at Busy Bees Repairs for all your dishwasher woes!
Rang yesterday as my built in oven was not heating, fan working and light also. Sonny arrived 9 this morning and quickly found that element needed replacing. This was done promptly and for a fair price. Sonny is helpful and cheerful and I wouldn't hesitate in using him again or recommend him
Sonny was on time, had the correct part for my Electric Oven repair. Many thanks for a job well done
I had a disaster with a burst pillow in my washing machine and was ready to buy a brand new one at huge cost. Fortunately, I called Busy Bee repair who assessed my issue over the phone and sent Sonny to fix it. Sonny patiently and professionally fixed the issue. Thank you Busy Bee Repair
Great stuff, came out really quickly in the busy holiday period. Sorted it with friendly and professional attitude. Definitely use Sonny again!
Sonny was on time, provided great service and competitively priced. Highly recommended.
Had a element fault on our fan oven, left a message through their website late last night, Sonia got in contact with me 8.30 the next morning and arranged for Sonny to to come and repair the same day. Sonny arrived promptly and informed me via telephone when he was coming, he then proceeded to fix my oven and had the part on board the van to fix there and then. He also explained everything he was doing step by step and ensured that the oven was in working order before leaving. Cannot recommend this company highly enough. Thanks Sonia and Sonny.
Got an initial call back and was told someone would call me back to help me, nobody called. I went somewhere else.
Washing Machine had broken down. Called Busy Bee on the Friday and Sonny came out to see me on the Tuesday. Considering other companies didn't seem too interested or didn't have any bookings they were great. Sonny kept me apprised of the repair at every step of the way. Luckily he had the same Heating element which was the fault so had it fitted. He also unblocked and clean the pipes of where the conditioner goes down and gave me tips on how to keep it working properly. Defo will use Sonny and Busy Bee again if God Forbid something else breaks down. Awesome service - Top bloke.
Thank you to Sonny for coming out on a Saturday to fix my cooker!!!! Friendly professional and efficient. Sonya in the office kept me informed and up to date. Thank you busy bees 🐝 happy customer
Yet again, Sonny has helped us out! This time our condenser drier wouldn't work and he fixed it within an hour. He gave tips and advice on drier and washing machine maintenance - and even popped home again (without charge) for another small matter. Honest and reliable, highly recommended. Rahil
Nobody contacted us after text and phone message.
Very quick in answering phone, next day engineer came out, unfortunately my dishwasher was too expensive to repair. Sunny the engineer was very proffessional and gave me advise and prices of new ones which he ordered for me ,picked it up and fitted same day. Excellant service
I have no hesitation in recommending Busy Bees Repairs Ltd, and Sonny in particular, for any white goods repairs and work. They are our first (and last) call in the event of a breakdown or malfunction and they never disappoint. Sonny aims to get out to see you either the same, or next day and will generally try to provide a solution while on site. He has twice recommended repair/refurbishment over replacing an appliance and this has saved us a considerable amount in the long run. On two occasions now he has taken a faulty part away, repaired/refurbished it, and returned first thing in the morning to refit. Sonny is passionate about providing good customer service and going the extra mile to save you unnecessary expense and his 34 years in the business shows through in his advice and recommendations. Busy Bees’ customer support is top notch with a clear time slot provided upon first contact and good communication throughout. Busy Bees is a reassuring company to deal with at a time when you really need an appliance expert in a hurry. Definitely worth putting on speed dial.
In our experience we have always found Sonny to be extremely helpful, knowledgable and skilled in assessing the problem and offering options to resolve the issue at a very fair price. We have used him on three occasions now over the past 7 years (once for our oven and twice for the washing machine) and each time he has breathed new life into an appliance which would have otherwise been very expensive to replace. Sonny previously fixed our washing machine by replacing the motor which had failed with a refurbished one, and it lasted another 7 years without a problem! He has been back today to carry out essentially the same repair. While we would have been prepared to have bought a new one given the age of the machine - probably 20 years old - all the new washing machines now are slightly too large for the space and hinged on the ‘wrong’ side for our location, so a repair, if possible, was by far our preferred option. The assessment was made, and the motor repaired and re-fitted in less than 24 hours. I don’t know of any other service which provides this level of commitment and customer care. He also took time to clean and clear the filter and advise us on maintenance tips to prolong the life of the machine. Thank you once again Sonny for fixing our washing machine so quickly and efficiently. We are delighted with the outcome and have no hesitation in recommending.
The admin side of the service was great. We were kept informed of who would come and when. Sonny phoned about 20 minutes before he arrived to look at the integrated dishwasher. Unfortunately, our experience was not amazing. We felt talked at and Sonny didn't listen to what we had already tried. He told us it was a computer programming issue which he could t deal with. This subsequently turned out not to be true as it was a component that needed replacing. He was in such a hurry to leave he left his screwdriver behind the kickboard which he had to return for the following day. The only upside was he charged us £50 instead of £78 for the call-out and brief investigation. I am sure if he had spent more time listening and investigating what was wrong he may well have fixed it.
Great service from Sonny, he arrived promptly, within the quoted time slot, and was very professional & friendly, walking me through what had gone wrong with the oven (the element needed replacing, and the light bulb was out) and fixing it quickly. He even cleaned all the detritus which had accumulated in the gap in the oven door. Also worth saying Sonia was very helpful in arranging the callout! I would recommend this company to anyone and will certainly be using them in the future.
Great service, professional, and efficient. Fair price. Sonny the engineer and Sonia on the phone were very helpful. I would highly recommend.
My Parent’s oven stopped working on Sunday. I googled oven repair business's & Busy Bee Repairs came up. I checked their rating & read the reviews & decided to ring them as all reviews and ratings were good. I spoke to Sonia who was very professional, polite & friendly. She called me back to confirm when she said she would & then rang me to confirm the gentleman's name who was attending repair was called Sonny & roughly what time he would arrive. Sure enough, he arrived on time & within half hour, diagnosed the problem, got new part from the van and fitted new part. Was brilliant especially because I thought we would have to wait for new part to be ordered. Sonny also explained everything to me what he was doing. The customer service we received was outstanding, efficient & professional. Could not believe how quickly he resolved the issue. Totally recommend .
Booked and within 2 days the problem was diagnosed and fixed! Thanks to Sonia I believe who took my call and Sonny for being very thorough and identifying the problem, as well as fixing it within the hour!
Excellent service provided by Busy Bee team today for a broken washing machine. Called at 1100, all fixed by 1400. Superb service by Sonia accomodating my time frames, and polite and thorough service by Sonny. Cannot recommend more highly
Sunny has been twice now for 2 different appliances (cooker and tumble dryer) and fixed both instantly. He's very professional and prompt. As we rent flats Busy Bee Repairs will be invaluable to us in the future. Definitely recommend.
Broken oven and found this company through Google search. Sonia in the office made contact quickly; professional, friendly and appointment made quickly. Sonny was excellent, extremely knowledgeable and quickly worked out the broken part but also why it had failed. I was expecting him to leave and return after ordering parts, however he luckily had what was needed in his van and everything sorted in one visit! Very friendly and highly recommend him.
Dishwasher was leaking, called and spoke to Sonia in the office who was great and organised everything, next morning Sonny was round and everything was fixed by lunch time. Really friendly and knowledgeable, quite clearly someone with a huge amount of experience. I would certainly recommend and will be the first call I make next time I need any repairs.
Sonny came out and was able to fix our machine on first visit. Great service and experience paid off in finding the fault. Would definitely recommend. :)
My oven stopped working on a Sunday afternoon, I called at 12.12 on the Monday lunch time and by half 3 the oven was fixed, all with a full explanation of what the problem was, why it happened and what to look out for in the future. Would absolutely recommend going with Busy Bees for appliance repair - I'd hope I won't have to use them again for a while but very glad to know I'll be taken care of when I do.
Quick service, called at 530pm and washing machine repaired by midday the next day, much cheaper then a new machine. Thank you sunny
Thank you to Sonia & Sonny at Busy Bees for fixing my oven so quickly. Sonny arrived at the agreed time and did a very professional job - and cleaned up afterwards too. Highly recommend this company, they had the parts available so the job was finished within the hour.
Please avoid this company they charge me 138 pounds for a heating element and my cooker still don’t work.
2nd time using these for repairs. Excellent service. A wealth of knowledge. Diagnosed the issue very quickly and offered various solutions based on price to fix the issue. Grill element replaced promptly.
Called on Monday, fixed on Tuesday. Service with a smile. Good value too. Thank you sunny!
Oven element packed in late Wednesday afternoon. Rang Busy Bees at 9am Thursday and by 2pm had it fixed, at a very fair price! Sonny was one of the best tradesmen I've ever met. Friendly, informative, very professional & super efficient. Sonia in the office kept me up to date as to his whereabouts & when I could expect him. Sonny himself phoned shortly before his arrival. Was blown away by the service I received & cannot praise the company highly enough. Can certainly recommend to anyone thinking of using them.
Our fan oven stopped working just before Xmas. Sonny came round and fixed it next day. No problems since. Very professional job.
Fantastic next day service from Sonny who sorted the problem within minutes.Highly recommended.
Called at 10am and spoke to Sonia who was friendly and helpful and arranged a same day visit. Sonny was amazing with loads of experience. Got to the root problem quickly and luckily had the last spare part in his vehicle. Highly recommend this company… thanks guys…
Prompt, efficient and friendly service from engineer called Sonny. Needed an urgent repair to my oven which he sorted quickly and for a better price than quoted by other companies.
Excellent service! I shopped around for ages and many other companies were giving me a call-out cost only but not committing or even giving me a rough idea of the cost for labour/parts (...I think that's how they sting you!). Busy Bee were clear, helpful and honest from the start...AND gave me the best price too so there were no unexpected costs afterwards. Arrived on time, service with a smile and fixed the problem nice and quickly (with a 6 month guarantee included too). Highly recommend Busy Bee for your compliance repairs!
So pleased I chose these people. Initially checked out some other companies to fix my dishwasher but they mostly had high call-out charges even if they didn't manage to sort out the problem. Went for Busy Bee. Communication from their admin was good. Sonny turned up on time with a great attitude. Sorted the problem remarkably quickly and charged a very reasonable price. Whatever the opposite is of a ripoff, Busy Bee is it.
Sonny came around for my washing maching service and repair. He was prompt, efficient and very professional. He took his time to explain the different functions of the machine and how to regularly maintain it. He is very vast and knowledgeable and will highly recommend him for the nice job with a five star and 110% rating!!!
great service, quick response, all fixed within 4 hours of calling :)
The engineer came and fixed my oven within an hour of me calling them! He was friendly, professional and reassuring. He explained everything he was doing, showed me the broken part he removed and the new part going in (he even showed me the cost of the part on Google). He was great! I'd give Busy Bees 10 stars if I could and will absolutely use them again next time I have a problem with my appliances!
called , booked appointment did not show up,book again No show worst experience ever.
Fantastic service, Sonny was friendly and very upfront with everything he was doing. The office kept me well informed the whole way through. Would nightly recommend this great quality service!
Excellent service. Visited same day. Honest appraisal of fault, step by step explanation of possible costs. Washing machine motor rebrushed quickly and with the minimum of fuss. Sunny could easily have turned around and said it was unrepairable and sold us a new machine, prior to taking it apart but was honest and professional. Excellent.
Very quick call out, professional and polite...with some good knowledge shared! Thank you.
Prompt and very efficient service
Contacted Busy Bee Repairs for a broken oven, they were prompt and professional and sorted the problem skilfully. The customer service from Sonya and Sonny was excellent. I knew when they were arriving and they were transparent about costings and timings. Would 100% recommended for any household repairs.
From start to finish I was given brilliant service. Lady on phone was very polite and even spoke to me 3 times. Sunny came to fix my washing machine. He prioritise me as I had limited and the next job was the other end of Leicester.. Within minutes he found the fault. It did not take tim long to do. He was very honest about what he found but had to charge for the call out. Advised me on products that are superior quality. Fixed my problem and also educated me. Very nice man. A definite 5 star's. Strongly recommended.
From the beginning Sonia was great on the phone and kept me informed and up to date with all of the work. Supplied full photos and diagnosed the problem quickly. Was a bit complicated getting the parts but Sonny pointed me in the right direction with information and we got it sorted very quickly. Sonny is extremely knowledgeable and has a passion for his job. Repair was finished and completed within a very short period of time. Will definitely use again and highly recommend.
I contacted Busy Bees through their website and Sonia in the office phoned me back promptly. She booked in the repair for the next day. Sonny was a lovely friendly chap who arrived on time. He phoned about 15mins before to let us know he was on his way. The oven was diagnosed and fixed quickly as he had the parts in his van. Couldn't fault the service from either Sonia or Sonny and we will definitely be using again if we ever need something else repaired.
Please avoid this company if you are considering a dishwasher repair. Spoke on the phone, £78 to assess the problem and labour. Arrived, didn't bother to wait for the actual fault to show up, told me what i already knew on my 5 minute google search, said it could be a heater problem or control board issue - not really interested at all in fixing the issue, essentially way too much bother, talking about charging another 50 quid to just move the dishwasher out. Then proceeded to try and get me to buy another dishwasher. The way the engineer spoke, i can't imagine any repair that would be worth getting them to do. The "no call out" claim is disingenous at best - they charge £78 as soon as they enter the house regardless. Decided to cut my losses there and then - can't understand all their good reviews. Continued to talk about getting a new dishwasher then kept saying he wasn't doing a hard sell, my concern would be elderly customers getting bamboozled by the patter. Avoid.
Really good service received from Sonny at busy bee repairs. Rang up for an oven repair and the guy was able to come over the next day. Really thorough job on repairing it, did the job then and there, was happy to talk me through the work required and took the time to ensure the job was done right. Took care care of the kitchen too making sure he didn't scratch or damage the floor when moving the oven out. Sonny explained the costs of the labor and parts all the way through so there were no surprises. Cooked in the oven that afternoon and has ran perfectly since the repair which was a few months ago now. Would happily recommend them. Thanks Sonny.
Sonny and Sonia were amazing. I spoke to Sonia regarding the problem I had with my fan oven, she was friendly and took detailed information to try to identify what the problem may be. The fan oven was intermittent and sometimes didn't turn on. She got the engineer (Sonny) to call me, when he was free, to discuss the fault and understand the issues the oven was presenting. When Sonny called, he was certain he knew what the issue was and was confident he could repair it for us. I went ahead and Sonny came to repair the oven within a few days, the day I selected. He came and got on with the task in hand and managed to fix the issue within an hour, he also explained a few things to us too, which was useful to know. Both were very professional and polite from start to finish. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone
Found them prompt very helpful 5 star
I found the company to be first class. The engineer Sunny was a real gent, totally knew what he was doing, talked me through the issues, and really did a first class job. Recommend these to anyone. Ontime, polite, professional, clean up. Cost was very good as well. Great result, thank you
Thank you very much for repairing my oven. Good service with no drama ,I was informed of timings and price of the repair was very fair. I would recommend this company if you have an appliance that needs repairing no problem . Thank you again
Diagnosed fault and fixed washing machine quickly; comprehensive explanation of cause of fault and how to avoid in future - pleased with service!
I've used Busy Bee for quite a few years to repair appliances at a couple of houses I let, which get some heavy wear. This week it was my own 12 year old Bosch washing machine - an urgent need with a six-month old baby in the house. The service from Sonny has always been utterly professional, prompt and very good value compared with manufacturers' service plans and extended warranties. Today he replaced brushes in the motor and patiently sorted out a tiresome problem re-setting the error code. He phoned in advance to set out likely costs and possible options if the machine was not repairable. He fixed it for the agreed price and then free of charge cleaned out the accumulations in the waste pipe and fluff filter. Overall excellent value, prompt service and friendly professional service. Highly recommended.
Great service at affordable price.
Great service from busy bees. Sunny was very professional and manged to fix the dishwasher within the hour. Definitely will be using this service in the future and recommending it to others.
Sonny came and fixed our range cooker a touch under 6 months ago. Unfortunately, the part went faulty 3 days before the 6-month warranty was up. Sonny came and replaced the part free of charge, no questions asked. Highly recommended.
Sonny has just repaired my oven and I am very happy with the result. The lady in the office was great on the phone when I booked and called first thing the day of the job as promised, Sonny then turned up on time and immediately identified the problem and was very clear about what needed to be done and how much the job would cost. Happy with service and the price and would definitely recommend and use their services again. Thank you!
When the element in the oven failed , I remembered Busy Bees from our tumble dryer repair. Sunny came out as quickly as possible and changed the element, oven as new, Excellent service. Definitely recommend.
Repair carried out at property in Solihull, great service, extremely prompt in arranging an engineer to attend. Diagnosed fault, repaired and warranty included. Definitely recommend!
Arrived on time, had parts in van for immediate repair. We have used in the past and will use again in the future. Many thanks.
Sunny came round to fix a problem we were having with the drainage of our dishwasher. He came around the same day, and showed us how to fix the problem should it reoccur or if we moved and saw the same problem. He was really helpful and friendly. Definitely use Busy Bees again!
I decided to use this company after reading the positive reviews. I'm really glad I did. The engineer arrived the next day. He was very professional and my washing machine now sounds brand new. Highly recommended.
A fantastic service, we rang yesterday and Sonny came out today and fixed the washing machine.
Very prompt and friendly service. Would definitely use again.
Excellent service, on time, efficient and very polite, would recommend to you all, many thanks Busy Bees
I rang first thing Monday morning to request a repair for my fan oven. Sonny came and had diagnosed and fixed the problem before it was even 11am. I couldn’t have asked for any more efficiency. Sonny was professional and very helpful. He also spotted I was an NHS worker and has given me a discount for the work completed to say Thank You for all of the work both myself and other NHS workers have done during the covid pandemic. Thanks. I am so glad my oven now works.
Charge 48.00 call out when the website says free call out!!!!!!!!
Fantastic. Timely, professional service. Can't beat the prices and quality of work. To our surprise, turned out to be our neighbour!!
We called Busy Bee Repairs one morning for help with our broken cooker and Sonny was knocking on the door that same afternoon ready to repair the issue. He certainly went above and beyond for us and got us back up and running that same day! The service was certainly worth the cost and the warranty gives us that extra piece of mind we need, especially over Christmas!
Prompt service. Aware of investigation costs compared with buying new. New one fitted promptly too.
Very quick and good service. Sonny very friendly and I would recommend him to anyone.
After waiting months for other companies to respond during covid, Sonny came to have a look and resolved within 3 days. Great to have the oven working again despite the extra call out charge.
Good quality service. Efficient service, friendly and informative
Excellent service. Called yesterday regarding fault with an electric oven. Sonny came out to us today on time and was really helpful. Diagnosed the issue straight away. Gave us a choice on the types of parts that could be used. Replaced the part with a new one and tested it all out. Great guy. Definitely recommend.
Excellent and professional service. Came out within a day of telephone call to repair oven no call out charge and able to replace part same day. Clear breakdown of costs . Would recommend and use again.
Busy Bee repairs were fantastic. Identified the fault on a broken grill, sourced the part and installed, all very quickly and professionally. Also very grateful for some advice on a new washing machine that was making a noise and which was identified as being installed incorrectly. Use these guys, excellent local service.
Sonny called today before 8am to repair tumble dryer. Did an excellent job and tidied up also advise me on best kitchen appliances for price and quality. Many Thanks to Sonia who arranged a visit at short notice
Really good and helpful and informative in what he did
Prompt service. Dishwasher just out of guarantee but no obvious reason for fault. Sonny advised contacting manufacturer to see if they would repair under guarantee but also the breakdown of costs if they wouldn't. Unfortunately they wouldn't so as the minimal cost for Sonny to pick up, test and return machine were more than half the original cost we have gone with his recommended replacement which has a 5 year guarantee. Fingers crossed we get a few years out of it. Thank you for being so honest Sonny. Unfortunately the machine displayed the same fault before it reached the end of the programme so we didn't bother trying again.
We found Busy Bees from the many positive reviews online & I had excellent service from the moment I called them. Sonia in the office was helpful and professional and called me the day before my appointment to make sure it was still ok. I got a courtesy call the day of the appointment to give me a time window & a call to let me know that Sonny was running late. When he arrived, Sonny was knowledgable and sorted out my issue quickly. He was upfront about costs before commencing with the work and asked me if I wanted to proceed. He explained everything he was doing and how the machine worked and was quick to remedy the issue. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and I will definitely use again.
Busy Bee repairs were excellent. Communication was good to confirm the slot etc. Sonny came with everything needed to do a repair with parts from the manufacturer. He worked quickly and cleaned aswell as he went along. Competitive price. Really pleased, thank you.
I called on Busy Bee Repairs Ltd to look at my tumble dryer that had stopped working. Sonny arrived the following morning and was polite, professional, explained what the problem was and gave a couple of cost options on how it could be resolved. Overall the firm was professional, good communication and good value for money. Would recommend.
I recently used Busy Bees for my washing machine breakdown. They were very friendly and professional. Sunny was very friendly and nothing was too much trouble for him. He was professional and punctual. They also offer a 10% discount for NHS workers which was a bonus. Thank you to Sonia also for sourcing the seal for my washing machine. I would highly recommend them. Thank you 😊
Best in the business
Main Double oven heater element failed - called Busy Bee Repairs and had a call back to confirm the part would be supplied and fitted - estimate of part cost and labour provided .... not sure why they quote Excl VAT given majority of repairs will be domestic ... that said Sunni was polite, fast and efficient - he checked the repair and cleaned part that were otherwise inaccessible.c
Excellent service provided by Busy Bees Repair Limited. Pleased with NHS discount being a doctor. Sonia was very helpful in organising callouts, being flexible to my working hours and availability and obtaining quotes for suspected problem. Sonny - service with a smile and goes that extra mile, great communication. Experienced and happy to give additional specialist advice. Would recommend and will use again if required. Thanks!
I would definitely recommend this company. They repaired my faulty condenser dryer. Sunny was my engineer he came when he said he was going to, was very friendly, explained what he was doing the whole time and was open and upfront about the cost. He also gave little tips on how to get the best out of the dryer and even cleaned up the mess afterwards. Sunny was fully masked up and kept his distance which should help to alleviate any concerns you may have during the pandemic. Most importantly the dryer now works a treat and I have saved as I was seriously considering just buying a new one. Thanks again Sunny great job!
Excellent, prompt service. Sonny did a great job, I would highly recommend.
Faster than Uber!! Insured with D and G and they couldn't get an engineer out for 2 weeks!! I rang Busy Bees and within 1 hour it was fix!! Very polite and professional
Excellent service all round. Sonia was very pleasant and extremely efficient such that the Engineer, Sonny, was at my house within the hour. He did a great job changing an element within 20 mins! Would highly recommend!
I rang Busy Bees for an issue with a tumble drier that suddenly stopped producing any heat. Great communication and great service, Sunni arrived promptly and was charming, helpful and polite. He quickly got to the bottom of our issue, and showed me how to diagnose and rectify the issue. He also gave general advice on how to look after tumble dryers - so grateful that we rang Busy Bees instead of buying a new dryer!
Good communication from the 1st time we called and a fast efficient fix to the oven. Came out even in these difficult times. Would recommend
Sonny came around this morning to inspect our washing machine, and advised we got a new one. A few hours later, he had delivered and fitted a new machine. Sonny is very knowledgeable, charming and provides a quality service. Sonia also provided very helpful customer service.
We used this company to repair our washer dryer. This service was excellent! They were all helpful & quick service. He didn’t charge us any extra for having to come back & he cleaned & balanced the machine for use at no extra cost. He was very reliable, great service & very helpful every time we spoke & kept us up to date at every stage. I can not recommend this company highly enough! I would never use another company for washing machine repairs. Thank you so much!
Very professional and experienced outfit. Repaired my oven was very helpful offering product choice and good value. But most importantly worked around my availability so I didn't have to wait in all day thanks Sunny great job.
Engineers has to come and look into the fault expected to come on weekend
Sonny fixed our oven when another company couldn’t. Got the job done well for a good rate. Does like to chat 🙂
I made a call to Busy Bee repair service, an engineer was sent out within the hour, Sonny was very efficient, gave me concise and truthful information regarding our broken dishwasher. I had to buy a new one, but that was ordered and installed exactly when he said it would be. A very good service and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Thank you.
Our washing machine door seal was torn and we needed a well priced repair. Our experience with Busy Bee was top class from first call to the end. Although the price was slightly higher than the second choice the reviews won us over and we weren't disappointed. Excellent phone service and next day repair. Sonny pays great attention to small details and goes that extra mile. Definitely recommend.
Busy Bee repairs are just fantastic. Call was answered then the magical Sonny came out sorted our cooker and washing machine - great service very friendly efficient and nothing was too much trouble - all within forty eight hours and in time for xmas
Great service, very prompt and honest. Highly recommend Sonny, thanks for repairing my washing machine. Keep up the great work.
Most impressed with the service,I cant say anymore.
Friendly service honest service
Found on Google, only one we called who could come out next day to fix our washing machine. Sonia was great to deal with and texted us a time window when Sonny would arrive. Sonny arrived on time, did a great job and went beyond expectations with advice and tidyness. Would certainly use again
Sunny did a fantastic job repairing our washing machine. He kept us informed the whole way through and the price was really great so we didn't have to buy new. Highly recommended!!
Supersonic sonny appeared in under an hour with the most friendly service you could ever wish for. Fast repair, amazing service, great price so clean and tidy. Never been let down and have had many repairs!, with friendly customer service from Sonia, this is a truly fantastic service.
Same day appointment. Quick efficient service
Really good service. Called and came out within the hour and carried out the repairs there and then.
I got a same-day repair when my dishwasher stopped working. Every step of the repair was clearly explained and quickly resolved. A friendly, honest and fast service that I'd definitely recommend.
Prompt. Carried out the washing machine (Beko) repair efficiently. Provided useful tips about washing machine care.
World class service , will use again
Just been visited by Sonny from Busy Bees who repaired our integrated dishwasher very quickly and efficiently. A very helpful gentleman who also gave helpful advice. The price was quite reasonable and he visited us quickly after our initial phone call. Would certainly recommend Sonny and this company.
Sonny gave us an honest assessment of our machine one day then got us up and running with a replacement the next morning! Very helpful, friendly, efficient and saved us money.
Called Busy Bees on the evening of Tuesday 8th Jan as our dishwasher was playing up. Got a call from Sunny early the next morning as promised and he was with us within an hour. Was clear about what he was going to do and costs involved and explained what he was doing step by step. Was really helpful and went out of his way to do all he could. Before leaving gave clear advice on the next steps. It’s now been over a week and the dishwasher is honestly working better than it has ever done and that’s thanks to Sunny knowledge and great service. Would recommend these guys really happy with the service.
Used this company for my washing machine repair the gentleman that turned up was on.time polite and quoted fair price for repair he also serviced machine and cleaned filter i would recommend busy bee to all who need a washing machine repair would use again
Prompt on time.... very professional saved me money .... I would recommend busy bee
Really recommend these guys, our Oven was broken which was very inconvenient, Sonny came round same day I called, gave me the option of repair or new one, we decided to have a new one which he collected and fitted the same day! Not expensive and really excellent helpful and tidy service, so pleased I found them.
Turned up when promised, and not only quickly fixed our dishwasher, but also showed me how I could do it myself it if happenned again. Then he even noticed that there was something jammed in my washing machine based on the noise alone and told me how to fix it. Been looking for that USB key for years! Great service.
Was really sceptical to book after seeing some of the bad reviews but went ahead and booked anyway. What a mistake!!! The guy said £48 to just look at the oven however I could use this towards repairs or anything needing done. When he called the next day he really tried to hard sell a product and say I couldn't use the money paid towards a new machine or installation so an extra £255 would have to be paid. Complete waste of time .Avoid avoid avoid.
What a great service and a fantastic friendly and helpful engineer. Just a small issue, with my Hoover washing machine... Sunny, couldn’t do enough to help and didn’t stop until it was solved. 100% recommendation from me.....
Very good prompt response and repair would recommend
I have consistently used this company over the last 10 years, because they are 110% reliable. They are fair and honest and do not mess you around! Sonny, who has carried out repairs and given sound recommendations is always punctual, courteous and incredibly experienced. I have no problems in recommending Busy Bees.
Really good service. Honest opinion on fault and excellent advice on replacement. New washing machine supplied and fitted on same day and old machine removed. Thanks a lot Sonny .
Great service!!!!!!!!! At the end.
Rang them on a Sunday, they had someone round the next day. Their fitter, Sonny, was amazing. Second time I've used them and equally as good as the first. Gave me savings options and and honest diagnosis. Worked quickly and saved me having my dryer out of action any longer. Quick, clean and reasonably priced. Couldn't recommend them enough.
We always call Sunny to repair our kitchen appliances. He is always friendly, super efficient and very reasonable. Thankyou Sunny for repairing my oven.
Sonny bent over backwards to help us and get our oven back up and working. Definitely went above and beyond. Fixed the problem in no time. Can tell he knows his stuff inside out. Contact details saved in my phone for any future issues!!
I called Busy Bee for a quotation to repair her Miele Tumble dryer . I was informed that Busy Bee did'nt fix electrical faults and the call out fee was £48.00,I proceeded to book the engineer. The engineer arrived the same day within a few hours - so far so good ! - On arrival he checked the machine for 10/15 mins and informed me he couldn't confirm if the fault was mechanical or electrical but for him to proceed with additional checks it would cost up-to £170 plus the call out fee , He then suggested it may be wiser to purchase a new machine.He quoted prices for many new machines and proceeded into hard sell.At this point I realised he had no intention to fix the tumble dryer he just wanted to sell a new machine at inflated prices - So in my opinion it was a scam because he didn't have his customers best interests at heart! I asked him to leave and before leaving he invoiced the call out fee . I paid him the next day by bank transfer . After he left my house he telephoned me back and quoted the call out costs for Miele and pushed hard for same day payment.The next day he called twice and visited our house to again push for payment . The payment had already been received by his accounts . I felt intimidated from start to finish. The engineer was a complete pest !
Very good service arrived on time, was very helpful , honest and reasonably priced
the engineer was quick, workmanlike,helpful and informative.would certainly give busy bee,s a call if any other appliance was in need of repair.
This service was very good. The technician came out the next day and I had a call early in the morning to check for a convenient time. The problem with the dishwasher was fixed straight away and I ended up paying half the price quoted to me by Currys/PC World. I would use this service again.
Excellent service. Came out and repaired washing machine the same day. Friendly engineer Sonny was very thorough and explained what needed done before doing it.
Intergrated dish washer broke down. Prefer free standing machines easyer to replace. Sonny sorted me out in 24 hours. Good fast service I'd use him again
Came out within 2 hours to fix our oven. Good price, great service and left everything clean & tidy. Would definitely recommend for repairs on all white goods
Polite, responded within 24 hours. Knowledgable chap came out, quickly diagnosed the fault with my washing machine, replaced the part, tested it, and recommended some care and maintenance actions for me. The costs were made clear to me every step of the way. Good service, quick. Recommended
