Reviews highlight knowledgeable engineers, quick solutions to hot water, boiler, radiator and shower problems, clear explanations, tidy workmanship and a friendly, considerate approach, including during maintenance visits and urgent call-outs.

I have worked with PHD Mechanical for over 10 years across different managing agents, and they have consistently provided an excellent level of service. They are reliable, professional, extremely helpful, and always willing to assist, even when dealing with complex issues or emergency situations. Their engineers and office team have always performed to a high standard, often resolving difficult problems quickly and calmly without any fuss. Their knowledge, responsiveness, and commitment make them a trusted contractor and a pleasure to work with. A special mention to Chris Hammerton, Bill Moffatt, David, Blake, Tim Stanford, Alan O’Keeffe, Charlotte Jenkins, Sam Caesar, Vanessa Phillips and Scott Morgan for their continued support and professionalism over the years. I would highly recommend PHD Mechanical to anyone looking for a dependable and experienced mechanical & electrical contractor.
Ted came to my boiler with no hot water for 6 days and he saved the day and we need more people like ted. Honest hero
Perry came in today and things went smoothly. Service was done, Perry was a nice guy, no notes.
Boyd came and fixed my hot water in less than 5 minutes, very professional and knowledgeable! Great service
Thanks Josh & Darren, for stopping by at Marylebone Mansions to carry out the maintenance service in the water tank. You've done a great job! 😊
Perry Brown arrived on an unscheduled visit and despite my initial apprehension, he was patient, respectful and explained his purpose well. He has certain shown that he is an asset to your team

He did an amazing job and I am so grateful to him and for sure he will be the one person I will have back here when I need these sort of jobs . Thank you very much Darryl ! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
we are specialists in delivering reliable and efficient building maintenance services across London and the South East. I had some plumbing work to be done in my house and they are efficient doing the work. Price I felt was bit higher than market standard.
Perry B did an excellent job on our HIU and boiler annual service. Professional and efficient. Highly recommended.
Perry Brown carried out the HUI marine in our apparent, he was very kind, polite and friendly. Let the area nice and clean afterwards. A big thank you :)
I had a very smooth and accommodating experience. Penny Brown came around when I was expecting the visit, was very mindful that I was on work calls, and was particularly accommodating that there was a heavy piece of furniture that I couldn’t move and so worked around it. Really stress free and so lovely to have a nice customer service experience as it just starts the day off a little better :)
Perry Brown your PHD engineer who conducted our annual service on heating, hot water and ventilation system was amazing. Very helpful, friendly and professional. Great service.
I’m very happy with the service provided. The engineer that came to my apartment, Perry Brown was very professional went above and beyond to help me with anything he could even if it wasn’t strictly within the task assigned. Would recommend 100%.
Boyd, the PHD. engineer has been absolutely amazing. He definitely has years of experience that certainly paid off today. Previous two BAXI engineers were an absolute waste of time. They just showed up, took pictures, and said the job could not be done missing parts, etc. Boyd, on the other hand, He asked about the issues, actually looked at the tank, electrics and everything, listened to the tank, used his knowledge and expertise, and fixed the problem. Very pleasant, knowledgeable gentleman who was not in a rush to pass off the job but was interested in solving the issue because of his years of experience he was able to diagnose the problem and solve it. Thank you, Boyd, we now have hot water. Excellent work ethics and fantastic customer service. Great employee and an asset to PHD mechanics company reputation 👏
Alex and Blake were really great, they sorted out our shower really quickly and put in a report to have the problem solved more long term. They also explained what had happened in a way that was easily understandable and what to look out for while we were waiting for the long term fix.
Josh was fantastic! He arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and carried out the work with real professionalism. He made sure everything was running perfectly before leaving and was friendly and approachable throughout. Great service from Josh and the whole PHD Mechanical team - highly recommended!
It was great to see Josh maintaining our equipment, and all with a smile! He clearly took the time to look into historic 6 monthly servicing, parts and so forth, so that he was super informed - great job! PHD, you've a good one there.
Visited today by Plumber Chris who, was excellent, helpfull, explained it great detail everything that the previous chap had not. Fixed the issue very satisfactory and couldn't praise Chris highly enough.
I highly recommend Alex plumber and the company as a whole. They did an excellent job and managed to resolve a long-standing issue in just one visit. Their expertise and efficiency were impressive, and the service was both friendly and professional. It’s rare to find such skilled tradespeople who deliver results so quickly. Thank you for your outstanding work!
Replace new bath taps sink taps tiles etcetera Alex was s friendly a real people's person I would have him around again anytime, he even replaced the bathroom tiles someone else would not have even bothered. Thank You Alex From Westmacott House Westminster Hatton Street NW8 8PR.
Perfect job done by Alex
A horrible experience with this company .STAY AWAY! I got invoices which show the total bill amount is over £2200, because of the 14 "units" of work. This is a commercial fraud. I asked for my shower to be fixed as there was no hot water. The first engineer came and tried to check the heater and told me that he can't fix it as there was a special part that needed to be replaced. The next day, another engineer came, yet he could still not fix the problem. He was then followed by a third engineer. Someone then came for about 15 minutes, someone else then came twice on different days. What's the point if you send people who cannot fix the problem, but they just appear at random, and then I get charged for it?! So I had at least 6 or 7 different engineers come to my flat, who tried to fix the problem and all failed. No one told/notified me, there would be a charge for each visit, regardless of whether anything was fixed. I assumed (naively) that I would be charged for a qualified and experienced engineer to actually fix the problem, rather than having to pay for a plethora of engineers, who clearly had no idea how to fix the problem. The first engineer couldn't fix it, and then more new equally unqualified people kept coming, did nothing and yet I am somehow expected to pay for this?! This is truly just commercial fraud. And another mess is that, the number of units I am being charged aren't even all for my "work"on my flat - They (PHD)have consolidated one person's work on multiple flats onto one invoice and billed me for the total! That clearly is fraud! I sent a couple emails to the director of PHD, which they did not reply to instead insisting that they wanted to discuss the case over the phone. However each time we agreed on a time to call, and I called, the Director was suddenly unavailable. They also kept changing the person in charge of this issue, and now there is no further response from this company. It's been a year time now , none of these problems (heater and invoices) solved. Nightmare !
Chris and Ted were a fantastic team today. Working as an autonomous team, Chris was really passionate about his job, and it was great to see him pragmatically explaining to his apprentice Ted how he was proceeding with his work. Very polite and helpful. Many thanks. Tony PS. Must also mention Monica in the office who really listened and was so helpful.
PHD Mechanical is not impressive at all. Boilers in the communal heating plant, which managed by them were all gone in the middle of cold weather. They provided an invoice for reapir that requires new parts, which is 30% higher than other quotes. Find another company to look and the boilers were backto work without change any parts. Be aware of it.
