Oil boiler installation
Reviews
4.2
Kyle, Jason, Moaz, Callum, John, Jazz, Suzi, Stu, Lee and Adem Kaya are named in reviews for their help with boiler replacements, a gas stove, a Rayburn service and central heating work. Merretts Heating Services Ltd is described as knowledgeable and helpful, with reviewers reporting quick response at short notice and problems solved on the spot. Reviewers mention neat work, pipes hidden where possible, clean and tidy finishes, and aftercare that followed up until they were satisfied. One reviewer had a bad experience and called the firm very rude and unhelpful, while another said work by unqualified apprentices often needed correcting by senior engineers. Others said they got no reply to a quote or service request, seemed uninterested in new work or an oil boiler quote, and one reported a leak still not fixed after repeat visits and an invoice for £420.80. In the Rayburn installation complaint, the firm later put the work right at no charge, and the reviewer suggested asking for a senior engineer for a big job.
Merretts Heating Service have recently installed a new boiler for my Mother (94). I cannot praise the company and young men that carried out the work enough. I have no hesitation in recommending Merrets.
Recently we had Merretts come and replace our boiler, and install underfloor heating in our extension. Aswell as replacing our whole heating system. The whole team was fantastic, going to extra lengths to make things look neat and hide pipes where possible to do so. A big thank you to Kyle/Jason/Moaz and Callum for their hard work during this process. However the main person we would like to praise is Adem Kaya, he went above and beyond whilst he was here and ensured everything got done on time. If you are looking for plumbers book in with Merretts there is a reason they are so busy!
Our boiler developed a serious leak and needed an engineer out twice as some water damage was not evident until the engineer attempted to fire up the boiler. Merretts staff were extremely helpful, skilful and efficient in getting the parts, rearranging engineers schedules and fixing the problems with the absolute minimum of down time. Thanks Merretts.
A bad experience from B Gas led me to look elsewhere. We had a very noisy system that kept overheating and switching. B GAS turned up to fix under a “service” contract and proceeded to insist I need a new boiler plus a powaflush due to sludge. And that was without any investigation. Merretts turned up within a day, injected system cleaner, returned in 3 days. Engineer diagnosed that the noise was excessive air, BGAS had set the pump up incorrectly and did not clear air in system. System drained and flushed and there was not excessive sludge. Great service, a system that is now whisper quiet, all radiators working efficiently. All done by engineers that knew what tgey were doing and not trying to do a sales job. The moral is, use a local knowledgeable company not a corporate entity that only wants to sell you something and preys on people with no knowledge. Fortunately I don’t fit into that bracket.
Merritts fitted our new central heating system. Complete new system in tricky old cottage with solid fuel Rayburn. Professional and efficient. Team got round dramas and difficult bits. Found solutions. Great aftercare. Delighted with our warm house! Winter was pleasant last year!!!
Very rude and unhelpful
The engineer that came out to service our Rayburn was superb. Merretts customer service is 2nd to none. If you have a problem talk to them. I can't fault the service after an initial hiccup about whether we were new customers or existing.
Avoid like the plague Works carried out by unqualified apprentices and often have to be corrected by qualified senior engineers after many visits.
Boiler failed on Christmas Eve, eve. Rang fully expecting to be without heating over Christmas. John and Jazz arrived on Christmas Eve morning and made a temporary fix. Parts ordered and awaiting a full repair. Fantastic service, thank you!
Top service to replace our bolier. Good value. No surprises. Very clean and polite. Highly recommended.
We were very impressed with the service from Merretts, with especial thanks to Suzi and Stu for their help in installing our new gas stove. Very efficient and pleasant to deal with. Thanks Julia and John
Arrived a few hours after I called. Solved the issue quickly.
Asked for a quote.no response! Asked for a service no response either.
Excellent
Very helpful lady booked us a service and the engineer that came out was very thorough.
Lee came to fit a new boiler and I am very happy with the service, he was quick and left the place very tidy, would definitely recommend
They didn't seem interested in any new work I asked them for a quote to install an oil central heating boiler They said they could nt do that!!!!
I had a significant water leak coming from my boiler. I called Merretts on a Saturday and they rapidly sent out an engineer, stating an emergency callout charge of £150 plus VAT. Their engineer attended for less than half an hour, stating there was nothing he could do until the following week. He left with water still leaking significantly from the boiler, no repairs made. The following Wednesday the engineer attended and replaced the expansion vessel which allegedly was the cause of the leak. The boiler was still leaking when he left (2 litres per day), the recommendation was that maybe we needed a new boiler, it was possibly the right hydro block leaking. No follow up was made, we then received an invoice for £420.80. I paid the invoice, still no follow up. I then sent an email via the website stating my concern and dissatisfaction, 14 days later I received a response. The response was that they were happy to send out an engineer free of charge to see what the problem was, but made no offer of remuneration or compensation. My overall feeling is that this business is only really interested in your money, not making you feel valued as a customer and not following through on jobs which actually if left incomplete, can lead to significant damp repair costs in the home.
Not interested in doing business. Apparently
These guys know their stuff 100%
Excellent service at short notice.
Excellent reliable service and installation Always ready to advise and assist where they can
I have spent so much money on getting my Grant combo boiler to run smoothly. A client recommended Merretts Heating and my boiler has been running perfectly ever since. The receptionists are very professional and friendly and the engineers very knowledgeable .
If I were to rate Merretts on customer service and friendliness of the workers, I would give 5 stars. Unfortunately a Rayburn boiler installation went terribly wrong because the installers were not experienced enough to do the job without supervision. A senior engineer had to come back and do all the work again! However, I cannot fault the desire of the company to get it right and they charged us nothing until several weeks had passed and we were fully satisfied. Ask for a senior engineer if you are having a big job done. I'm sure servicing would be fine.
Very efficient engineers. Came when they said he would. Fast and tidy.
Merretts recently serviced our oil-fired boiler and replaced a faulty condensate soakaway. They did a superb job on both counts, and get two thumbs up from me!
