Calder Services (Lancashire) Ltd

Service an oil boiler but don’t unblock the blocked Flu. Obviously deadly. They also drop junk mail promoting their services by hand into letterboxes that say “no junk mail” on them. So I think that tells you all you need to know about this company. Avoid.

Calder saved my bacon! When selling my house a solicitor advised the people buying it, they should push for a gas safety check of the boiler and the fire. I had no idea this was required and was last minute, as we were about to exchange contracts. Simon at Calders was FAB and arranged for an engineer to come the next day at 8am, the day before a BH weekend too. Polite, friendly, got the job done, no drama - thanks so much, we really appreciate your prompt and efficient service!

Efficient, willing and happy to explain what was going on. Very polite and left everything clean and tidy. Very happy to recommend.

Calder have recently removed our original oil fired boiler and installed a replacement Worcester Greenstar 18/25 oil fired boiler. The entire process - the assessment of work required, determination of the recommended optimum way forward, and the actual installation of the new boiler - was conducted by Calder with the utmost professionalism. All Calder personnel involved with this job were extremely pleasant, helpful and constructive. The actual work, involving removal of the original boiler and installation of the new boiler, was carried out with attention to minimising disruption as far as was practicable and with attention to tidiness. The overall work spanned two days but the new boiler was operational by the end of the first day. All Calder personnel involved in this assignment were first class (as has been Calder's service to us in the past) and I would have no hesitation in recommending Calder to other prospective customers.

We required urgent assistance to resolve a critical hot water pressure issue, and Calder Services responded quickly and professionally from the outset. Their team provided immediate technical support, assessed the situation thoroughly, and proposed a clear, practical remedial solution without delay. What stood out most was their ability to implement a fit-for-purpose solution within just a few days, minimising disruption while fully addressing the root cause of the problem. The remedial work was carried out efficiently, safely, and to a very high standard. The solution delivered was not only effective but also overall cost-effective, demonstrating strong technical judgement and a clear focus on value rather than unnecessary scope. The workmanship was of excellent quality, reflecting the experience and professionalism of a top-class technical team who clearly take pride in their work. Overall, Calder Services delivered an effective, high-quality solution under time pressure, and we would not hesitate to recommend them for urgent or complex service requirements.

We had our boiler and heating system serviced by Calder in September after a few years. Some of the radiators did not get warm and some were not working at all. Calder did a fantastic job and now all our radiators work brilliantly. Their engineer attending to our job was very knowledgeable and helpful and we are very happy with their work. We strongly recommend them to anyone who needs help with their heating system Dr and Mrs Mansoori

We operate a large GP practice in Blackburn. Calder did a significant project at one of our sites. Then has continued to give ongoing service and maintenance across our sites. They have responded quickly to our requests, and have always given excellent service. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, very helpful. I cannot complement them highly enough. I totally recommend them. Thank you Calder Services.

We recently had our boiler replaced and other works done by Calder services. The jobs undertaken were excellent. The Engineers were very hardworking and respectful in our home. We would not hesitate to have them again. Thankyou. to all the team. !

I have recently had an air conditioning unit fitted in my conservatory. During the summer months it is impossible to use the conservatory with the heat and also makes the rest of the house uncomfortably hot. This unit also has an heat setting which will be fabulous in winter. I am very impressed that not only does my conservatory no longer get hot but the whole house is now cool even on the hottest of days. Calder services supplied and fitted it very quickly and professionally. The engineers are always very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this company you won't be disappointed.

Great service and knowledgeable. Called Calder Services and they came out the same day. We'd had a fault with our heating for months, but because it was summer we put it off until the hot water also stopped working. We also had an issue with a leak from our hot water tank from the moment our boiler was fitted by British Gas 7 years ago. We were told by others that fixing this would be a big job and even told it was normal but British Gas. However Calder Services fixed it no problem - they clearly know what they are doing and are professional. Will use again.

Top class service Used for annual servicing/ breakdowns would highly recommend

Recently had a new oil boiler installed by calder and they were fantastic from quote through to completion. We have a somewhat none standard install with issues other installers either glossed over or ignored. I called calder over a couple of days to clarify the details of the install and compare with other quotes and was impressed with their thorough approach. Installation was swift and engineers we're friendly, my partner particularly enjoyed their harmony with The Cranberries playing on the radio on day 2. 10/10 would recommend and will be using for future servicing.

Calder Services have helped us out a few times with emergency problems and they’ve always been super fast, efficient and very helpful.

We arrived back to the house in Clitheroe after being away and discovered quite a bad leak coming through the kitchen ceiling that had cleared caused quite a lot of damage. We called Calder plumbing and they had someone at the house within 15 mins. He diagnosed the problem swiftly, went to get the relevant parts, and fixed the leak within the hour. A huge relief….. wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company

Ash and Luke were competent, professional and respectful. They got the job done properly and tidily and had a great attitude. The scheduling was well handled and with no delays. We would certainly use again if needed.

New shower installation. They did a superb job for us. We had to have the pipes redirected and we have venetian plaster in the bathroom, so we were a bit nervous but we only needed to patch a tiny bit. The lads really care about the standard of work they do, I would highly recommend them.

Excellent reliable service. Always arrive when they promise, and the engineers are skilled, friendly, professional, and always solve the problem quickly. We have relied on Calder Services for over 10 years, and they have never let us down. Would highly recommend them to everyone.

We have just had a new boiler installed by Calder Services and are most impressed by their prompt, professional approach. Their engineers arrived at the time agreed and they were friendly, polite and respectful of our home whilst completing their work which was done within the time scale quoted. We will certainly use them for any future needs and highly recommend them.

Great workmanship, property left clean and tidy daily, great service from the whole team.

Prompt and professional service when fitting my new boiler. Respectful and thoughtful engineers who communicated well throughout and left everything clean and tidy.

Super friendly staff whilst delivering there.

Calder are a first class outfit. They have upgraded our central heating and hot water systems in phases so we could manage the costs. The quality of work is superb and the team are professional and easy to have around. Highly recommend if you want the job doing to a very high standard. We couldn’t be happier with the performance of the system - transforming a very old farm house into a warm home that works.

Avoid this company at all costs, the engineer was rude and unhelpful, constantly moaned about the type of boiler we hade. He said we needed 2 parts, he did return with these the next day but then after more complaining about the boiler, he decided it needed to come of the wall and that was a 2 man job, this would not get done until the Monday. He was prepared to leave a frail 75 year old man with Parkinson Disease and gout in his knee with no heating or hot water for 5 days. Fortunately an engineer who knew what he was doing came out to him on Sunday and repaired the boiler in 40 minutes. He is returning on Wednesday with 1 part and the boiler does not need to be taken off the wall.

During a recent very cold spell without heating or water, I struggled with a boiler related issue I was unsure of. Contacted Calder at 9am & by 1pm it was resolved. Engineer very informative & helpful. Service you appreciate by all at Calder.

Our boiler startede leaking and the pressure was jumping. Rang Calder and they were at our house within half an hour. Bloke was really professional and sorted it out for us. Reasonably priced too. Will definitely use again in future!

Since we moved into the area 7 years ago, we have exclusively used Calder Services for annual servicing and if any problems have occurred (including an underground oil leak). They fitted a new boiler when it reached the end of it's service life, and every time the staff are first class, as is the quality of the work by the engineers and the prices are very reasonable. On the coldest day of the year so far our underfloor heating stopped working, they came out promptly and due to the very complicated setup we have with mix of underfloor, radiators, back burner stoves and hot water storage tanks it wasn't immediately apparent what the issue was, the engineer thought he knew but would check with the manufacturer, came back a few hours later having had his idea confirmed and now toasty and warm again. Many thanks and Highly recommended A+++++++.

Excellent service, from the person who answered the phone in the office, through to the prompt and efficient work carried out on the boiler itself. The engineer, Thomas, was very polite, informative and courteous - a real credit to the company. We would definitely recommend using this company. Thank you.

I have used Calder services recently for plumbing work, boiler work and electrical work. All the staff are fantastic at their job and the work has been faultless. I would recommend their services to anyone.

Came out quickly and fixed my boiler the following day. Not the cheapest but quality service you can trust.

Very quick response and they always do a very professional job. Thank you Calder!

A perfectly planned and executed oil central heating boiler installation, along with other complex plumbing jobs required in and around my home. Courteous, professional and highly skilled engineers completed the installation on schedule and without no fuss whatsoever. First class service and excellent communication from a reputable local company. Calder services will be my first choice Plumbing and Heating engineer going forwards. Outstanding service, who care about their customers and their homes. They even provided electric heaters for the family to keep warm whist the installation took place.

Great customer service. Gas engineer competent and solved issues. Recommend Calder Services.

Superb communication at all times and quality updates updates by the plumbing engineer and Head Office what's happening why and when. Breath of fresh air so many businesses are hopeless at communication.

Really helpful responding to my mother-in-law's heating emergency, re-instating her heating in a cold snap, thanks michael

A gas pipe which hadn't been capped off was holding up my new kitchen installation. The very friendly and professional engineer was here the morning after my call, explained everything thoroughly, did the job (left no mess) - very happy and would recommend any time.

Very efficient and quick service. Ashleigh was knowledgeable and polite .

Excellent service. Knowledgeable advice. All you could ask for. .. and really prompt.

Very good service. Boiler fixed explained what was wrong.

Superb service. Had a new boiler fitted after my old one gave up the ghost and these guys surpassed my expectations with how they handled everything from fitting, cleaning up after the job and subsequent contact with their office for after-sales queries. I found their service to be quick, efficient and courteous. On the strength of this experience I will now use their services in the future without hesitation. Highly recommended.

What brilliant service! My boiler was leaking. I called at 9am and someone was with me by 10am. All sorted by lunchtime. Polite, efficient service. Thank you.

Rang for a call out, they took my details and never got back to me Very poor customer service.

Gets 5 stars from me. Always turn up on time and never overcharge. Very professional and friendly engineers.

Craig the managing director is a very rude man
