Total cost for unvented cylinder £6,259.91. Installation successful and working without issue. Quote: (1) Isolate water and electric supplies (2) Drain down cylinder, cold water storage cistern, and F&E tank (3) Install Heatrae Sadia Megaflo Eco System Ready Cylinder 210ltr in loft space (4) Install scale reducer (5) Connect onto existing immersion supply switch (6) Covert gravity fed heating system to pressurised system (7) Re-fill cylinder, (8) Test and commission. Parts cost £3,355.91. Plumb Nation offers the cylinder at £1,692.00. When I queried Tailored replied “The type of system you had before was not mains pressure, it was a gravity fed system. Your central heating system was converted to mains pressure. There are a lot more materials involved than just the cylinder itself, such as expansion vessel, magnetic filter, and scale reducer, etc. Plumbnation is not a supplier of ours and installing a Systemready indirect cylinder from a Y-plan conventional system is more involved.” Labour cost £2,904 = £1,452.00 per day. Tailored replied “The quotation you received is a fixed price, it is not calculated on a hourly or day rate basis. Yes we stated 2-3 days, this is to manage your expectations for the durations of works and our engineer completed the works within this time frame.” If you are fine for price you will probably be satisfied. I am not. My error was to trust the quote was a fair assessment. Tailored Plumbing falls far below the standard of a trusted trader for me

We have reviewed your feedback and can confirm that you were provided with a fixed cost quotation, and that you were advised that the works were expected to be completed within 2-3 days. The works were completed in 2 days, therefore in line with the estimated duration. Our fixed cost quotations are not based on the length of time to complete the works but on the works itself. From your comments you are now unhappy with the cost of the works, despite no changes to cost being done, you receiving the quotation beforehand, and you agreeing to the cost. A cylinder installation quotation can be quite variable from property to property, depending on the property size, the type of existing system, access limitations etc. To convert a Y-plan to a S-plan involves electrical, plumbing, and heating works. Your plumbing was also reconfigured from the top floor level to the loft space. Our Operatives explained that the cost of the cylinder itself, which you were comparing to our parts cost, is not the only materials needed when installing an Indirect Unvented Cylinder from an Indirect Vented copper cylinder. I am satisfied that you were completely informed of the works being carried out, your queries were answered, and that the works were completed in full. We maintain very high standards, and quality assurance is at the forefront of all our services provided. In the market we are very competitive with our prices ensuring that transparency is also one of our main priorities.

I'm a pensioner, I'm totally dependent on living in a warm house and my central heating system failed. I hadn't called this company before, but within minutes of leaving a message they called back and said they'd get over as quickly as they could. The guy who came was clearly having a busy day, but came over about an hour after I'd rung, did a great job, explained what had gone wrong, put it right, told me how to prevent it happening again - and charged me a totally reasonable price. This is a superb, straightforward and totally efficient company.

Replacing a leaky old toilet with a new one. This was not a straight forward job, some 'boxing in' needed to be removed before the new toilet could be installed. The job was completed in less time than I had expected with less mess than I expected and with a far neater finish than I expected. I was very pleasantly surprised. The job was completed on time and at the agreed price. Everyone I was in contact with were friendly and helpful. I would use them again.

Unfortunately and mistakenly left a negative review previously. In fact I was pleased with the replacement of 2 defective rad valves and repair of leaking trap. Polite and helpful plumber

It’s our second time using Tailored Plumbing & Heating and once again the team (Erol, Dave and the office staff) have upheld the high level of professionalism and service we previously experienced. We recently moved into a house that had +40 year old boiler and pipework. The team removed the legacy kit, installed a new boiler, unvented cylinder and replaced x5 radiators. The communication was great from beginning to end! I would not hesitate to recommend them. Consistent, punctual, honest and reliable. A pleasure to do business with them.

Hello, We had a problem with our washbasin and bath. It was getting worse than worse but it was not an emergency. I asked Tailored plumbing & heating to come as they sounded professional on the phone. The "engineer" came, shut down the water for him to be able to work. He did his job badly, turned the water on and left. When he turned the water on a leak appeared at the valve and so did the beginning of our problems. We called them back straight for them to open the valve properly. They said it was our fault because... Because! We spent four days and nights in absolute nightmare as we had to empty a bucket full of water every two hours. In fact, the whole stopcock, hot valve and cold valve had to be changed. It cost us a fortune. Thanks Tailor, your “engineer” made things worse.

We are deeply saddened that you were not satisfied with the service we provided. The works were carried out in full, with no leaks reported from the bath or basin. Our engineer advised you that your stopcock was defective and leaking already when on site. Our engineer tightened the nut on the valve body and the leak stopped before he left. Your husband telephoned and advised that the leak had started again. We confirmed that the fault was not caused by our engineer and that this stopcock was not part of the original works, however we were happy to return, but the visit would be chargeable, as the issue was not due to the engineer’s work. When we require to turn a stopcock and find that the stopcock is defective, it is not our responsibility to repair it. In conjunction the stopcock in question is part of the riser, which if replaced would affect your neighbours supply and without notification to your neighbours, it is our policy to not replace it. Our agents and customer relations team called and emailed you but your husband repeatedly swore and shouted down the phone. We do not tolerate abusive behaviour towards our staff.

Tailored plumbing undertook an annual boiler service but identified a small problem that they recommended should be remedied .This involved attaching one pipe 6 cm to a adjacent drainage piping . Rather than undertaking the work on the day , I was then charged £180 for a subsequent visit .

Dear Customer We are disappointed in your comments, as you have been a repeat customer of ours for some time. We have reviewed your comments and responded to your feedback via email on 30.5.22. A boiler service and gas safety inspection were requested and took place on 26.5.22. A boiler service is for maintenance only and does not cover repairs. Our engineers are allocated enough time for each appointment slot based on the customer's request at the time of booking. At this appointment, our engineer completed the works requested but found that your boiler's condensate pipework was not connected to the drain. This was not unsafe for the appliance and this was explained to you by our engineer and customer service operative, however, you requested for it to be resolved and agreed to a fixed quotation for the works to be carried out. Our engineer then re-attended as per your request on 30/5/2022 and rectified the issue with the condense pipe at the agreed fixed cost. Throughout the entire process, you received the services you requested and were charged the agreed quoted cost. The cost to repair the pipework would have been the same if the engineer had carried out the work on the same day or another day, however, if he did carry them out on the same day he would have been late for another customer's agreed appointment.

This is the second time we have used Tailored Plumbing and Heating. Both times they have been able to send someone over without delay, and both engineers have provided practical, cost-effective solutions for our issues. Thoroughly recommended.

Fantastic service! It’s so hard to find a good plumbing company these days, some sole traders don’t even call back or turn up for booked appointments. With this company - from start to finish everything was just perfect. Working 24 hours from sending an email, I was contacted promptly with exact pricing and options for an appointment. An engineer Erol came as agreed, did a fantastic job servicing the boiler and fixing a leak with the toilet. Will definitely use again as good plumbers come hard by nowadays.
