“Items of Note: 1. Failed to turn up within stipulated time. 2. Damaged bath whilst carrying out the work. 3. Didn't fit the new shower unit properly. 4. Spent 20-25 mins out of the house on his mobile. Arranged to have a triton T80 Si power shower removed and replaced with a new Triton 80 Easy Fit Shower (Manufacturers recommend this as the ideal replacement shower). VHLtd. said job would take up to 2 hours. Payment taken by card up front. Appointment arranged for visit between 11am and 1pm. By 2pm plumber hadn't arrived. I telephoned VHLtd who apologised for their error and after contacting their plumber said he would be there within 40 mins. He arrived just before 3pm and said it was on his notes that he was to fix the existing shower. I had to explain that he had to replace the existing shower, not fix it. The Plumber said it could take up to 2 hours. I said "that's what I've paid for" so he then said he had to call his office to check payment had been made for 2 hours. During the time of his visit he spent at least 20 mins on the phone and took pictures of his work as he went along "so he could show his office what he had done". He managed to damage the bath. "Don't worry I can fix that he said" and proceeded to slap some bath paint over the damaged area. He also said the existing electrical trunking was too big for the new shower unit so rather than trim the electrical trunking to fit (He said it would need an electrician to do that) he has basically done a big of a "bodge job" with the new shower unit case left nat fitting flush. Would not use this company again and would not recommend them.”

“Engineer came not name on email,in less than 10 minutes said boiler was serviced he basically told me it was working what l knew already, all he did was checked no leaks and sat in his van. Very poor service”

“My old boiler died a few days before Christmas 2015.VHL estimate was good and a new boiler was installed in 2 days by a splendid team with the minimal disruption and adequate follow up to ensure I was fully familiar with the new installation. My thanks to Nicky and manager Chris for their professional kindness and efficiency in solving so swiftly a heating emergency on Christmas week. I highly recommend VHL to all my acquaintances in Harrow”

“I arranged to have a VHL engineer visit to check on some issues I've been having with my heating and to do a boiler service. He successfully diagnosed the issue with the heating, but since the service my boiler hasn't worked properly. VHL deny all responsibility for this, even though the fault appeared the very next time I turned the hot water on since they looked at it. Previously the boiler had been working just fine, the other issues I had were unrelated to it. They would only send someone out to look at it if I paid another call out charge. Needless to say I won't be taking them up on their offer.”

“The Plumbing done for us last year was a success. Have already recommended to 2 friends. Hope you can send the same person again. Telephone service in Harrow could be helpful. Thanks”

“I have used VHL on at least five occasions in the last 12 months. Their work has been excellent on the first four occasions, but on the last occasion when a kitchen tap was replaced, their plumber did not secure the new tap firmly onto the sink. Whilst there is no problem with its operation, it simply turns slightly to left or right when the hot or cold tap is turned on. I will need to get them back to fix it.”

“This company should be avoided at all costs. I called them in to look at my broken boiler, which they had been servicing previously, on an 'informal' contract with our housing association. But when I mentioned a new boiler, they showed no interest at all in the repair, and spent the whole callout time trying to convince me that they had the best installation offer. And then, without the two dodgy operatives having done another single thing, they charged me the full callout fee (around £130 or so, as I recall). Avoid these cowboys.”

“Very disappointed, considering VHL are a sizeable (and locally well reputed) company. The service engineer left the boiler in such a state that it had to be disconnected, and that in the cold weather we had this year in March. The problems that the service engineer said my boiler had during our annual service were all incorrect, and this was proven when I got another company to come and replace my boiler. With the boiler dismantled, they were able to physically show me what the problem was and they told me that there was no need to replace my boiler after a mere seven years. All-in-all, very disappointed, both at the incorrect diagnosis of my boiler AND at the cost of having a new boiler installed based on the advice of VHL!”

“Initially i was promised all work will be carried out within the hour, i paid £162 - then i was told they need to come out again which cost me an additional call out charge plus parts cost- the engineer turned up 2 hours late, i had to cancel my meetings to wait at home because another job was more important- then the engineer left a water leak through my boiler. I am far from impressed with the service, a manager was due to call me back- still heard nothing!! Won't be using them again. I'm left with a water leak and no one will answer my calls or call me back.”

“We have not used this company. We did request a quote, made an appointment for them to quote for a new boiler but they failed to attend. We phoned to make a second appointment, they never returned our call.”

“21st June 2016. First of all the email says 'recently made a purchase from Village Heating etc..' This was actually October last year! Secondly, I had to pay £90.00 up front for the call out. The engineer did arrive within the hour so that is a plus point and he fixed the problem within an hour. However, I was charged £35 for a thermocouple which six months later failed again. I had another company fit the same part and it only cost £4 this time. I felt I was ripped off the first time for the price of the part! Unlikely I will use VHL Heating again.”

“It was our free annual service as part of the new boiler installation. However, It would have helped if the engineer or somebody from the team could have offered to have further service package.”

“We booked appointment & engineer called and was told that estimate will be sent. I had to chase several times for estimates. Admin staff did not have any clue regarding estimates. In the end we carried out our work by another company.”
