Review from Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services Review left on 21 Jun 2011Rating: 5 out of 5Rob was prompt, reliable, obviously sincere and honest - my tenants said he was friendly and sorted out the job well. Only little bit of feedback was he was a bit disorganised and forgot to do the gas safety check, but that was only a minor issue! thanks would use again.Review from Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services

Robert Blair turned up for the job but felt that the boiler was so old it needed to be replaced. I am now exploring options regarding replacement.Review from Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services

Rob came to service my boiler and within seconds of taking off the boiler cover, took a carbon monoxide reading which he said was 'very high' and that he would have to disconnect my boiler. I said that I needed the hot water and heating since it was the middle of winter so he agreed to give me a warning notice instead. He then said I should get a new boiler, at a cost of around £1000 plus labour etc. This was all pretty scary and unexpected, especially as I have a working carbon monoxide detector alarm which sits on the boiler and has never gone off. I got a second opinion from another tradesman from Mybuilder.com who said that Rob should have at least completed the service and then taken another reading which he didn't. The second tradesman was here for over an hour doing the full boiler service and showed me the CO reading which he said was well within safety limits. As a result I can't help feeling ripped off by Rob and uneccesarily frightened.Answer from tradesperson:
I noticed the flue elbow clamp was damaged. My gas flue analyser reading showed carbon monoxide levels to be dangerously high. I advised boiler was unsafe and even a full strip down and service might not fix this, advised option of new boiler. Customer in a hurry to get to work and did not want me to carry out work there and then. She would not let me cut off gas supply so I issued a warning notice. Stated she would phone me back, which she did not, and I tried to contact her unsuccessfully over 2 weeks. When I did get through she said she was in a hurry and that she would speak to me later, which she did not. She is welcome to a refund, however I would not be prepared to take work from this customer again.

Review left on 7 Nov 2010Rating: 5 out of 5Moving a radiator100% positive feedback for Robert. He came along and did an initial inspection of the project, fixing a couple of other small problems we had while he was here. Then came back a couple of weeks later once the replacement radiator had arrived and did a great job removing the old one and replacing with the new. He had to lift the carpet and floorboards to complete the work and although I was a bit worried about this leaving a mess, you honestly wouldn't have known he'd been there unless someone told you it was that tidy! He was polite and thorough and I'd have no reservations recommending or hiring him again.Review from Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services Customer of R H Blair Plumbing Heating and Gas Services
