Burst electrical geyser

The claim was registered within minutes and the site visit arranged with the client. My client was full of praise — the plumbers worked into the evening to replace the geyser. Please pass on our thanks for how excellently this was handled.

They gave a time to come and arrived on time. Simon came on Sunday to solve the problem and even helped clean up the broken ceiling. Thank you for sending Simon and his team.

Kandua has been amazing for us. We've grown from 3 people to 9, moved from my house to a workshop in Bramley, and trained staff in geyser installation and roofing. Our quality has improved hugely through Kandua's standards. It's been transformational.
