Tidiness, Trustworthiness, Punctuality, Workmanship

Value

Description  He re gassed with the correct gas cylinder and also got the bottom part of the fridge to work.

Feedback  He had to fix work that was done by somebody else where he had fitted the wrong gas and then fix the work that I had initially called him in for. His response time was very impressive and the time he took to complete the work was prompt. I felt his pricing was a bit pricey but then again he explained to me what he needed to fox from the first tradesman which made sense. The Fridge is working perfectly still.

Feedback  He did an excellent job. He was quite quick and efficient. The stove that he fixed was actually at a house that I rent out to some tenants, so although I wasn't there to supervise him, the tenants had no complaints about him at all.

Feedback  He's great. Very friendly, knows exactly what he's doing. Took the time to explain everything because i didn't know much. So it is really nice to know why it is broken.

He was a bit late but i didn't really mind because it was such a good job and he used his time there very well. I will definitely use him again but hopefully nothing else will be breaking!

Feedback  Communication wise, it was quite difficult. He promised to be there at 5, after which I kept calling him, and he eventually pitched up at 9:30. He needs to be more frank about his availability. However, once he finally arrived, everything went really smoothly, and he did the job well.

Description  Kholwani serviced my old DEFY fridge and replaced the gas, at my home. He is efficient, friendly and clearly knows what he's doing. The job was done in under 15 minutes, on the same day I asked.

Feedback  Very efficient work

Tidiness, Trustworthiness, Punctuality, Value, Workmanship

Description  We make use of him for refrigeration services from time to time

Feedback  He is very good. Innovative with how he does his work as he will often source parts, second hand etc that we may not be able to find. If he's running late he will phone to tell us...he's very good like that. I've never felt like i've been ripped off with his pricing...i trust him to tell me whats wrong and then fix it at a fair price. He often sources things for us and charges just for the spare parts and not the time spent sourcing. The quality of his work is great on the whole. With these things, you often fix A and then B goes wrong and then you fix B and C goes wrong etc. Very rarely if there has been an oversight on his part he comes back to fix it.

Description  He's helped me out 3 times with an appliance. Once with the freezer, I forget what appliance it was the second time and lastly with our washing machine. For the washing machine it took him less than 48 hours to assess the damage, order the parts and repair it to working order.

Feedback  I called him 11am in the morning and he assessed it that afternoon. He ordered the parts that day, they came in the following day - He took the washing machine to the shop, brought it back fixed in the evening. Previously, with a different appliance repairer, I was stuck with a broken washing machine for 6 weeks! In a family with kids and a husband, a washing machine is a vital appliance. It's important that he was efficient, and he was!
