“Got 3 quotes within an hour. Engineer came next morning, fixed the drum bearing and it's been perfect ever since. Would have cost me £400 for a new machine — paid £140 for the repair.”
“Really easy process. Described the fault, got contacted by two engineers the same day, chose the better-priced one. Turned out to be the carbon brushes — sorted in under an hour.”
“Machine was leaking and I was worried about the cost. The engineer diagnosed it as the door seal, gave me a fixed price before starting, and had the part in his van. Done and dusted in 45 minutes.”
