Customer service is really good and staff are polite and thorough. Job was complete efficiently and quickly and have no complaints about the work. The only negative is it’s very expensive. I paid £300... See more

Fitted new soil pipe from existing pipe work to bathroom which I discovered had come apart two days later because of the smell. Reconnected it myself and cleaned mess up. Had air the rooms out for days. Not a good experience would not recommend to others. Have taken photos.
Would give zero stars
Would give zero stars. Attended property 4 times and failed to rectify basic fault.
Had to get another company out to resolve issue who fixed it in 5 mins
Do not use they are a bunch of charlatans disguised as engineers
Timely and Efficient Service
Confirmed booking and updates on arrival time enabled minimal disruption to our household. Very pleasant and efficient engineer.

Steer clear of this company!
Our gas boiler recently broke down and we saw this company advertised in our local village gazette. The local number and the lay-out suggested it was a local, family concern. We found out later that it wasn’t! Very misleading. It was a firm miles away! Consequently the Gazette cancelled their advert forthwith having had several other complaints.
Rightio sent an engineer who inspected the boiler and then diagnosed a faulty pump. It was clear that he didn’t have a clue what he was doing, confirmed subsequently when his diagnosis proved to be wrong.
We complained to Rightio and received a reply but when we challenged this several times we heard nothing more.
What a pity we hadn’t read the reviews beforehand particularly from the BBC programme The One Show!
The engineer wouldn’t proceed further unless we agreed to wreck a bedroom to locate a zone valve, even though I assured him that our system was a very simple one that didn’t need such a valve. (I am an advanced plumber and have lived with our heating system for 30 years). Not being satisfied with our assurance he left without further action and we were charged £226 for his visit. This was supposed to be a reduced price for OAPs. We think it was a scam to rip off the elderly having first asked our age!!
A local gas engineer recommended by a neighbour subsequently came, replaced the gas valve and had the boiler working perfectly at a very reasonable cost. He remarked that the pump was in excellent order!
Use this firm at your peril!

Booked a day off of work to have my boiler repaired. 20 minutes after the due arrival time I received a call from Rightio saying the engineer had attended my property and there was nowhere to park. That was a blatant lie as I had checked the parking situation. I live at the end of a cul de sac and all my neighbours were out. There are no parking restrictions.The call centre said they would contact the engineer to come back but I don't feel any confidence in having a dishonest person working on my boiler now. If there was some genuine reason why they couldn't attend then they should be honest and not try to blame me for their problem. Don't take time off work expecting them to turn up. Don't book them at all.
Overall ok but unable to deal with my problem
Plumber arrived a few hours after I reported water coming out of a pipe which I didn't have the knowledge or kit to repair myself. He unfortunately was unable to effect a repair as he thought a pipe was blocked, but his equipment was not sufficient to reach the blockage and suggested I use a specialist firm like Dyno Rod instead. He did at least waive all charges as he wasn't able to effect a repair, but I had to call the firm again the next day as they sent me a request for payment. In fairness they did cancel the payment request without any quibbling or pushback. Four stars as they were fairly effective overall but unable to carry out the work needed due to unforseeable circumstances.
Excellent service
Excellent service, very quick response, job done quickly no messing, very happy

Stu fixed our boiler quickly and efficiently. His communication between appointments was great and he’s a friendly guy.
Professional plumbers
Rightio was very professional and polite the job was done professionally. The only one criticism is that would have been nice to know the night before what time the plumber was coming around with it being an early appointment. But pleased with the job the plumber has done
So unhelpful
I was having trouble with my toilet cisterns. The plumber arrived and after very little time inspecting the toilets advised me that i need a soft water system. That was the sum total of his help, for which Rightio charged me £182.00. When i called my local plumbers, they discovered that the inlet valve was blocked and proceeded to change it. They were friendly and helpful and of course i will always use them in future and never trust Rightio again.

Kitchen sink repair
Rightio were professional, prompt, communication and paperwork was good and Elias, the {young} engineer, was competant. I had a leaking kitchen sink gasket which I couldn't fix myself and Rightio got us out of fix.
Avoid!
The good: errrr
The bad: not a local firm as implied in their local mag adverts. Our local mag has now removed the advert due to many complaints. Shady practice of showing local numbers when they are a national company.
They take card details and payment up front to book an engineer visit.
The engineer said he could not sort the problem without knocking into an upstairs wall. Later another company fixed the boiler, in the boiler, and verified there was nothing in the wall!
Total cost was over £200 to get a wrong opinion from an engineer.
Looks like a scam aimed at older folks.

Got Ripped off DON’T BE NEXT
The company sent a plumber to my house. He provided no quote, did no work and charged my credit card £176.40. I then got an email saying that my job had been completed. When I called to ask for a refund I was told a senior member of staff would call me back within 48 hours. No one called and I have called them back twice more and told someone would call me back within 24 hours. 5 days later still waiting. Referred to my credit card company as a fraud claim. Job no. 7324739.
No contact from this company. It is documented on their own system that no-one has attempted to contact me. The only contact has been from me to them.

The plumber who came was efficient and helpful, but the price charged for exorbitant. I would not use this company again. My neighbour, who had a similar problem in the same week, was charged 30% of the charge made by Rightio and the work carried out was excellent.

Stu carried out the work with no fuss and no problem, smashing job. Would be happy to recommend him in the future.
Poor Service and No Show. Cowboys.
It’s been a month and the job still isn’t done. I signed up to pay for the insurance and they only have one guy in the area who refuses to come. Cowboys.
Dont trust this company
Contacted about a blocked drain. Company accepted the job, arranged a time and convinced me to sign up to their insurance as would lead to a discounted price. On day of job they phoned to cancel - not rearrange. They dont have an engineer in our area. Turns out they sub-contract and clearly couldnt find somebody to do the job despite arranging a time etc. We now have to find somebody else and have 3 days entirely wasted. No apology, no real explanation. Have told them to cancel the care club insurance and will be looking out for any unknown removals from accounts as dont trust them to cancel
what a rip off
dreadful rip off nearly a thousand pounds to flood a room and have a rude indian threaten me with the police DO NOT USE 10 times worse than when we started
