"Sean was a fantastic, personable professional, who turned up quickly to the job, identified the problem, and got stuck in until it was done. He explained everything that he was doing to ensure I understood what was happening, and I was impressed with the end result and competitive service. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for servicing on their home."

I chose IJB for their "Free Estimates" but was charged £180. - £80 (1hr labor) for initial 25min visit. Trader claims I "didn't ask" for the free quote, but never disclosed fees beforehand. "Strip Down" Excuse: Trader claims removing a clip-on cover (30secs) is a "strip down" that invalidates the free estimate. Engineer ordered parts immediately without consulting me first. I was not given a price until after the order was placed, preventing me from approving the cost beforehand. Charged £180 for £20 parts + 45mins work. "Free Estimate" appear to not exist unless you use those "magic words".
