These are scammers. They are not upfront about their costs and charge exorbitant amount for a small job. For changing a switch, they charged me £300. Do not use. Go with companies who give a fixed quote.

Writing this review as people only ever comment on the bad things especially if the company has had bad reviews in the past.
Plumber came promptly, allowed me to pass him to the landlord whose flat was leaking above mine.
Yes it’s an expensive service but the issue was sorted and they told me & upstairs the costs involved - if I’d have delayed it upstairs & their agents would have been able to ignore/not sort the problem which they have previously done. It could have comprised the electrics to not only mine but everyone else’s in the building.

If the upstairs owner did have to access the pipe himself via his it would have cost him a lot more in repair costs!

"DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! They are a total scam. Not only do they overcharge well beyond their quoted rates, but their staff is incredibly abusive. If I could give them zero stars, I would. Truly disgusting behavior—stay away!"

AVOID! Absolute scammers, they sent someone who didn’t know anything about plumbing. I wouldn’t give him the job after speaking to him as he gave me a ridiculous price for a 5 min job so he started shouting and demanding a call out fee. I was very stressed and they took advantage of this.

One of my tenants called them in a panic.

The leak was actually minor and under control, but these sharks deployed and plumber and gave her a bill for £800.

They obviously took advantage of a line female in a vulnerable situation. She got me in the phone and the scammer told me it wasn’t worth me coming out. Sensing something was wrong I set off. I just missed them.

There was a leaking waste pipe - not urgent. A 5 minute job to repair but they billed for 2.5 hours.

The repair was shoddy and had to be redone. An invoice on plain A4 paper. No real details.

Website has been operating for 9 months. Total scam.

Scam company.

The person that came made up fake problems and refused to fix the thing we called them for. They suggested that we would need a £1600 repair this was not true. Was able to organise a repair easily and quickly since the person left. Received a call back to explain that I was unhappy. Never heard back since then

Disgusting company robbing people blindly
£455 to fix a plug socket!!

Called and was told they would be there within 1 hour to check and fix a socket, their engineer came around 90 mins to 2 hours later.
Checked my socket said it was fine asked him to check the others he did this and changed a single plug socket. In the process he broke another(i wasnt aware of this until after hed gone.
After changing this and checking another he then said the office would call me, they did this within minutes, i was very shocked when given the price.
£455 for less than an hours work, £365 emergency labour, £60 call out and £30 materials!!
The engineer looked as shocked as i was, i reluctantly paid this and he left, ive tried to dispute it since and cannot get it back.
This firm need closing down ridiculous charges for poor workmanship!
Stay away from 24/7 fastfix.

If I could give 0 stars I would.
After ringing up today at 1 O'clock I asked if I can get an emergency call out within half hour as I had a severe leak in my wall( which I specifically said it needs to be half hour) After waiting 2.5 hours for this call out I managed to sort it via another company. As I rang back to company up to cancel the call out as it was not what we agreed. I got told to “F off” . Absolutely shambles customer service at its finest.

If could give no stars I would. Quoted 45 Pounds call out and pay for any parts and labour. Also had to pay the plumber who did the very simple job fitting a couple of washers 30Pounds for parts. Had to pay 195 Pounds more for the call out and labour. SCAMMERS and an utter rip off..Paid but feel ashamed of myself for falling for it..AVOID..

Absolute scam artists – avoid at all costs.

Quoted ‘£60 plus labour’ for a blocked drain. Plumber turns up, is here for 30 minutes, and somehow charges £535. An absolute joke of a company.

No specialist equipment was used to clear the drain at any point. Nothing that could remotely justify a charge anywhere near this amount.

Adding to the suspicion, a completely different man called to arrange payment while the subcontractor was still on site - and he wasn’t even the person I spoke to when booking the job. All very dodgy run company that exploits people in emergency situations and severely pressures into paying immediately.

When I called the next day to question the charge, the person on the phone was rude, dismissive, and deliberately cryptic, refusing to give straight answers or justify the cost. No transparency whatsoever and no official invoice provided.

It appears this ‘company’ operates as a middleman, farming jobs out to subcontractors while massively inflating prices and relying on customers feeling pressured into paying after the work is done. Classic bait-and-switch tactics.

The entire experience was deceptive and exploitative. They clearly rely on confusing quotes and vague explanations to overcharge customers. Do not use this company they are scumbags

Poor service no knowledge about work no transparency

Needed my en suite Saniflo looked at. They said I needed it replaced. They charged me £975 for a new one. When they came to fit it 6 days later they were here for 2 hours and I was charged £930 for 3 hours work plus a £45 call out fee. Never was I informed at any time they charged £295 per hour for labour. I still don’t have a working toilet as they said the drain is blocked and I need to call out UU. I am appalled by this company and its charges.

This company is a scam
Awful awful company. Told me the call out fee and then didn't tell me about labour fee. Was here 5 minutes and charged me £290. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY. they never came back called severally very rude staff avoid like a plague.
This company is a scam. Collected £290 + £49 call out charges for a 5 minutes, they never tell you for how much labour they will charge they tell u after 5 minute job. THEY ARE SCAM.

Absolute disgrace number one fraudsters stay away call them out to do a job fixing radiators when they left all the radiators complete stop working when most of them were working fine before their repair

Awful awful company. Told me the call out fee and then didn't tell me about labour fee. Was here 5 minutes and charged me £280. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY.

Unqualified cowboys with no equipment or trade skills charging £295 to ‘diagnose’ a problem that they can’t fix. Avoid.

This company is a scam. Collected £295 for a 10mims visit yet they never came back called severally very rude staff avoid like a plague.

Please don not use this company charged 129 ponds for just a visit and initially they said 55 pound for callout

I rang this company for a problem I was having with my oven tripping the fusebox. They said they would come and diagnose the issue for £45. An “electrician” turned up an hour later went straight to the fusebox and immediately said the whole thing needs to be replaced for £2100. He could not explain why this was the cause of the oven tripping and insisted that that was the problem. He then try to charge me an extra £60 pounds for “fault finding”. Shocked at this news and the cost, I then enquired with a few well reviewed electricians and they all said the guy was talking nonsense and that it would be half the cost to replace the fusebox which however was not actually the cause of the oven tripping it. These guys are are deceiving people inti overpriced works. Please avoid, you have been warned.
