Gas hob installation
Engineer (Chris) booked for a gas hob installation. There were some problems he could not have foreseen which he dealt with efficiently and professionally. Clearly knew his stuff. Cost was reasonable and as quoted, so I would use JAR again. Happy customer.

My initial enquiry was made to “Poplar Plumbing,” which appears to have been redirected to JAR Mechanical. That is misleading -- the company is presenting itself as a local provider when it is not.
I instructed JAR to attend on Friday 30 January 2026 to: (a) replace an extractor fan; (b) check that radiators were functioning; and (c) resolve drainage issues affecting a bathtub and sink.
Their engineer wasn't able to complete the job because he had attended without the necessary equipment (a long snake drain, which I would expect to be in a plumber's toolkit in any event). They then invoiced me £342.00.
I was told that a return visit could take place the following day if I paid the invoice and a further £485.00. They refused to explain this figure, even though the only outstanding issue was a blocked drain. After I challenged this, the price was reduced to £90 + VAT.
After I left a negative review on Trustpilot, they threatened me that they would not return to complete the work unless I removed it. That was completely inappropriate.
I was desperate to get the bath draining, so I paid the invoice and deleted the review. Their engineer failed to show up as arranged on Saturday morning, and I was unable to contact anyone at the company by telephone or email so had to wait around at home until I gave up.
When an engineer eventually attended, he remained for less than an hour and showed me photographs of some hair removed from the drain. I confirmed by email that it looked as if the bath was draining normally. However, within a week, the bathtub was again not draining, indicating that the issue was not properly resolved.
As a result, I now need to instruct another plumber to complete the work. Meanwhile, JAR Mechanical are harassing me for payment of their £90 + VAT bill even though they didn't finish the job properly.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS

£6,000 quote for a leak fixed by a different company on the same day for £150
Rafal attended my property to assess a leak on one of the radiator valves I had identified. No repair was carried out during the visit, but I was charged £114 for providing a quote. I did not request a boiler service unless it was directly related to the leak, which is reflected in the recording.
The quote provided by Rafal to resolve the issue was £5,000–£6,000.
I subsequently had the same leak repaired by a different company on the same day for under £150. The issue was straightforward and could have been resolved during the initial visit.
Rafal later suggested I find another engineer, noting that they would likely provide a different quote. The issue was then resolved for £150, compared to the £5,000–£6,000 "estimate" provided by Rafal.
It is also worth noting that a boiler service should not typically be carried out when there is a known leak.
I would avoid.

Dear Chas Kirby,
Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience with JAR Mechanical. We regret to hear that you were dissatisfied with our service and pricing.
To clarify, the invoice issued reflects the fixed price for the boiler service originally requested. We have a call recording confirming this booking and have not charged you for the additional time spent investigating the pressure loss.
Following our inspection, we provided a quote for the recommended repairs. The decision to proceed with these works is entirely at your discretion, and we support our clients in seeking alternative estimates if they prefer.
While we appreciate your input, we maintain that the charges for the services rendered are fair and accurate. We believe your comments regarding our conduct are unjustified and find such feedback unreasonable.

JAR Mechanical

Nearly a whole week of calling them twice a day to keep getting told I would get a call back. 6 days ago I was told it could be done 'tomorrow'. Finally got a call to say they have no availability at all. Very rude to waste someones time like that

Dear Miss Neesha Spence,
Please accept our sincerest apologies for the unacceptable experience you have had trying to schedule service with us. We deeply regret the wasted time and frustration caused by the repeated failed promises of a callback and the lack of clarity regarding our availability.
We understand that you were repeatedly told you would receive a call back, and that you were explicitly advised six days ago that service could be done the following day, only to finally be informed that we have no availability. This level of miscommunication and inconvenience is unacceptable, and we recognise how frustrating and rude it was to waste your time in this manner.
We are reviewing our internal processes to ensure that all team members provide accurate information about scheduling and availability, and that communication is handled promptly and professionally moving forward.
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.
