Had a service contract with Steve Caunce LTD for a number of years, its usually the case when everything is fine there is nothing to report however this one incident left a bitter taste and we stopped using the company immediately. Thought we needed to report this for others S. C LTD has serviced our foul pump station for a number of years, on this occasion the engineer on site said you've got a small leak on one of the pumps and its an easy fix otherwise running perfectly fine as is. Received and accepted the quotation to remove the pump and investigate back at there workshop. To our horror this minor leak turned into full blown pump replacement job!! We asked if the pump can be put back and left running until it genuinely gives up but due to there "Health and Safety" rules they refused. This left us in a bit of a panic as we only had one pump running the foul station. To add insult they sent a repair only quote for 6.7K and a replacement cost of 14.5K. We decided not to be pressured and looked for other quotations and found that to replace the Pump with a top of the range flyGt pump only costs 5.5K. Crazy difference. I read on one of the reviews the the engineers are told to up sell a cheap service and then sting you on the back end. Moral of the Story: DO NOT TAKE THEIR ENGINEER COMMENTS AT FACE VALUE and be prepared to pay over market prices
