In detail

What happens at each step

1. Getting in touch

Call us on 0161 826 6000, message us on WhatsApp, or send a request through our website. WhatsApp is often quickest, because you can send a photo or video of the problem, which helps us understand the job before we arrive.

2. Your booking, confirmed by text

As soon as your job is booked, our system texts you the details: the day and your estimated arrival time. Every text we send includes our WhatsApp link, so you can reach us in one tap. No scribbled notes, no "we'll call you back".

3. Parts or a return visit (if your job needs them)

Sometimes our engineer finds parts are needed, or a follow-up visit. When that happens, you hear the same day, you get a text once parts are ordered, and another with your return visit date and estimated arrival time.

4. A reminder the day before

The day before your job, you get an automatic text to remind you it's booked for tomorrow.

5. The "on the way" text

On the day, you get a text when our engineer sets off. We don't send live map tracking. Instead, every text we send includes our WhatsApp link, so if you want to know where our engineer is, just message us. Our vans have trackers, so the office can tell you.

6. Safe work, recorded

Before starting, our engineer signs a safe work method statement for the job. During the work, they take photos, so there's a clear record of what was done. That's especially useful for pipework that ends up hidden behind walls or under floors. Your job card and the photos are emailed to you.

7. Your invoice, by email

Your invoice is emailed to you. Pay by bank transfer, or through a secure Stripe card payment link, by phone or online. Your receipt comes by email too. No paper invoices, no awkward cash.

8. If we can't reach you

If we try to call and can't get through, we'll text you to say so and ask you to call us back. You're never left wondering whether we've been in touch.

What you get

Built around you, not the paperwork

Your job card, photos of the work, invoice and receipt all arrive by email. Nothing to lose in a drawer.

“A friend recommended QuickServe Plumbing so I called them. Within minutes they messaged me with an approximate time the plumber would arrive that day! I then received a message with the exact time he would arrive. Cameron sorted the issue quickly, no messing! Highly recommend Quickserve for their lovely competent staff, efficiency and a job well done!”

“So impressed with this company. Had an issue with my boiler and they came out to look at it next day. Ended up needing a replacement due to age of boiler which was arranged quickly at a reasonable price, and the guys that came to install got on with the job with no fuss. Communication throughout was perfect with email appointment reminders and proper quotes and invoices. They registered the new boiler warranty for me and it was possible to pay by credit card which was appreciated for a big amount. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
