“The new algorithms have affected my checkatrade website for the worse if they don't change it I think a lot of members will be leaving checkatrade next year”

“Had a problem with my roller garage doors and contacted Hawkins Adept (the original installers). They came round the very next day and fixed the problem. Absolutely brilliant service. Many thanks to John.”
“absolutely dreadful..had one roofer company turn up .he wanted me to claim on his PL insurance??? ..another couldnt be botherd to look at it properly...just geussed the problem....unbelievable”
“Ive been a member of checkatrade for 5 years now and my plumbing business has been totally transformed it's the best thing I've done it's gone from getting 10 calls a week to above 50 if you are a tradesmen it's definitely worth the money”
“I mistakenly signed up to use Checkatrade to promote our Cleaning company. On 11th October I notified them giving 30 days notice (in writing) that I no longer wanted to subscribe to their services. Since then we have been bombarded with calls, emails and threats that we owe them further fees, despite me given them notice. Apparently they are the only company in the world that doesnt accept written notice but need verbal notice!!!!!!”
“Unbelievably bad company to deal with. Signed up with them to promote our cleaning business on a 3 month contract. No business at all from them so cancelled giving 30 days notice and cancelled DD. Since then they have been constantly harassing us and threatening us, as they say all notifications of cancellations should be by telephone!! Clearly every other company is wrong in insisting cancellation notices should be in writing.”
“Proline eco drives have just done drive and made a great job so pleased with it .Kevin and his crew were great nothing was too much trouble very polite and professional I would recommend them and use them again”
“I have been in contact with two central heating/plumbers in willenhall and kingswinford west Midlands for boiler servicing however both gave dates but neither turned up and no calls nor apology so won't be using the site again .”
“The most awful customer service for tradesmen, they charge a fortune and do not verify negative reviews. The small print states every account is under constant review basically forever. If a competitor complains to them anonymously they hold it on file against you without your knowledge then they suspend your account BUT still expect you to pay the balance of yearly membership despite doing sod all for it! FYI someone can complain if you are deemed to ‘park inconsiderately to others’ no I’m not joking!!!!”
“Asked a Check-a-Trade registered Joiner to replace floorboards (some creaking and broken) in my hallway.
He arrived and installed chipboard (9mm) on top of the floorboards I wished to be replaced.
When I questioned such, he stated "That's what we always do. Put down chipboard and use plenty of nails".
Is that correct? Seems strange to me. Why not use screws if chipboard is utilised?
Central heating pipes, should they need to be accessed, are now under two layers of boarding. The creaking has not stopped.
As it was Check-a-Trade, I paid him, although I now regret such.
Will have another Joiner examine the work.
Not pleased, as am a cardiac patient with a limited income and don't need the stress.”
“Total care home improvement.
Came out to repair leak on our roof!. Turned up on time nice guy explained the problem and provided photos. Etc!
