I am an Electrician and decided to sign up to MyConstructor to supplement my work as a domestic Installer with NICEIC. It was obvious from the start that this was not going to work. I was inundated with spam emails from the company with no real clarity on how the whole system worked to the point that I got fed up and tried to leave. But not before receiving a call out of the blue one morning asking where I was?! A customer had apparently booked an EICR through the myconstutor website and yet I had no knowledge of this appointment?!? and to rub insult into injry they put a price of only £25 on this ( an utterly ridiculous price for an EICR- I charge between £100-180) which means after their 30% commission I'd come away with only £17.50???? I had to do a 1.5 hour round trip to get to the poor guy ( who incidentally travelled 2.5 hours up from Devon to get to his rental property to meet me and ended up having to turn around and go back again as unfortunately i wasnt available that day. It turned out OK in the end for myself as the customer was happy to go directly through myself in the end and pay my standard rate but he lost his £25 that he paid to mycconstructor. So as a tradesman my advice is - don't bother. And as a customer please PLEASE stop using these sites to book your work!! They charge huge commission and lead fees to the tradesman with very unfair rigid rules. I beg you just do this - Google - " electrician near me" PLEASE! Derek

ECP Assessor duped me into purchasing a floor plan saying now a legal requirement . He also made mutterings that standards had changed and that my house might move from a D to E...this became the conversation most of the time. He said the floor plans would be £75.00 whilst continuing to say he'd have to consider the rating. The next thing he started to ask for more money. I said £100.00 and, after more general banter, he said £150.00 for plans and that l would definitely get a D rating. The following day l had someone around to quote for a room in loft insulation only to be told his company charged £90.00 for an EPC and included the floor plan..he was shocked when l said l was asked for £150.00. I asked Assessor for £150.00 returned and was told NO...l eventually got through to a Jade Hessay at MyConstructor who refunded my initial EPC payment and said l was going to trading standards and National Landlords Association. I eventually received a refund for my £150.00 from the Assessor and said l want to speak the Christof about the lack of professional conduct of Assessors...l've not received any call or email.

The guy who had a good service ..I think you were just lucky. If I could give zero I would .I needed to have an electrical report to sell my house. I was in such a hurry to get the job done .I didn't check the reviews. Well I've certainly paid the price.£ 129 and an unsatisfactory report. He was there less than 45 min. So there is no way he could have done what he was meant to do. Do not use them..

Worst Service! Never Again Very unprofessional service! We booked EoT cleaning with them for a 1bed. The cleaning agent came in without a bleach or even a toilet brush both of which I had to buy for her. Looking at the small bag of equipment she brought with her, we were worried if they have even the things needed for EoT cleaning. When asked she assured that she has done a lot of EoT cleanings and she will get our deposit back. The check-out was conducted by a professional the next day and they called it "domestic" cleaning and the photos clearly showed limescale in kitchen and bathroom and even the water marks left behind. We got the checkout report after a week and when we raised this with myconstructor they said we can't help after 48hrs, even though we clearly showed the professional checkout report conducted within 48hrs. Now our property manager is deducting from our deposit for a full professional reclean. Truly dissapointed with the service and also myconstructor support.

I strongly advise against hiring my constructor for any work. My experience has been extremely negative: 1-No Showing up for Appointments: They consistently failed to show up for scheduled appointments. 2. Payment Taken Without Job Completion: They took my money upfront and did not complete the job. 3. Customer Satisfaction Survey: Adding insult to injury, they sent a customer satisfaction survey as if they had completed the job. This company has been highly unprofessional and unreliable. Save yourself the trouble and avoid hiring them.

MyConstructor have bad business practices and buy reviews from trust pilot I have sent my evidence to trading standards and a local journalist to cover the scams that they pull with contractors and companies. They do not have a physical office so starting legal proceedings against them you will have to file in a high court and apply for an order to freeze their bank account as they have no office to attend to recover the money. The people who work for them have Britain’s accents but they are based in Greece. I will post the website where customers can build a forum for the scams and file legal proceedings against the scams for the past 5 months have evidence of the scams hopefully they pay everyone the money they owe and I shall be contacting companies house and the VAT office as their companies accounts will more than likely be forged with scammed money. This website is the true reflection of the practices and trust pilot cannot continue to allow fake reviews on the platform. See Christos the dodgy CEO in court!

I've used this website The electrician Owen came round Friendly guy Needed a electrical certificate All done in less than day for £100 with certificate. I can sell my house now Much appreciated Not sure why there is bad reviews here, must be old reviews and this company must of changed their attitude. Remember there is people who can give a company bad reviews because they can't be arsed, not the company fault

Booked an appointment via myconstructor.co.uk and the guy never showed up and never answered his phone. Tip: Use PayPal.

was a victim of this scam, this company took my hard earned money, to be very honest it was not easy meeting different acclaimed recovery person for help to recover my money, as God may have it, I was lucky to meet Philip recovery 247 at writeme DT com (he's email). Who helped recover my lost funds in just 48, I almost thought I have lost it all until I met him. I personally recommend him to you.

Realy strange .

Avoid. Every contractor booked 9am and every single one pushed back. Like I have time as a landlord to sit in vacant properties for hours waiting because their self employed workers want a lye in Appauling.

Absolute waist of time, booked an appointment with 2 weeks notice, revived a phone call on the Saturday afternoon before the Monday appointment saying the couldn't find a contractor to cover the appointment. They had 2 weeks to look but only started looking the Friday before a Monday appointment. It then turns out they don't cover our location despite the website saying they do. Shocking service avoid at all costs

Been ripped off left right and centre - missed appointments, cancelled appointments, workman stole my luxury vinyl tiles, one even complained that he wasn't paid enough and wanted an additional cash top up - some of their practices are illegal. I would not recommend them to any one.

We are gas engineers and we just received a call out of the blue, we’ll voice mail from this company asking us to put a job in the diary for Saturday at 09.00 for £50.00 to repair boiler in BR 5 area . We do not work for them never have so if you as a customer use them they do not actually book anyone in, they just leave message on contractors phone numbers and hope that someone will turn up .

Can't say I'm over impressed with this firm, we are over eighty years old, they left us without central heating for three and a half days in temperatures of -6 degrees. We eventually found a PLUMBER a good plumber by chance, I definitely not would not use this firm ever again. They are Full of worthless promises.
