Just checked the Homeserve website, as, apart from on here, I've never heard of them.
They appear to be sellers of insurance and providors of services to claimants via retailers.
As such, they are HOPING, people will use their services when things go wrong and when maintenance is required.
This will not always happen.
Almost every suite we've cleaned for the past 10 years, at least , has carried the legend.............
Cleaning should be carried out by professional cleaners.....we recommend C/D - R/ bow - Stainmaster.......
So why am I, or you there ?
From my experience, the main reason is due to the cost of cleaning, quoted by the ' approved ' company.
Yes, I know, a few of you are just as expensive and ' GOOD LUCK TO YOU "
You, however, will be the ones competing ' head to head ' with Homeserve, while, others, more competetively priced and every bit as good at delivering a quality service, have nothing to fear,
Just the way I see it.....
