They will also provide a home delivery and installation service - just like their counterparts. The staff here are very reliable and talented and you can trust them with large scale purchases. Forresters is in a central location in Bedlington, just down the bank from the Red Lion roundabout. It is definately worth a look here if you are a local as you can't beat them for service, price and familiarity.

I recently called these to see if they could have a look at my grandfathers cooker. ( the door…read morewould not close). My grandfather is 85 and could find the problem. However, when they came out to repair it, all that was required was on screw needed tightening. This took the technician less than 30 seconds to complete. He then charged £48.00 to do this!!! I will definately not be using these again and would not reccomend them to anybody else thinking about giving them a call.

I used this company to replace the element in my oven. To do so they had to disassemble and remove…read morethe fan and then replace the whole assembly. This appeared to be a difficult operation and took a great deal of manual force to carry out. The actual 'hands on' work was performed by one man, who appeared to be inexperienced. An older man ( the proprietor)was observing him and giving him verbal instruction throughout. Immediately upon using the oven for the first time after this, the fan created a terrible rattle. Prior to the element being replaced, the fan had been fully functional, quiet and efficient. I contacted the company and, to their credit, the proprietor attended promptly to assess the problem. He examined the oven and informed me that there was a problem with the fan 'thrust valve' and that the fan would have to be replaced. I advised him that it had been fine prior to the element replacement and that any damage caused could only have been as a result of the engineers intervention. He admitted that there were problems getting the fan out, but denied responsibility for any damage, became very defensive and stated that he was not prepared to replace the fan at his cost. He would only fit a fan if I bought one from him, which I refused to do. He then packed up his tools and left my house, refusing to talk to me. My husband visited his premises shortly afterwards his opinion is that the proprietor was rude, sarcastic and unreasonable. I find this to be a terrible example of customer service and I would not recommend either the quality of the workmanship or customer service.
