Our Clients Love us
The retrofit guide published by Alexander Watson and handed over to us in the initial meeting, under “other necessary electrical work”, encourages customers to use their electrical services while the team is on site for other electrical jobs around the house. We wanted a sensor light installed, however, the electrician who conducted the electrical safety inspection initially did not agree with this. We had to persevere to get the sensor light installed, which was a little disappointing.
That said, we have already noticed a big improvement in indoor temperature, especially during the recent hot days and we are very pleased with the insulation upgrade overall.
We could feel the difference in temperature the day after the ceiling insulation went in and it does such a good job keeping the house cooler on hot days. We look forward to the house being much easier to keep warm when winter rolls around too. The ducted AC unit that was recommended to us works really well, is very quiet and the controller is easy to use or can be controlled with an app.
Would definitely recommend Alexander Watson, they know their stuff.
Insulation is excellent but the service and staff are what you pay for, they're all super friendly and helpful.
Insulation went smoothly over 2 days, you get what you pay for, premium service and super nice staff.
4 months post install we had an issue with a leak from the condensation pipe of our aircon in the roof, hadn't turned it on since insulation was installed so wasn't aware.
Wally from AWI came out 2 days later and fixed it on the spot.
Always a warm reception when calling, after instal service is amazing. Can't recommend enough.
We noticed an instant 3 degrees Celsius improvement in the house overnight. In the warmer part of the day, the house is much cooler.
They also had to follow up as they had forgotten to turn the solar back on during install. They were there the next day and had it sorted within an hour.
Additionally, post the install, it rained, there was a water leak through the range hood in the kitchen. Since they were last in the roof, I rang them, they came out in 15min, diagnosed the problem as a cracked tile that had been cracked by someone else and fixed with bathroom silicone, and that they had potentially disturbed the previously dodgy fix up job that they hadn’t seen by walking near it. So, even though it wasn’t something they did, they fixed it by replacing that tile and sealing the range hood exhaust properly. No extra charge. Amazing! Highly recommend this company to insulate your home.
To be honest, the experience was not a great one.
First point to raise is the constant email replies from different admin stuff. After correspondence with one team member, the following reply would be from a different team member. I found this frustrating. And then that new team member has not read the previous email (this would also be in a working day time frame).
Now the point to raise is of quality of work, they had only cleaned approx 80% of the ceiling, they spent 2 days (a Thursday and Friday). I know this because I cleaned the remaining missed areas including removing old batts on my Saturday so I could lay the insulation properly myself. If I hadn’t of laid the insulation myself and Alexander Watson returned to re-install, then I feel the missed areas would still remain and they would just install over the top. Additionally approx 6 tiles were broken, and they were only siliconed back together.
Now after email correspondence, and I assume with the manager, being told as a customer I should of raised my concerns on the Saturday so this company can return to do a quality check, I feel this should of been done at the workers level before they would of left the job site, then possibly another senior team member should of visited the job site post completion to confirm the work is done. This process has failed from the lowest part of the team. I’ll attach photos to this review.
Now we have both come to an agreement to a reduction in the invoiced amount.
