    FAQ’s

    Choosing the right company to correctly service or repair your appliance is very important. Unfortunately, as many of the major manufacturers warn their customers, there are lots of ‘one-man bands’ who set themselves up as engineers working from home without having the correct training, tools or knowledge to correctly service your appliance. ALWAYS ensure that you are dealing with a professional company that is fully insured and have premises that you can visit and are not simply amateurs ‘giving it a go’ working from home.

    PHC is an award-winning, family business that has worked from the same, four storey premises, at 126 High Street, Rainham, Kent since 1999. We welcome personal callers; whether to book a service, drop their vacuum off for repair, buy a part or for just some friendly help and advice.

    Since PHC was founded in 1989 we have grown for more than 30 consecutive years and now have over 75,000 customers who trust the care of their vacuum cleaners to us. Our customers live across Kent, Sussex, Surrey, South East London & Essex. We have completed well in excess of 500,000 in-home services. PHC is now the largest independent vacuum cleaner service centre in the UK and also the proud recipient of two awards for both Best Home Services Business and Best Independent Vacuum Service & Repair Business 2023 for South East England.

    We have always invested in technology in order to provide our customers with the best possible servicing experience. We have bespoke systems such as –

    • A truly unique digital booking system which allows us to manage our technician’s time to ensure that they arrive as close to the customers appointment time as possible. Because we understand that your time is precious.
    • A purpose built dialler system which allows us to contact customers who are due their annual service in a specific area only to minimise our fuel usage and our CO² footprint.
    • A mobile, electronic tablet based service schedule system which allows our technicians to access a training schedule specific to the actual appliance being worked on.
    • A fully electronic service report system which allows each customer to have their service report emailed to them so they have a permanent record of the work completed on their appliance which cuts down on unnecessary printing.
    • Full exploded diagrams for each appliance instantly accessible via the service technician’s tablet.
    • The electronic recording of each appliance’s own unique service history

    Your vacuum cleaner does a very important job in your home.  Not only is it the main appliance responsible for keeping your home clean and hygienic but it also helps to protect thousands of pounds worth of carpeting and soft furnishing in the average home.

    We know that having an efficient vacuum cleaner is a high priority because for most consumers if their vacuum cleaner suddenly broke beyond repair then they would replace it on their next day off. If your washing machine breaks down then you can use a launderette but if your vacuum cleaner stops working you can’t take your carpets out to be cleaned!

    All vacuum cleaners suffer from blockages which vastly adverse their performance and causes the motor to overheat and wear out prematurely. A regular routine service both increases the vacuum’s efficiency and it’s useful life.

    Yes, all parts that we supply and fit are covered with a full 12 month ‘return-to-base’ warranty against manufacturers defects.  (This excludes consumables such as filters, bags, belts etc.)

    Absolutely not. A customer has the right to have an appliance serviced by any company they choose to providing that the correct parts are fitted and that a full written record is kept of the work carried out.

    Many manufacturers try to convince their customers that their warranty will be adversely affected if the customer chooses an alternative supplier. But in fact there are strict EU anti-competition rules which specifically prevent manufacturers from doing this. There rules were first put in place to protect the after sales market connected with the car industry.

    Certain manufacturers would have us believe that their vacuum cleaners are fitted with a ‘lifetime’ filter. But this is not true, unless they think that their product is to only last a few years. The purpose of a filter is to FILTER which, by definition, means that it must retain the particles that it was designed to filter. Whether it be an oil filter, an air filter or any other mechanical filter sooner or later it will become full with the particles it was designed to retain and need to be replaced.

    Most vacuum cleaner ‘lifetime’ filters are little more than a crude sponge with a screen mesh. It is true that they can be washed through a few times but eventually they become so impregnated with dirt that washing will not thoroughly remove the retained particles.

    In fact ‘vacuum’ cleaners are misnamed. Vacuum cleaners should actually be called ‘air flow’ cleaners. Nothing moves in a vacuum and vacuum cleaners rely on strong air flow to both pick up dirt and keep their motor cool. The cleaner the filters the greater the airflow which directly leads to increased dirt pick up and increased motor live.

    Unfortunately, we cannot service commercial vacuums nor domestic vacuums used commercially.

    Our Customer Reviews

    “Friendly and helpful”

    Booked an appointment online and had a call back to book a date. The person I spoke to on the telephone was friendly and helpful. My Dyson was serviced and parts replaced by Tom. He was friendly and explained about costs before completing work. My Dyson is 10 years old and had never been serviced. He did a great job and saved me the cost of replacing my model. Would definitely recommend.

    “Friendly Engineer”

    Friendly, professional and reliable. We booked a service with Tyler who arrived on time. The vacuum service was efficient and great value. We’d heard good things about PHC from neighbours and were not disappointed. Definitely a service worth using!
