Common questions

Are your engineers manufacturer-trained?

Yes. Our engineers are manufacturer-trained across Rational, Foster, Hoshizaki and Falcon, and we are an authorised service partner for Blue Seal and Maidaid. Scotsman engineers are factory-trained.

Do you carry parts for these brands?

Engineers carry common parts for the brands we cover, so a high proportion of faults are fixed on the first visit. Where a part has to be ordered, we fit manufacturer parts, not cheaper substitutes.

Can you service equipment still under manufacturer warranty?

In many cases yes. For Blue Seal and Maidaid we are an authorised service partner, so warranty work can be handled directly. For other brands, contact us with the model and we will confirm.
