What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Households needing an alarm replaced or an annual service recur throughout the feedback for this Birmingham firm, and the engineers who visit are singled out by name. Gerard, Gez, Jack and Will appear repeatedly, described as knowledgeable, professional and good at explaining what has been done, with several reviewers noting that faults and questions were talked through in detail rather than left unexplained.

The work itself covers burglar alarm servicing, full alarm replacement and the sorting out of issues that followed building or decorating work, and a point made in several accounts is how quickly appointments are arranged and how efficiently the job is completed, including a full replacement carried out on an exceptionally hot day. Customers also mention Katie, who handled initial enquiries and gave advice on the right system before any visit took place, and the general impression is of a team that keeps people informed from the first call through to the finished installation.

Tidiness after the work, patience with questions and a friendly manner on site are described as consistent rather than one-off, and reviewers frequently confirm that the same engineer returns for later servicing, which they value. The knowledge shown on house alarm systems and the thoroughness of the servicing are the qualities most often highlighted, alongside the willingness to spend time on the details.

I required to replace my house alarm system, so with the assistance of Co Pilot CTB came up as top of the list for Birmingham Area. Lots of information and real good reviews on Google, didnt need to read all 500. Contacted them by phone and spoke to Katie who I found to be a very pleasant, respectful lady who after explaining the problem I was having with my present alarm , she was able to take time to explain and advise on what was needed and costs. I decided to use CTB and a booking was made with the work to be carried out which was within 3 days. 11/10 for Katie. On the day, call from Katie that the engineer was on his way and his name was Jack ,who arrived right on time. First impression was his vehicle which was clean and had company details. He introduced himself, and before entering the house offered to remove his footwear, didn't need to, but it was nice of him to offer. Found Jack to be an excellent worker, who was most respectful and friendly, He certainly knew what he was doing and explained as he went along what he was doing and showing me the faults and dangers that my old system had become. When he had finished the installation although there was no mess as he had tidied up as he went along, he was insistent on hoovering the areas where he had been fitting the sensors. Jack then went through everything I needed to know on the operation of the newly fitted alarm system. CTB should be proud of Katie and Jack and having them on the Company Team So for Jack also 11/10.
