Our story

A family business - by choice, not by chance.

NAC's branded engineer van fleet parked outside the head office

It gives us a great sense of pride knowing that our customers use us because they choose to - not because they're tied in with any third-party service contracts or warranties.

Launching NAC back in 2014, Adrian and Amanda wanted to build a national brand focused solely on direct business-to-consumer, out-of-warranty appliance repair. From day one they knew it would be tough - there were already several larger, established businesses in the market - so the key was to focus on repairs, not retail or sales, and to commit to building a trusted, reliable, national repair network of engineers focused on repairing appliances, not replacing them.

NAC are consistently rated "Excellent" on Trustpilot, with many thousands of online reviews - so you can rest assured that if you choose to use NAC, you're in safe hands.
