Services
Boiler installations
We specialise in new boiler installations for gas, oil, and LPG systems. Our Worcester Bosch Platinum Accreditation allows us to offer 10-year guarantees on parts and labour. Our engineers assess your property's requirements to recommend the most energy-efficient solution, whether combination, system, or regular boiler. All installations meet current industry standards and building regulations.
Central heating
Our central heating services include system upgrades, radiator installations, and controls optimisation. We offer BS7593-certified powerflushing to remove sludge and improve efficiency. Our thermal imaging diagnostics help identify underperforming radiators. We specialise in both new installations and modernising older systems to improve reliability and reduce energy consumption across domestic properties.
Gas safety checks
We provide Gas Safe registered safety inspections for domestic properties. Our certified engineers check all gas appliances for compliance and safety, issuing Landlord Safety Certificates when required. Regular inspections help prevent dangerous gas leaks and carbon monoxide issues. We maintain records of all inspections and provide clear reports on any required remedial work.
Powerflushing
Our powerflushing service removes sludge and debris from central heating systems using magnetic filtration. This improves efficiency and extends system lifespan. We include thermal imaging before and after to demonstrate improvements. The process involves chemical treatment and directional flushing to clear blockages, typically reducing energy bills and improving heating performance across all radiators.
Emergency repairs
We offer 24/7 emergency call-out for boiler and heating system failures. Our local engineers carry common replacement parts for rapid repairs. Services include fault diagnosis, component replacement, and system recommissioning. We prioritise urgent cases with same-day response where possible, ensuring minimal disruption to domestic heating and hot water supply during critical failures.
