Services
Boiler installation
We install high-efficiency Worcester Bosch condensing boilers with 512 year warranties. These systems exceed 90% efficiency, reducing energy bills and carbon footprints. Our engineers assess your home's needs to recommend combi or regular boilers, ensuring optimal performance for households of all sizes.
Powerflushing
Our powerflushing service removes sludge and scale from central heating systems using Fernox equipment. This restores efficiency, eliminates cold spots, and extends boiler lifespan. The process includes inhibitor treatment for long-term protection, addressing issues like boiler noise and high fuel bills caused by corrosion debris.
Plumbing repairs
We handle all domestic plumbing tasks, from leaky taps to radiator installations. Our engineers provide rapid diagnostics and repairs for bathrooms, kitchens, and heating systems. Emergency call-outs ensure urgent issues like burst pipes or boiler failures are resolved promptly with minimal disruption to households.
Bathroom installations
Specialising in complete bathroom installations, we offer tailored designs with tiling, sanitaryware, and plumbing. Our team ensures efficient, tidy fitting with budget-friendly options. Services include moving radiators and integrating modern heating solutions, backed by guarantees on all workmanship and materials.
Gas safety certification
We provide Landlord's Gas Safety Certificates through annual inspections of gas appliances. Our Gas Safe registered engineers ensure rental properties meet legal standards, identifying potential hazards and maintaining compliance. This service includes detailed reports and certification valid for 12 months.
