Services
Boiler Servicing
Regular boiler servicing ensures safety, efficiency, and longevity of heating systems. Our Gas Safe engineers perform comprehensive checks on gas, oil, and LPG boilers, identifying potential issues before they escalate. This service maintains manufacturer warranties and reduces carbon monoxide risks while improving energy efficiency to lower fuel bills.
Central Heating Installation
We design and install modern, energy-efficient central heating systems tailored to property requirements. Specialising in combination and system boilers from leading brands like Vaillant and Worcester, our installations include smart controls for optimal temperature management. All work complies with building regulations and includes 12-month workmanship guarantees.
Bathroom Design
Our full bathroom design and installation service covers everything from initial consultation to project completion. We offer sanitaryware from Ideal Standard, Grohe, and Roca, with options for all budgets. Our team manages tiling, plumbing, and electrical work, ensuring compliance with building regulations and providing water compliance certificates.
Power Flushing
Power flushing removes sludge and scale buildup from central heating systems, restoring efficiency and preventing boiler failures. This service addresses cold radiators, noisy systems, and frequent resets. We recommend installing magnetic filters like Adey Magnaclean Twintech to maintain long-term system performance and reduce energy costs.
Landlord Gas Safety Checks
We provide legally required annual gas safety inspections for landlords, including boiler servicing and certificate issuance. Our Gas Safe engineers ensure compliance with regulations, maintain appliance safety, and offer reminder services for annual checks. Additional plumbing maintenance can be completed during visits to minimise property visits.
