Services
Central Heating Installation
Design and installation of complete central heating systems using high-efficiency boilers with radiators or underfloor heating. Our Gas-Safe engineers conduct surveys and provide detailed quotations. Systems include SEDBUK A-rated boilers achieving 98% efficiency, with programmable controls for optimal performance.
Boiler Replacements
Supply and installation of combination, system, and heat-only boilers. We replace outdated models with energy-efficient alternatives, including Glow-Worm and Worcester Bosch units. Emergency replacements completed promptly, with magnetic filter installation as standard best practice to extend system longevity.
Solar Installations
Solar thermal and photovoltaic system installations compliant with the Renewable Heat Initiative. Thermal systems provide free hot water using roof-mounted panels, while PV installations generate electricity with grid export capabilities. We handle full system design, installation, and RHI tariff applications for ongoing financial benefits.
Electrical Maintenance
Full electrical installations and maintenance to 18th edition IEE standards. Services include rewiring, socket installations, and industrial/commercial systems. Our Part P registered electricians ensure safety compliance, with 24-hour emergency support for urgent fault rectification across domestic and commercial properties.
Powerflushing
Chemical cleansing of central heating systems to remove sludge and corrosion debris. Using Kamco products, we perform non-invasive procedures that clean systems without radiator removal. The process typically completes within one day, restoring system efficiency and extending component lifespan while maintaining clean working environments.
