Boilers and Heating
Boiler installation: A new boiler is a big decision, so we start with the basics: what your home needs, how you use heating and hot water, and what will give you the best balance of efficiency and performance. Once you are happy with the recommendation, we plan the installation carefully, keep disruption to a minimum, and talk you through the controls before we leave.
Boiler servicing: An annual boiler service is one of the simplest ways to keep your system safe, efficient and reliable. We carry out thorough checks, clean key components where needed and let you know if anything is starting to wear. You will receive straightforward advice on what to keep an eye on and how to get the best from your heating.
Boiler repairs and fault diagnosis: If the boiler is losing pressure, making unusual sounds or not heating evenly, we will investigate properly and explain what is causing the issue. For boiler repair work, we focus on clear options and sensible recommendations, with transparent pricing before work begins.
Central heating upgrades and gas safety checks: If your home takes too long to warm up or you have cold spots, there may be a practical improvement that makes a real difference. We can advise on heating upgrades such as control improvements and radiator performance changes, as well as gas safety checks where appropriate.
Bathroom Plumbing and Installations
Bathrooms get a lot of daily use, which is why good plumbing matters. We provide plumbing that homeowners rely on for both planned upgrades and the kind of repairs that stop small issues from becoming bigger ones.
Bathroom installations: If you are refurbishing your bathroom, we can support the plumbing side of the project, from shower and bath connections to pipework alterations and fitting new fixtures. We will help you plan what is realistic for your layout and water pressure, and we will talk through the order of work so you know what to expect.
Bathroom maintenance and repairs: Dripping taps, noisy pipework, poor drainage and unreliable showers can all point to underlying issues. We identify the cause, explain the repair clearly and leave the area tidy once the job is finished.
If you would like a quote for a bathroom installation, we can visit, discuss your requirements and provide a written quote that is easy to follow.
