Services
Boiler servicing
Annual boiler servicing ensures optimal efficiency and longevity. Our Gas Safe engineers inspect gas appliances, check for leaks, and clean components to maintain safe operation. Regular servicing prevents breakdowns and reduces energy bills while complying with manufacturer warranty requirements.
Boiler installation
We install high-efficiency condensing boilers with 512 year warranties. Our Worcester Bosch accredited team assesses your home's needs to recommend combi, regular, or system boilers, ensuring energy efficiency and compliance with building regulations.
Powerflushing
Powerflushing removes sludge and scale from central heating systems using high-velocity water. This restores efficiency, reduces fuel bills, and extends boiler lifespan. We use Fernox equipment and add corrosion inhibitors for long-term protection.
Plumbing repairs
We address leaks, dripping taps, and heating failures with rapid response times. Our engineers carry common replacement parts to resolve issues during the first visit, minimising disruption to your home.
Bathroom installations
Full bathroom installations include plumbing, tiling, and fitting of sanitaryware. Led by Barry Thornton, our team designs functional spaces with efficient layouts, combining quality materials and precise craftsmanship for lasting results.
