Services
boiler installations
We install natural gas and LPG boilers for residential and commercial properties. Our engineers advise on optimal system choices, including energy-efficient models compliant with Boiler Plus regulations. All installations include safety checks and Gas Safe certification.
central heating powerflush
Our powerflush service removes corrosion and limescale from heating systems. Using high-velocity chemical flushing, we restore efficiency and extend system lifespan. The process includes inhibitor injection for long-term protection, typically completed in 5-8 hours for standard systems.
gas safety checks
We conduct annual gas safety inspections for landlords and homeowners. Services include appliance testing, leak detection, and certification. Our Gas Safe engineers ensure compliance with legal requirements and provide documentation for rental properties.
unvented hot water systems
We design and install unvented hot water cylinders delivering mains-pressure performance. Ideal for properties requiring high-volume hot water, these systems require suitable mains supply assessment prior to installation for optimal functionality.
homebuyer surveys
Our pre-purchase inspections evaluate plumbing and heating systems for condition and performance. We identify potential issues with water pressure, drainage, and heating efficiency to inform property transactions and prevent future complications.
