We install modern central heating systems including combi, regular, and system boilers. As Worcester Bosch Accredited Installers, we offer up to 12-year warranties on qualifying installations.

Worcester Bosch systems
As accredited installers, we supply and fit Worcester Bosch boilers with extended guarantees. Our engineers commission systems with compatible controls, filters, and cylinders. We provide documentation, efficiency advice, and post-installation support including Gas Safe registration.
Power flushing
Our power flushing service removes debris and scale from heating systems to restore efficiency. Using specialist equipment, we clean pipework and radiators while adding corrosion inhibitors. This improves heat distribution and extends system lifespan, particularly for older installations.
