Services
Boiler Replacement
We specialise in boiler replacements for inefficient or damaged systems. Our Gas Safe engineers conduct free surveys to recommend suitable models, including Vaillant boilers with 5-7 year warranties. The process includes system compatibility checks, safe removal of old units, and efficient installation. All work comes with a 12-month guarantee, ensuring long-term reliability and energy efficiency improvements for residential properties.
Central Heating
Our central heating services cover full system installations, fault diagnostics, and component replacements. We repair radiators, hot water cylinders, and pipework while maintaining Gas Safe compliance. The team addresses common issues like poor circulation and noisy pumps, ensuring optimal system performance. Regular maintenance services help prevent breakdowns, and we offer emergency call-outs for urgent heating failures across Northamptonshire properties.
Powerflushing
Powerflushing removes sludge and corrosion from heating systems using Fernox equipment and chemicals. This service addresses cold radiator spots, noisy boilers, and blocked valves by restoring proper water flow. We recommend it before new boiler installations to maintain warranty validity. The process typically takes 4-8 hours depending on system size, with immediate improvements in heating efficiency and reduced component wear reported by clients.
Gas Safety Certificates
We provide Gas Safety Certificates for landlords through annual inspections of all gas appliances. Our Gas Safe engineers check boilers, cookers, and fires for compliance with HSE regulations. The service includes detailed documentation of findings and necessary repairs. Landlords receive both digital and physical copies for tenant records, ensuring legal compliance. We serve both individual landlords and property management agencies across Northamptonshire.
Emergency Repairs
Emergency boiler and heating repairs are available with same-day call-out options. Our engineers carry common replacement parts to resolve issues promptly. Services include gas pressure adjustments, flue testing, and component replacements. We prioritise restoring heating during cold weather, with diagnostics included in repair costs. Customers receive clear explanations of required work before any repairs commence, maintaining transparency during urgent situations.
