Services
Plumbing Repairs
We handle all plumbing emergencies from leaking pipes to boiler breakdowns. Our Gas Safe engineers provide rapid response for domestic and commercial properties, with transparent pricing for parts and labour. Emergency repairs prioritise containment before permanent solutions, ensuring minimal property damage while maintaining safety standards.
Boiler Servicing
Regular boiler servicing prevents costly breakdowns and maintains manufacturer warranties. Our comprehensive checks include gas pressure testing, flue emission analysis, and component inspection. Annual servicing improves efficiency, reduces energy bills, and identifies potential safety issues like carbon monoxide leaks before they become hazards.
Bathroom Installations
Full bathroom renovations include plumbing for showers, baths, and sanitaryware. We ensure electrical compliance for shower installations, checking wiring and fuse specifications. Our service covers tiling and finishing touches, with safety checks confirming all components meet current building regulations and manufacturer requirements.
Air Conditioning
We install and service residential and commercial air conditioning systems, including split units and climate control solutions. Our REFCOM-certified engineers handle refrigerant gas checks, filter replacements, and system diagnostics. Commercial installations cater to temperature-sensitive environments like server rooms and art galleries with precision humidity control.
LPG Solutions
Specialist LPG boiler installations and maintenance for properties without mains gas. We handle tank installations and system conversions, ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Regular servicing maintains efficiency while safety checks identify potential gas leaks or pressure issues before they become critical.
