It was a big job in an old house, which included fitting a new water tank in the loft to provide a separate water supply to showers in both bathrooms. As well as re-tiling and fitting new bathroom furniture, they also took on refurbishing a very old airing cupboard, boarding it out, adding shelves and completely redecorating. They are polite and professional, I am very happy to recommend them.

After all, a new boiler is a major investment.

To do so, lag it using a cylinder jacket and insulate the hot water pipes inside your home. These are the ones you can see, not those under the floorboards and in the walls. Anyone who is looking to upgrade their central heating should contact us. No matter how good your boiler is, unless your radiators are in good condition with modern TRVs and valves, the system will be running poorly.

These can all be sorted very quickly, so please call us for a visit.

Electric showers are essentially are very powerful kettle inside an white box. This is fed from the mains and heats the water using a power shower ranging between 8.5kw to 10.8. The more powerful the shower, the more water you can heat at a time, meaning you would get more litres per minute. A mixer shower, takes hot and cold and blends them in a thermostatic unit in to your shower head.
