Leaks, breakdowns and the everyday jobs that keep a home running. A prompt, tidy call-out service has been part of the firm since day one.

Warm floors, no radiators

Underfloor heating specialists

Underfloor heating is a signature of ours. Whole ground floors, single extensions, screed or timber floors. Every system is designed from the drawings before we arrive, so each room receives precisely the heat it needs, and every zone runs on its own thermostat.

πŸ“

Designed from your plans

Loops, zones and manifold position worked out from the drawings before we're on site. Flow rates balanced per room, not guesswork.

🌑️

Room-by-room control

Every zone gets its own smart thermostat, so bedrooms, bathrooms and living space each run at their own temperature and schedule.

πŸ’·

Efficient to run

UFH runs at much lower water temperatures than radiators: comfortable rooms with less energy, and it pairs perfectly with modern condensing boilers.

πŸ›‹οΈ

Frees your walls

No radiators means every wall is usable. It makes a real difference in kitchens, open-plan living space and bathrooms.

Emergencies during working hours are charged at standard rates, with no extra call-out fee; urgent jobs (major leaks, no heating or hot water, boiler breakdowns, gas concerns) are simply prioritised where availability allows.

Out-of-hours call-outs (evenings, weekends, bank holidays) are reserved for genuine emergencies and subject to engineer availability.

Materials are itemised on your final bill; a 15% markup may be applied to cover material expenses. Larger works (boiler installations, bathrooms, full projects) are quoted fixed-price in advance.
