  • New boiler

    Fitted our Worcester combi in a day and took the old tank out of the loft while they were at it. Dan talked us through the controls before he left and even stuck a note on the cupboard with the pressure it should sit at. Hot water by 4pm.

  • Boiler repair

    Boiler died on a Sunday morning with two kids in the house. Rang at 8, someone was here by half 10. Diverter valve. Had the part on the van. Proper job.

    Gareth P.Highworth · September 2026
  • Boiler service

    Booked the annual service online and got a text the day before with a time slot. Engineer turned up on time, put dust sheets down and explained what he'd checked. Price was what the website said.

    Priya K.Royal Wootton Bassett · August 2026
  • New boiler

    Good install and the price didn't move from the quote, which I was worried about. Only knocked a star off because the start got pushed back two days when their merchant was short on stock. They did ring to tell me though, so no complaints really.

    Mick T.Purton · August 2026
  • Radiators

    Three new radiators and the old ones taken away. The lad who fitted them was very tidy and moved all the furniture back where it was. The back bedroom is actually warm now.

    Helen and John W.Chiseldon · August 2026
  • Landlord certificate

    I've got four rentals and they do all the gas safety certificates now. They deal with the tenants directly to get in, and the certificates land in my inbox the same day. Saves me a lot of chasing.

FAQs

Questions we get asked a lot

Short answers. Call us for the long ones.

How much does a new boiler cost in Swindon?

As a guide, a straight combi swap starts from around £2,195 fitted, and conversions or system boilers with a cylinder cost more. Every home is different, so we give you a fixed price in writing after a free survey. These are example prices for this demo site.

Are you Gas Safe registered?

Yes. Every engineer who works on a gas appliance for us is on the Gas Safe Register and carries their ID card. You can ask to see it at the door.

Which areas do you cover?

Swindon and the surrounding villages, including Wroughton, Highworth, Royal Wootton Bassett, Purton, Chiseldon, Stratton St Margaret and Blunsdon. If you're just outside, ask anyway.

Can you come out the same day?

For breakdowns, often yes. We keep time free every day for no-heating and no-hot-water calls. Emergency call-outs run 7 days a week, 7am to 10pm.

How long does a boiler installation take?

Most like-for-like combi swaps take one day. Converting from a system with tanks in the loft to a combi, or moving the boiler, usually takes two days.

Do I need my boiler serviced every year?

Yes. Most manufacturers need an annual service to keep the warranty valid, and it catches problems before they turn into breakdowns. Landlords also need a gas safety check every year by law.

What if I smell gas?

Leave the property, don't use switches or naked flames, and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999. It's free and open 24 hours. Once it's safe, we can fix the appliance.

Why is my boiler losing pressure?

Most pressure loss comes from water escaping the system somewhere. Here's how to find out where, what you can safely check yourself, and when it needs an engineer.
