Boiler Servicing
Our Gas Safe engineers perform comprehensive boiler servicing to ensure optimal performance and safety. This includes checking gas pressure, flue emissions, and component functionality while providing detailed written confirmation. Regular servicing extends boiler lifespan, reduces energy costs by up to 10%, and maintains warranty validity. We use manufacturer-approved parts and follow strict safety protocols for all gas systems.
Emergency Plumbing
Available 24 hours a day for urgent issues like burst pipes, heating failures, and gas leaks. Our rapid response team guarantees arrival within one hour of contact, equipped to handle full system breakdowns and emergency leaks. We prioritise safety checks for gas appliances and provide temporary solutions while implementing permanent repairs to minimise disruption for domestic and commercial clients.
Gas Safety Certificates
Professional gas safety inspections for residential and commercial properties, completed within 30-60 minutes. Our engineers verify appliance safety, check for carbon monoxide leaks, and issue official CP12 certificates. Required for rental properties, these inspections ensure compliance with HSE regulations while maintaining occupant safety through thorough system evaluations and documentation.
Boiler Replacement
Energy-efficient boiler installations with brands like Worcester Bosch and Vaillant. Our engineers assess heating requirements and recommend appropriate models, handling complete system replacements including pipework modifications. We offer free quotations with transparent pricing, and all installations include 5-year warranties. Upgrades typically reduce energy bills by 20-30% while improving system reliability.
Powerflushing
Specialist system cleaning to remove sludge and scale buildup from central heating systems. Using proprietary chemicals and high-velocity equipment, we restore circulation efficiency, eliminate cold spots in radiators, and prevent boiler breakdowns. Recommended every 5-10 years, this service improves heat output by up to 15% and extends system lifespan while maintaining optimal operating pressure.

Rich came to fit the water and waste pipes for my dishwasher yesterday. He was thorough, fast and friendly. He left my kitchen clean and tidy and plumbed in the new dishwasher too.

I am looking after an empty property. I was contacted by the EGP plumber to let him in to effect a repair at an arranged time. This went smoothly and the plumber again contacted me when the work was finished and the heating system was back up and running. Perfect! Friendly helpful plumber ( another Norman). Norman R
