Warm houses.
Warm buildings.

What we do Oil boilers, air source heat pumps, plumbing and bathrooms across Suffolk. Homes, and the commercial buildings that have to stay warm while people are still using them.

01 · The work

We install and service the systems a building depends on, and we leave them working properly.

Heat pumps, oil fired boilers, hot water, bathrooms and the pipework behind all of it. New builds, renovations, and the jobs somebody else has already had a go at. Every install is commissioned, balanced and tested before we leave, and you get told what actually needs doing rather than what is easiest to sell.

Some of it is houses. The rest is buildings somebody else is responsible for: let property, managed premises, refurbishments running to a programme. Same trade, different paperwork, and the paperwork is part of the job rather than an afterthought.

03 · Commercial

Buildings that
cannot be
turned off.

A commercial job is the same pipework and the same combustion as a house. What changes is everything around it: the building is occupied, the work has to fit an access window rather than a day, and somebody other than the occupier is signing off the invoice.

So the plant goes on an annual schedule and gets booked in rather than rung about, the readings and settings are written down on every visit, and anything we can see coming is priced separately so it can be budgeted instead of sprung on you in December.

04 · Renewables

Heat pumps,
specified honestly.

A heat pump is only as good as the system it is asked to heat. We survey the property first, size the unit to the measured heat loss rather than the sales brochure, and tell you up front which emitters and pipework need upgrading. That conversation is cheaper than a cold winter.

A 17th century cottage, brought up to letting standard

New heated towel rail, solid wood worktops, a replacement summerhouse roof and a damp proof membrane to the front wall. Old buildings rarely give you a straight run at anything.

Boiler out of the kitchen, into the loft

Every radiator replaced and repositioned, all copper pipework renewed, and the wet room converted to a shower and bath in brushed brass. Done as one job rather than five visits.
