An air source heat pump installed at a Suffolk bungalow
Recent work Suffolk

Jobs, and what
was actually done.

In shortA short record of recent work. Photographs are taken on site as the job runs, which is why some of them are of the middle of it rather than the end.
A refitted kitchen with solid wood worktops
Melton · Cottage refurbishment

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, and the schedule was built around that.

A relocated cylinder and renewed copper pipework in an airing cupboard
Stowupland · Full heating renewal

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 continuous job rather than five separate visits.

An air source heat pump installed at a bungalow
Suffolk · Oil to air source

A bungalow taken off oil

Air source unit sited away from the bedrooms, flow and return insulated and run externally to keep the disruption inside down, emitters upgraded where the heat loss survey said they had to be.

A bathroom at first fix stage, pipework in and walls prepared
Suffolk · Bathroom

First fix, before anything looks like a bathroom

Waste and supplies set out to the new layout, walls prepared and the floor levelled. This stage is where a bathroom is either going to work or going to be a compromise, and it is the stage nobody photographs.

A water softener installed in a utility cupboard
Suffolk · Water treatment

Softener into an existing utility

Plumbed into the rising main with a hard tap retained for drinking, bypass fitted so the house still has water when it is serviced, and sited where the salt can actually be carried to.

A blocked heat exchanger coil before cleaning
Suffolk · Service

What a coil looks like after a few years

This is the reason an annual service is not optional. Airflow across a blocked coil collapses, the unit works harder for less heat, and the running cost goes up long before anything actually breaks.

"Our new bathroom fits our needs perfectly and they left the place so clean and tidy."

Zoe T

"Our new water softener has been a game changer. Sourced and installed so quickly."

Anthony M

"They updated our antiquated heating system. It has made such a difference this winter."
