Domestic heating help
What our heating engineers can help with
We work on the whole wet-heating system, not just the appliance. That matters when a symptom that looks like a boiler fault is actually caused by a valve, pump, control or circulation problem.
Controls and valves
Thermostats, programmers, motorised valves, thermostatic radiator valves and heating controls that are not responding correctly.
Leaks and system changes
Heating leaks, pipework repairs, replacement radiators and practical upgrades to older central-heating systems.
For a boiler fault, see our boiler repair service. For a business, school or larger site, go to commercial heating in Lincolnshire. Wet underfloor-heating projects have their own underfloor heating page.
No heating?
Need help with a heating or boiler breakdown?
Heating or hot water stopped working?
If your heating has stopped working, your radiators are cold, your boiler is showing a fault code or your hot water has failed, our engineers can help diagnose the problem and advise the best next step.
We work on gas, oil and LPG heating systems, from small faults to larger repairs and system upgrades.
Boiler breakdown?
One of our heating engineers can investigate the issue and help get your heating and hot water back up and running. Our dedicated boiler-repair service covers common faults, safety advice and the details to send before a visit.
Heating issues
We can help with all types of heating problems
Boiler faults
Heating faults are not always caused by the boiler. We look at the whole system so we can find the real cause of the problem, including fault codes, lockouts, pressure issues, hot water problems and boiler breakdown diagnosis.
Cold radiators
One cold radiator is often a local fault such as trapped air, a stuck thermostatic radiator valve pin or poor balancing. Several radiators with cold bottoms, black system water or repeated circulation problems are stronger signs that sludge may be involved. We diagnose the cause before recommending cleaning.
Circulation problems
Pump faults, blocked pipework, valves not opening, poor flow and heating systems that struggle to heat evenly.
Controls & electrical faults
Thermostats, programmers, motorised valves, wiring centre issues and heating controls that are not responding.
Leaks & pipework
Heating leaks, radiator valve leaks, pipework repairs and replacement sections where required.
System balancing
Improving heat distribution so rooms warm up more evenly and the system works as intended.
Heating services
Heating repairs, upgrades and maintenance
Radiator installation
Supply and install, or install-only radiator replacement. We fit standard radiators, decorative radiators, vertical radiators and towel radiators.
Powerflushing
If your system has sludge, cold spots or poor circulation, we can advise whether flushing, cleaning or further investigation is the best option.
Thermostatic radiator valves
TRVs help control room temperatures and reduce overheating. We can fit new valves as part of radiator work or system upgrades.
Underfloor heating
Wet underfloor heating design and installation for extensions, renovations, new builds and overlay systems where suitable.
New heating systems
Full heating system replacements, new builds, extensions and heating upgrades in older properties.
Service & maintenance
Annual boiler servicing, unvented hot-water cylinder servicing, system checks, inhibitor testing and ongoing maintenance to keep your heating system working properly.
System protection
Protecting your heating system
Corrosion, sludge and water quality
Heating systems can suffer from corrosion, sludge and poor water quality over time. This can lead to cold radiators, noisy systems, pump failures, blocked components and boiler faults.
We can check your system water, advise on inhibitor levels and recommend the right treatment if your system needs cleaning or protection.
Cold spots on radiators?
Cold areas at the bottom of several radiators can be a sign of sludge or poor circulation. One cold radiator on its own may simply have a stuck valve pin, trapped air or a balancing problem. Send us the pattern of symptoms and we’ll advise the best course of action.

Heating FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Can you help if my boiler has broken down?
Yes. If your boiler has stopped working or is showing a fault code, we can arrange a heating engineer to diagnose the issue and advise whether a repair is possible.
Why are some of my radiators cold?
One cold radiator can be caused by trapped air, a stuck thermostatic radiator valve pin or a balancing issue. Several radiators with cold bottoms, black system water or repeated circulation problems are stronger signs that sludge may be involved. We diagnose the cause before recommending a repair or clean.
Do I need a powerflush?
Not always. A powerflush can help some systems, but it is not the answer to every heating problem. We’ll check the symptoms and advise whether cleaning, balancing, repair work or further diagnosis is the best option.
Can you fit new radiators?
Yes. We can replace existing radiators or install new ones, including standard panel radiators, vertical radiators, decorative radiators and towel radiators.
Can you work on older heating systems?
Yes. We regularly work on older heating systems and can help with repairs, upgrades, pipework changes, radiator replacements and full system improvements.
