Boiler Installation
We install domestic oil-fired boilers, from replacements to full heating systems using Grant's award-winning range. Our OFTEC-approved engineers ensure compliance with regulations, backed by up to 7-year manufacturer guarantees. Installations include vented and unvented hot water cylinders for efficiency.
Oil Tank Sales
Supplying OFTEC-registered oil tanks at competitive prices, including waste oil tanks and diesel fuel tanks. We offer free surveys, relocation services, and emergency replacements. Temporary tanks are provided at no extra cost during emergencies to maintain boiler operation.
Servicing
Annual servicing for oil-fired boilers and bi-annual checks for AGA cookers to prevent breakdowns. We clean soot buildup, conduct gas tests, and inspect oil tanks for damage. Servicing ensures optimal performance and compliance with manufacturer recommendations.
Power Flushing
Power flushing removes corrosion deposits from central heating systems using high-velocity water and cleaning agents. This prevents cold spots, boiler noises, and circulation pump failures. We rebalance radiators and add corrosion inhibitors for long-term system health.
Emergency Repairs
24/7 emergency response for boiler or cooker failures. We provide immediate leak containment, temporary tank connections, and direct insurance company liaison. Our technicians aim to resolve issues on the same day or next working day for urgent cases.
