Why Felsted customers pick us for heating upgrades

We've been doing heating upgrades in Great Dunmow long enough to know which streets have shared chimneys, which estates have undersized gas supplies, and which boilers tend to fail first.

That experience means we get the spec right at the survey, not halfway through the install.

And we don't cut corners on the bits you can't see — proper pipework, magnetic filter, full system flush where needed.

Common questions about heating upgrades in Felsted

How often should I need to top up?

A healthy sealed system should hold pressure for 6-12 months between top-ups. Anything more frequent points to a leak.

Could it be the expansion vessel?

Yes — a perished expansion vessel inside the boiler is a common cause. We test the vessel as part of diagnosis.

How much does a power flush cost?

Typically £450–£750 depending on system size and number of radiators. We give a fixed price after a quick survey.

Do I really need a power flush?

If radiators have cold patches, your boiler is noisy, or you're fitting a new boiler to an older system, yes. Otherwise a chemical flush and magnetic filter is often enough.
