Why Wheathampstead customers pick us for boiler installs

We've been doing boiler installations in Hertford 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.

Hertford's medieval centre often requires conservation-friendly flue terminals and careful pipework routing — we plan this at the survey stage so there are no surprises.

Frequently asked questions — boiler installs, Wheathampstead

Where do boiler leaks usually come from?

Most common: pressure relief valve discharging because system pressure is too high, a perished pump seal, or a failing heat exchanger on older units. We diagnose properly rather than guess.

Should I turn the boiler off?

If water is actively dripping and you can see it pooling, yes — switch the boiler off at the spur, and turn the system pressure down via the filling loop if you can. Then call us.

How much does a new boiler cost fitted?

Most combi swaps run £2,200–£3,800 fitted depending on brand and any system upgrades. We give you a written fixed price after a free survey — no obligation.

Which boiler brand do you recommend?

Worcester Bosch and Vaillant for long warranties and parts availability; Ideal Logic Max for budget-conscious installs. We'll explain trade-offs honestly.
