About High Cross

Small village on the A10 between Ware and Puckeridge — predominantly detached and semi-detached modern housing.

Detached and semi-detached modern.

  • Hard water and limescale
  • Listed and period property compliance
  • Older system boiler replacements

High Cross homeowners trust us for heating upgrades — here's why

Our heating upgrades work in Ware is built around three things: doing it properly, charging fairly, and being there afterwards if you need us.

That last bit matters — a lot of installers vanish the moment the invoice clears. We don't.

If something plays up in the first year, we come back and sort it. No quibbles, no callout fee.

Quick answers on heating upgrades in High Cross

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 power flush cost?

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

Will a smart thermostat actually save money?

Yes — typically 8–12% off heating bills if you use the scheduling and zone features properly. Hive and Nest both pay back inside two years for most households.
