Why we're a sensible choice for boiler installs in Hockerill

Three things Bishop's Stortford customers tell us they value: we turn up when we say we will, we explain things in plain English, and we don't try to sell you anything you don't need.

Hard water in CM23 means we strongly recommend a magnetic filter and limescale inhibitor on every install — heat exchanger failures from scale are common after 4–5 years without one.

Everything we do is Gas Safe registered, fully insured, and backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

About Hockerill

Older Stortford district with Victorian and Edwardian terraces — flue routing requires careful planning.

Strong mix — Victorian terraces in the old centre, post-war housing in Thorley, and large new-build estates expanding north.

  • New-build combi boilers approaching first major service interval
  • Victorian terrace flue routing constraints
  • Hard water from the chalk aquifer accelerates scale build-up in heat exchangers

  • Up to 12-year manufacturer warranties
  • 5-star reviews on Google & Checkatrade
  • Magnetic filter fitted as standard

From first call to handover — our boiler installs routine

1

Site visit

We measure up, check radiator output, and confirm the gas pipe size is right — undersized supply pipes are the most common reason boilers underperform after install.

2

Quote & options

Two or three boiler options at different price points so you can pick what fits your budget.

3

Install

Old boiler removed, new one fitted, system flushed, controls set up. Usually a single day for a straight swap, two for a full system change.

4

Aftercare

Annual service reminders, plus a real human at the end of the phone if anything plays up.

Frequently asked questions — boiler installs, Hockerill

Do you charge more on weekends?

Saturdays are charged at our standard day rate. Sunday emergency callouts carry a small uplift — we'll tell you the exact figure before you commit.

Can I book a routine service for a Saturday?

Yes — Saturdays are popular for services and CP12s, so book a couple of weeks ahead if you can.

How long does a boiler install take?

A straight combi swap is usually one day. A boiler relocation, conversion, or full system change is typically 1–3 days.

Do you take the old boiler away?

Yes — old boiler, packaging and any redundant parts are removed and disposed of properly at no extra cost.
