Services
Boiler Repairs
Our Gas Safe engineers diagnose and repair all boiler types, ensuring safe and efficient operation. We service combi, system, and traditional boilers, addressing leaks, ignition failures, and pressure issues. Annual servicing extends boiler lifespan and maintains warranty validity.
Power Flushing
This procedure removes sludge and scale from central heating systems using high-velocity water flow. It restores radiator efficiency, reduces boiler strain, and prevents recurring breakdowns. Recommended every decade or when installing new boilers.
Window Repairs
We fix double-glazed units with condensation, broken seals, or damaged frames. Services include hinge adjustments, lock replacements, and draught-proofing. UPVC expertise ensures weather-tight, secure windows without full replacement costs.
Conservatory Restoration
Specialists address leaking roofs, misted glass, and misaligned doors in conservatories. We replace polycarbonate panels, reseal joints, and adjust hardware to restore functionality and energy efficiency for year-round usability.
Door Repairs
Our UPVC locksmiths repair residential and commercial doors, fixing locks, hinges, and alignment issues. We replace damaged glass panels and adjust frames to eliminate draughts while maintaining security and aesthetic appeal.
