Our heating engineers cover Leatherhead and the villages around it, including Fetcham, Bookham and Ashtead. The housing here is unusually mixed. Older cottages and converted properties sit near the town, post-war estates fill the middle, and larger detached family homes spread out towards the countryside, so very few heating jobs in Leatherhead look the same as the last one.
That variety is the reason we survey before we quote. The boiler that suits a two-bedroom cottage will be overwhelmed in a four-bedroom house running two bathrooms, and fitting the wrong size is an expensive mistake to live with for the next fifteen years.
We cover the full range of heating work in Leatherhead: boiler installations, boiler repairs, boiler servicing and central heating. You can also read more about our heating services across Surrey and south west London.
When a boiler fails we work out what has actually gone wrong rather than changing parts until it runs again. That is quicker and it costs you less. Common faults we see around Leatherhead are failed diverter valves, pressure loss from a small leak somewhere in the circuit, and pumps that have seized after a summer of sitting idle.
Getting a replacement right is mostly about the survey. We look at how many bathrooms are in use, how the household actually draws hot water, and what the existing pipework can carry, then recommend a combi, system or regular boiler on that basis. We will explain why we have suggested what we have, and we are happy to be questioned on it.
We service boilers across Leatherhead and issue landlord gas safety certificates for rented property. A service is worth having every year, both to keep a warranty intact and because most winter breakdowns give some warning if anyone is looking. We check the flue, the gas pressure, the combustion readings and the general condition of the system.
We install full heating systems as well as maintaining them, from a straightforward radiator replacement through to pipework for an extension or a loft conversion. Where a system is being extended we check the boiler can carry the extra load first, because adding radiators to a circuit that is already at its limit simply makes the whole house cooler.
