Coverage

Plumbing & heating in Ashford

Ashford has grown quickly, and with it the mix of housing we work on, from period homes in the older streets to new-build estates around the town and out towards the villages. Whatever the property, we cover the TN23 to TN27 postcodes for boilers, bathrooms, heating and general plumbing.

Plenty of homes in the villages around Ashford, places like Charing, Wye and out towards Tenterden, are off the mains gas grid. We look after LPG and oil systems too, LPG under our Gas Safe registration and oil as an OFTEC certified engineer, so rural Ashford properties are covered the same as those on gas.

Also covered nearby: Charing, Headcorn, Tenterden, Wye, Hamstreet. Postcodes TN23 to TN27.

Boilers

Boiler servicing and repairs in Ashford

An annual boiler service in Ashford is £90, carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer: combustion and efficiency checks and a full health check of the boiler, which also keeps a manufacturer’s warranty valid. Boiler servicing and repairs

24% of homes across the Ashford borough are off the gas grid, above the South East's 16%, so we service oil boilers under our OFTEC certification and LPG boilers under our Gas Safe registration as well as mains gas. LPG and oil boilers

If your boiler breaks down, loses pressure or shows a fault code, we find the cause and repair it, and if a repair stops making sense we will say so and quote for a new boiler from £1,850. Radiators that stay cold at the bottom usually mean sludge, which power flushing clears.
