What we do

One team for the boiler, the heating and everything plumbed in between

From an emergency no-heat call-out to a full central heating installation, the work is carried out by the same Gas Safe registered team — no subcontractors passing the job along.

Why homeowners and landlords call us

A straight answer, a fixed price and a system that works

Most heating problems are made worse by delay and guesswork. We diagnose the actual fault, tell you what it costs before we start, and complete the work to Gas Safe standards. If a repair is not the sensible spend, we say so — and show you what a replacement would deliver instead.

  • Gas Safe registered — card shown on arrival, every visit
  • Clear pricing agreed before any work begins
  • Boilers installed to manufacturer specification so warranties stand
  • Landlord CP12 certificates issued on the day of inspection
  • Property left clean, old equipment removed

Tell us what the boiler is doing

Send a two-line description of the fault or the installation you need and we will come back with a clear next step and an honest estimate. No obligation, no pressure.

Open Monday to Sunday, 7am – 6pm.

Boiler packed in overnight and R1 had a new combi fitted the next afternoon. Clear price up front, no surprises, everything left spotless.
Sarah M.Walthamstow · Boiler Installation
Raheem diagnosed a fault two other engineers missed. Fixed the same visit and talked me through what had gone wrong.
David K.Chelmsford · Boiler Repair
We use R1 for CP12 certificates across six rentals. Always on time, certificates emailed the same day. Genuinely reliable.
