    Full Central Heating Systems Designed Around Your Home

    A complete central heating system covers more than the boiler. It includes pipework, radiators, controls, and where required, a hot water cylinder. We design and install full systems for properties where a like-for-like boiler swap is not the right answer.

    System design is tailored to your property. A family of four all showering at 7am has very different hot water demands to a household with two bathrooms used at separate times. We size every system around real usage, property layout, and insulation, not generic specifications.

    Every job is handled in-house, from heat-loss calculations through to commissioning and Gas Safety Certificate sign-off. If you only need a like-for-like boiler swap, our boiler installation page covers that service in full.

    How Your Central Heating Installation Works

    From design survey to commissioning, here is exactly what to expect.

    1

    Design Survey

    We carry out a full on-site survey, calculate heat loss room by room, assess hot water demand, and plan pipework routes. The result is a system designed around your property, not adapted to it.

    2

    Detailed Fixed Quote

    Your written quote itemises the boiler, radiators, controls, pipework, and labour. The price is fixed before work starts, with no extras added during the install.

    3

    Installation

    A typical 2 to 3 bed installation takes three to five days. We lay protective coverings, remove waste daily, and keep the property tidy and accessible throughout the install.

    4

    Commissioning & Handover

    We balance the system, power flush where required, set up your controls, and issue your Gas Safety Certificate. Manufacturer warranty registration is handled on your behalf.

    When Do You Need a New Central Heating System?

    A new boiler is not always the right answer. If your radiators, pipework, or controls are at the end of their life, a full system replacement is usually the smarter long-term investment. There are four scenarios where we recommend it.

    You Have No Central Heating

    You are moving from electric storage heaters, standalone gas fires, or a property with no gas connection. A first-time install means new pipework, radiators, controls, and a properly sized boiler.

    Your System Is Failing as a Whole

    Multiple cold radiators, persistent sludge, repeated leaks, or a system that needs constant repair. At that stage, replacing the system is more cost-effective than continued patch repairs.

    You’re Renovating or Extending

    An extension, loft conversion, or major refurbishment changes the heating demand of your property. The existing system may not have the capacity or layout to heat the new space efficiently.

    You Want a Different System Type

    Converting from a conventional boiler to a combi, or adding an unvented cylinder for higher mains pressure hot water. These are full-system jobs, not boiler swaps.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    A typical full installation in a 2 to 3 bedroom property takes three to five days. Larger properties, full re-pipes, or installations involving a hot water cylinder can take longer. Your design survey will include a clear schedule so you know what to expect before any work begins on site.
    Cost varies based on property size, number of radiators, boiler choice, and whether the pipework needs replacing. A simple installation in a small property costs significantly less than a full system in a larger home with multiple bathrooms. Your free design survey is followed by a fixed-price quote with no hidden extras.
    It depends on property size, hot water demand, and the number of bathrooms. Combi boilers suit smaller homes with one bathroom and lower hot water demand. System and regular boilers work better in larger properties with multiple bathrooms or simultaneous hot water use. We confirm the right type during your design survey.
    Not always, but often yes for full system installations. Radiators must be sized correctly for the heat demand of each room, and older radiators may not deliver enough output or may not match the new system pressure. We assess every radiator during the survey and recommend replacement or retention room by room.
