Start with your postcode. Leicester is inside our area, so you will go straight through.
The housing here
Leicester's housing is led by extensive Victorian and Edwardian terracing through Highfields, Belgrave, Clarendon Park and the inner suburbs, with interwar and post-war semis further out at Evington, Knighton and Braunstone, and city-centre apartments and converted hosiery factories in and around the Cultural Quarter.
The water here is hard — limestone country. Scale is the main thing that kills a combi's plate heat exchanger, and an in-line scale reducer at seventy-five pounds is the cheapest insurance you can buy on a boiler you want to keep for fifteen years.
What that means for your boiler
Not a template. This is drawn from what the housing stock here is actually made of.
The most straightforward stock we work in. The boiler is usually already in the kitchen on an outside wall, the flue run is under a metre, and a like-for-like combi swap is a comfortable single day. If there is still a cylinder in the airing cupboard, this is the housing type where converting to a combi pays off most obviously.
Bigger radiator circuits and more often two bathrooms, which is where combi sizing starts to matter. If both bathrooms genuinely get used at once, our quote will point you at a system boiler and a cylinder rather than sell you a large combi that will still disappoint you.
Usually a combi already, usually a short flue, and usually the simplest job on our list. The thing to watch is whether the flue terminates over a walkway or communal area, which is one of the questions we ask before pricing rather than after.
What you get
Leicester questions
Next working day installation is available in Leicester wherever we have an engineer free, and most jobs go in inside a week. You pick the date yourself on screen rather than waiting for a callback, and the calendar only offers days we currently have an engineer for.
If you have no heating and no hot water at all, tell us on the phone. We hold capacity back for that and will get to you sooner.
We cover Leicester with our own Gas Safe registered engineers in our own vans. We are not a lead site and we do not sell your details to a local firm. That is precisely why our coverage area is twelve postcode areas rather than the whole country.
It is hard. We would suggest an in-line scale reducer at seventy-five pounds to protect the heat exchanger.
Yes. Fifteen questions, ninety seconds, and a real number you can buy at. Every answer you gave is printed next to the price so you can see exactly what it assumes.
The only two things we cannot price from a questionnaire are asbestos and scaffolding. Both are excluded in writing and both come with a full refund rather than a surprise bill.
Fifteen questions and a real fixed number. If we cannot reach your postcode you will know on screen one.
