About Our Heating Services

Keeping Your Home Warm — Whatever It Takes

A properly designed and well-maintained heating system is one of the most important things in your home. When it works, you don't think about it.

Andy Lander has spent over 30 years making sure that doesn't happen for homeowners across Surrey and South West London.

Whether you're looking to install a brand new central heating system, upgrade an ageing one, add underfloor heating to a new extension, or simply get your existing radiators balanced and running efficiently — Andy has the skills, experience and manufacturer accreditations to get the job done right, first time.

Every heating job is approached with the same care and professionalism. You get an honest assessment, a clear quote, and work carried out to Gas Safe standards with full documentation. No shortcuts, no surprises.

Warm Air Unit Servicing & Repair

Warm air heating systems are increasingly rare — and finding an engineer with genuine expertise in them can be a challenge. Andy is one of very few engineers in the area with hands-on experience installing, servicing and repairing warm air units, keeping these older systems running safely and efficiently long after most engineers would have given up on them.

Heating System Repairs

Lost pressure? Cold radiators? Strange noises from your pipes? Andy diagnoses and fixes heating system faults quickly and effectively. With 30 years of experience across every type of system, Andy can pinpoint problems fast — saving you time, money and the misery of a cold home.

Emergency callout

Power Flushing

Over time, central heating systems accumulate sludge, rust and scale that reduces efficiency and can cause premature component failure. A professional power flush removes these deposits, restoring your system to full efficiency — reducing fuel bills, improving heat output and extending the life of your boiler and components significantly.

Heating System Upgrades

Is your heating system old, inefficient or simply not up to the demands of your home? Andy can assess your current setup and recommend a cost-effective upgrade path — whether that's a new boiler, upgraded controls, additional radiators or a complete system redesign. The result: a warmer home and lower energy bills.

System Types

Which Heating System is Right for You?

Not sure which type of heating system suits your home? Andy will assess your property and give you straightforward, honest advice on the best option for your needs and budget.

🔥

Combi Boiler System

Ideal for smaller homes & flats

A combi (combination) boiler provides both central heating and instant hot water from a single, compact unit — with no need for a separate hot water cylinder or cold water tank in the loft. They're the most popular choice for smaller homes and flats in the UK, and modern combi boilers are highly efficient.

  • Compact — ideal where space is limited
  • Instant hot water on demand
  • No cold water tank or cylinder needed
  • Highly efficient modern models available
  • Lower installation cost than system boilers
🏠

System Boiler

Ideal for larger homes with higher demand

A system boiler works with a separate hot water cylinder to store heated water, making it ideal for larger homes with multiple bathrooms where several taps and showers may be used simultaneously. The boiler heats water and stores it, providing a strong, consistent flow whenever it's needed.

  • Great for homes with high hot water demand
  • Multiple taps & showers can run simultaneously
  • Compatible with solar thermal panels
  • No cold water tank needed in the loft
  • Strong, consistent hot water pressure
♨️

Underfloor Heating

Premium comfort for new builds & extensions

Wet underfloor heating (UFH) circulates warm water through pipes beneath your floor, providing an even, comfortable heat across the entire room surface. It works at lower temperatures than radiators, making it highly compatible with heat pumps and highly efficient modern boilers.

  • Even, comfortable heat throughout the room
  • No radiators — completely hidden system
  • Works at lower temperatures — very efficient
  • Ideal for open-plan spaces
  • Compatible with heat pumps & condensing boilers

Warm Air Heating

Specialist service for existing systems

Warm air heating systems heat air directly and distribute it through vents in the home. Installed extensively in the 1960s–80s, they're now increasingly rare — but Andy is one of the few engineers in the area with the specialist knowledge to service, repair and maintain them properly.

  • Fast, responsive heating
  • Andy is a specialist in warm air units
  • Servicing, repairs and parts sourcing
  • Safety inspections available
  • Honest advice on replacement options if needed

Time for a Check-Up?

Signs Your Heating System Needs Attention

Don't wait for a breakdown to call an engineer. These are the warning signs that your heating system needs professional attention — the sooner you act, the less it's likely to cost.

Cold Spots on Radiators

If the top of your radiators is cold but the bottom is warm, it's likely they need bleeding. If the bottom is cold too, there may be sludge build-up — a power flush could be the answer.

Boiler Losing Pressure

If you're regularly topping up your boiler pressure, there's likely a leak somewhere in the system. Left unattended, this can cause serious damage to your boiler and pipework.

Unusual Noises

Banging, kettling, gurgling or whistling from your boiler or pipes is never normal. These sounds often indicate limescale build-up, airlocks or failing components that need attention.

Rising Energy Bills

If your heating bills are climbing but your usage hasn't changed, your system is likely working harder than it should — a sign of reduced efficiency that a service or upgrade could resolve.

Slow Heating Up

If it's taking longer than usual for your home to reach a comfortable temperature, your system may be struggling — possibly due to sludge, a failing pump or an ageing boiler.

System Over 12 Years Old

Even if everything seems fine, a heating system over 12 years old deserves a professional inspection. Modern systems are significantly more efficient — an upgrade could save you money every year.

Common Questions

Heating FAQs

For a typical 3-4 bedroom house, a full central heating installation usually takes between 3 and 5 days. This includes installing the boiler, all pipework, radiators, controls and commissioning. Andy will give you a specific timeframe based on your property before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Every year. An annual boiler and heating system service is the single best thing you can do to keep your system running safely, efficiently and reliably. It also keeps manufacturer warranties valid and can identify small problems before they become expensive ones. Andy recommends booking your service in late summer or early autumn — before the heating season begins.
Wet underfloor heating is most commonly installed in new builds, extensions and renovations where the floor can be lifted. It works with most floor coverings including stone, tiles, wood and some carpets. Andy will assess your home and give you an honest view on whether UFH is practical for your situation — and if not, he'll suggest the best alternative.
Power flushing is a process that forcibly circulates a powerful cleaning solution through your central heating system to remove sludge, rust and scale that accumulates over time. You may need it if your radiators have cold spots, your boiler is noisy, your system takes a long time to heat up, or if you're installing a new boiler onto an existing system. Andy will assess your system and tell you honestly whether a power flush is needed.
Yes. Andy has 30 years of experience working on virtually every make and model of boiler and heating system available in the UK. He holds manufacturer accreditations from Worcester Bosch, Vaillant and ATAG, but his expertise extends to Baxi, Ideal, Potterton, Glow-worm, Vokera and many others. No system is too old, too obscure or too complex.
