How long does a new boiler installation take?
A like-for-like swap in the same position is typically a day. Converting between boiler types — a regular system to a combi, say — takes longer because the tank and cylinder come out and pipework changes.
Do you install new boilers in Pollok & Darnley?
Yes. We supply and fit A-rated combi and system boilers throughout Pollok & Darnley, including removing and disposing of the old unit, commissioning, balancing the system and registering the manufacturer warranty. Sizing advice is honest — we fit what your home needs, not the biggest unit we could sell.
What size boiler do I need?
It depends on your property size, number of radiators and how many bathrooms draw hot water at once — not on fitting the biggest available. An oversized boiler cycles inefficiently and costs more to run. We size it properly and explain the reasoning.
My radiators are cold at the top — what's wrong?
That's usually trapped air, and bleeding the radiator often fixes it. If it keeps coming back, or radiators are cold at the bottom instead, that points to sludge or a balancing problem rather than air. Plenty of the housing association stock, terraces and newer estates in Pollok & Darnley have systems old enough for build-up to be the culprit.
Combi, system or regular — which is right for my home?
Combi suits most flats and smaller homes with decent mains pressure. System boilers with a cylinder handle larger homes and multiple bathrooms better. Regular boilers are usually kept when replacing like-for-like where a loft tank already exists.
Can you help with plumbing as well as boilers in Pollok & Darnley?
Yes — we're not boiler-only. We handle kitchen and bathroom plumbing, taps, showers, toilets, hot and cold pipework, leaks and drainage across Pollok & Darnley. It often means one visit sorts several jobs instead of booking separate trades.
Do you remove and dispose of the old boiler?
Yes, that's included. We take the old unit away and dispose of it properly — you're not left with it in the garage.

Is a system flush included?
We assess whether the system needs one and tell you honestly. Fitting a new boiler onto an old, dirty system is a false economy — debris circulates into the new unit. Be cautious of any quote that's cheaper because it quietly omits this.
