Local heating engineers who know Walker

We're out across the east end most weeks, so the riverside streets around here are familiar ground to us. This is a part of Newcastle with its own character — long rows of solid terraced houses, pockets of former council housing that have been improved steadily over the years, and the newer riverside developments that have grown up along the banks of the Tyne. Around Walker Road and towards Walkergate you'll find down-to-earth, value-conscious homeowners living alongside a good number of well-kept rented homes.

That mix is exactly what we're set up for. Plenty of local families want their heating sorted properly without paying over the odds, and that's the approach we take: honest advice, sensible options and a tidy job done right the first time. You get a qualified engineer who turns up when promised, talks you through the work in plain terms and leaves your home as clean as it was found.

Boiler and heating services we provide

You can turn to the same trusted team for everything to do with your heating and hot water, which saves chasing several different trades whenever something needs attention.

New boiler installation

We supply and fit A-rated combi, system and conventional boilers, sized to suit your home and backed by warranties of up to ten years. If an old, costly boiler is draining your budget, our boiler installation page sets out the choices and the running-cost savings a modern unit brings.

Boiler repair and breakdowns

No heating or hot water, a pressure gauge that keeps dropping, odd banging noises or a fault code on the display — we track down the cause and fix most faults in a single visit. Our boiler repair service covers the common breakdowns and the awkward intermittent ones too.

Annual boiler servicing

A yearly service keeps your boiler running safely and efficiently, protects the manufacturer's warranty and catches small wear-and-tear problems long before they leave you without heat on a cold night.

Central heating, power flushing and gas safety

We also install and upgrade central heating systems, swap tired radiators and fit modern controls, clear years of sludge with a power flush to bring cold radiators back to life, and carry out gas safety checks and landlord certificates.

Common heating problems in Walker homes

A lot of the housing here has been standing for decades, and older systems tend to show their age in predictable ways. The most frequent call we get is for radiators that are hot at the top but stone cold at the bottom — a classic sign of sludge and corrosion building up inside long-serving pipework. Left alone it makes the whole system work harder, pushes up bills and can shorten the life of the boiler itself.

We also see plenty of ageing boilers that have reached the point where repair after repair stops making sense, and a well-chosen replacement pays for itself in lower running costs and reliable heat. In the terraced and ex-council properties, undersized or badly balanced radiators often leave one room roasting while another never warms up. Wherever possible we find the root cause and put it right, rather than papering over the symptom, so the comfort lasts through the winter.

How soon can we get to you?

Working close by means we can usually reach you quickly, and that matters most when the heating packs in on a frosty morning. For breakdowns and emergencies we aim to respond the same day whenever we possibly can. For planned jobs such as a new boiler or a routine service, we'll agree a time that suits your day and keep you posted, so you're never left guessing when the van will arrive.

Gas safety for landlords and rental homes

With so many rented houses in the area, we do a steady stream of work for local landlords and letting agents. We carry out annual gas safety checks, issue your CP12 certificate and sort any repairs needed to keep appliances safe and legal. Everything is booked around your tenants with the least possible disruption, and the paperwork is completed properly so you stay firmly on the right side of the regulations.
