Across the county

Boilers for city streets and pit villages alike

Former mining villages

Many homes in places like Brandon and Ushaw Moor are solid-wall terraces with long runs of older pipework.

A system flush and a magnetic filter, both in our price, help a new boiler cope with old pipes.

Homes off the gas grid

Some rural County Durham homes have no mains gas. If yours runs on oil or LPG, a gas boiler is not an option, but an air source heat pump may be, with grant help.

Starting from scratch

Fitting central heating for the first time

Our Brandon job in February 2026 followed these steps.

  1. Survey

    We measure each room and plan where radiators and pipes will run.

  2. Fixed quote

    You get one price for the boiler, radiators and pipework.

  3. Pipework first

    Pipes go in under floors and along walls, kept as neat as the house allows.

  4. Boiler and radiators

    The boiler is fitted, the radiators hung and the system filled and tested.

One price

No extras added on the day

The price you see online is the price you pay for a standard swap. The flush, filter, thermostat and carbon monoxide alarm are all included.

Common questions

Boilers in Durham: quick answers

Do you cover Durham city and the rest of County Durham?

Yes. We fit boilers in Durham and across the county, including Brandon, Ushaw Moor, Consett, Stanley and Chester-le-Street.

Will I be without heating for long?

Not for long. A like-for-like swap takes 1 day, so you usually have heating and hot water back the same evening.

My village has no mains gas. What are my options?

A gas boiler needs a mains gas supply. Off-gas homes often look at an air source heat pump instead, which can come with grant funding. Ask us and we will tell you what fits your home.
