Instead of dedicated sales people in suits we offer engineers who are familiar with customer sites and individual boilers. They can offer advice in a language customers understand and on occasions carry out work on the spot. We never charge to go out to site and give advice or hide it in the bill. Helping customers to find a better alternative or save money long term is all part of the service.
We are here to provide our customers with whatever they need to keep their boiler systems working at optimum efficiency; from valve and boiler repairs to annual inspections, from pipework systems to special fabrications such as chimneys, feed tanks, skid units, container-house boiler units and storage tanks.
