Heating engineers in Gillingham and North Dorset

Gas, oil and LPG, all from the same two people. Free quotes, prices you can read before you ring, and we tell you if a repair makes more sense than a replacement.

Whatever your house runs on, we work on it

Most heating firms round here do gas. We are Gas Safe registered for gas and LPG, and OFTEC registered for oil, so we can take on a village cottage on an oil tank and a new build on a combi in the same week.

That matters more here than it would in a city. Plenty of the villages around Gillingham, Shaftesbury and Wincanton never got mains gas, and finding somebody who covers both is the reason a lot of people ring us.

Matt has been on the tools twenty five years, seventeen of them at British Gas. Owen has been with us five. Whoever quotes your job is the one who turns up to do it.

Working out what you actually need

Depends on the age and what has failed. Under about eight years old and it is usually worth repairing. Older than that, and if the part is expensive, you are often putting good money into a boiler that will fail again. We will tell you which one yours is, and we will say repair when it is repair. Quoting you for a new boiler is the easy answer, not the honest one.

A service is for you, and it keeps the manufacturer warranty valid. A certificate is a legal requirement if you let the property out. They are different jobs, though we do both in one visit and charge less than the two separately.

Oil, LPG or a heat pump. We fit and service all three. Oil is the most common answer round here and usually the cheapest to run of the three if you already have a tank.

Where we work

Across North Dorset and over the border

We are based in Gillingham and most of our work is within eight miles, and we also cover Mere, Sturminster Newton, Frome, Blandford Forum, Warminster and the villages between. We will travel further for a full installation. Just ask.
