Heating engineer in Notting Hill and Holland Park, W11

Areas we cover in W11

Holland Park, Notting Hill Gate, Ladbroke Grove, Portobello, Kensington Park Road, Elgin Crescent, Pembridge and the garden squares between them.

What these properties need

• Large stucco-fronted houses over four or five floors, usually with system boilers and large cylinders rather than combis — a combi can’t serve several bathrooms at once in a house this size.
• Unvented cylinders are the norm here. These pressurised systems legally require a separate G3 qualification as well as Gas Safe registration, and we hold it — installation, commissioning and annual servicing.
• Listed and conservation-area restrictions — much of W11 is protected, which limits flue positions, external pipework and visible plant. This has to be resolved before a boiler is ordered, not after.
• Zoned heating systems with multiple thermostats, underfloor heating on lower floors and radiators above. More controls means more that can go wrong, and more that can be fixed without replacing anything.
• Converted flats in the crescents, where the freeholder usually has firm rules about what may be fitted where.

Honest about what we take on

Some W11 houses have plant rooms and commercial-scale systems beyond what a domestic engineer should touch. If yours is one of them we’ll say so on the phone rather than turning up and charging you to find out. We’d rather lose the job than do it badly.
