Bexleyheath grew up around the Broadway in the 1930s, so much of the housing is inter-war semi-detached with the bay fronts, steep roofs and back boilers that era favoured — alongside the Victorian cottages near the old village and the post-war estates toward Barnehurst. Those 1930s boilers and gravity hot-water systems are now reaching the end of their lives, which is most of what we're called to: back-boiler removals, combi conversions, and bringing tired gravity systems up to fully-pumped, pressurised heating.

Bexleyheath plumbing & heating FAQs
Our 1930s Bexleyheath semi has a back boiler we never use — can you remove it?
Yes — it's one of our most common jobs here. We cap the gas supply, remove the back-boiler unit, then either line the chimney for a new flue or fit a wall-mounted combi elsewhere and make good the fireplace.
We've got a combi but shower pressure is weak — can you help in Bexleyheath?
Weak shower pressure on a combi usually means low mains flow; we check your incoming DA6/DA7 mains, fit a flow-restrictor or upgrade the rising main so the combi can deliver properly.
