Homes in Wivenhoe: what we usually find
Wivenhoe has two quite different kinds of housing. The old quayside and conservation area has narrow streets of period cottages where boilers are often squeezed into small spaces and flue routes need careful thought. Further out and along the river there are newer developments with modern sealed systems. With the University of Essex campus on the edge of town, there are also plenty of rented homes, so we do a lot of landlord gas safety checks and electrical reports here.

Wivenhoe plumbing and heating FAQs
Can you fit a new boiler in a small period cottage?
Usually, yes. Compact combi boilers fit in a kitchen cupboard in most cottages. We survey first to check the gas supply, flue position and any conservation area considerations before giving you a fixed quote.
How often does a rented property need a gas safety check?
Every 12 months. The landlord must keep the record and give a copy to tenants. We can remind you when the next check is due.
Do you deal with leaks under floors?
Yes. We use leak detection methods to find the source before lifting floors, which keeps damage and making-good to a minimum.
