What We Do
Repairs
We fix electric boiler faults same-day wherever possible. Our engineers carry common spare parts on the van and diagnose the problem before quoting a fixed price.
Common issues: no hot water, tripped fuses, faulty elements, thermostat problems, leaking valves, PCB failure, pump noise.
Servicing
Annual electric boiler servicing from £138.50 + VAT. A full service checks all heating elements, thermostats, wiring, expansion vessel, and safety valves.
Regular servicing keeps your system running efficiently, extends its lifespan, and helps prevent costly breakdowns.
Installation
New electric boiler installations for homes without gas. We install unvented systems, thermal stores, direct and indirect cylinders.
No-obligation quote for every installation. Call us to discuss the best system for your property.
Why Choose an Electric Boiler?
Electric boilers are a practical choice for properties without a gas supply. They are increasingly popular as the UK moves towards the gas boiler phase-out. Here's when electric makes sense:
- No gas supply needed — ideal for off-grid properties and new builds
- No flue required — can be installed in any room
- No annual gas safety certificate needed
- Typically quieter than gas boilers
- Compact units — less space required for installation
- Growing market due to gas boiler phase-out
A note on running costs: electricity costs more per kWh than gas, so running costs are typically higher. But if you don't have a gas supply, electric is the practical and reliable choice. We'll advise you on the most efficient system for your property during a no-obligation consultation.

What Our Customers Say
“Tony has worked for us twice, the last a difficult job replacing an aged boiler that was in a confined space. He was very well organised and professional and he and his colleague Taylor always courteous. When replacing the controller, there was a particular problem created by our old programmer's wiring and he worked on it relentlessly until the system was working perfectly. Definitely recommend.”
“Tony and Taylor were very efficient and friendly. We went out and left them to get on with the work of installing our new boiler. When we came back the job was done: very much to my satisfaction. I have no hesitation in recommending them.”
“Superb service provided by the boys from AHP – an old boiler inspected and the new one installed in record time; throughout this the guys were professional and skillful whilst remaining friendly and personable at all times, answering every question and returning phone queries within minutes. I would not hesitate to call again should the need arise and can only recommend their effectiveness and friendly demeanour.”
