When a boiler is on its last legs
A dying boiler forces a decision most people would rather not make in a hurry. Replacing it with another gas boiler is the default, but it is not the only route — and if you are already thinking about solar, or the flue is awkward, or you simply want combustion out of the house, electric is worth pricing properly rather than dismissing.
The switch, side by side
After — what replaces it
No boiler maintenance
No annual service, no gas safety certificate, no combustion — there is no boiler left to maintain.
No pipework to leak
Electric radiators hold no water, so the leak and flood risk of a wet system leaves with the boiler.
Room-by-room control
Every room gets its own thermostat and schedule, instead of one dial in the hallway running the whole house.
A fast changeover
Most jobs take one to two days, sequenced so you are not left without heating or hot water.
Ready for solar
An all-electric system pairs directly with solar PV and battery storage — which is where the running costs come down.
15-year warranty
The radiators carry a 15-year warranty, with all the relevant paperwork and certification provided on completion.
The whole job, handled
-
Free home survey
We visit, measure each room and look at how you actually live in the house. Heat output is sized per room — a guess made over the phone is how people end up cold in the room they use most.
-
A written recommendation
You get a clear proposal setting out what we would install, why that specification, and what it costs. No pressure and no obligation to go ahead.
-
Removal and disposal
We cap off the gas supply, remove the boiler and the old radiators, and dispose of everything properly. Making good afterwards is part of the job.
-
Installation and handover
We install, test and then show you how to run it. Getting the controls right is most of the saving, so we do not leave until you know how to use them.
What the switch involves
We replace the boiler and its wet radiator circuit with electric heating sized per room, and the hot water cylinder with a system suited to the property. There is no flue to route, no gas connection to maintain and no annual gas safety inspection. The electrical supply and consumer unit need checking as part of the survey — sometimes an upgrade is required, and we will tell you that up front rather than on the day.
Being straight about running costs
Electricity costs more per unit than gas. A well-designed electric system earns its keep through control — heating only the rooms in use, only when they are in use — and through pairing with solar PV and battery storage where that suits the property. We would rather show you honest numbers at survey than sell you a saving that does not appear on your bill.
Guided from survey to switch-on
Coming off gas is a bigger decision than swapping one boiler for another, and it can feel like a daunting project. It should not be. From the first free survey through to the on-site work you deal with one dedicated team, and once the new system is running we keep in touch to make sure you are happy with how it is set up and performing.
