It’s easy to forget about your central heating in the summer, but when the cold weather returns, you will want your heating system to be in top condition. To ensure this, it is important to arrange maintenance services, such as boiler servicing and boiler repairs, ahead of winter. At Lindfield Plumbing & Heating, our plumbers and gas engineers help customers in Haywards Heath and the surrounding areas we cover with all plumbing and central heating requirements, including gas safety certificates, plumbing repairs, hot water cylinders, boiler installations and bathroom fitting.
In this guide, our experts explain how to prepare your central heating for winter and keep heating and plumbing systems working throughout the season.
Most homes in the UK rely on a gas boiler for heating and hot water. These systems need professional maintenance to keep them running safely and effectively. It is common for homeowners to turn their heating on in autumn or winter after months of not using it, to find their boiler is not working as it should.
To avoid this, we recommend arranging boiler servicing during the summer. Our team thoroughly checks boilers in the Haywards Heath area, performing any necessary boiler repairs and issuing gas safety certificates. This gives you peace of mind knowing your boiler is working as it should, ready for the colder months. We can even complete boiler installations when your existing model needs replacing or install new hot water cylinders as required.
Furthermore, if you’ve undertaken any home improvements, such as bathroom fitting or a loft conversion, we can ensure that your boiler is adequately serving the new rooms and installations.
During the winter, plumbers are just as busy as gas engineers. This is because the cold weather can freeze pipes, which in turn can result in damaged or burst pipes.
Just like preventive boiler servicing is better than waiting until boiler repairs are needed, plumbing maintenance can help avoid plumbing issues at the worst time.
Lindfield Plumbing & Heating can carry out various plumbing repairs for customers in Haywards Heath and the nearby areas, ensuring pipework is in the best possible condition. We also offer expert advice to help you avoid winter plumbing issues:
If your boiler or central heating system is old, an upgrade can put you in the best position for winter. This is because new systems are much more reliable, with minimal risk of faults or breakdowns.
Our plumbers and gas engineers can perform boiler installations as well as installing new hot water cylinders and central heating for homeowners in the Haywards Heath area, providing relevant gas safety certificates.
In addition, we offer a bathroom fitting service, including plumbing updates, ensuring effective bathroom plumbing.
