What Our Customers Say

”George at Thames boilers has been great. Have used him on a couple of occasions and was always prompt , efficient and very friendly. He was even great with my nosy cat trying to get in his way. Had a hiccup with our new thermostat after he first visited and he immediately came within a few hours to fix it for us. Great service”

-James Quinn

5/5

”Thames Boilers have just carried out a boiler replacement for me. They quoted promptly with a competitive rate and carried out the work neatly, thoroughly and efficiently to a high standard of workmanship. Engineer George Lane was courteous, explained in advance what he was doing and when he would do it, cleared everything away and left things in a tidy state. I have no hesitation in recommending Thames Boilers.”

What Boilers Do We Recommend To Customers In Charlton?

Vaillant Boiler

Vaillant Boilers

Vaillant are one of the most popular boiler manufacturers in the UK. Vaillant are a German company, based in Remscheid, Germany since 1874.

Worcester Bosch Boilers

Worcester Bosch are probably the best known boiler brand in the UK. Although now owned by the massive European brand, Bosch, Worcester is still very much a British company. Their boilers are still made in Warndon in Worcester, in the United Kingdom.

Viessmann Boilers

Viessmann are the best boiler make you’ve never heard of. We’re big fans of Viessmann at Thames Boilers because their build quality is as good as (if not better) than Vaillant or Worcester Bosch, but their prices are a little lower. This makes Viessmann fantastic value – and Which? agree, giving Viessmann several ”Best Buy” awards in recent years.

Baxi Boilers

Baxi is another great British heating make, who can trace their roots back to Richard Baxendale, an iron founder, who started the Baxendale Company (now Baxi) in 1866, based in Preston in Lancashire. These days, Baxi also make boilers under the Main and Potterton brands. We usually recommend Baxi boilers as the least disruptive replacement to some heat-only boilers – and their Main boiler brand for people who are on a budget.

FAQ​

Generally, if you have got one bathroom and also excellent pressure at your kitchen tap or outdoors tap, a combi central heating boiler is usually the very best option.
If you have got over one bathroom in your home, then a conventional central heating boiler (or even a system central heating boiler) with a hot water cylinder would be the most effective option.

No. For existing homes, if you have to replace your boiler from 2035 onwards, you won’t be allowed to replace it with another gas central heating boiler. Going by current government plans, you would have to install a Hydrogen boiler or a heat pump. However, if your gas central heating boiler is working in 2035, you won’t be required to do anything until it needs to be changed, such as if it’s broken down & beyond repair.

It can vary hugely depending on what you need.
However as a rough estimate, to take your old central heating boiler out & put a brand-new one in the same location ranges from roughly ₤1800 to ₤3000.
And to remove an old kind of heating system with a hot water cylinder {and} put in a combi central heating boiler costs between roughly ₤3000 to ₤5000.
If you need various other jobs carried out at the same time, such as a power flush, a new gas pipe, or brand-new radiators, this will certainly contribute to the estimated price.

If you have only got 1 bathroom and also excellent water mains pressure, then yes.
If you have got more than 1 bathroom or poor water mains pressure, then no{, you should look at a conventional boiler or a system boiler}.

Yes. There are a number of sorts of smart thermostats that can connect to the internet so you can control your central heating boiler from your phone. Some brand names customers go with are Nest, Honeywell, Tado, and also Hive.

Why Should You Get A New Boiler? Here Are 6 Great Reasons

1. Cut Your Gas Bill

If you’ve got an old boiler with a pilot light, old radiators, timer and thermostat, 45p of every pound you spend on gas is wasted. However you look at it, that’s an awful waste.

If you replaced your boiler, controls – and maybe even your radiators – at least 92p of every £1 you spent will be put to good use. Only 8p or less would be wasted. That’s a big saving – and if you add it up over a year, you could save over £250. On average, that’s an extra £25 per month in your pocket to spend on the nicer things in life, not gas.

2. Stop Paying For Boiler Breakdowns

Boiler engineering in the last 20 years has massively improved. High quality new boilers don’t break down as often as old boilers because modern boilers contain minimal moving parts and are subject to rigorous quality control.

3. Really powerful showers and faster filling baths

Did you know a new boiler can give you a more powerful shower? Fitting a new combi boiler or unvented hot water cylinder gives that “power shower” experience without the expensive and noisey pump. If you would like to know if your home is suitable for these types of boilers, please get in touch on 0808 196 4649.

4. No more running out of hot water

Did you know that if you get a combi boiler, your hot water lasts forever? You could have a 4 hour shower and never run out of hot water. Amazing isn’t it? This is because combi boilers don’t store their hot water in a tank like on a conventional system, but heat it up as they go, on demand. And if you have a larger home that’s too big for a combi boiler, we can install a hot water system that you’ll swear will never run out. Simply get contact us today to talk about what you need, and we will let you know what you need and a fixed price quote.

5. Create more space at home

Have you ever craved more space in your home? One of the hidden benefits of a new boiler is that it can add extra space for you. With flexible siting options, your new boiler can be safely installed almost anyhere in your home. Plus, if you get a combi boiler, you can remove your hot water cylinder in the airing cupboard and your water tanks in the attic. This instantly creates new space where they used to be, which is brilliant for storage.

6. Don’t worry about switching the boiler on again.

Did you know the very latest heating and boiler controls are as easy to use as a tablet? Gone are the days of squinting at the tiny screen on the heating timer and digging out the user manual just to change the heating times. These days, you can program your heating either through the simple (and free) phone or tablet apps that come with your new control, or scroll through the big colour screen to change your settings with ease. And best of all, once you’ve set everything up, your new boiler and heating controls will keep your home at a perfect temperature without using any more energy than absolutely necessary.
