Customer Feedback
”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”

People In Chatham Choose These Boiler Brands
Vaillant
Vaillant are one of the best known boiler manufacturers in the UK. Vaillant were apparently the first company to make a “combi”also known as a “combination” boiler back in the early 1960’s. So they’re a well established company.
Worcester Bosch
Worcester Bosch are among the best known boiler makes in the country. Like their closest competitors Vaillant and Viessmann boilers, Worcester Bosch have won several Which? Best Buy awards.
Viessmann
Viessmann is the best boiler make you’ve never heard of. But don’t let that put you off. Viessmann are huge in Europe and, like Vaillant, they’re German and have been around for over 100 years.
Baxi
Baxi is another great British boiler make, whose roots go back to Richard Baxendale, an iron founder, who started the Baxendale Company (now Baxi) in 1866, based in Preston in Lancashire. Today, Baxi also make well known Main and Potterton boiler brands, as part of the Baxi group. We usually recommend Baxi boilers as the least disruptive replacement to some heat-only boilers – and their Main brand for people who want to keep costs down.
Most Asked Questions From Our Chatham Customers​
Generally, if you‘ve got one bathroom and also great water pressure at your kitchen tap or outdoors tap, a combination central heating boiler is normally the best option.
If you‘ve got more than one bathroom, a conventional central heating boiler (or perhaps a system central heating boiler) with a hot water tank would be the most effective option.
No. For existing houses, if you have to replace your gas boiler from 2035 onwards, you will not be able to replace it with another gas central heating boiler. According to current government plans, you would have to install a Hydrogen boiler or a heat pump. Nonetheless, if your gas central heating boiler is operating in 2035, you will not be required to do anything until it needs to be replaced, such as if it’s broken down & irreparable.
It can vary hugely depending upon what you need.
However as a rough guide, to take your old central heating boiler out & put a new one in the exact same place varies from about ₤1800 to ₤3000.
And to take out an old type of gas boiler with a hot water cylinder {and} put in a combi central heating boiler costs between about ₤3000 and ₤5000.
