What Do 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”

Customers In Shooters Hill Like These Boilers

Vaillant Boiler

Vaillant

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

Worcester Bosch

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. Worcester Bosch’s boilers are still made in Warndon in Worcester, in the UK.

Viessmann

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

Baxi

Baxi is another great British heating manufacturer, whose roots go back to Richard Baxendale, an iron founder, who began the Baxendale Company in 1866, based in Preston in Lancashire. Today, Baxi also makes boilers under the Main and Potterton brands. We usually recommend Baxi boilers as the least disruptive replacement for some heat-only boilers – and their Main brand for people who want to keep costs down.

FAQ​

As a rule, if you‘ve got one bathroom and good water pressure at your kitchen tap or outdoors tap, a combination boiler is normally the best option for most people.
If you‘ve got over one bathroom in your home, then a conventional boiler (or perhaps a system boiler) with a hot water cylinder could be the most effective option for you.

No. For existing homes, if you have to change your boiler from 2035 onwards, you will not be allowed to replace it with another gas boiler. According to current government plans, you would have to install a Hydrogen boiler or a heat pump. Nonetheless, if your gas boiler is working in 2035, you will not need to do anything till it needs to be changed, such as if it’s broken down and irreparable.

It can differ hugely depending upon what you need.
But as a rough estimate, to take your old boiler out and put a new one in the same place varies from about ₤1800 to ₤3000.
And to strip out an old kind of system with a hot water tank {and} fit a combi boiler costs between about ₤3000 to ₤5000.
If you need other work carried out at the same time, such as a power flush, a new gas pipe, or brand-new radiators, this will add to the estimated costs.

If you‘ve only got 1 bathroom and good water mains pressure, then yes.
If you‘ve got more than 1 bathroom or bad water mains pressure, then no{, you should look at a conventional boiler or a system boiler}.

Yes. There are a number of kinds of clever thermostats that can link to the net so you can regulate your boiler from your phone. Some brand names customers choose are Nest, Honeywell, Tado, and Hive.

Is It Time To Install A New Boiler? Here Are 6 Things You'll Love About It

1. Slash Your Gas Bills

If you’ve got an old boiler with a pilot light, old radiators, timer and thermostat, 45pence of every £1 you spend on gas is completely wasted. Whichever way you look at it, that’s a terrible waste.

If you replaced your boiler, controls – and maybe even your radiators – at least 92pence in every £1 you spend will be put to good use. Only 8pence 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 design 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. More powerful showers and fast filling baths

Did you know a new boiler can give you a really powerful shower? Fitting a new combi boiler or unvented hot water cylinder gives the “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. Stop running out of hot water

Have you ever looked forward to a nice bath or shower and found you’ve ran out of hot water? With an upgraded heating system, you’ll never need to worry about running out of hot water. When a system is properly designed and set up, you’ll always have lovely hot water whenever you need it.

5. Free up more space

Have you ever craved extra space in your home? One of the hidden benefits of getting a new boiler is that it can create extra space in your home. With flexible siting options, your boiler can be installed safely almost anyhere in your home. Plus, if you get a combi boiler, you can take out your hot water cylinder in the airing cupboard and your water tanks in the loft. This immediately creates new space where your tanks and cylinder used to be, which is great for storage.

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

With advanced heating controls like the Nest thermostat or the incredible Honeywell Evohome control system, you’ll always be warm enough, but never waste money on gas either. They’re easy to use, but are full of advanced features that help keep you comfortable and save you money. Geo-fencing, for example, knows when everyone has left the house, so it turns the heating down to save money. Then, when anyone is getting close to home again, it turns the heating up again, ready for when you’re home. Get in touch today to learn more about the latest central heating controls and boilers.
