London and everywhere within twenty miles of it

London is the base and the whole of the coverage radiates from it: the inner boroughs, the suburbs, and the market towns out to the M25. Sixty-eight towns and districts beyond the centre are named below, and every one is served in the same way.

Excellent

Rated by London homeowners and landlords

  • Boiler repair, flat

    Boiler locked out on a Sunday evening and the flat was freezing by Monday. Explained the fault code over the phone, turned up when they said, had the part on the van. Heating back on the same visit.

  • New combi boiler

    Got a written quote with the boiler model, the flush and the filter all listed, nothing added later. Two days of work, tidy, and they talked me through the controls before leaving.

  • Landlord gas certificate

    Needed a CP12 quickly for a tenancy renewal. Booked for the next morning, the tenant said the engineer was polite and quick, and the certificate was in my inbox that afternoon.

  • Blocked kitchen drain

    Kitchen sink had been slow for weeks and then stopped altogether. Cleared it, showed me the fat build-up on the camera, and gave honest advice on stopping it happening again.

  • Radiators cold at the bottom

    Three radiators were cold at the bottom however much I bled them. Power flush took most of a day and the difference is obvious, the whole house heats up far faster now.

  • Leak under the bathroom floor

    Water was coming through the kitchen ceiling and I feared the whole floor coming up. They traced it to one joint on the bath waste and only lifted two boards. Very relieved.

  • Bathroom refit

    Full bathroom, old one stripped out and a walk-in shower put in. Plumbing, tiling and electrics all handled by the same people, so nothing fell between the gaps. Really pleased.

  • Annual boiler service

    Straightforward service, no upselling. Checked everything, cleaned the condensate trap, adjusted the pressure and explained what the readings meant. Booked again for next year.

London first, then the circle around it

London's housing is older, denser and more varied than anywhere else the trade works. A single street can hold a Georgian house split into four flats, a 1930s mansion block with a communal boiler, a post-war council block with shared risers and a new-build with a plant room in the basement. The plumbing and heating in each is different, and so is the way a job is done: where the stopcock is, who has to approve the flue, which wall the pipes can run in, whether the drain is shared with the neighbour. That is the work Dependable Heating is built around, and the home page sets out how it is done.

Around the city the coverage is a circle roughly twenty miles across, with the base town at its centre. Inside it are the inner boroughs with their terraces and mansion blocks, the interwar suburbs, the post-war estates and the market towns beyond the North Circular and the South Circular. Every one of the heating and plumbing services is available across the whole circle, from a leaking tap to a full central heating system, and the busiest calls are the same everywhere: boiler breakdowns in winter, landlord gas certificates all year round, and blocked drains in the older streets where the pipework under the pavement is Victorian.

Engineers are routed by area, so a morning in the north does not end with a van stuck on the South Circular, and parking, permits and controlled zones are dealt with as a matter of course. Hard water is the constant across the whole circle: scale is behind a large share of the hot water and pressure complaints, and the parts and the descaling kit to deal with it are on the van.

FAQ

Questions about where we work

How far out of London do you go?

Roughly twenty miles from the centre in every direction, which takes in every town listed on this page, from Watford and St Albans in the north to Redhill and Leatherhead in the south, Grays in the east and Staines in the west.

My town is in the list. Is it covered in the same way as London?

Yes. Every town in the list is served by the same engineers, at the same prices, with the same written quote first. The list is the coverage; there is nothing extra to check.

Do you charge more for the outer towns?

Jobs are priced by the work, and visits are grouped by area so travel is planned rather than charged. The price you agree is the price, wherever the property is.

Do you cover flats in central London?

Yes, and mansion blocks, conversions and estates are a large part of the work. Access through porters and managing agents is arranged before the visit.

Can I book several properties in different areas at once?

Yes. Landlords and agents with properties across the list can have gas checks, services and repairs grouped by area and by month.
