Plumbers: Why summer is the perfect time to start planning for upgrading heating systems



Having an effective and efficient heating system in place for winter is essential for homeowners – but, as we know, many leave it until things go wrong and it’s urgent, resulting in little time for properly planning for and choosing the right solution. Plumbers know that now is the perfect time to either replace or upgrade customers’ systems so they don’t have to get through another winter with their boiler on its last legs or patchy radiators working at 60%. But while homeowners may not be planning ahead, contractors can do their research on the best quality, most fit for purpose supplies so that when the time comes, you can advise on and get hold of what you need quickly and easily.


The complete package
When pricing up a new heating system, or even just a replacement radiator, it’s not just the cost of the ‘big ticket item’ that needs to be taken into account; there’s also all the fixtures and fittings that go with it as a whole package that customers might not be aware of. We aim to be competitive across the board with every item that plumbers will need from start to finish, from the boiler itself all the way to the controls and water treatments to keep it running efficiently. This means that you can budget and quote accurately and build a reputation for quality service.

Often national retailers will focus on the high-value item and then overcharge on the low-value ‘add ons’, but we make sure all the items in our Keighley store and on our online shop are priced transparently so there are no hidden costs, with preferential rates for loyal trade customers.

You get what you pay for
Budget boilers and cheaper radiators may seem desirable to price-sensitive customers in an emergency situation but, as professionals, we know that they will ultimately end up costing more, whether it’s faulty parts or sludge build up compromising the system. We hand-pick only the best quality brands and products so that you don’t have to wade through thousands of options and can be sure that what you choose will be fit for purpose. This also means that  you can reassure your customers that their investment will be worth it in the long run!

Whether you have got savvy customers who are planning ahead for winter now or you want to persuade them to do so, we can offer advice on the latest plumbing and heating technology and how to make the most of it to get the best long term value for you and the homeowner.
