Boiler Installation in Essex

Gas Safe Vaillant installations from £2,000 across Essex and London

Expert Boiler Installation

A new boiler from Green Plumbing and Heating costs between £2,000 and £4,500 supplied and fitted, installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer across Essex, London and Kent. We survey the property, remove the old boiler, run the new pipework, commission the system and register the manufacturer warranty. Most straightforward swaps take one to two days, and full system conversions take three to five.

A new boiler is one of the biggest jobs a house will have done in a decade, so it is worth getting right first time. James has been installing and replacing boilers across Essex and London for 18 years, and every install is carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer from first survey to final handover.

Most of our boiler work is in Rayleigh, Basildon and Southend-on-Sea, and we start with a proper look at what you already have. Pipework, radiator sizes, hot water demand and where the flue can safely run all change what boiler suits the property, so we survey before we quote rather than guessing from a phone call. You get a written price with the boiler, the controls and the work all listed.

Our standard recommendation is the Vaillant range, paired with Hive controls where a customer wants to run the heating from their phone. They are reliable, parts are easy to get hold of and the warranties are strong. If you would rather we fitted something else, we will price it and tell you honestly how it compares.

On the day we protect the working area, remove the old boiler, make good the pipework, install and commission the new unit, and flush the system so the new boiler is not inheriting the old one's sludge. Before we leave we walk you through the controls, hand over the paperwork and register the manufacturer warranty for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Boiler Installation Questions

What boiler and controls are the best?

We fit the Vaillant range as standard for new boilers, and the Hive system for controls. Vaillant units are reliable, parts are widely available and the warranties are strong. Hive lets you run the heating and hot water from your phone. If you would prefer a different make, tell us and we will price it up and give you an honest comparison.

How much does a new boiler cost?

Most installations land between £2,000 and £4,500 supplied and fitted. A straight combi swap in the same position sits at the lower end. Moving the boiler, converting from a conventional system to a combi, or adding a cylinder pushes it up. You get a written, itemised price before anything is booked in.

How long does a boiler installation take?

A straightforward swap in the same position is usually one to two days. A full system conversion, or a relocation involving new pipework, is three to five days. We will tell you which yours is at the survey, so you can plan around being without heating and hot water.

Do you remove and dispose of the old boiler?

Yes. Removing the old boiler, taking it away and making good the pipework is all part of the price. We protect the working area before we start and leave the space clean when we finish.

Is the warranty registered for me?

Yes. We register the manufacturer warranty on your behalf and hand over the paperwork and the commissioning record. Keeping the boiler serviced every 12 months is what keeps that warranty valid, so we set a reminder for you at the same time.
