Local knowledge

What we see in Cults homes

  • 01

    System boilers and unvented cylinders

    With two or three bathrooms in use at once, a combi often cannot keep up. We fit system boilers with unvented cylinders so every shower gets mains pressure.

  • 02

    Large rooms, thick walls

    High ceilings and bay windows need properly sized radiators. Our heat-loss surveys stop the classic problem of a beautiful sitting room that never quite gets warm.

  • 03

    Care with period features

    We lift floorboards rather than chasing walls, protect cornicing and fit period-style column radiators where you want to keep the character.

Will a combi boiler work in a large house in Cults?

For homes with one bathroom, often yes. With two or more bathrooms in regular use, a system boiler with an unvented cylinder usually gives a far better shower experience. We will tell you honestly on the survey.

How much does a new boiler cost in Aberdeen?

Most like-for-like combi boiler swaps in Aberdeen come in between £2,195 and £2,850 fitted, including the flue, magnetic filter, smart thermostat and a chemical flush. Converting from a hot water cylinder to a combi is usually £3,100 to £4,200, and a system boiler with a new unvented cylinder is £3,600 to £4,900. We give a fixed written price after a free survey, so the number you see is the number you pay.

Do you cover Aberdeenshire as well as Aberdeen city?

Yes. Our engineers are based at Tarn Quay by the harbour and cover the whole of Aberdeen city plus Aberdeenshire out to Stonehaven in the south, Ellon in the north and Westhill and Echt to the west. Further afield, such as Banchory, Inverurie or Peterhead, we take planned work and will tell you honestly if an emergency is better served by someone closer.
