Remove sludge and restore efficiency to your central heating system across all 32 London boroughs.
We fix a steady set of problems across London properties. We explain the cause first, because you should know why it happened before we agree any work.
Every visit follows the same steps. As a result, you get the same standard of work whether the job is a quick clearance or a detailed survey.
A radiator power flush is a deep clean of your central heating. A specialist machine pushes water through the system at speed. It removes black iron oxide sludge, limescale and corrosion debris from the radiators, the pipes and the boiler heat exchanger.
London's hard water speeds up limescale build-up. Older homes also tend to collect sludge faster, because their heating systems have had more years to build it.
Hard water leaves limescale inside radiators and heat exchangers. Many London homes also have older heating systems. Because these systems have run for many years, they can hold a lot of sludge.
Watch for cold spots on radiators and a noisy boiler. A slow or uneven system and dirty water from a bled radiator point the same way. When you see these signs, a power flush may help.
The time depends on the number of radiators and how bad the sludge is. Larger homes take longer than smaller ones. We explain the likely time when we confirm your quote.

We check the flow across all radiators and the condition of the boiler. We also take a water sample, because it shows how much sludge the system holds.
We connect the power flush machine and add cleaning chemicals. We then flush the system until the waste water runs clear, which a visual flow indicator confirms.
We add a corrosion inhibitor to protect the clean system. You also get a written report, while our advice helps you keep the system healthy.
You may need one if radiators have cold spots or take a long time to heat. Frequent bleeding and dark water from a bled radiator are other signs. Noisy pipes, repeated boiler faults and rising energy bills can also point to sludge in the system.
The time depends on the number of radiators, the pipe layout, the access and the amount of sludge. A larger home takes longer than a small flat. We explain the likely time when we confirm your quote.
Yes, when the engineer checks the system first and uses suitable pressure and chemicals. Older systems need careful handling, especially where radiators, valves or pipes are corroded. If a system is too fragile for machine flushing, we explain the safer options before work starts.
The price depends on the number of radiators and the amount of sludge in the system. Request a quote online, and we will confirm the price with you before any work starts.
It often fixes cold spots that sludge and poor circulation cause. Sometimes the cause is a stuck valve, trapped air, poor balancing or a failing pump. We spot that during the inspection, and we explain the right repair.
