Our services in Shipley

Plumbing, heating and electrical work for Shipley homes and businesses

Boiler installation in Shipley

Combi, system and regular boilers sized to the actual heat demand of your home. A two-bed terrace near Saltaire Road needs a very different boiler to a four-bed detached in Baildon, and we’ll explain why before you commit

Boiler servicing & repairs

Annual services that keep your manufacturer warranty valid, plus fault finding on Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi and most other makes. Losing pressure? Frozen condensate pipe? We see both in Shipley every winter.

Plumbing services

Leaks, low water pressure, blocked sinks, new taps, radiators and full bathroom installs. Cold cellar pipework in older stone terraces is a regular job for us.

Central heating

Design, installation and repair of central heating systems, keeping properties warm year-round.

Electrical services

Consumer unit upgrades, rewires, extra sockets and lighting, fault finding, and EICR testing for homeowners and landlords.

Commercial gas services

Gas safety checks, servicing and installation for shops, cafés, offices and workshops around Shipley town centre and along the Aire Valley.

Renewable heating solutions

Air source heat pumps and other renewable upgrades, a popular choice among Shipley homeowners looking to upgrade older heating systems — including heritage properties in Saltaire.

Shipley homes have their quirks. We know them

Much of Shipley’s housing is Victorian and Edwardian stone. Solid walls, high ceilings, and on plenty of streets a cellar where the pipes run cold from November to March. We lag that pipework, reroute it, or move the boiler out of the cellar when it’s the better option.

Saltaire

The village has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001, and most of it sits in a conservation area with many listed buildings. Flue positions, external pipework and heat pump units can need consent from Bradford Council. We check before we quote, so you don’t get a planning letter after the job.

Mill conversions

Apartments in converted mills along the canal often have awkward flue routes or electric-only heating. We’ll tell you honestly what your building allows.

Baildon and Charlestown

Higher ground, colder snaps. A frozen condensate pipe is the classic January call-out up here, and it’s usually preventable with the right pipe size and insulation.

Windhill, Wrose and Nab Wood

Terraces, inter-war semis and post-war estates, many still running older boilers that are well worth an efficiency check.
