Boiler Installations
We specialise in new boiler installations for gas, oil, and LPG systems. Our Worcester Bosch Accredited engineers ensure optimal performance with extended guarantees up to 12 years. All installations meet current building regulations and Gas Safe standards. Customers benefit from improved energy efficiency and long-term reliability.
Central Heating Repairs
Our Gas Safe engineers diagnose and repair central heating system faults. Services include radiator replacements, pump repairs, and smart control installations. We address common issues like cold radiators and boiler shutdowns. Emergency repairs prioritise restoring heating functionality while maintaining safety compliance.
Powerflushing
Powerflushing removes sludge and debris from central heating systems. Using specialist chemicals and equipment, we restore system efficiency and prevent breakdowns. The process typically takes 6-10 hours depending on system complexity. Recommended for systems showing reduced performance or cold radiator areas.
Unvented Hot Water Cylinders
We install and service unvented hot water cylinders compliant with G3 regulations. These systems provide mains-pressure hot water for showers and baths. Our qualified engineers ensure proper installation and annual servicing. Benefits include faster bath filling and reduced freezing risks compared to traditional systems.
Gas Safety Inspections
Landlord gas safety inspections (CP12) conducted by certified engineers. We inspect boilers, gas fires, and pipework for compliance. The process identifies potential hazards and ensures legal requirements are met. Documentation provided upon completion for rental property compliance.

Very friendly plumbers. The work performed was of excellent quality and most importantly, the plumbers where very careful not to damage any walls, door frames or furniture. I felt I was in good hands during the duration of the boiler installation.

Always very satisfied with the quality, speed and price of Shepley's work. They previously installed my boiler (with radiator flush) and today completed my annual service. The guys are always friendly and efficient. A great local business.

Been using Shepley for years and there's a reason for that - they are very, very good. This time was a simple boiler service, but over the years they've installed boilers, hot water tanks, underfloor heating, kitchen and bathroom appliances, etc. We've not had a single problem and the work has always been done to the highest standard. We've always been very happy with their service.

Found the fault for our lack of sustained hot water pressure with our Megaflo unvented hot water system. Repaired and we now have really effective hot water pressure. Shepley were efficient, friendly, honest and trustworthy. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend! Service:Heating system repair

Used Shepley for a new oil fired boiler installation just before Xmas. Have to say, service was excellent overall. Wasn't a straight-forward install (especially the flue), but Derek and the team went above and beyond to make sure that we were 100% happy. Also cleaned up, fully tested and even sorted out the manufacturers guarantee for us! Would recommend to anyone. great job guys.

When my 20-year-old boiler started to fail. Contacted many companies for quote and Shepley were around the best price. Once I checked the reviews it was a no-brainer. I am happy to say that they did a fantastic job, cleaned up after and were polite and respectful I have no hesitation in recommending Shepley 5 stars

Excellent service was provided and at a reasonable cost. Completed the job really quickly as they went out of their way to fit us in which was really appreciated as we were without any hot water. Really nice workforce we had Robert and Derrick who were so tidy and they even took off their shoes. Amazing job done by them both so would thoroughly recommend.
