Boiler repair in Lewisham
- Communal heating in blocks, where the fault frequently sits outside the flat reporting it
- Ex-local-authority properties on original pipework with limited isolation points
- Older systems in Ladywell and Hither Green terraces on their second or third boiler
Lewisham’s ex-council flats raise a particular boiler question. Many leaseholders bought theirs with whatever heating the council fitted decades ago, which can be a back boiler behind a gas fire, a warm-air heater in a hall cupboard blowing through ducts, or a combi added more recently. Each needs a different repair, and the older two can run into parts that are no longer made. Leaseholders own that equipment; tenants report faults to the council or housing association instead. In the Victorian and Edwardian terraces towards Ladywell, Hither Green and Catford, the stock is mostly combis in houses and flats, often on pipework that has outlived two boilers. The new towers in the town centre are on managed systems where building staff arrange access. Estate car parks are often residents-only, so tell us where a van can stop.

Common questions
Do you cover Lewisham?
We do. Lewisham falls within Lewisham, covering the SE13, SE4, SE6 postcodes, and our engineers are out across Greater London from our Fulham office every day.
Several flats in my block have no heating. Should we each call an engineer?
No — that gets you several callout charges for one fault. If the whole block is affected the problem is communal plant and it is the freeholder or managing agent who has to instruct the work. Report it collectively. If it turns out only your flat is affected, then it is yours.
I have warm-air heating in my flat. Can you still repair it?
Often, yes. A gas warm-air unit is a gas appliance like a boiler, and common faults such as a failed fan, thermostat or ignition part can usually be put right. They still turn up in Lewisham’s older council-built flats. The difficulty is age: some models are long out of production and parts can be scarce. If yours cannot be repaired, we explain the options, which may include a combi and radiators, before you commit to anything.
What does it cost?
You will have a price for the work before an engineer starts. If something behind the wall changes the scope, we pause and talk it through with you rather than carrying on and billing you afterwards.
