Heating systems designed with resident comfort and safety in mind

Residents in care homes often have greater vulnerability to temperature fluctuations or system failures.

A room that is too cold, or hot water that is slow to arrive, can lead to discomfort or poorer quality of care. Many care homes still operate older boiler systems, poorly zoned heating or inadequate controls that make maintaining a safe environment harder than it should be.

We help care homes review existing heating set‑ups, identify weak areas and recommend improvements that deliver consistent warmth, better control and improved energy performance, all scheduled so we minimise disruption to your residents and staff.

Plumbing built to cope with high demand and high standards

In care homes, day‑to‑day plumbing is under constant use.

Washrooms, showers, kitchens, communal areas and private rooms all require reliable water supply, safe temperature control and effective drainage. When systems fail, the impact is immediate and serious.

We support care homes with practical plumbing solutions. Whether it is getting to the root of low water pressure, replacing ageing pipework or upgrading hot water systems, we make sure plumbing is fit for purpose, safe and compliant with the health and regulatory standards expected in the sector.

Maintaining hot water performance and regulatory compliance

Hot water in care homes is non‑optional.

It supports hygiene, laundry, cleaning and resident service. Systems unable to meet demand or deliver consistent temperature become a liability, not just an annoyance.

We install, service and upgrade hot water systems for care homes and assisted living properties, ensuring that capacity, circulation and control deliver what your property needs. Alongside performance we manage compliance requirements including gas appliance safety, thermostatic mixing valves, cold and hot water temperature controls, legionella risk management and full documentation for audit and inspection.

Your residents and staff deserve systems that work reliably and meet every standard.

Care homes often need more than one‑off fixes.

They need a partner who will support their systems year on year, offering planned maintenance, upgrades and advice as requirements change.
