Top service. We were given an approx time when someone would turn up and they did as promised. The plummer was very knowledgeable and personable and fixed our problem with little problem even though they had to go out and get a part. We would recommend this company if someone needs to look for a plummer. David - Colchester.

Recently had a boiler service by TM Hughes & Son. Very professional, reliable and friendly service. They did my actual boiler installation last year and were superb, not just with the installation but fault finding and fixing in other parts of the heating system too.

Terry and his team were extremely efficient at coming to rectify my boiler when it packed in around November. I contacted him late in the evening, and he spent the time to talk through the potential issues, before sending out one of his team the following morning. They were quick, tidy, and knew the problem straight away. I would certainly recommend TM Hughes.

Leak Detection

Hidden leaks don’t just waste water — they quietly damage your home and drive up your bills.

If you’ve noticed unexplained increases in water usage, damp patches, reduced pressure, or the sound of running water with no visible source, it’s time to act before the problem escalates.

We provide accurate, non-invasive leak detection across underground pipework, internal plumbing and heating systems — locating the source precisely without unnecessary damage to floors, walls or landscaping.

  • Find hidden leaks fast

Taps

A dripping or faulty tap might seem minor — but left unresolved, it wastes water, increases bills, and becomes a daily frustration.

We supply, repair and install kitchen and bathroom taps of all styles, from traditional fittings to modern mixer taps.

If a simple repair will solve the issue, we’ll carry it out efficiently. If replacement is the smarter long-term option, we’ll advise you clearly and install your new tap neatly and securely.

  • Tap installation
  • Tap repairs and replacements

Toilets

We install and replace all common toilet styles, ensuring correct alignment, solid fixing, balanced flushing performance and leak-free connections from day one.

If you’re upgrading your bathroom, we’ll advise on the most suitable option for your layout and plumbing setup.

We also provide toilet repairs and unblocking services, resolving problems such as leaking seals, faulty flush mechanisms and blockages quickly and cleanly.

Showers

We install and replace a wide range of shower systems, ensuring pipework is securely connected, water pressure is properly balanced, and temperature controls are accurately set for safe, comfortable use.

If your shower is running cold, losing pressure, leaking, or failing to maintain a stable temperature, we’ll carry out a fault assessment and complete the necessary repairs.

For properties with low water pressure, we also install shower pumps, which improve flow and enhance shower performance.

  • Shower installation
  • Shower pump installation
  • Shower repairs

Waste Disposal Units

A waste disposal unit makes everyday kitchen clean-up quicker, cleaner and more hygienic — reducing food waste build-up and unpleasant odours.

Positioned discreetly beneath your sink, these systems grind food waste into fine particles that flow safely through your drainage system when installed correctly.

We install and repair a variety of waste disposal units. We ensure secure mounting, safe electrical connection and correct drainage alignment.

If your unit is jammed, leaking, or no longer functioning as it should, we’ll carry out the necessary repairs or replacement.

  • Waste disposal unit installation
  • Repairs and unblocking

Saniflo Systems

Saniflo systems enable the installation of toilets and showers in locations where traditional drainage isn’t available. Opening up options for loft conversions, basements, cloakrooms and outbuildings.

Providing a practical, space-saving solution without major structural alterations. However, precise setup and correct pipework routing are essential for reliable, quiet operation.

We install and repair Saniflo systems across North Weald, ensuring safe electrical connections, secure discharge pipework and proper configuration to reduce the risk of blockages or pump issues.

  • Saniflo installation
  • Ideal for lofts, basements and cloakrooms
  • Fit a toilet or shower anywhere in your home

Heating Services

Your central heating system isn’t just a Boiler — it’s a network of components that must work together  to keep your home warm and your energy costs under control.

With over 30 years of experience, our Gas Safe registered engineers install, service and repair gas, electric, and LPG heating systems across North Weald. We ensure every element, from radiators and pipework to controls and safety devices, works as it should.

  • Boiler Installation

  • Heating Pumps

Boiler Installation

We install and upgrade Boilers. Whether you require a straightforward like-for-like replacement or a complete system upgrade, we ensure your new Boiler integrates seamlessly with your current heating system.

If your household demand has increased, we can install higher-output Boilers or incorporate sealed hot water cylinders. Ensuring sufficient pressure and consistent hot water throughout your home.

Looking to simplify an older system? We can replace bulky tanks and cylinders with a modern, space-saving Combi Boiler — delivering efficient heating and hot water in one compact unit.

Every home is different. That’s why we provide a free, no-obligation survey and quote for all new Boiler installations.

  • Boiler installation
  • All types of Boilers fitted
  • Warranties up to 12 years
  • All major brands fitted
  • Free survey and quotes

Boiler Servicing & Repairs

A serviced Boiler is far less likely to break down — and will run efficiently, safely and within manufacturer warranty conditions.

During your service, our Gas Safe-registered engineers will carry out an inspection, cleaning, and performance check of working components.

If your Boiler develops a fault or stops working, we provide same-day repair services with no call-out charges.

  • Boiler servicing
  • Boiler repairs with no call-out charges
  • All types and makes are covered

Underfloor Heating

Underfloor heating offers a cleaner, more discreet way to heat your home. Delivering consistent warmth across the entire room while eliminating the need for wall-mounted radiators.

We install both water-based (wet) and electric underfloor heating systems. We’ll provide the most suitable system based on your property type, flooring materials and overall heating requirements.

Wet systems integrate with your existing Boiler to circulate warm water through concealed pipework beneath the floor. Electric systems use heating cables and are often ideal for smaller areas or retrofit projects.

We also provide servicing and repairs for existing underfloor heating systems.

  • Wet and electric underfloor heating installations
  • Free surveys and quotes
  • Servicing & Repairs

underfloor-heating-north-weald
powerflush-north-weald

Power Flushing

If your radiators have cold spots, take a long time to heat up, or only warm at the top, your heating system may be restricted by internal sludge and debris.

Over time, corrosion, rust and limescale build up inside pipework and radiators — reducing circulation, lowering efficiency and placing unnecessary strain on your Boiler.

Powerflushing is a professional deep-cleaning process which restores proper water flow and improves overall system performance.

Using specialist Kamco powerflushing equipment, we circulate cleaning solutions at high velocity through your heating system. Safely breaking down and removing sludge.

The result is more even heat distribution, improved efficiency and reduced stress on your Boiler. Helping to extend its lifespan and restore heating performance throughout your home.

  • Powerflushing with Kamco machines and chemicals
  • Removes sludge and debris from heating systems
  • Fixes cold spots and slow-heating radiators
  • Improves efficiency and Boiler lifespan


Gas Safety Inspections

If you rent out property in North Weald, a valid Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) isn’t optional — it’s a legal requirement.

Gas appliances, pipework, and flues must be inspected annually by a Gas Safe-registered engineer, and certification must be issued to maintain compliance and protect both you and your tenants.

Our experienced engineers carry out CP12 inspections. Ensuring all relevant safety checks are completed accurately and efficiently.

If any appliance or installation fails to meet safety standards, we can often complete the necessary remedial work the same day — helping you avoid delays, tenant disruption or extended void periods.

On completion, we provide the official certification for your records.

  • Annual gas safety checks for landlords
  • CP12 certification
  • No obligation quotes for remedial work where needed

Gas Fire Servicing

A serviced gas fire is safer, more efficient and far less likely to develop faults during the colder months.

Over time, internal components can accumulate debris or become misaligned, reducing efficiency and potentially increasing safety risks.

During a gas fire service, our Gas-Safe registered engineers clean and inspect key components, check ventilation and flue performance, and confirm the appliance is burning correctly and safely.

We also conduct safety checks, including carbon monoxide testing, to ensure your fire runs properly and your household remains protected.

Routine servicing not only improves performance and fuel efficiency — it provides reassurance that your appliance meets current safety standards.

Please note: we provide gas fire servicing only and do not undertake gas fire repairs.

  • Gas fire servicing
  • Full inspection, cleaning and safety checks
  • Carbon monoxide testing included
  • Servicing only (no gas fire repairs)


Gas Cooker Installation

Gas cooker installation isn’t a DIY job — it requires precise fitting, secure connections, and safety testing by a qualified Gas Safe-registered engineer.

We’ll safely disconnect your old appliance and connect your new one in full compliance with current gas safety standards.

Every connection is carefully fitted, pressure-tested and checked for leaks to ensure safe, reliable operation from the moment it’s switched on.

Professional installation protects your household, ensures legal compliance and preserves your manufacturer’s warranty.

  • Includes testing
  • Gas appliance installation
  • Safe disconnection
