When we needed a new boiler, TM Hughes supplied and fitted it promptly and efficiently. The heating/hot water system was checked thoroughly after installation, including existing radiators, and the kitchen cleared and tidied afterwards. I have used this company for a number of years for boiler and hot water cylinder checks and maintenance, and can recommend them to others.

TM Hughes has serviced and worked on correcting my boiler installation (from a different and poor company) for 5 years. They have always been very professional and, importantly, turned up on time. The work is reasonably priced, and I have never had an issue with what they have done for me.

During a recent boiler fault, which was hard to diagnose, Terry, the owner, became involved and was absolutely great in helping me to resolve this with Glowworm under warranty. Very friendly, approachable, knowledgeable, and gives honest advice that a customer can trust.

I highly recommend TM Hughes and will use them for years to come and do recommend them to my friends, family, and anyone reading this review!

Absolutely first class service, although he was very busy he still found a bit of time to take a look and see why we had no heating or hot water. I thought that this level of customer service died out a long time ago but totally impressed by the "above and beyond" dedication that was shown to try and help us. I cannot recommend them high enough, if there was a facility to give a 'perfect 10' then Terry would easily get it. As they say, Forget the rest, just call the best

Free Boiler Installation Surveys & Quotes

Welcome To TM Hughes & Son Gas Services Ltd. We install new Boilers in Wickford.

Our Gas Safe Registered engineers have installed many Boilers throughout the area over the past three decades.

We offer guarantees of up to 12 years on New Boilers.

Free Boiler Installation Surveys & Quotes

If you’re in the market for a new Boiler, we’d like to offer you a free, no-obligation survey and quote.

One of our engineers who fits Boilers daily will undertake the survey, not a commission-based salesman who doesn’t install Boilers.

During the survey, the engineer will

  • Inspect your current Boiler and heating system
  • Establish your heating and hot water requirements
  • Go through the available Boiler options depending on your requirements
  • Answer all your questions
  • Establish the best make, type and size of Boiler for your heating and hot water requirements
  • Write you a free, no-obligation quote

The survey is swift. Our engineers are friendly, polite and professional. You won’t be subjected to any laborious sales pitches.

free-boiler-installations
boiler-replacements-upgrades-wickford

Boiler Replacements & Upgrades

Replacements and upgrades are the most common type of Boiler installation we undertake in Wickford.

Your old Boiler has been removed, and a new boiler of the same type has been installed. It will work with your current central heating setup.

Since your last Boiler was installed, your heating and hot water usage may have changed.

If you require more heating and hot water capacity, we can upgrade your Boiler. For example, install a larger Boiler or add a hot water storage cylinder if you currently have a ‘combination Boiler’.

Alternatively, may you use less hot water? And you no longer need a hot water storage tank? Maybe you have a clunky traditional system with water tanks.

If so, we can install a modern combination boiler and remove the cylinder and water tanks, freeing up much space in your home.

Central Heating System Upgrades

We can also upgrade your central heating system with digital controls, which have thermostatic valves and range from manual to smart.  

Upgraded digital controls and thermostats will make your system easier to set and use. With smart controls, you can operate your central heating system via an app on your smart device.

Upgraded Thermostatic valves fitted to your radiators allow you to set the temperature of each room. These can be manually operated, adjusting the temperature with a twist, or smart and controlled from an app.

New Central Heating Systems & Boilers

If you have an old Boiler and an older central heating system, you may want a brand-new one installed along with your new Boiler.

If you have had a major renovation, you may need a new boiler and heating system. This includes an extension, major conversion, or new build.

We can design and build the best central heating system for your new space, including the best boiler type and size.

Selecting The Right Boiler

During the survey, our engineer will determine the best Boiler for your home by taking into consideration

  • The size of your home & number of radiators
  • The number of people living in your home
  • The number of bathrooms in your home
  • Your hot water usage
  • Your heating usage
  • Your current Boiler and central heating system
  • The available fuel at your property

These factors will establish the best type and size of Boilers for your property.

The right Boiler must be purchased. Once installed, you will rely on it for 10+ years to provide heating and hot water.

Buying the wrong size Boiler can lead to wasted energy and money or insufficient capacity to fulfil your needs.

We’ll ensure the right Boiler is selected and fitted for you.

central-heating-upgrades

Efficient Condensing Boilers

All Boilers are condensing-style. They are 90-99% efficient. This means only 10-1% of the fuel is wasted in combustion.

The Boilers are built to capture and reuse escaping gasses to heat water.

Old Boilers have been found to waste up to 45% of fuel. Upgrading to a new Boiler can save you money on your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.

The Boiler Types

Most of the condensing Boilers we fit are Combination or System Boilers. We also sometimes fit Regular Boilers.

condensing-boilers-wickford
combination-boilers

Combination Boilers

Combination Boilers are a single unit that doesn’t utilise external tanks, pumps, or cylinders. The combination Boiler is the most commonly fitted. Accounting for over 50% of Boiler installations in Wickford.

Advantages Of Combination Boiler

  • Everything is built into the Boiler
  • No external tanks or cylinders required saving space
  • Quicker and cheaper installation than system or regular Boilers
  • Simple to maintain and easy to work on
  • Heats water instantly 
  • Work best for small to medium-sized homes

Disadvantages Of A Combination Boiler

  • Hot water runs at your main household pressure, with no option to increase pressure.
  • Pressure may decline if the hot tap and shower run simultaneously
  • No backup hot water supply in the event of Boiler failure

System Boilers

System Boilers work in conjunction with a pressurised hot water storage cylinder.

Advantages Of A System Boiler

  • Includes a pressurised cylinder that ensures hot water’s always available.
  • Can supply multiple Bathrooms and hot taps at the same time
  • Doesn’t require a feed and expansion tank
  • Backup immersion heater on the cylinder provides hot water backup in the event of Boiler failure
  • Work best for medium to large-sized homes

Disadvantages Of A System Boiler

  • Space is required for the cylinder
  • Water is not heated instantly, so you need to set your controls to ensure you have hot water available at the right time
  • More expensive to fit than combi boilers
system-boilers
regular-boilers

Regular Boilers

Regular Boilers are fitted to traditional systems using vented cylinder and feed tanks. Regular systems are common in older Wickford properties.

Advantages Of A Regular Boiler

  • Will work in homes with low mains pressure
  • Hot water is maintained even if someone else is running water in the home 
  • Work with old central heating systems
  • An immersion heater can be fitted to the cylinder to provide backup hot water in the event of a Boiler breakdown
  • Suitable for providing multiple bathrooms at the same time
  • Best for use in large homes or homes with old central heating systems

Disadvantages Of A Regular Boiler

  • Space is needed for water tanks and cylinder
  • Not as efficient as modern combination or system boilers
  • Water takes time to heat
  • Hot water can run out and will require time to reheat
  • A Regular Boiler central heating system requires more external parts than a combination or system Boilers

Boiler Sizes

All Combination, System and Regular Boilers are available in different sizes.

An adequately sized boiler will be fitted to accommodate the number of bathrooms and radiators in your home.

Domestic Boilers are available in the following sizes

  • 24-27 kW for homes with up to 10 radiators
  • 28-32 kW for homes with up to 15 radiators
  • 35-42 kW for homes with over 15 radiators

Makes Of Boilers We Fit

We install most makes of Boilers and are accredited installers for Worcester Bosch, Glow Worm, Baxi, Potterton, Vaillant and Ideal.

Installing Your Boiler

Once we have determined the best Boiler for your home, we will provide you with a free, no-obligation quote.

If you’re happy with the quote and want to proceed, we can arrange a convenient date to install your Boiler.

The Boiler and all the necessary parts will be ordered so they are on hand on installation day.

We plan and undertake all installations using time-tested procedures, which ensure a swift, thorough, and tidy fitting.

Once your Boiler is fitted, the engineer will test it thoroughly and make any necessary adjustments to your central heating system and controls. This will ensure that you get the most out of your new Boiler.
