Welcome to Aquaheat.org.uk!
My name is Stephen and I am the owner of the company.
I have over 15 years of experience in installing, repairing and servicing of all types of domestic heating and plumbing systems.
I am Gas Safe registered (Reg no: 72646) and I'm certified to work in all areas of domestic gas installation and repair (you can check this by clicking on the Gas Safe web site link at the top of this page). I'm also qualified to install un-vented hot water systems. As a plumber and heating engineer, I had to sit and pass an exam in order to carry this work out.

I have a person who works with me and will be taking on other people at some point (obviously depending on workload). However, I do not want to lose the personal touch with customers as I feel this is what keeps my business healthy and helps me to keep costs down for the customer.
When we work in a customer's house we make every effort to be clean and tidy. As a matter of course we put dust sheets down and fully clean up after the work has been completed.

A bit of history...
I started working as an apprentice for a large heating company called Harp Heating. Here I learned how to install all types of domestic heating systems. I trained at Dartford College for two years on a City & Guilds in Heating and Ventilation. After which I worked for a plumbing company for the next two years installing and repairing bathrooms and heating.
I then took on a large contract to refurbish 12 flats in the Crystal Palace area. After completing this project (on time and within budget) I then started installing new waste systems and complete pipe work carcassing for all the bathrooms and heating. The heating was all conventional heating with back boilers and front gas fires with cylinder cupboards for stored hot water.
I worked a further two years for a local contractor based in South West London, servicing, fault-finding and repairing all types of domestic heating systems in the social housing sector.
At the age of 25 yrs old I set up my own plumbing and heating business. I employed two others and sometimes more for larger projects. We covered all types of domestic works and insurance work for big companies. Also I gained a large contract with Transco Gas Suppliers. I still have the contract to this day.
