Heating Engineer & Plumber, Walsall

Walsall is a straight run up the A34 from our Handsworth Wood base, and it is one of the four towns we have covered continuously since we started.

Heating work in Walsall

Much of Walsall's housing is post-war semi-detached and terraced, with a strong concentration of ex-local-authority stock around Bloxwich, Willenhall and Darlaston. Systems here are often original pipework with a replacement boiler on top, which is exactly the profile that produces sludge, cold radiators and premature pump failure.

We also do a lot of landlord work across the borough. CP12 certificates are £90 covering boiler and cooker, and we can add a boiler service for £50 at the same visit rather than making two trips.

Recent work in Walsall

A third-floor flat leak, September 2026. A split flexi hose under a basin had sent mains-pressure water through the two flats below. We were on site 45 minutes after the call and had a new tap and hoses fitted and tested 1 hour 45 minutes after the phone rang. Read the full case study, with photos.

A Worcester Greenstar Ri in ignition lockout, September 2026. The customer had been told by previous engineers that he needed a new boiler. With the burner out we found a perished burner gasket and a damaged electrode, fitted both from van stock and tested it back into service on the same visit. Read the case study.

A landlord's boiler locking out on overheat, April 2026. The system pump had burnt out, choked with sludge. Replaced from van stock on the same visit, with a system flush recommended and a straight word to the landlord that the repair was avoidable with regular maintenance. Read the case study.

A Glow-worm Easicom in Walsall Wood with heating but no hot water — the classic diverter valve failure. Correct part ordered, fitted on the return visit, hot water restored.

A Glow-worm Betacom in Bloxwich dropping pressure: the expansion vessel needed recharging and the pressure relief valve had failed. The PRV is a part we stock on the van, so it was one visit.

A Bloxwich semi on original 1930s pipework had two radiators running cold no matter how the system was bled. Sludge in the far end of the run — a flush and a filter cleared it properly.

A landlord managing several ex-local-authority properties across WS2 asked us to bundle CP12s with a basic service on each visit, cutting his number of appointments in half.
