Hornchurch is one of the bigger town centres we cover from our Romford base, taking in the High Street, Harrow Lodge Park, and the streets around Hornchurch and Upminster Bridge stations. Property here ranges from Victorian and Edwardian houses near the old village core around St Andrew's Church to inter-war semis and later estates further out. We handle bathroom installations, boiler servicing and repairs, radiator work, and general plumbing repairs for homeowners and landlords across the area.
Plumbing & Heating in Hornchurch Homes
The oldest part of Hornchurch, around St Andrew's Church and the High Street, has a scatter of Victorian and Edwardian houses, but most of the town was built up in the 1930s as London's suburbs spread east. That means street after street of bay-fronted semis, many still on their original layout even where the plumbing has been updated over the decades.
In houses of that age it's common to find old lead or galvanised steel supply pipes that need replacing, and cold water tanks in the loft feeding a gravity hot water system. A lot of homeowners are converting these to a combi or unvented system for better pressure and to free up airing cupboard space, which needs care around the existing pipe runs and, for an unvented cylinder, a G3-qualified installer.
Essex water is hard, and it shows on older boilers and showers here as much as anywhere else in Havering: limescale build-up on shower heads, tap aerators, and inside a boiler's heat exchanger, which can reduce efficiency and eventually cause a fault if it isn't dealt with.

"Dan and Mitch provided an excellent service for the installation of my new shower. They arrived on time and were very respectful and friendly. The work they did was of superb quality and we would definitely use their company again. We were highly impressed with the price they charged as this seemed very reasonable. Thank you very much."
"I requested Dan and his team to help locate and fix a leaking water pipe in a small block of flats. The work carried out was of an excellent standard with minimal fuss and in a timely manner. Dan and his team explained clearly the work that had to be done and communicated clearly with all parties impacted. Dan has undertaken a number of jobs for me in the last 2 years all of which have been completed to the highest standard. Highly recommended."
"Dan kindly called in after work and managed to source the problem in the dark. Then came back the next day at the time specified with the new part I needed. Went above and beyond would highly recommend"
