How long a heating installation typically takes

How we read installation timescales on site

A straightforward like-for-like swap in an accessible location generally takes less time than a job involving relocating the boiler, extending pipework, changing flue routes or upgrading controls to current standards. Where a household needs to be without heating or hot water for part of the process, this is planned and communicated in advance so it can be scheduled around the household's needs where possible.

Practical notes on installation timescales

• Like-for-like swaps generally take less time than relocations or upgrades
• Pipework changes, flue extensions and controls upgrades all extend duration
• Any period without heating or hot water is planned and communicated in advance
• Access difficulties can extend how long a job takes on site
• Timescales are confirmed once survey findings establish the actual scope

Questions we get asked

Can I get hot water during a longer installation?

This depends on the specific job, but temporary arrangements are discussed where a longer gap is expected.

Does timing change with the season?

Demand for heating work can be higher in colder months, which is worth factoring into how far ahead you book.
