We are delighted to have sponsored the Young person of the year award at the Lewisham Homes Residents Awards 2022. Our Director Natalie Oldfield attended and presented the award to the winner, James Osman.

“Jamie, like many young carers, has made many, many sacrifices in order to help out at home. He compromised his own needs to support his family and subsequently did not go on to higher education or into paid employment like many of his peers. Jamie’s contribution to the wider society, however, should not be underestimated. The help he provides as a voluntary unpaid carer has been invaluable; he works incredibly hard dealing with complex issues. He shows immense strength of character.“

Congratulations to all the winners and nominees.

Well done to our team of mountaineers who all reached the summit of Mount Snowdon. The group tackled the Pyg Track taking them 723m (2,372ft) and, once at the summit, had amazing views.  Over £700 was raised for MEAK (Medical and Educational Aid to Kenya).

We are pleased to have been awarded the contract with Medway Council for works at Fairview Primary School. We’ll be replacing the heating and hot water services pipework and heat emitters throughout the entire school. We’re looking forward to working with this new client.

We are delighted to have won the contract to refurbish the plant room in Highbury Grove for Islington Council. The works involve the replacement of the boiler and all associated building and electrical works. We have worked with the team at Islington on the boiler refurbishment project at Islington’s Town Hall and are looking forward to working with them again.

Our project to refurbish the roof top boiler room at Dartford’s Civic Centre has been handed over. The works included replacing the inefficient 40-year-old cast iron sectional boilers. We installed energy saving Remeha Gas 220 Ace condensing boilers. These free-standing boilers are lightweight and easy to move in to position. The boilers have all connections and pipework entering from the top which provided us with flexibility as to how they were positioned. We were able to speedily install the four boilers side by side. The small footprint of these boilers has provided easier access in the boiler room and will simplify future maintenance and servicing. Paul Koster, Building Manager at Dartford Borough Council, is happy with the result “The difference in size and functionality of the boilers is amazing. We now have total control over the heating system and hope to see a significant saving in running costs”.

Our Commercial Maintenance Team were delighted to be awarded the Commercial Gas Servicing and Maintenance contract for the London Borough of Havering. The three-year contract covers their 58 boiler rooms across the borough.
