Plumbing & Heating Services

Guardian Edge provides plumbing and heating services across the UK — emergency leak and escape-of-water attendance, boiler repair and replacement, heating system installation and servicing, water hygiene support, and the reinstatement works that follow a leak.

Leaks stopped, heating restored, and the cause dealt with.

Who this is for

  • Landlords, letting agents and managing agents
  • Facilities managers with commercial heating plant
  • Housing providers with heating programmes
  • Commercial and industrial premises

Problems it solves

  • Water is coming through a ceiling and nobody can find the source
  • A boiler has failed and a tenant has no heating or hot water
  • The same radiator or valve keeps failing
  • A leak was stopped but the damage was never made good
  • Communal plant is running inefficiently and nobody has serviced it

Before we price anything

Inspection & survey process

  1. 01

    Find the actual source

    Water travels. The stain is rarely above the leak, and opening up the wrong ceiling is expensive.

  2. 02

    Assess the system, not just the fault

    Repeated failures usually indicate a system problem — pressure, water quality, or an installation that was never balanced.

On site

How the work is delivered

  1. 01

    Make safe and stop the loss

    Isolation first, damage limitation second, diagnosis third.

  2. 02

    Repair or replace

    With the cause addressed rather than the symptom patched.

  3. 03

    Reinstate

    Plastering, decoration and flooring restored by our own trades, so the job ends with the property looking right.

Compliance

What the rules actually require

  • Work on gas appliances must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
  • Water systems in non-domestic premises fall under the duty to control legionella risk. Where a written scheme applies, temperature monitoring and tank inspection are part of it.
  • Unvented hot water systems must be installed and maintained by someone holding the appropriate competence, and are notifiable under the Building Regulations.
  • Landlords have a duty under section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 to keep installations for water, gas, sanitation and space and water heating in repair and proper working order.

Standards & legislation

These are not all the same kind of obligation, and we do not present them as if they were. A statutory duty is law. A British Standard is the recognised way of demonstrating you have met one. Guidance and our own recommendations are neither.

  • Official guidanceACOP L8 / HSG274

    Legionnaires' disease — control of legionella bacteria in water systems

    The HSE approved code of practice and guidance underpinning water hygiene duties in non-domestic premises.

  • Legal requirementLandlord and Tenant Act 1985, s.11

    Repairing obligations

    Includes installations for the supply of water, gas, electricity, sanitation, space heating and heating water.

Ongoing support

Planned, reactive and multi-site.

Most providers do one of these well. The value of a single provider is that the schedule, the emergency and the portfolio all sit in the same place.

Planned maintenance

  • Annual boiler and plant servicing
  • Seasonal pre-winter heating checks across a portfolio
  • Planned component replacement on communal plant

Reactive support

  • 24-hour attendance for leaks, escape of water and loss of heating
  • Priority attendance where a property has vulnerable occupants

Multi-site & national portfolios

  • One plumbing and heating contractor across every site
