Bitterne Manor sits close to the eastern bank of the Itchen and contains some of the area's oldest housing stock. Victorian and Edwardian properties here often have original cast iron pipework, lead sections, or gravity-fed heating systems that require specific knowledge to work on safely and effectively.
I regularly attend properties near Bitterne Manor Road and Manor Farm Road. Lead pipe replacement is something I carry out fairly often in this area, if your property was built before the 1970s, it's worth getting the pipework checked, particularly the section from the street into the house.

“Wes diagnosed and then replaced a faulty valve on my heating system that was leaking. Excellent, reliable and prompt. Finding a local, knowledgeable and dependable heating engineer is something worth knowing about.”
“We were able to book Wes promptly after moving in to a new house to service the two boilers. He was efficient, professional and tidied up after he had finished. Reasonable charge too.”
“We have used Wes on more than one occasion and he has always provided a prompt, efficient service. When Wes says he has fixed a problem, it stays fixed.”

Pre-1950 properties in Bitterne Manor often have lead pipework on the water supply side, cast iron waste pipes, and gravity-fed hot water systems. Lead pipes are the most important to address, I can inspect and replace these, and advise on the most cost-effective approach for your property.
Yes, including fitting a new combi boiler to replace an older conventional system or back boiler. Many Bitterne Manor properties are good candidates for upgrading to a modern combi, which removes the need for a hot water tank and usually improves efficiency significantly.
For genuine emergencies such as a gas leak or burst pipe, I aim to attend as quickly as possible. For urgent heating failures, no heating or hot water, I can usually attend the same day. Bitterne Manor is well within my regular coverage area.
