Swaythling has a notable mix of housing, established 1930s and 1950s semis in the residential streets around Swaythling High Street, student accommodation near the university, and some more recent development closer to the airport and motorway links. The proximity to the university means there's also a significant population of landlords who need annual gas safety certificates.
I carry out a lot of boiler servicing and gas safety work in this area, both for owner-occupiers and landlords. If you own a rental property in Swaythling, I can carry out the annual CP12 certificate and boiler service in one visit, which is what the law requires for rented properties and is the most efficient way to handle it.

“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.”

Yes, I cover all of Swaythling including the residential streets around Swaythling High Street and the areas adjacent to the University of Southampton campus. I'm regularly working in this part of the city.
Yes, combining an annual boiler service with the landlord gas safety inspection is the most efficient approach and is something I recommend. Both can be carried out in a single visit, and I'll issue the CP12 certificate on the same day.
Original cast iron radiators from the 1930s can still work well if the system is maintained properly. They hold more water and heat more slowly than modern steel radiators, but they also retain heat longer. If they're not leaking and are heating correctly, there's no urgent need to replace them. If efficiency is a concern, I can advise on options.
