Steve & his son
If you're in Enderby and your boiler's on the blink, or you've got a pipe that won't stop dripping under the sink, Steve and his son can come and sort it. They're a father-and-son plumbing and heating team working out of Glen Parva, so Enderby is straightforward for them, not some far-flung job that gets bumped down the list. They know the area well, from the older housing round Enderby Hall down to the newer estates that have gone up nearer Fosse Park, and they've worked on plenty of systems in between. Whether it's a full boiler installation, a service to keep your warranty valid, a swap because your old boiler's finally given up, or a blocked drain that's making a mess of your day, they'll turn up, explain what's wrong in plain English, and get on with fixing it. Gas Safe registered, rated 10/10 on Checkatrade from 131 reviews, and 5.0 stars on Google. That's not luck, it's just doing the job properly, every time.
Enderby homes and common issues
Enderby's a real mix once you get off the main roads. You've got the older brick terraces and semis down near the village centre and Mill Hill, a fair few 1960s and 70s council-built semis and bungalows around the Grove Road and Braunstone Lane areas, and then the newer estates that have gone up towards Meridian and the Enderby Business Park end, some private new-build, some housing association. The older places tend to have been extended or had lofts converted at some point, which usually means the heating system's been added to and stretched further than it was ever designed for. The newer builds are mostly straightforward combi setups, but they're not immune to trouble either, especially where corners get cut on the initial install.
- Older terraces and semis around the village centre often still have grouped or wet central heating from a previous conversion, and the pipework doesn't always cope well with a straight boiler swap without some rework
- 1960s and 70s council-era semis and bungalows tend to have combis or system boilers tucked into small airing cupboards or kitchen units, which restricts airflow and access, and we see a lot of premature wear because of it
- Loft conversions and rear extensions on the older housing stock frequently mean radiators added onto an already stretched system, so we get called out for cold spots, poor pressure and boilers struggling to keep up
- Newer estate builds near Meridian and the business park are mostly combi systems, but with all the new-build work going on locally we regularly find snagging issues, badly fitted flues or corners cut by the original installer that only show up months down the line

Enderby - frequently asked questions
- Do you cover Enderby for boiler installations?
- Yes, we install boilers across Enderby regularly, in the older village properties and the newer estates alike. We'll come out, have a look at your setup, and give you a straight quote with no pressure to go bigger or pricier than you actually need.
- Can you fix a leaking pipe or tap in Enderby?
- Absolutely, leaks are one of the most common jobs we get called out for. Whether it's a dripping tap, a pipe under the kitchen sink, or something less obvious that's causing damp patches, we'll track it down and fix it properly rather than just patching over it.
- How quickly can you get to an Enderby address for an emergency?
- We're based just up the road in Glen Parva, so Enderby is one of the areas we can respond to fast. If you've got a burst pipe or no heating in the middle of winter, give us a call and we'll do our best to get to you the same day.
- Do you service boilers near Fosse Park and the surrounding estates?
- Yes, we regularly service boilers in that part of Enderby. An annual service keeps things running efficiently, catches small problems before they become expensive ones, and keeps your warranty valid if your boiler's still covered.
- What do you do about blocked drains in Enderby?
- We deal with blocked drains and blocked pipes throughout Enderby, from slow-draining sinks to more stubborn blockages further down the line. We'll get it cleared and, if there's a recurring issue, tell you honestly what's causing it rather than just clearing it and moving on.
- Can you swap or upgrade an old boiler in an Enderby property?
- Yes, boiler swaps and upgrades are a big part of what we do. A lot of the older properties around Enderby Hall still have boilers that are well past their best, and we can talk you through what a modern, more efficient replacement would look like for your home.
- Do you work on general plumbing jobs, not just boilers?
- Definitely, general plumbing is just as much our bread and butter as boiler work. New bathroom fittings, toilet repairs, radiator issues, outside taps, if it involves pipes and water, we can likely help.
- Are you Gas Safe registered for boiler work in Enderby?
- Yes, we're fully Gas Safe registered, which is a legal requirement for anyone working on gas boilers and appliances. You can check our registration yourself, and we're always happy to show our ID card on site.
- What if my radiators aren't heating up properly?
- Cold radiators or ones with cold spots are usually down to trapped air, sludge build-up, or a balancing issue. We can bleed and balance your system, or if it's more serious, a power flush, and get your heating working evenly through the house again.
- Do you offer free quotes for jobs in Enderby?
- Yes, we'll always give you a proper quote before any work starts, no hidden extras sprung on you halfway through. Just get in touch, tell us what's going on, and we'll arrange to come and have a look or talk you through it over the phone.
