New boilers for Elswick terraces and flats

Elswick is part of Newcastle's west end. The streets are mainly long terraces, and many of those buildings are Tyneside flats: one flat upstairs, one downstairs, each with its own boiler. A big share of the homes are rented. That mix shapes nearly every installation we do here.

Upstairs and downstairs flats

With two boilers in one building, flue positions get crowded. The new flue must be far enough from windows and doors, and that includes the other flat's. The upstairs condensate has to find a way down, ideally into the kitchen waste inside the flat rather than a long pipe on the back wall. A combi is nearly always the right boiler, because there is no room for a cylinder. We plan all of this at the survey.

Terraced houses

Where a terrace has not been split, it often still has an older boiler in the kitchen or a back room. Some have a cylinder and loft tank. If you are replacing the boiler anyway, it can be a good time to move it somewhere more sensible or switch to a combi, since the system is already drained.

Checking the water supply

A combi only gives as much hot water as the mains supply lets it. In older property the incoming supply can be modest, so we measure the flow before choosing the boiler. A bigger boiler will not fix a weak supply.

Your fixed price

Prices start from £1,790 including installation and VAT. Converting a tank system, moving the boiler or dealing with an awkward flue will add to that, but you see the full fixed figure before agreeing. It will not change once work starts.

Picking the boiler

We fit Worcester Bosch, Vaillant and Baxi, sized to the flat or house rather than to a sales target. Some useful reading: what size boiler you need, combi versus system boilers and choosing the right boiler. If you are not sure the old one needs replacing, read our repair or replace guide first.

Landlords and tenants in Elswick

Much of Elswick is rented, so we often deal with both sides. If you are a landlord, we can contact your tenant to book the survey and the fitting day, keep the disruption to one day where possible, and send you the paperwork afterwards. You will need an annual landlord gas safety certificate, and we can do that check on the same visit.

If you rent your home, the boiler is your landlord's responsibility. Tell them if it is failing. You are welcome to pass them our details or this page.

Paying for it

Finance is available through Ideal4Finance, subject to status. The rate depends on your circumstances, the amount and the term. See our boiler finance page for examples.

Other help in the west end

We also do boiler repairs with a fixed price diagnosis from £89, annual servicing from £80 plus VAT, and power flushing. If an older system has slow or patchy radiators, it may be sludge rather than the boiler: see central heating slow to warm up, radiators cold at the bottom and boiler kettling.

Elswick new boiler FAQs

Questions from owners, landlords and tenants in NE4.

I own a downstairs Tyneside flat in Elswick. Where can the new flue go? +
It has to clear your windows and doors and those of the flat above. Often the old spot still works. If not, we find another position or use a plume kit. The survey settles it before you pay anything.
I am a landlord with three flats in NE4. Can you replace them one after another? +
Yes. We can price each one, arrange access with each tenant and plan the installs around them. We can also do the gas safety checks on the same visits.
I rent my flat and the boiler keeps failing. Can I book a new one? +
The boiler belongs to your landlord, who is responsible for it. Let them know. They can contact us for a price and we will arrange the visit with you.
How much does a new boiler cost in Elswick? +
From £1,790 including installation and VAT. The online quote gives you a fixed figure for the property, confirmed at the survey.
Will a bigger combi give a better shower in an old terrace? +
Not if the water supply is the limit. We measure the mains flow first and size the boiler to match.
How long does it take? +
A combi swap in the same position is usually one day. Moving the boiler or switching from a tank system is normally two.
Is the survey free? +
Yes, free and with no obligation. The engineer who comes out is the one who would fit the boiler.
