Landlord Safety checks - from a plumber

In order for a landlord now-a-days to rent out their property they need the safety certificate for the boiler and Gas appliances.

These issues do not need to be complicated and expensive as a professional plumber can provide the landlord safety certificate after just one hours to two hours work.

Most landlord safety checks should not cost more than £60.00.

So for your landlord Safety check now check out the website.

Why not take advantage of our cheap boiler service now before winter is here and you are too late! Only £50.00 for a full service.

Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1994 (as amended) - all gas appliances must “be safe” - this is a legal requirement for all rented property and this needs to be done every 12 months.

This is what a Landlord safety certificate looks like.

A day in the life of a plumber.

We have all seen or heard of  the movies and you can imagine that it sounds rather dirty and that is not from fiddling round the back of toilets! Well the truth of the matter is, well I can only speak for myself nothing like that! We here at Daden's dedicate ourselves to keeping the customer happy but we have to draw a line somewhere!

Today we meet with a client to discuss the installation of a new central heating system. First thing we do is ask the customer what preferences they have if any and what make and model of boiler that they would like if they know. Many customers will have an idea but will need some direction on what boiler or heating system will suit their needs for the best possible price.

The Second step is to find out what system they are using already and if need be the disposal of the old system. If the new system requires a internal pipe work system talk to the customer about the most feasible and beat route to run the pipe work where it will be the least noticeable but also the most effective.

We will then discuss the size of each radiator for each room and style of rad, this is important as we do not want to install a too large rad in a room as this is overkill and alternatively we do not want to install one that is not going to heat the room fully.

After this we will measure the run routes for all pipe work and by doing this we can accurately give the customer a quote, generally speaking we can purchase central heating packs that include all the necessary radiators and pipe work so most houses can all work on the same price unless the house is extremely large or requires a special boiler.

After this we will advise the customer where to look for other quotes, as we are very competitive in our pricing we are confident that they will not find a better value and if they do then we are prepared to discuss a price matching. To find us on Google search Plumbers in Chelmsford.

We mainly work around Chelmsford Essex and find we keep our customer happy as they return time and time again for boiler servicing and other plumbing jobs e.g. bathroom installs.

So there you go unfortunately a day in the life of a plumber is not the most exciting but we do try to make other peoples days better by giving them particularly good value for their hard earned cash!

Chelmsford Plumber, POWER FLUSHING why how and what good does it do?

POWER FLUSHING - why how and what good does it do?

All enclosed water systems such as central heating system will become dirty and eventually can cause blocking. This will stop the efficiency of your heating system.

If you heating system is not running to it's best possible effectiveness then it is costing you extra money and you are not getting full benefits from it.

Power flushing is a method that forces chemical cleaning agents round your heating network, helping to clean and allow free flowing of the water.

Power flushing should be considered if you have problems with your heating system for example.


  • Does your heating system take an age to heat up

  • Is there unusual noises coming from the pipe work or boiler

  • Radiators often need to be bleed as they are not heating up properly.



If you unsure if your system needs a power flush or if it would be a waste of money contact your local plumber and they will advise if it is necessary.

Power flushing is a device that plugs into your heating system and plumbs water and chemicals. If is a very effective method to clear your heating system and a cheap way to keep
your heating system in good condition.

If you pipes are blocked or have limited flow then the boiler will have to work extra hard in order to push water through you blockages, which it turn will wear out your boiler much faster than that it should.

As a guide you will be looking at £35 to £40 per radiator for a whole system flush.

Boiler Servicing 5 Reasons

When you speak to most people about boiler servicing, the answer you will receive is I haven't had mine done in years!

This is an idea that you can save some money in these hard times by not spending out on having an extra cost added to your already tight budget. When in the long run or even short term you could be costing yourself a whole lot more extra money. To have a new boiler installation you could be talking up to £2500 depending on size and style.

These 5 reasons are why you should have your boiler serviced once a year

1. Most importantly to check that there are no gas leaks or any harmful Co2 leaks.
2. Economy - save your self money on Gas bills. Id your boiler is not running correctly it will pump too much gas into heating your water and there for you are receiving larger gas bills.
3. Seals check all seals and joints are OK and not in need of changing.
4. Pump make sure that the pump is working to its best level and not overworking.
5. piece of mind. It sounds silly but all summer long(hopefully) you will not turn on your heating system and when it comes to winter the last thing that you need to find out on the first frost of the year is that you have no heating!

Boiler servicing does not have to be expensive if you use the right company an average of £50.00 to about £70.00

Dadens plumbing and heating as of March 2012 is offering a boiler service for just £50.00 with all the marketing leading equipment and honest reassuring advice.

So don't leave it too late to find out your boiler needed servicing for your health's sake and also your financial well being. Its the old saying please excuse me for saying it "A stitch in time saves nine"
