Joby, the owner, attends every job himself. The person who comes to quote your work is the person who carries it out, so you always deal with the same engineer from start to finish rather than being passed to a subcontractor.
Our standard hours are Monday to Sunday, 08:00 to 18:00. We also offer 24 hour emergency callouts, so if you have a genuine heating emergency outside those hours, call us and we will help where we can.

We accept bank transfer, card payments and cash. Payment is normally taken on completion of the work, and for larger installations we are happy to talk through staged payments to help you plan.
It depends on the system being installed. A straightforward boiler swap can often be done in a day, while a full system change or upgrade can take up to a week. We will always give you a clear timeline as part of your quote so you can plan around the work.
New boiler installations with Howe Heating typically range from £2,500 to £4,000 supplied and fitted. The exact price depends on the boiler you choose, the size and layout of your heating system, and any extra work needed. We give you a clear, fixed quote after surveying your home.
Yes. Removing and disposing of your old boiler is included as part of the installation. We disconnect the old unit, take it away, and dispose of it responsibly, so you do not need to arrange anything separately.
We install all the major boiler brands, including Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Baxi, Ideal and Glowworm. We will talk you through the best option for your home, your budget, and the warranty you want before you commit.
Yes. New boilers come with a manufacturer-backed warranty, typically covering parts and labour for several years depending on the brand and model. We explain the warranty terms before we start and register it on your behalf once the boiler is installed.
Because a tidy, well planned installation is a sign of a job done properly. Clean copper pipework, a magnetic system filter fitted as standard, and a properly commissioned boiler all help your heating run reliably for years. You can see the standard we work to in our project gallery.

Joby installed our new boiler in Felixstowe and we could not be happier. He turned up exactly when he said he would, kept everything spotless, and the pipework is so neat. He talked us through how it all works before he left. Highly recommend.

Had our old boiler swapped for a new Baxi by Howe Heating. Clean, tidy work and a fair price, and Joby explained everything in plain English without any pressure. Really pleased with the job and the warmth this winter.

Our heating packed in and Joby came out quickly to sort it. Professional, friendly and honest about what needed doing. It is reassuring to have a Gas Safe engineer in Woodbridge you can actually rely on. Thank you.

Excellent work from start to finish. Joby quoted the job himself and then carried it out himself, which makes such a difference. The standard of the install in Kesgrave was first class. Would not use anyone else now.
