Central Heating, Boilers + Hot Water Systems
Heating and hot water are the backbone of a comfortable home. Lazard Plumbing installs and services central heating systems, replaces aging boilers, and diagnoses faults that leave you without hot water. We are Gas Safe registered, which means by law we are authorised to work on gas appliances in your home.
We work with all major boiler manufacturers including Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Baxi, and Glow-worm. Whether you need a new combi boiler installation, a conventional system replacement, or urgent boiler repair, we will provide a clear written quotation before any work begins. You will not be surprised by the final invoice.
Cold water systems, pressure issues, and hard water scale build-up in pipework are also within our scope. If you have noticed reduced flow, unusual noises from the heating system, or a boiler warning light, call us for a diagnosis before a minor fault becomes a major repair.
Hard Water + Essex Plumbing
Essex sits in one of the hardest water areas in the UK. Hard water causes limescale to build up inside boilers, hot water cylinders, and pipework, reducing efficiency and shortening the life of heating components. It is one of the most common causes of gradual performance loss in central heating systems across the county.
Lazard Plumbing understands how water conditions affect plumbing and heating over time in Essex towns like Billericay, Basildon and Havering. When carrying out boiler servicing or central heating work, we take hard water into account as standard.
We can advise on scale inhibitors and system treatments that extend the working life of your boiler and protect the investment you have made in your heating.

The quotation I think was very fair, they even agreed to fit a new shower we needed within the original price. It’s not exactly fun when your boiler packs up, but they made the replacement a painless process, cannot be faulted in any way.”
