Underfloor heating Borehamwood

Imagine walking across your floor on a chilly winter morning and feeling warmth radiating beneath your feet instead of that shocking cold sensation. Sounds dreamy, right? That’s exactly what underfloor heating can do for your home. This modern heating technology is not just a luxury—it’s a smart, efficient way to keep your living spaces comfortable and your energy bills in check.

Underfloor heating is a sophisticated heating system that distributes warmth evenly across your floor, creating a consistent and comfortable temperature throughout your space. Unlike traditional radiators that create hot and cold spots, this system provides uniform heat from the ground up.

There are two primary types of underfloor heating systems:

  1. Water-Based (Hydronic) Systems
    • Uses a network of pipes filled with warm water
    • Typically installed during new construction or major renovations
    • Highly energy-efficient and can be connected to various heat sources
  2. Electric Systems
    • Uses electrical heating mats or cables installed beneath the floor
    • Easier to retrofit in existing homes
    • Ideal for smaller spaces like bathrooms or kitchens

Forget about cold floors and uneven heating. Underfloor heating provides a gentle, consistent warmth that envelops your entire room from the ground up.

Water Softener Installation

Hard water causes more than just annoyance. From limescale buildup in your appliances to dry skin and dull hair, hard water impacts your daily life significantly. If you’re in North London and tired of dealing with the problems hard water causes, this guide to water softener installation will help you.

Why Should You Install a Water Softener?

Hard water contains minerals like calcium and magnesium. These minerals cause:

  • Limescale buildup in pipes and appliances
  • Reduced efficiency of boilers and heaters
  • Dry skin and hair
  • Faded clothing
  • Increased soap and detergent usage

Installing a water softener helps eliminate these problems by removing hardness minerals from your home’s water supply.

I would like to express my thanks and appreciation to Troy Augustin, the plumber who attended our home on 3 September to fix a toilet problem. From the outset, Troy provided excellent customer service. He kindly called ahead to let me know he was on his way, which was extremely helpful and much appreciated. Throughout the visit, Troy was professional, courteous and clearly took great pride in his work. He kept me informed every step of the way, explaining what he was doing and ensuring I understood the progress being made. His attention to detail, dedication and commitment to doing the job properly were evident throughout. Troy was also very friendly and approachable, making what could have been a stressful situation much easier. It was clear that he genuinely cares about both his work and his customers. My husband and I are very grateful for the excellent service Troy provided, and we wanted to ensure his outstanding work and professionalism were recognised. Please pass on our thanks and appreciation to him.

I had Janos Wimmer do an annual boiler service for me this morning and he did a fantastic job. My heating was actually broken, and I was expecting to possibly have to rebook my service check for another day, as well as arranging to fix my heating beforehand too. He was brilliant and actually managed to fix my heating as well as carry out his checks! He was a lovely gentleman, very polite and cracked on with the work he needed to do. Very grateful he was able to fix my heating, especially as I was his first job of the day and he ended up staying a bit longer than estimated! Absolutely no complaints from my end, wonderful service. Thank you!

Janos came ahead of time, being more punctual than ever and provided a great service. He showed me the different parts of the boiler that hadn't been cleaned on previous visits and the part that had a slight leak that required attention. He was very respectful, wearing shoe covers without the need to ask that shows his respect and appreciation of being clean in the customers house.

I called DC group to discuss relocation and installation of a new boiler after being let down several times by a well-known company. I was given a date and time that was suitable for me, on the day Divyesh and two other guys arrived promptly. They took their time to complete all the work (which I know was complicated and time consuming) and made sure we were satisfied with the completed work. They are reliable, honest and operate with integrity. What I loved was Divyesh, Troy and Varul were all so polite, explained everything they were doing and took on board anything we said. Divyesh always took the time to answer any questions I had and explain the new boiler; they provided me with all the options available- from repair to replacement. As a woman, it can be difficult to find someone you can trust, so I'm very pleased to have had such an excellent service. I would happily recommend them to anyone who is looking for a great company that arrive on time and work diligently to get the job completed.

I cannot recommend The DC Group UK highly enough. I dealt with Divyesh Chotai, who provided truly exceptional care throughout the entire process. He didn’t just treat me like another job; he took his time to actually solve the problem and offered extra support and advice that I wouldn't have found elsewhere. What stood out most was his willingness to help with a temporary fix to keep things running while we navigated the insurance side of things. It’s rare to find that level of professional mentality and a genuine desire to help the customer. If you want an expert who actually cares, look no further

Like others have stated, you rarely come across professionals who actually want to help and know what they are looking for - that’s the key We had an intermittent leak from our boiler and the gentleman from the DC group spotted it immediately. I can’t rate them highly enough for their service, politeness and professionalism

Horrible experience with this company. They were tasked to do my annual CP12 certificate where they wrongly tagged the CO alarm as fail and marked the expiry date of the alarm as the date of their visit (26/11/2025). As soon as I saw it, I double checked and 1. the alarm is working perfectly fine and 2. Expiry date on it is 01/2035. I contacted them and asked to either evidence what they put on the certificate or correct it. I sent a chaser a week later- they ignored both emails. You've been warned - once something goes wrong you are on your own, this company takes no accountability or responsibility for their work.

I cannot speak highly enough about this company My boiler wasn’t working thus had no heating or hot water for 2 days I initially contacted British Gas who came & told me I need a new boiler I then contacted The DC group who came today who not only fixed the problem they went above & beyond to do so . Their initial visit was 2pm they left saying they would attempt to acquire the part needed that afternoon if possible return the same day as I said I was working the following day & they did indeed returning after the normal working day at 18.30 & fixed my boiler. They are professional friendly & would most definitely recommend anyone reading this to use this company I just wish I had found them years ago

Took me a week to get an appointment, engineer came completed repair work, waterflo and boiler service but did not give me a Service Maintenance record or job report until requested, not madatory I know but it is best practice to give/send one following appointment. 1 month later, same issues and boiler not working, took me 3 days of phone calls to secure follow up appointment, engineer was able to fit me in the week after but I was told there would need to be further cleaning and costs (I have since been made aware that it is usual to do a FULL cleaning as part of basic boiler servicing). I had to chase for a follow up appointment (again another week to wait - and still no heating). In my opinion costs should be clearly outlined if not before then upon diagnosis and a more transparent process should be offered. Some companies charge separately for anything beyond a basic service as these guys do so before booking them make sure you know exactly what your money is paying for. I appreciate it’s a busy time of year but when your family and house is cold you start to lose patience. Engineer and office manager are nice people so I am giving a fair review but my thoughts are that they are overworked and understaffed for probably their busiest time of year. I'll take my business elsewhere.

I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with The DC Group after they fixed my boiler today. With so many rogue boiler repair companies out there, The DC Group truly stands out as a rare diamond in the industry. From the moment I called, their professionalism was clear. The engineer arrived on time, was polite, and took the time to thoroughly investigate the issue with my boiler. What really impressed me was how patiently he explained what was actually wrong, showing me the parts and laying out the situation in terms I could understand—no confusing jargon or pressure to pay for unnecessary repairs. He also discussed different cost-effective solutions with me, making sure I knew my options and what would work best for my budget. I never felt rushed or like I was being upsold and after about 15 minutes my boiler was up and running. It’s such a relief to find a company that cares about doing things right and genuinely wants to help their customers. I am so grateful for their honesty, expertise, and care. I highly recommend The DC Group to anyone looking for a reliable, professional boiler repair company. Thank you again!
Last called DC Group a year ago when I suddenly found myself without hot water. They came immediately. This time I couldn't bleed radiators but also needed boiler service. They did service and found i was leaking CO. Fixed everything, worked quickly and well Very satisfied with this reliable company

I had a boiler relocation and upgrade job carried out by DC. They were great - they sent out their top engineer to look at the job beforehand so we got all the details right from the start. The job was supposed to take 2 days - there were some complications but the team stayed on late to get it done within the timeframe that they said. All work has been done to a high standard and I'm really happy with the results.

Divyesh also took the time to explain and show what they were doing as well as how best to look after the system thereafter. Before leaving, Divyesh made sure that all was in order before he left as well as an assurance of aftercare if needed. I would highly recommend.
