Boiler Installation in Rainham
Rainham lies on the eastern edge of Medway, where the urban sprawl gives way to the marshes and farmland along the Lower Rainham Road.
Why Choose Us for Boiler Installation in Rainham
We are based in Medway and cover Rainham regularly
Our engineers are familiar with the typical properties in the area, from the bungalows around Berengrave Lane where a compact combi boiler in the kitchen is the standard setup, to the larger detached homes along Moor Street where a system boiler with a stored hot water cylinder is often a better choice.
We carry out a free home survey before every installation
This is not a sales visit. It is a proper assessment of your property, your current heating system, and your requirements. We measure up, check the gas supply, and recommend the most suitable boiler type and output for your home.

Boiler Installation for Rainham Properties
1960s-70s estate housing (Rainham Mark, Wigmore). These three-bedroom semis and terraces are among the most common properties in Rainham. Many still have original conventional boilers or early combi models that are now 15 to 20 years old. A modern 28 to 32kW combi boiler is the natural replacement, delivering instant hot water and eliminating the need for a hot water cylinder and loft tank.
Bungalows (Berengrave Lane area, off Station Road)
Rainham has a good number of bungalows, many occupied by older residents who value reliability and simplicity. A compact, quiet combi boiler with straightforward controls is ideal. We can also fit smart thermostats that are easy to use and allow family members to adjust the heating remotely if needed.
Larger detached homes (Moor Street, Lower Rainham Road)
Homes with four or more bedrooms and multiple bathrooms often benefit from a system boiler. A system boiler works with a hot water cylinder, which stores a volume of hot water ready for immediate use. This avoids the flow-rate limitations of a combi when several taps or showers are running at once.
Period properties (Lower Rainham conservation area)
The conservation area around Lower Rainham includes some attractive older properties. These may have specific requirements for flue termination positions or external alterations. We assess these during the survey and advise on compliant solutions.
Pricing guidance
A combi boiler installation in Rainham typically costs between 1,800 and 3,200. System boiler installations range from 2,500 to 4,500. Finance options with interest-free terms are available on selected installations.
