Another great review received from a happy customer.

This time last week we said good bye to this legend!

Neil has been with us here at Durhams for the last 4 years as our storeman and daily hero to the lads! We are all gutted to see him hand over his hoover and will miss him dearly.

We wish him the very best Retirement and know that he will be busy for the next year or so with DIY, Decorating, Gardening and the Golf Course!

Happy Retirement Neil x

⚠️ Still on oil heating? You might want to read this...

Heating oil prices in the UK are now at a 12 month high — up 30% year on year — and with ongoing global conflicts affecting supply routes, there's no sign of things settling down anytime soon. 😬

That's exactly why we're seeing more and more homeowners making the switch — just like this customer in Retford, who has just said goodbye to their oil boiler for good! 👋

We've just completed a full retrofit installation of a brand new Grant air source heat pump in their semi-detached home, and they couldn't be happier! 🙌

Here's why switching from oil to an air source heat pump just makes sense right now:

✅ No more unpredictable oil bills that change week to week
✅ Grant heat pumps are reliable, efficient & built for UK conditions
✅ Works brilliantly in retrofit semi-detached homes — not just new builds!
✅ Up to £7,500 off with the Government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme 💰

Oil prices are volatile and only heading one way. An air source heat pump gives you control back over your heating costs — for good. 💪

Thinking about making the switch? We're local, honest, and here to help. Give us a call — no pressure, just straightforward advice from your Retford heating experts. 👇

🔋 Solar panels are great. But add batteries? That's when it gets really exciting...

We've just completed a 10-panel Jinko Tiger Neo solar installation at a detached home here in Retford, paired with 3 x 5.1kWh SolaX Li-ion batteries and an 8kW SolaX hybrid inverter — and the numbers are seriously impressive. 🤩

Here's the bit that really blew us away:

⚡ Solar panels alone are brilliant — but by adding battery storage to this system, our customer will reduce their grid dependency by an extra 46% compared to having solar panels only!

📊 Based on an estimated annual electricity consumption of 4,000 kWh, that's almost half of their remaining grid usage wiped out — just by storing the energy they're already generating instead of sending it back to the grid unused.

Think about that for a second. Without batteries, a lot of the solar energy your panels generate during the day just gets exported back to the grid — often for very little in return. With batteries, you keep that energy and use it yourself in the evening, overnight, and on cloudy days. 🌙

The result?

✅ Less reliance on expensive grid electricity
✅ More of YOUR energy, used by YOU
✅ Lower bills day AND night
✅ Generate 3,422 kWh of clean energy annually
✅ Save 709 kg of CO2 every single year 🌍

🚨 ALREADY HAVE SOLAR PANELS? 🚨

You don't need a brand new system to benefit from battery storage! We can retrofit batteries onto your existing solar installation — meaning you could start keeping more of the energy you're already generating, from as soon as we complete the install. If your solar panels are currently sending excess energy back to the grid for next to nothing, adding batteries could be one of the best investments you make this year. Get in touch and we'll let you know exactly what's possible for your setup. 💪

⚡ NO SOLAR PANELS? NO PROBLEM! ⚡

Did you know you can have a battery storage system WITHOUT solar panels? A standalone battery charges up overnight using cheaper off-peak electricity tariffs — like Octopus Go or Economy 7 — and then powers your home during the expensive peak hours of the day. It's a seriously smart way to slash your electricity bills without needing a single panel on your roof! 🏡 And when you're ready to add solar in the future, your battery is already there waiting. 👌

Drop us a message or give us a call for a free, no-obligation quote — we'll show you exactly what a system could do for your home. 👇
