Heating and Plumbing Refurbishment for Care Homes

Heating and running water for care homes isn’t just a must-have but a central part of keeping homes up and down the country safe and comfortable for residents. Today, there are over 16,500 care homes in the UK, and most offer some form of residential care.

At Lacey Plumbing & Heating, we are the specialists in heating and plumbing refurbishment in UK care homes. Our friendly local plumbers and heating experts deliver the highest-quality service, ensuring minimal disruption and access to cutting-edge plumbing and heating systems.

 

Essential care home plumbing needs

Care homes have a duty of care to their residents and also have a moral obligation to provide the highest standard of living. Both residents and their families expect efficient, reliable plumbing and heating fixtures to be in place.

Here’s just some of what Lacey Plumbing & Heating can do for your care home:


  • Correct Pressure and Flow – Pressure and flow rate are two of the most important metrics we look at. This is accomplished through regular servicing and ensures that all rooms are getting the necessary heating and water supply.
  • Hot Water – Conventional boilers you find in your home might not be sufficient for care homes. You need a boiler and hot water storage options that meet the capacity of your care home, so that residents always have a constant supply of hot water. Learn more about our commercial boiler installation options.

  • Safety and Servicing – You are required by law to have an annual gas safety certificate and a boiler service. We don’t just provide this service to tick a box. We do so to extend your system's lifespan and maintain your warranty. This is what saves you money and prevents service interruption.

  • Showers, Baths, and Toilets – Leaky taps, leaking baths and faulty radiators are all common problems that impact the lives of your residents. Whether it’s upgrading a bathroom suite or installing a system that meets modern standards, we take care of all your care home’s bathroom and heating needs.

Over time, it’s natural for your heating and plumbing systems to degrade. Wear and tear is something you have to deal with, but by working with a professional plumber you can trust, you can reduce the number of repairs, lower your costs, and keep staff and residents happy

Why professional plumbing and heating are important in the care sector


Turning to a professional plumber and not trying to do it yourself is crucial not just for getting the best results, but also for complying with the array of UK regulations that aim to protect residents and their families.

Here’s why you need a plumbing and heating expert by your side:



  • It’s the Law – All care homes must register and comply with Care Quality Commission (CQC) requirements, including all boiler work being carried out by Gas Safe-registered engineers. You’re also obligated to take action to control the spread of Legionella bacteria.
  • Hygiene and Infection Control – Working with a professional ensures that water is safe for drinking and bathing, meeting the water standards put in place by the government and preventing risks to vulnerable residents.
  • Vulnerable Resident Safety – Unlike ordinary homes, care homes put in an array of safety mechanisms to protect vulnerable residents. These include TMV3-certified valves and Low-Surface-Temperature (LST) radiators to prevent burns, and reliable heating systems in winter to stave off issues such as colds and pneumonia.
  • 24/7 Reliability – When dealing with vulnerable people, you can’t afford heating or water failures. Working with us guarantees a rapid emergency response to minimise disruption and prevent the relocation of residents.
  • Save Money – Proactive maintenance is what saves you money and reduces the risk of large-scale emergency repairs that disrupt the lives of residents. We provide regular preventive maintenance to ensure you can put your faith in your heating and plumbing systems.

Cutting-edge plumbing and heating systems are designed to be as energy-efficient and as reliable as possible. But while we work with the leading providers, we also know that proactive maintenance is what puts a stop to those costly disasters.
