The postcodes, the pipework, the property types. Foleshill runs north from the city along the Foleshill Road into Longford, with Bell Green and Holbrooks either side. It's ten to fifteen minutes from our CV2 base, straight up through Bell Green. This is one of Coventry's oldest residential belts. Long Victorian and Edwardian terraced rows dominate, many with rear extensions added over the kitchen and yard, and a high proportion of houses in multiple occupation and family rentals. Practically every property here has had heating retro-fitted at some point, often more than once — which is why we so often find abandoned pipe runs in ceiling voids, gas supply pipes undersized for a modern combi, and flues terminating too close to a neighbour's boundary. We survey before quoting so those surprises land at the estimate stage, not on install day.

Common needs in Foleshill & Longford - Combi installs in terraces where the gas supply pipe needs upgrading to 22mm first. - Hot water for HMOs — sizing a system that copes with several bathrooms at once. - Leak detection under solid ground floors without ripping up the whole kitchen. - Lead service pipe replacement back to the internal stop tap. - Full bathroom refits in narrow terrace bathrooms and box rooms.

Local property age, climate, water chemistry and infrastructure all influence what fails and how often. Here's what we see in Foleshill & Longford. ### Undersized gas supply Many Foleshill terraces still run 15mm gas from the meter — fine for an old back boiler, not for a 30kW combi. Fitting the boiler without upgrading the run gives you lockouts and poor performance. We do a working-pressure test and quote the upgrade honestly. ### Boundary-tight flue positions Terraced rear extensions leave very little room to terminate a flue at legal distances from openings and boundaries. We work out a compliant route at survey, including plume management kits where needed. ### Solid ground floors Chasing a leak under a screeded Victorian floor is destructive if you guess. Acoustic and thermal leak detection localises it to a small area first — far cheaper than lifting a whole kitchen. ### Legacy lead pipework Some pre-1965 properties in this belt still have lead on the incoming supply. Replacing the internal section back to the stop tap is a defined, quotable job we do regularly.
