Local to Broad Town

Why we're the sensible local choice for Broad Town

Broad Town is home. The BTD workshop and vans are based on Pye Lane, so if your boiler goes down or a pipe lets go, you're not waiting on someone driving in from another county, you're speaking to the engineer who lives around the corner. That's the single biggest reason locals default to us for oil, gas and plumbing work.

Back to home

Distance from our base: 0 miles, our workshop is on Pye Lane, SN4 7RR. Base address: Pye Lane, Broad Town, Swindon, SN4 7RR.
The character of Broad Town: Broad Town sits along the foot of the Marlborough Downs, strung out between the A420 and the Ridgeway. It's a mix of older brick and stone cottages, farm conversions along Chapel Lane and Broadtown Lane, and pockets of newer detached housing. Mains gas doesn't reach much of the village, so the majority of properties here run on oil-fired heating, which is exactly the fuel type we specialise in.
Property types we work on here: Most of what we work on locally is period cottages with steel or copper microbore that's been extended over the years, plus 1970s–1990s family homes running Worcester Danesmoor, Grant Vortex or Firebird oil boilers with external tanks. We also cover the newer plots off Thornhill and towards Cotmarsh, which tend to have modern condensing units and pressurised systems.
Postcodes covered: SN4 and surrounding lanes.

Problems we see in Broad Town

What actually goes wrong around here

Local property, local climate, local infrastructure, every area has its own pattern of faults. Here's what we deal with regularly in Broad Town.

Oil boiler lockouts after storms

When the wind picks up off the Downs, oil boilers on this side of the village are prone to flue-related lockouts and nozzle sooting. A proper service, not a wipe-down, usually resolves it for the season.

Ageing external oil tanks

Plenty of Broad Town tanks are well past their prime, with bunding issues, sludge at the base or fuel-line corrosion. We regularly replace and re-site tanks to current OFTEC standards.

Hard water scale

Chalk downland water is hard here. We fit water softeners and scale-reducers, and power flush systems that have silted up with limescale and magnetite.

Older microbore heating

Cottages extended in the '80s often have narrow-bore pipework that struggles once radiators are added. We diagnose flow issues honestly rather than defaulting to a full replumb.
