Fast, No-Fuss Heating Fixes You Can Rely On
When your heating system goes down, your whole home feels it—especially in the colder months. I’m Ross, owner of ISM Plumbing & Heating, and for over 15 years, I’ve been helping homeowners across Alfreton, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Ripley, and surrounding areas get their warmth back with reliable, professional central heating repairs.
Just last month, we helped a family in Somercotes who had no heat upstairs and cold radiators downstairs. We traced the problem to a blocked pump and an airlock, flushed the system, and had it working again by that afternoon. No guesswork. No delays.
Whether it’s a cold radiator, strange banging noises, or a boiler that won’t fire up, we’ll get to the root of the issue—and fix it properly.
We provide full diagnostics and repairs for domestic central heating systems, including:
- Radiators not heating up or heating unevenly
- Cold spots or noisy pipework
- Boiler not heating radiators properly
- Airlocks and system blockages
- Loss of pressure in sealed systems
- Faulty pumps or motorised valves
- Leaking or corroded pipework
- Thermostat, programmer or control issues
- Power flush advice or sludge build-up resolution
Heating Systems We Work With
We’re experienced in diagnosing and repairing:
- Combi, system, and conventional boilers
- Sealed and open-vented heating systems
- Smart heating controls (Nest, Hive, Honeywell, etc.)
- Multi-zone systems and underfloor heating
- Timers, stats, zone valves, and circulation pumps
We aim to carry out most repairs in a single visit, and we’ll always explain your options clearly before any work begins.

"I picked ISM based on good reviews and was not disappointed. We needed heating system modifications doing in an upstairs flat but it was critical there were no leaks into the premises below. Ross did the work quickly and very professionally without any issues at all, at a very fair price. We highly recommend him. "
