Dorchester is the residential and commercial core of Thames Centre, a few kilometres east of London, and an easy run for me.
Dorchester is the heart of Thames Centre, just east of the city, with a population of a little under four thousand at the last census I can point at. It is a village that people commute into London from, which shapes what I see when I get there.
The housing is mixed: village houses of a good age, newer subdivision streets, and country properties on the edges. The country properties are the ones where the fuel question comes up, the same as it does out towards Komoka and Ilderton.
Extensions, converted spaces, a system carrying more house than it was sized for. Usually fixable, and usually not by making the furnace bigger.
Same story as the newer parts of London: everything went in at once, so everything wants attention at roughly the same time. Worth staging rather than doing at once.
If you are on propane or oil rather than gas, the heat pump conversation is a genuinely different one and worth having properly.
“Mozee thoroughly inspected for gas leaks upon completion. Mozee says, no bubble, no trouble.”

Yes. It is a short run east and I am out that way regularly.
Yes, and that is exactly the situation where it is worth talking about a heat pump before you replace anything else.
That is most of what I do. I will tell you honestly when something is worth keeping.
Installation, repairs and service on all of it, tested before I leave.
London and the surrounding area. Just outside it? Ring anyway and I will tell you straight whether I can get to you.
