What we actually see in Tonbridge
Tonbridge is a market town on the River Medway in west Kent, grown up around a crossing of the river below the Norman castle, and a good deal of the town either side of the river sits on the Medway floodplain. Flooding is part of the town's recent history: the Environment Agency lists serious floods in 1968, 2000 and 2013, and over Christmas 2013 the river came over the bank at Avebury Avenue and approximately 80 homes in the Barden Road and Danvers Road area were flooded. The town is protected by the Leigh Flood Storage Area upstream (completed 1982, used 75 times since 1981), a 320 metre defence behind Avebury Avenue built after 2013, and the enlarged Leigh and Hildenborough scheme the Agency opened on 30 September 2026. Housing is mixed: older property near the river and the High Street, with twentieth-century suburbs spreading north and south. No dated breakdown of the housing stock has been verified, so do not state proportions.
Tonbridge is supplied by South East Water, which states on its own water hardness page that most of the water it supplies in Southern England comes from underground chalk aquifers and is therefore hard, which can lead to limescale in kettles, boilers and hot water pipes. Hardness varies by supply zone, so anyone who wants their own figure can check their postcode on South East Water's hardness search.
Straight answers
How much does a new boiler cost?
Every home is different, so we won't pretend there's one price — the boiler, your hot water needs and the pipework all play a part. That's why we quote every installation individually, for free.
Here's our promise: you get a fixed written price before any work starts, and that's the price you pay — no mid-job extras. We don't publish a ballpark figure, because the honest answer depends on the boiler you choose, where it's going and the pipework behind it — a number plucked off a website only sets the wrong expectation. The survey and the quote are free, and there's no obligation.
