Shirebrook (Bolsover) · NG20
Plumbing & Heating in Shirebrook
Shirebrook is just over the Derbyshire border but carries an NG20 postcode, which is why most people here think of themselves as being in our patch — and they are. It is a colliery town in its bones: the Model Village was built for the pit, the estates followed it, and the housing has the consistency that comes from being put up in blocks to a single specification.

Every job planned around local access, parking and the property types we find here.
Boiler Installation in Shirebrook
Work in the Model Village is dominated by legacy appliance removals and flue routes that have to clear a shared frontage. The post-war estates further out are open-vented conversions, which are straightforward and which we do in volume. Being NG20, Shirebrook work is normally scheduled alongside Warsop.
Boiler Installation in ShirebrookBoiler Repair in Shirebrook
The Model Village housing is uniform enough that its appliances tend to fail the same way, so we usually know what we are attending before we arrive. Shirebrook breakdowns are scheduled alongside our Warsop work, which keeps response times shorter than the twenty-minute drive would suggest.
Boiler Repair in ShirebrookBoiler Servicing in Shirebrook
Annual servicing here covers combustion analysis, safety device testing, descaling where the water demands it and a filter clean. Because the Model Village housing is consistent, so are its service intervals and its common faults, which makes booking a round through the streets efficient for everyone.
Boiler Servicing in ShirebrookLeak Detection in Shirebrook
The Model Village was built as a single scheme, so its pipework runs in the same places from one terrace to the next and we usually know where to start looking. Most of what we attend here is a heating circuit failing under a solid floor on the later estates, or an old joint under a suspended floor in the original housing.
Leak Detection in ShirebrookLandlord Gas Safety Services in Shirebrook
A significant share of the Model Village and the post-war estates is privately rented, often with single landlords holding several properties in the same street. We issue CP12 certificates with the service alongside, arrange tenant access ourselves and group portfolio work into one visit.

Twenty minutes, and usually attended alongside our other NG20 work. In the Model Village terraces the stop tap arrangements are shared or awkwardly sited on a number of properties, which is worth knowing before you need to find one in a hurry.

Local to Shirebrook (Bolsover)
Shirebrook was built for its colliery and the housing still reads that way. The Model Village terraces date from the 1890s onwards and were put up as a single scheme, which means what we find in one property we tend to find in its neighbours — the same original supply routes, the same legacy appliance positions, the same extended gas runs. That consistency is genuinely useful: a survey here is quicker because the patterns repeat. The post-war estates further out are open-vented with a cylinder and loft tanks and convert cleanly to sealed systems. We are about twenty minutes away, and because Shirebrook shares NG20 with Warsop we usually schedule the two together.
Access and parking
The Model Village streets are narrow with on-street parking only and the terraces have shared frontages, so van positioning and material staging get planned before we arrive rather than sorted out on the day. Around the former colliery land and the distribution units the roads carry heavy goods traffic, which affects timing more than access.
Housing we work on here
- The Model Village terraces built for Shirebrook Colliery from the 1890s
- Early twentieth-century expansion around Station Road and Main Street
- Post-war council estates across the north and east of the town
- Later private development and infill towards Carter Lane

What customers near Shirebrook say
Real reviews from customers across Shirebrook and the wider Nottinghamshire area.
Customer rating 10/10
RPH Home Services did a great job. I can’t fault Dean and his team. We had a new boiler fitted. Highly recommended. Fitted the boiler on a Saturday as they were busy the following week.
Customer rating 10/10
If you are looking for anybody to carry out boiler installation, servicing or central heating work then look no further. RPH were competitive, punctual, professional, clean and tidy. Nothing was rushed and they went to great effort to not only complete our swap from a traditional to a combi boiler, but to do it in a way that made the swap look as good as possible too. Although we got several quotes, they left us feeling confident we made the right decision.
Customer rating 10/10
I was very impressed with David from the day he came to give me a quote. He checked the location of gas pipes to ascertain the complexity of the job — two previous companies had not even mentioned this. On fitting day David and two colleagues arrived at the time advised. They kept me informed of each task and left my property clean and tidy.
