LPG & Oil Heating in Croydon
LPG and oil heating covers the installation, servicing and repair of heating systems for properties without a mains gas connection, using either bottled or tanked LPG or an oil-fired boiler, carried out by engineers registered for the relevant fuel type.
In Croydon, that covers Purley, Coulsdon, South Croydon, Addiscombe, Selsdon, Shirley, Thornton Heath, Sanderstead, Waddon. Croydon combines a dense town centre and tower-block skyline with substantial suburban housing across Purley, Coulsdon, Addiscombe and Shirley, plus the Victorian and Edwardian terraces closer to South Croydon and Thornton Heath. Its position on the A23/M23 corridor puts it within easy reach of our Surrey and Sussex teams, and it borders Sutton, Bromley and Reigate & Banstead.

Property styles in Croydon
Housing ranges from Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the town centre and South Croydon, through interwar semis across Addiscombe, Shirley and Thornton Heath, to larger detached houses in Purley, Coulsdon and Sanderstead. Loft conversions and rear extensions are common on the terraced and semi-detached stock, while the larger plots further south suit more substantial extension and outbuilding projects.
Planning considerations
Croydon Council (London Borough of Croydon) is the local planning authority. Several residential areas, including parts of South Croydon, Coulsdon and Addiscombe, are conservation areas, and parts of the borough's southern edge fall within the Metropolitan Green Belt, which affects extensions and new structures. As with all London boroughs, permitted development rights can also be more restricted on flats and some converted properties.

Is LPG work covered by Gas Safe registration?
Yes, but under a separate LPG category on the Gas Safe Register — an engineer registered for mains natural gas isn't automatically qualified for LPG. We check and confirm registration for the fuel type involved.
Who is qualified to work on an oil-fired boiler?
OFTEC-registered engineers, rather than Gas Safe, which covers mains and LPG gas only. It's worth checking an engineer's OFTEC registration before any oil heating work goes ahead.
