A hand-coded website for your heating engineers business — built to rank from day one
I build hand-coded Next.js websites for heating engineers. Pure code — no WordPress, no page builder, no marketplace theme. Built for the conversion path your heating engineers customers actually use (click-to-call conversion) and for the search terms they actually type into Google.
The site ships with the same level of technical SEO work that this very site has: semantic HTML, schema.org markup on every page type, internal linking architecture, Core Web Vitals in the green, mobile-first. Schema-wise, the build includes the appropriate OFTEC, Gas Safe, and manufacturer dealer-locators registration display on the homepage and every service page that mentions qualified work.
Pair the build with the local SEO retainer and the site launches into work that compounds month over month.
Why heating engineers specifically
What a hand-coded site does for your trade
Heating engineers get a mix of emergency calls (boiler breakdown in winter) and planned work (boiler replacement, system upgrade, smart thermostat install). The site needs both conversion paths designed in.
Boiler brand dealer-locator pages rank well for branded searches like "Worcester Bosch installer [city]" AND earn backlinks from manufacturer sites. One service page per brand you install.
OFTEC registration display is mandatory for oil-heating specialists. Schema markup on the registration card is non-negotiable for this vertical.
Annual service reminder is a unique lever. The customer needs an annual boiler service to maintain warranty. Capture them once, retain for life. The site needs a "book annual service" CTA above the fold on every page.
Energy-efficiency credentials (MCS for heat pumps, Gas Safe for boilers) appear as schema markup. Customers filter on these before clicking through.
Service variants
The heating engineers services this build ranks for
Each service variant gets a dedicated service page on the build. Schema markup on every one. Internal linking between related variants. The result: a single build ranks for dozens of long-tail queries, not just the head term.

Heating engineers boiler installation
Heating engineers boiler repair

Heating engineers smart thermostat

Trust and certification
OFTEC, Gas Safe, and manufacturer dealer-locators registration, displayed correctly
OFTEC, Gas Safe, and manufacturer dealer-locators registration display is the single highest-trust signal on a heating engineers website. Schema markup on the registration card means Google can surface it as a knowledge-panel attribute and heating engineers without registration don't compete on the same SERP feature.
By city
Heating engineers web design by city
The heating engineers × city cluster: each city page applies the build standard to the local London market specifically. Top 8 cities shown below; all 22 are reachable via the locations index.
What happens after launch
The build is the foundation. Ongoing work is what compounds for heating engineers.
A hand-coded heating engineers site is the same kind of asset as a good reputation — it doesn't run itself. Six ongoing-care services keep it fast, indexed, and ranking. Most heating engineers clients adopt them in this order.

Frequently asked questions
How do [city] heating engineers rank for heat pump install searches?
Heat pump installs are a separate search market from gas boiler work in [city]. The customers are doing longer research (3-6 months), often have grant funding questions (BUS scheme), and want MCS-accredited installers specifically. Ranking signals: MCS registration prominent on GBP and website, photos of recent [city] heat pump installs, citations on the MCS competent person register, content explaining the BUS grant and the install process.
What GBP categories should a [city] heating engineer use?
Primary: 'Heating contractor'. Then secondary: Boiler installation service, HVAC contractor (for heat pumps), Plumber (if you do plumbing too), Radiator repair service. Pick 3-5 max. For [city] specifically, if you do heat pumps, list them explicitly - the MCS-registered search filter is a real Google filter.
Should [city] heating engineers run Google Ads?
For high-intent searches (boiler replacement [city], heat pump installer [city]), yes - the customer is actively shopping and the install value justifies the £20-£50 cost per click. We usually run Google Ads selectively on those, with the landing pages targeting specific service types and the ad copy emphasising trust signals (Gas Safe / MCS registration, recent installs, customer reviews).
How much does a hand-coded website cost for a heating engineers business?
Same as anywhere in the UK: £1,500-£5,000 one-off, fixed quote. The exact figure depends on the number of pages and the complexity of the integrations. For heating engineers, the conversion path is click-to-call conversion — your build needs to optimise for that, which a hand-coded site does by default and a page builder rarely does well.
Do you build sites for heating engineers specifically?
Yes. The build process is the same regardless of trade, but the conversion-path engineering is tuned to how heating engineers customers actually search and book. The site schema includes the relevant OFTEC, Gas Safe, and manufacturer dealer-locators registration display where applicable. Heating engineers sites get service-area pages that match the search intent for your most-searched service variants: boiler service, boiler installation, boiler repair, system upgrade.
