Boiler & heating services in Durham
Durham's cathedral-city heart sits on a medieval peninsula of listed stone buildings and conservation areas, ringed by Victorian terraces, post-war estates and off-grid villages across County Durham. Whether it's a listed property around the Peninsula needing careful boiler work, a solid-stone Victorian terrace, or a rural home heated by oil or LPG, Zebra brings Gas Safe and OFTEC OIL expertise to keep Durham's housing warm through cold North East winters.

Local knowledge
Working on Durham's properties
- Listed and conservation-area properties around the city need boiler replacements that respect period character — we plan installations on the Peninsula and Gilesgate to avoid flues and pipework that clash with historic fabric.
- County Durham's rural villages (Stanhope, Wolsingham, Eastgate and beyond) are largely off the gas grid, so oil and LPG boiler installs and servicing are essential — all covered by our OFTEC OIL registration.
- Victorian stone terraces and solid-walled homes from Nevilles Cross to Framwellgate Moor often need a survey to confirm which condensing boiler suits the existing pipework and flue routes.
- Student HMO landlords around Claypath, Crossgate and North Terrace rely on dependable central heating for tenant safety — we service portfolios and handle emergency repairs to minimise void periods.
