Why Choose Us

A Housing Association Contractor You Can Rely On

Kent Heating & Plumbing has a strong track record of working with social housing organisations. We are proud to count Housing 21 and St Mungo’s among our clients, which demonstrates our ability to meet the stringent standards required when working in occupied residential properties and with potentially vulnerable tenants.
We understand that compliance is non-negotiable in social housing. Every one of our engineers is DBS checked and health and safety trained. All gas works are carried out by Gas Safe Registered engineers, and we maintain full documentation for every visit — including CP12 certificates, risk assessments, and job completion reports — to support your compliance and audit requirements.
We work flexibly to fit around your tenants and your operational requirements, and we treat every property we visit — and every tenant we encounter — with the same respect and professionalism. Our communication with housing managers is clear and proactive, keeping you informed at every stage.

Need More Help?

Our team is ready to answer any questions.

Are your engineers DBS checked for working in occupied properties?
Yes. All our engineers hold current DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) certificates. This is mandatory for all team members who enter occupied residential properties, and we take our responsibility to tenants seriously.
Yes. We have the capacity and the systems to manage coordinated annual gas safety programmes across large housing portfolios. We track all certification expiry dates, schedule appointments, and produce detailed compliance reports so your team always has an up-to-date picture of your stock’s gas safety status.
We offer tiered response times based on the priority of the repair — typically 2 hours for emergencies, 24 hours for urgent works, and 5 working days for routine repairs. We are happy to align our SLAs with your own internal response standards as part of a contractual agreement.
