Built in North London. Built on experience. Built to do things properly.

Koncore Plumbing & Heating is more than a business to me. It is the result of over 10 years working in the plumbing and heating industry, learning the trade, working in thousands of homes and eventually deciding that I wanted to build a company of my own.

Hornsey is home. I was raised in Hornsey and have spent nearly all my life in North London. These are the streets and communities I grew up around, and today many of the people who call Koncore are homeowners, landlords and families from the same areas I have known for years. That makes the reputation behind the Koncore name personal to me.

Why I started Koncore

Before starting Koncore, I worked as an employed gas engineer for one of the UK’s largest heating companies. It was an important part of my career — I gained experience working on different boilers, heating systems and faults every day, while seeing first hand how a large professional heating operation works.

But over time, I wanted to build something of my own: a company where doing a good job wasn’t just about completing the next appointment, and where customers feel that the engineer in their home actually cares about solving their problem. My goal was simple — take the experience and professional standards I had developed over the years and combine them with the personal service and accountability of a genuinely local company.

Your home should be treated like my own

Inviting an engineer into your home requires trust, and I understand that. Some customers call us because their boiler has suddenly stopped working. Others have water leaking through a ceiling, no heating in the middle of winter, or an expensive repair they weren’t expecting. For someone working in the trade it can feel like another heating problem. For the customer, it can be incredibly stressful.

That means respecting the property, taking care while working, explaining what I find and leaving the area properly when the work is finished. I want customers to feel comfortable asking questions and to understand what is happening in their own home.

Honest advice comes first

If something can be repaired sensibly, I will explain the repair. If replacing something would make more financial sense, I will explain why. And if something doesn’t need replacing, I am not going to recommend unnecessary work simply to make the job bigger.

There can sometimes be more than one solution to a plumbing or heating problem. My job is to explain those options clearly so you can make an informed decision. No pressure, no unnecessary technical jargon — just straightforward professional advice about what I would consider doing if it were my own property.

More than 10 years on the tools

Experience changes the way you approach a problem. Older North London houses can be very different from modern apartments. Heating systems get altered over the years, pipework gets extended, and boilers get replaced while parts of the original system remain. Sometimes the obvious fault isn’t the real cause of the problem.

That is why proper diagnosis matters. I believe a heating engineer should understand why something has failed before simply replacing parts — an approach I carried from my years as an employed gas engineer into Koncore today.

Hornsey is where our story started

Being raised in Hornsey gives this business a connection to the area that cannot be manufactured. North London isn’t simply a location we selected for marketing — it is home.

Koncore now serves customers across Hornsey, Crouch End, Muswell Hill, Highgate, Wood Green, Turnpike Lane, Tottenham, Archway, Holloway and Highbury, as well as Hackney, Camden, Islington, Haringey, Finchley and Barnet. Every successful job and every recommendation helps us build our reputation within the same communities we work and live around.

What Koncore stands for

Technology will change. The business will grow. More engineers may eventually wear the Koncore uniform. But those principles should remain exactly the same.

A local company with bigger ambitions

My ambition is to build Koncore into one of North London’s most trusted plumbing and heating companies. Not simply the biggest — a company people remember because they were treated properly, that customers feel comfortable recommending to their parents, friends and neighbours, and where the standard remains high regardless of how much it grows.

More than 10 years in the trade brought me to this point. But in many ways, the Koncore story is only getting started.
