The company was founded in 1982, focussing on on the maintenance and repair ofheating appliances, at that time quite a niche market since central heating technologywas advancing rather quickly. The business started to flourish to such an extent that three members of the Lloyd familywere involved, so as well as maintenance were able to offer installation services as well, covering all aspects of plumbing and heating work, both gas and oil-fired, and gainingfactory approval from many manufacturers.
