Colco Plumbing and Heating

Colco Plumbing and Heating: plumbing and heating in Perthshire and throughout Scotland

Colco Plumbing and Heating is a plumbing and heating company based in Perth, in the Friarton area, on the banks of the River Tay. The company presents itself as a locally run business with more than twenty years of activity, during which it has built long-standing working relationships and extensive knowledge of the area. Although its base is in Perth, it serves customers throughout Scotland.

Its activity covers plumbing and heating in the broadest sense: installations, maintenance, repairs, renovations and new builds. It works in both the domestic and non-domestic sectors, and serves private homeowners, landlords and local and national organisations.

Plumbing, heating and renewables services

The company states that it covers all plumbing and heating services, with experience in renewables, gas, LPG, oil and legionella. In the renewables area, it carries out air source heat pump and solar thermal installations.

The company holds MCS accreditation, which allows it to support the customer throughout the entire process: from the initial survey and heat loss calculations to selecting equipment of the right capacity, installation and signing the necessary documentation so that the customer can apply for loans or grants. Two of its engineers have also completed the Heat Geek Mastery course, a more extensive training programme than the standard MCS accreditation, focused on heating system design.

Bathrooms, kitchens and trade coordination

Colco carries out complete bathroom and kitchen installations. The company takes on the coordination of all necessary trades — plumber, joiner, electrician, painter-decorator and tiler — so it manages the project from initial planning through to completion of the work, and remains available to answer questions once the work is finished.

It also offers support to other professionals: it can work alongside the tradespeople the customer has chosen for their home project, including electricians, joiners, painters and builders.

Boilers: installation, maintenance and repair

The company is approved as a Vaillant and Worcester Bosch boiler installer. It installs and services new boilers and carries out repairs, and its team handles enquiries before, during and after the work.

Accreditations and professional registrations

The team is Gas Safe registered, OFTEC certified and MCS accredited. The company is also SNIPEF registered, through which it can certify and sign off drain testing for buildings of any size. It also has the backing of RECC and holds qualifications for non-domestic work.

Client profile and way of working

Colco works with private homeowners and landlords on all types of domestic work, and also with local and national organisations that require non-domestic qualifications. The company describes its service as five-star at competitive prices, and offers free, no-obligation quotations. Its office in Friarton is open to anyone who wants to drop in to discuss a project or ask for advice.
