Heating for Hylands House

  • October 27, 2026

Clairglow has begun a major heating upgrade at Hylands House, the Grade II listed neo-classical villa near Chelmsford, Essex. The project includes replacing the building’s boilers and fully upgrading its plant room.

Working in a building of this historic importance brings its own challenges, and this project is more complex than most. Hylands House will stay open to the public throughout the works, so careful planning, strict site management and close coordination with the venue have been essential. They allow the work to go ahead safely with as little disruption as possible to visitors and staff.

The plant room sits in the basement, which made access especially difficult. The new Hoval boilers were lifted into the basement stairwell using a HIAB crane, and the old boilers were lifted out the same way. Scaffolding has also gone up at the front of the building to give safe access to the roof for the new flues.

The works will run over 12 weeks. They are being carried out by Clairglow’s own directly employed heating engineers, supported by specialist sub-contractors. Clairglow is acting as Principal Contractor, overseeing all activity on site and keeping health, safety and quality standards high throughout.

The project is due to finish before Christmas, so Hylands House can reopen in the new year with a modern, efficient heating system that will serve this historic building for many years to come.
