Our History
From Local Plumbing to Leading Renewable Experts
Piped Up Ltd began life in 2007 as a small, family-run business known as Piped Up Plumbing Services, founded by James, who worked independently to provide reliable plumbing solutions across Derbyshire.
Over the next decade, James built a strong reputation for quality workmanship and customer service. In 2016, he was joined by Ant, who brought with him a successful background in electrical systems and solar panel installations.
Combining their expertise allowed them to expand their services and establish what is now Piped Up Ltd – a trusted name in both traditional plumbing and modern renewable energy solutions.

Built on Family Values – Grown Through Expertise
Nearly ten years on, Piped Up Ltd has grown into a thriving business with a dedicated team of 10 directly employed professionals, supported by over 30 trusted contractors, all working across a wide range of specialist trades. Together, the team brings over 200 years of combined experience to every project.
From domestic boiler installations and air source heat pumps to commercial-scale solar and energy storage systems, we now offer a comprehensive suite of services designed to help homes and businesses operate more efficiently and sustainably.
Looking to the Future
Our commitment to innovation means we’re always looking ahead. As the UK moves towards its Net Zero 2050 target, Piped Up Ltd is preparing to play a key role in delivering greener energy solutions. Our future plans include:
- Larger commercial solar projects
- Expanded product offerings that align with the government’s carbon reduction initiatives
- Supporting our customers in making every home and business greener
We’re also committed to investing in our people, building on our team’s expertise and maintaining our reputation as a trusted, accredited, and customer-focused renewable energy specialist.

A Local Business with a National Vision
While our roots are firmly planted in Derbyshire, our vision is national. We continue to grow with the same values we started with – honesty, reliability, and excellence in everything we do.
We’re proud of how far we’ve come – and even more excited about where we’re going.
