About The MPH Group

Family-run bathroom, kitchen and heating specialists

Ewan McLean, the founder and Managing Director of MPH Group, has a rich history in the trades industry. He honed his skills as a plumber and gas engineer at Stiells, serving his apprenticeship in Scotland and working with high-profile clients such as banks, schools, and water treatment plants.

He later worked in London, including on Fleet Street for Goldman Sachs. With a dream of starting his own company, Ewan opened McLean Plumbing and Heating and took his younger brother Paul on as an apprentice. This marked the beginning of a thriving, family-run all-trades company.

McLean Plumbing and Heating started small, but quickly gained traction as a top installer for B&Q, eventually expanding to kitchens and taking on more work.

During this time, MPH became the largest installer in Scotland, with 30 to 40 bathroom and kitchen installations per week and a strong relationship with William Wilson, doing full house refits and upgrading full heating systems. However, the 2008 financial crisis put a strain on the industry and MPH shifted gears to work with Entu, installing boilers. With his vast experience, Ewan was tasked with helping Entu develop their boiler department, eventually growing the business to install 1800 boilers a year across Scotland.

In 2017, Entu went bankrupt, but Ewan saw this as an opportunity to take the MPH brand to new heights. He opened a new office in Kirkcaldy and acquired a consumer credit licence, allowing MPH to offer financing options to customers.

Ewan’s family and friends joined him in building up the office team, honing the sales side of the business and generating leads. At MPH, Ewan’s mission is to provide a comprehensive solution to customers, ensuring a seamless and positive experience from sale through to Install to after-sales support.

The heart of MPH lies in its family roots. Ewan works alongside family members, long-standing colleagues and skilled tradespeople across our bathroom, kitchen, plumbing and heating teams.

Ryan manages our showroom and design work, Laura coordinates kitchen and bathroom installations, and Michael leads service operations. Together with our office and installation teams, they help customers through each stage of their project.

With multiple generations of the McLean family and their close friends involved in the business, MPH is truly a family affair.

MPH invests in home-grown talent, with experienced tradespeople sharing their knowledge with the next generation. Connor and Leon now work as plumbing and heating engineers, while Haig works as a kitchen fitter.

That combination of developing talent and long-standing experience helps our family-run team deliver careful workmanship and support our customers.
