Boiler repairs

Boiler Repairs You Can Book Today

A boiler that has stopped mid-winter is miserable. We diagnose the actual fault rather than guessing at parts, explain what we have found in plain English and get your heating and hot water working again.

What happens on a boiler repair visit

  • Full diagnostic check including gas pressure, electrics and sensors
  • Fault codes read and interpreted against manufacturer data
  • Clear explanation of the fault and the cost before work starts
  • Common spares carried on the van for same-visit repairs
  • Genuine manufacturer parts used wherever they are available
  • System pressure reset, bled and tested before we leave
  • Honest advice if replacement makes better financial sense

Signs your boiler needs a repair

  • No hot water, or heating that works while hot water does not
  • The boiler locks out and needs resetting more than occasionally
  • A fault code or flashing light on the display panel
  • Pressure dropping repeatedly and needing topping up
  • Banging, whistling or kettling noises when the boiler fires
  • Water pooling underneath the boiler or damp staining on the wall
  • The pilot light or flame keeps going out

Not sure what you are dealing with? Get in touch and we will talk it through honestly before anything is booked in.

Josh is brilliant. Very efficient and good prices. He was able to slot us in when we were really struggling for time as we had tenants moving in. Would not hesitate to call him again.

Boiler repair FAQs

Can you fix my boiler the same day?

Often, yes. We carry common spares such as pumps, diverter valves, thermistors and pressure sensors on the van, so many faults are sorted on the first visit. If a part has to be ordered we tell you the timescale before we leave.

What do the fault codes on my display mean?

Codes vary by manufacturer, but they usually point to low pressure, ignition failure, a blocked condensate pipe or a faulty sensor. Read the code out to us over the phone and we can normally tell you whether it is a quick fix or something bigger.

Is it worth repairing an older boiler?

If the boiler is under ten years old and the part is available, repairing is nearly always the sensible choice. Beyond twelve years, with repeat breakdowns, we will show you the numbers so you can decide between a repair and a replacement.

What should I do if I can smell gas?

Do not use switches or naked flames. Turn the gas off at the meter, open windows and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 straight away, then get in touch with us once the supply is safe.
