FAQs

How much does a boiler service cost?

Our standard gas boiler service starts from £70, with LPG and oil boiler services starting from £85. These prices include a comprehensive inspection, efficiency testing, and safety checks. We also offer combined service and Gas Safety Certificate packages for landlords from £80, representing excellent value. Annual service plans are available with additional benefits for repeat customers.

How often should I get my boiler serviced?

We recommend annual servicing for all boilers, regardless of age or type. Regular annual maintenance is essential for maintaining efficiency, ensuring safety, and preserving manufacturer warranties. Many warranties are invalidated without proof of annual servicing by a qualified engineer. For older systems or boilers used heavily, bi-annual servicing might be beneficial. We can set up reminder systems to ensure you never miss a service.

What should I do if my boiler loses pressure?

If your boiler pressure drops below 1 bar, you may need to repressurise the system. Many modern boilers have filling loops that allow homeowners to safely add pressure. We're happy to guide you through this process over the phone. However, frequent pressure loss indicates an underlying issue such as a leak, faulty pressure relief valve, or bleeding radiators. If you need to repressurise more than twice in a month, we recommend booking a diagnostic visit to identify and resolve the root cause.

How much does it cost to repair a boiler?

Our diagnostic visit starts from £65, which includes the first hour of assessment. Following diagnosis, we provide a clear, fixed-price quote for the necessary repairs before proceeding. Minor repairs typically range from £90-£200 including parts and labour. More complex issues involving major components might cost between £200-£500. In cases where repairs would exceed 50% of a new installation cost, we'll always present replacement options for your consideration. We're committed to transparent pricing with no hidden costs.
