FAQs

This depends on several factors including the age of your boiler, the nature of the fault, repair costs, and your boiler's efficiency. As a general guideline, if your boiler is over 10 years old and the repair would cost more than 30% of a new installation, replacement is often more economical long-term. We'll provide honest advice based on your specific circumstances without pushing for unnecessary replacements.
Yes, all our repairs come with a 12-month warranty on both parts and labour. If the same issue recurs within this period, we'll return and fix it at no additional cost. We also use manufacturer-approved parts that carry their own warranties, often extending beyond our labour guarantee.
Error codes are your boiler's way of communicating specific issues. First, make a note of the exact code displayed. Some simple codes may indicate minor issues like low pressure, which you can resolve yourself by following your boiler manual. However, most error codes require professional attention. Contact us with the code information, and we can often provide preliminary advice before our visit.
Yes, regular annual servicing is the most effective way to prevent unexpected breakdowns. During a service, we can identify and resolve potential issues before they cause failures. Additionally, maintaining proper system pressure, ensuring radiators are bled regularly, and keeping the area around your boiler clear and ventilated can all help prevent common problems.
