Boiler repair services

Boiler repair and installation 

Boilers are essential for maintaining comfort in your home, providing warm water for showers, washing dishes, and laundry. However, like any appliance, they can wear out over time and may need repair or replacement. When your boiler starts to malfunction, it can be frustrating and inconvenient. Whether it's not heating water as it should, making strange noises, or leaking, it's important to address these issues promptly to avoid further damage.


We repair and maintain all types of boilers, whether they are gas, electric, oil or air source heat pump. We will also service your repaired boiler during our visit, undergoing rigorous tests to ensure the appliance works optimally.


Repairing your Boiler can often be a cost-effective solution, especially if the issue is minor, such as a faulty thermostat or a broken heating element. However, if your unit is old or has significant problems, replacing it might be the better option. A new boiler can improve energy efficiency and ensure a reliable supply of hot water. Our expert technicians can assess your situation and help you decide whether a repair or replacement is the best course of action for your home.

Top 5 reasons your boiler might need replacing:


-   1. Age of the boiler

 The average boiler lasts eight to twelve years. It might be time for a            replacement if your unit is getting close to or has reached this age. Older boilers lose efficiency and are more likely to break down, which can result in more frequent repairs and greater energy costs.


- 2. Frequent repairs

It can be more economical to replace your boiler if you frequently need a plumber to fix it. Regular maintenance may be a sign that the unit is deteriorating and approaching the end of its usable life.


- 3. Rusty Water

If you see rust-coloured water pouring from you taps, then this is probably an indication of internal boiler corrosion, particularly when using hot water. This is an obvious sign that the boiler has to be changed before its starts to leak, as the unit is starting to deteriorate. 


- 4. Insufficient hot water

A failing heating element or sediment accumulation in the tank may be the cause of your boiler's insufficient hot water supply. Even these problems can occasionally be fixed, if the issue continues or the unit is old, it may be required to replace it in order to get your hot water supply back.


- 5. Leaks around the unit

Water collecting around the boiler's base is an indication of a leak, which may be a sign of a more serious internal issue. When a tank begins to leak, it usually needs to be replaced because repairs are frequently not possible for this kind of problem.
