Boiler Servicing

Boilers should be serviced annually. Regular servicing by a TM Hughes & Son engineer offers many benefits, including:

1. We offer lots of time slots throughout each day, six days a week, so you can book a Boiler service at a time and date that suits you.
2. Our Gas Safe Registered engineers are punctual, will arrive at the agreed time, and present their Gas Safe ID on arrival, so you know your Boiler is legally serviced by a professional.
3. We follow the correct procedures outlined by your Boiler manufacturer and service all the important working parts of the Boiler.
4. The service is undertaken in a quiet, clean and tidy manner with little disruption to your home life.
5. Following the service, your Boiler will run at optimal energy efficency, saving you money on your fuel bills. How much depends on your Boiler make, age, type and condition.
6. An annual service protects you from Boiler issues and breakdowns.
7. Vulnerable pipes prone to freezing are identified and insulated if required. Frozen pipes are a prime cause of Boiler breakdowns.
8. The service uncovers underlying faults, so you can plan repairs if needed.
9. Servicing verifies your Boiler is safe and does not pose a carbon monoxide risk.
10. An annual service includes a service record which ensures your Boiler breakdown insurance remains valid.

The Boiler Service Procedure

Here’s an example of the procedures we use for Servicing Boilers

• We inspect the boiler case externally for signs of corrosion. We then remove the case and inspect it internally before cleaning.
• All seals and pipework are checked to ensure they are tight and not leaking water.
• We check the pressure and adjust it if it’s too high or too low.
• We clean the boiler’s internal components so your boiler runs better and we can test it accurately.
• The gas burner is cleaned, and the pressure is checked and adjusted if necessary.
• We test the gas flow rate with a gas meter to ensure the correct amount of gas is burned.
• A testing device known as a flue gas analyser is placed inside the flue to check the rate of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxygen to establish efficiency and safety.
• The flue is checked to ensure it retains heat and is not damaged or leaking exhaust gasses.
• The ventilation is tested to ensure ten cubic meters of air are available for every cubic meter of gas burned.
• The safety and relief valves are tested to ensure they are in good working order and will prevent Boiler damage in the event of a fault.
• The Boiler and pipework are tested to ensure there’s no leaking gas present.
• The case is refitted, and the boiler is switched on.
• The engineer will check your radiators (which are bled if necessary) and hot water to verify the Boiler’s working correctly.
• We write and give you a service record.
• The engineer tidies up and leaves. 

Boiler Repairs

If your Boiler has broken down or it’s not working properly, please get in touch and speak to one of our engineers.

We always aim to attend Boiler Repairs within two hours. However, never ignore a fault, as it will likely develop into a more severe problem and could cause your Boiler significant damage. At worst, the fault could put you and your family in danger.

We have extensive experience repairing Boilers and, in most cases, complete repairs on the first visit.

Our prices are very reasonable, emergency Boiler repairs include no call-out charges.

If your Boiler won’t switch on at all or has stopped abruptly and won’t start again, it’s time for a qualified engineer to take a look.

Never attempt to repair a Boiler yourself. It’s a job for a qualified professional with Gas Safe Registration.

Call us also if your Boiler isn’t running properly. We may be able to offer a solution over the phone (for minor issues) otherwise, you can book a time and date for us to visit.

Typical Boiler Faults Include

• Low pressure – May need adjusting, or could be a leak or blockage present
• Dropping pressure – A leak or blockage is present if you have tried repressurising and the pressure keeps dropping.
• Leaking – Never ignore leaks. They will eventually damage your Boiler
• The pilot light keeps blowing out – A new thermocouple is required
• Whistling Noises – Probably a limescale blockage in the heat exchanger, an urgent issue that needs attention.
• Boiler won’t switch on – Could be several issues. Give us a call we will inspect your Boiler and provide a solution.

Whatever the issue with your Boiler, we will quickly identify the cause and carry out the repair. We carry common boiler parts for quick repairs. If we don’t have the parts, we can usually obtain them locally the same day.

We also offer Underfloor Heating and Air Conditioning services.
