Boiler Servicing

Annual Boiler Servicing is essential to keep your Boiler in good working order while burning fuel efficiently and safely.

Boiler manufacturers insist their Boilers are serviced annually by a Gas Safe Registered engineer. Regular servicing is a warranty requirement.

Boilers that are serviced annually are far less likely to break down. Therefore, neglect is the prime cause of Boiler failure. 

Most Boilers fail during the winter months, when the boiler works hard every day.

Servicing greatly reduces the likelihood of a Boiler breakdown.

If you need a Boiler service in Wickford, we offer flexible appointments.

Here’s why you should stay on top of Boiler servicing:

The Boiler’s Cleaned

Servicing involves thoroughly cleaning the Boiler. Once clean, the Boiler doesn’t have to work as hard, reducing stress on its components.

The Boiler’s Correctly Set

During servicing, the engineer will check that the boiler is burning the correct amount of gas. If not, the thermocouple (gas regulator) is adjusted to the correct setting. The correct setting improves energy efficiency and reduces the chance of a fault that could prevent the Boiler from working.

Safety Devices Are Tested

During the service, we test and inspect all safety devices. The safety devices prevent damage to the Boiler if it stops suddenly. By ensuring all safety devices are in good working order, damage to your Boiler is unlikely in the event of a fault.

Other Boiler Servicing Benefits 

It’s not just about preventing Boiler breakdowns. The service offers other benefits, which include.

Safety From Carbon Monoxide

During the service, the boiler is inspected for signs of carbon monoxide. The flue is also tested to ensure it expels exhaust gases correctly. 

Boiler servicing gives you peace of mind that your Boiler’s not a carbon monoxide risk.

Better Energy Efficiency

A clean, correctly set boiler runs at optimal energy efficiency, so it costs less to run and helps keep your fuel bills down.

Warranty & Insurance Validation

Boiler servicing is accompanied by a service record, which ensures your Boiler warranty and home breakdown insurance remain valid (both will stipulate annual servicing is a requirement for validation)

We’ll send out a service reminder so your Boiler stays within the 12-month timeframe.

Boiler Repairs

Our emergency Boiler repairs in Wickford include fast response times, fair rates and no call-out charges (minimum 1 hour’s labour applies).

If your Boiler breaks down or isn’t running properly, give us a call, and we’ll send an engineer the same day to repair it.

Our Boiler Repair services include fair rates and no call-out charges (minimum 1 hour’s labour applies).

Our engineers are highly experienced in repairing Boilers. They get most back up and running after diagnosing the fault.

Sometimes all that’s needed is a tweak or an adjustment to get your Boiler back working again. Otherwise, a part may be required.

We carry common boiler parts to enable fast repairs. If we don’t have the available parts, we can usually get them from local suppliers the same day.

Give us a call if your Boiler won’t work or isn’t working properly. Never run your boiler if there’s an issue. It could turn into significant damage and repair costs.

Our engineer will offer advice over the phone. Sometimes, advice is enough to get your boiler working again. Otherwise, the engineer will arrange a time to visit.

Typical Boiler Faults Include

• The Boiler won’t switch on – Several issues could be the cause, and an inspection will establish the fault.
• The Boiler keeps switching off – Most likely a blockage, leak or low-pressure issue.
• The Boiler is making whistling noises – A limescale blockage in the heat exchanger. Your Boiler needs urgent attention.
• The Boiler is leaking – Various issues can cause leaking, don’t ignore it even if your Boiler still works.
• The pilot light continuously goes out – There’s an issue with the thermocouple. It may need adjusting or, if broken, replacing.
• Boiler pressure is low – Try repressurising your Boiler and monitor the pressure.
• Boiler doesn’t maintain pressure – There’s likely a leak somewhere in the Boiler.
• Loud/Unusual Noises – Noises are usually caused by a fault, don’t ignore it and get it checked out.

Whatever the issue with your Boiler, one of our engineers will find the fault and make the necessary adjustments or repairs to get it working again.

We also offer Underfloor Heating and Air Conditioning services.
