Boiler Servicing

TM Hughes & Son Gas Engineers have serviced Boilers around Maldon for many years. An annual Boiler service greatly helps prevent breakdown and ensures smooth, efficient running, so you get the most from your energy spent.

The Boiler is the hardest working appliance in any home, running day and night providing you with hot water and heating throughout the colder months.

There’s never a convenient time for a Boiler breakdown. Most failures occur at the most inconvenient time, during winter in freezing conditions.

Fixing a Boiler can take time and can be expensive (we can usually get Boilers back up and running quickly with fair rates and no call-out charges).

Prevention is better than cure, so why not protect yourself from this unpleasant scenario with a TM Hughes Boiler Service? Our prices are also amongst the best in Maldon.

Benefits Of An Annual Boiler Service

  • Less prone to failure
  • Run more efficiently
  • A lower carbon monoxide risk
  • Cost less to run
  • Validates Home Insurance

Gas Safe Registered

Always use a Gas Safe Registered engineer when working on your gas appliances. All TM Hughes engineers are fully certified and registered.

Book an engineer at any time that is suitable for you. On arrival, he’ll produce his Gas Safe identification. So you can rest assured you’re dealing with a qualified professional (our engineers also have years of experience).

All Boiler servicing is carried out to a high standard following strict procedures. Our engineers are tidy and will always leave the work area as they found it. Following the service, your Boiler will run at the maximum possible efficiency (how well it runs will depend on the Boiler’s age and condition).

Recommendations are given for your Boiler and central heating system (so you can get the most out of it). Sometimes, we uncover issues that may require attention during a service so an inevitable fault doesn’t occur. We carry many parts in stock on our vans. For the parts we don’t stock, we can usually source locally. We’ll always ask you first and give you a price before carrying out any additional work.

Boilers are checked for signs of carbon monoxide, we’ll recommend carbon monoxide alarms for homes that don’t have them. The risk of carbon monoxide poisoning is greatly reduced with an annual boiler service, giving you peace of mind that you and your family will be safer following the service.

Many home insurance policies cover Boiler breakdowns, but only if the Boiler has been serviced annually. Documentation is provided so you can prove the service to your insurers if you experience a failure.

The Boiler Service Procedure

Visually examine the exterior of the case, remove the case and inspect the interior. This process allows us to identify corrosion caused by exhausted rubber seals and pressure valves.

Damaged cases will be mended (if possible). All seals and pipework are thoroughly checked for corrosion, tightness and leaks. These can be changed during the service if necessary.

Boiler Pressure

Next, the pressures is checked and adjusted to ensure optimal water flow. We’ll soon find out if there are any blockages in the system (blockages can cause the Boiler to keep switching off).

We then extensively clean the internal elements, which will help your Boiler run smoother and allow us to perform all tests precisely.

Gas Burner

Gas burner pressures are checked and adjusted as necessary. Next, we will use a gas meter to check that your Boiler uses the correct amount of gas per hour. This analysis is known as a ‘gas rate check’.

Another instrument we use is a ‘flue gas analyser’ placed inside the flue to measure the rate of oxygen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. This test ensures that your Boiler is safe and running efficiently.

The flue’s job is to expel all dangerous gasses while retaining maximum heat. We make sure the flue’s set up properly. If it isn’t, it’s adjusted so it’s safe and doesn’t waste heat.

Ventilation

The ventilation around the boilers is checked to ensure that the Boiler finds the required 10 meters of cubic air for every meter of cubic gas.

Ventilation is crucial for sufficient boiler function and safety. Your Boiler’s home to various safety devices and valves prevents internal damage in the event of failure.

These are checked to ensure proper function and renewed if necessary. The final safety check ensures no gas leaks from the Boiler or pipework. Finally, the case is cleaned and refitted. We then switch the Boiler on.

Radiators

We check that radiators are heating up properly and bleed them to remove any trapped air (a common occurrence in heating systems that prevent radiators from heating up properly).

Sometimes, we find radiators full of debris (old rust and particles built up over the years). This build-up prevents heating in the bottom and middle of radiators. If it’s severe, we may recommend a Powerflush.

We’ll check all exterior pipework for adequate insulation and make recommendations on any exposed pipes, as frozen pipes are a common cause of Boiler failure.

Finally, our Maldon Gas Engineer will tidy the work area and write you a service record. You must keep this record in case you need it for insurance.

Boiler Repairs

Throughout Maldon, homes and businesses rely on their Boiler to work hard day and night to supply essential hot water and heating.

Boilers comprise various parts under constant strain from gas, heat, flowing water and debris naturally occurring in central heating systems.

During the working life of 10-15 years, it’s inevitable that your Boiler will break down at some point. An unwanted nuisance that many home and business owners consider to be time-consuming and expensive.

That’s not the case, and there’s no need to be anxious if your Boiler’s broken down. TM Hughes & Son Gas Services Ltd have been repairing Boilers in Maldon and the surrounding towns and villages for over 30 years.

Gas Safe Registered 24-hour emergency plumbers are always on hand to deal with Boiler failures and issues. We also offer a range of other plumbing and central heating services.

What Do To If Your Boiler Stops Working?

Turn off your Boiler. If your boiler is leaking, shut off your main water supply. Call us immediately on 01621 880075.

You’ll be greeted on the phone by an experienced heating engineer who’ll tell you what to do next and answer any questions.

The engineer will arrange a time to come and look at your Boiler within 2 hours or at the most convenient time for you so that there’s no disruption to your working day.

The Boiler Repair

TM Hughes & Son is a Gas Safe Registered and Worcester Bosch accredited company. Over the years, we have repaired all types and makes of Boilers. Our experience enables us to repair any Boiler quickly and efficiently.

When the engineer arrives, he’ll produce the required Gas Safe identification. So you know you’re using a qualified legal specialist capable of fixing your Boiler.

The Boiler is thoroughly inspected to diagnose the fault. Once the cause is established and what we need to do is clear, you’ll be given a full quote for parts and labour. No extras will be added on completion.

As an established local company with a competent, efficient staff, we are cheaper than large national companies and can compete with other local heating firms.

Prices are often analysed to ensure they stay low and fair compared to the costs of different heating engineers in the area. Rest assured, you’ll be satisfied with our prices and workmanship.

After being given the go-ahead to start work on your Boiler, the engineer will source the required parts. We carry many in stock on our vans. Any other components can usually be acquired locally in a short time.

Once all the parts are in hand, the engineer will repair your Boiler in a tidy manner.

After the repair, your Boiler and central heating system are thoroughly tested to ensure they won’t fail again or cause you any problems. Radiators are bled to expel excess air and allow them to heat from top to bottom.

The work area is tidied and left as found.

Boiler Recommendations

Recommendations may be made after the repair to prevent you from running into any Boiler problems in the future. It’s recommended that you have your Boiler serviced annually. It’s not just us, Boiler manufacturers and home insurers also want an annual service to comply with their terms.

A Boiler service allows your Boiler to run at the best possible efficiency, saving you money on heating bills. Servicing uncovers faults that could become future problems and confirms that your Boiler is safe with no risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Finally, a service validates most home insurance policies. If your Boiler hasn’t been serviced in the past year, then your insurance may not cover you in the event of boiler failure.

Powerflushing may be recommended for older systems clogged up with sludge and debris (which may have been the cause of your Boiler failure).

This build-up prevents radiators from heating at the bottom and, in severe cases, the middle. Debris can and does cause damage to internal boiler parts. We can remove the build-up by pumping chemicals through your central heating system. Protecting your Boiler and allowing optimal heat output from your radiators.

Our friendly engineers will write a free, no-obligation quote for any additional work you may require or want to do.
