What we check

What a boiler service covers.

Every service we carry out in Whitchurch follows the same checklist, whichever make of boiler you have. It is the same thorough boiler servicing we do across the area.

Visual inspection

We check the boiler, the flue and the pipework for signs of leaks, corrosion, damage or overheating, and make sure the boiler has the clearances and ventilation it needs.

Key parts cleaned

Where the manufacturer calls for it, we open the boiler up and clean essential components such as the burner, the heat exchanger and the condensate trap.

Gas and flue tested

We test the gas pressure and check the flue gases with an analyser to confirm the boiler is burning cleanly and venting safely, which also reduces the risk of carbon monoxide.

Controls and safety devices

Thermostat, timer, pressure relief valve and safety devices are tested, so the boiler responds as it should and shuts down safely if something goes wrong.

Pressure and expansion vessel

We check the system pressure and the expansion vessel, the usual culprits when a heating system keeps losing pressure between services.

Findings in plain terms

You get a clear explanation of what we found and any follow-up work we recommend, with no pressure to go ahead. If a part needs replacing, we can quote for the repair.

How it works

Your boiler service in three steps.

  1. Step 1: Book a time

    Tell us the make and rough age of the boiler and when it was last serviced. We arrange a time that suits you, or your tenant.

  2. Step 2: The service

    We work through the checklist above, clean and test the boiler, and check the flue, the controls and the pressure of the heating system.

  3. Step 3: Your record

    You get a record of the service for the warranty and your own paperwork, and for rented homes the landlord gas safety certificate where one is needed.

What it costs Free quotation

Tell us about the boiler and the property and we will confirm the cost before booking you in. Quotations are free, with no obligation.

Once a year. Manufacturers recommend annual boiler servicing, most warranties need it to stay valid, and it keeps the boiler and the rest of the heating system working safely and efficiently. It also catches worn parts before they cause a breakdown.

Yes. Landlords must have the gas appliances in a rented home checked every year by a Gas Safe registered engineer. We carry out landlord gas safety checks in Whitchurch and provide the required certificate, and we can service the boiler as well.

A gas safety check confirms the gas appliances are safe to use, and is what landlords need a certificate for. Boiler servicing goes further: the boiler is opened up where needed, cleaned and adjusted so it keeps running efficiently. Landlords often have both done together.

Yes. Most manufacturer warranties need an annual service to stay valid, so book the first one around a year after your boiler installation. If you are thinking about replacing an older boiler instead, we are happy to talk through a new boiler installation too.
