Boiler repair near you, priced the honest way
Nobody can give you an exact repair price over the phone without seeing the boiler, and anyone who does is guessing. What we can do is tell you exactly how the visit is charged.
The first hour on site is £85, including VAT. That covers finding the fault and, in many cases, fixing it. If the repair needs a part or more time, we give you a fixed price for the rest of the job before we carry on. You decide whether to go ahead.
What’s included in a repair visit
- A Gas Safe registered engineer (To confirm: gasSafe) for gas and LPG, or an OFTEC registered technician (To confirm: oftec) for oil
- Fault finding, including reading error codes and fault history
- Safety checks on the boiler and flue
- Up to one hour of labour on site
- A fixed quote for any further work or parts, before it starts
- A written record of what we found and what we did
Common faults we fix
Gas boilers: low pressure and pressure loss, no hot water on a combi, ignition failure, fan and pump faults, diverter valve faults, frozen condensate pipes, and error codes on Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi and other makes.
Oil boilers: lockouts, failure to fire after running out of oil, smoke or a smell of oil, blocked filters and nozzles, photocell and electrode faults, and pump problems on Grant, Firebird, Warmflow, Worcester and Riello-burner systems.
Before you book: what you can safely check
- Pressure. On a sealed system, the gauge should usually read between 1 and 1.5 bar when cold. If it is below 1, your boiler manual explains how to top it up.
- Reset. Press reset once. For oil, if it does not fire, wait a few minutes and try once more, then stop: repeated resets can flood the combustion chamber.
- Power and controls. Check the fused spur switch is on, the thermostat is calling for heat and the timer is set.
- Frozen condensate pipe. In freezing weather, a gas boiler that gurgles and stops may have a frozen pipe outside. Pouring warm, not boiling, water over it often clears it.
If you smell gas, leave the property and call 0800 002 001. Do not touch switches or use flames.
How booking works
- Book a repair visit online or email [email protected]. Tell us the fuel, the make and what is happening, plus any error code on the display.
- Get confirmation with the date, the time window and the first-hour price.
- On the day, your engineer finds the fault and fixes it within the hour where they can, or gives you a fixed price for the rest.
What happens after
You get a written record of the fault, the fix and any parts used. If the repair needs a part we do not carry, we tell you when it is due and book the return visit. If the boiler is unsafe and cannot be repaired on the day, we make it safe and explain what that means.
