Frequently Asked Questions

What types of boilers do you repair?

As experienced heating engineers, we repair all major boiler brands including Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi, Glow-worm, Viessmann, and more. We work on everything from conventional boilers in period properties to modern combi boilers in new-build apartments.

How do I know if my boiler needs a repair or full replacement?

We'll always provide honest advice based on your boiler's condition. Generally, if your boiler is under 10 years old and the repair cost is less than half the price of a new unit, repair is often the most cost-effective option. However, factors specific to your property, such as your heating requirements and energy efficiency goals, will influence our recommendation.

Are your engineers Gas Safe registered?

Absolutely. All our engineers are fully Gas Safe registered and undergo regular training to stay current with the latest boiler technologies and safety regulations. We carry our Gas Safe cards at all times and encourage customers to verify our credentials.

Can you help with landlord gas safety certificates?

Yes, we provide comprehensive landlord gas safety checks and certificates for rental properties across Wandsworth. We can schedule these around tenant availability and provide digital copies of all certification for your records.

How can I prevent future boiler problems?

We recommend annual boiler servicing to maintain efficiency and prevent breakdowns. During servicing, we'll clean vital components, check for potential issues, and ensure your system is running at optimal efficiency. We can set up annual service reminders for customers to help you stay on top of maintenance.

What should I do while waiting for an engineer to arrive?

If safe to do so, check your boiler's pressure gauge (it should read between 1 and 1.5 bar), ensure your thermostat is working, and check if other gas appliances are functioning. Make a note of any unusual noises or warning lights. This information helps us diagnose the problem more quickly. However, if you smell gas, call the National Gas Emergency Service immediately on 0800 111 999 and follow their safety instructions.
