A Proper Boiler Service Takes More Than 10 Minutes
Annual Boiler Service
Tired of engineers who supposedly service your boiler in 10 minutes?
We don't believe in rushing a boiler service.
We typically allow 30–60 minutes for a regular boiler service, giving us time to properly inspect, clean, test and adjust your boiler rather than simply carrying out a quick inspection and ticking a box.
Regular servicing helps keep your boiler safe, efficient and reliable, while identifying potential problems before they become expensive breakdowns.
It's also particularly important for newer boilers, as maintaining the manufacturer's recommended service schedule is a condition of the boiler warranty.

What's Included?
Our annual boiler service includes:
Cleaning the condensate trap
Cleaning the magnetic filter, where fitted and accessible
Checking and re-pressurising the expansion vessel
Checking and adjusting system water pressure
Flue gas analysis
Air integrity and safety checks
General inspection and operational checks
Every part of the service has a purpose. For example, during combustion, water vapour is produced and subsequently condenses inside a modern condensing boiler. The resulting condensate is acidic and can combine with combustion residues and deposits, forming material that can accumulate around the combustion chamber and condensate drainage route. If drainage becomes restricted, condensate can back up into the boiler and eventually contribute to flame-recognition faults and boiler lockouts. Cleaning the condensate trap and checking the drainage system helps prevent this type of problem.
Similarly, checking the expansion vessel helps control pressure changes as the heating water expands and contracts. The expansion vessel air compartment loses pressure over a period of time, causing frequent pressure drops and boiler lockouts; cleaning the magnetic filter helps remove ferrous debris from the heating system; and flue gas analysis provides valuable information about combustion performance and safe operation.
We service all major brands, including Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Baxi, Ideal, Viessmann, ATAG, Glow-worm, Main and Potterton on all types of systems including Combi Boilers, System Boiler and Traditional Heat Only Boilers.

Why These Checks Matter
Need a Full Strip-Down Service?
After several years of regular servicing, we may recommend a full strip-down service.
This includes everything in our regular service, plus:
1
Removal of the burner and cleaning of the combustion chamber
2
Gas valve adjustment, where required
3
Replacement of service components where necessary, including spark electrodes, burner gaskets, automatic air vents, pressure sensors and pressure relief valves
We regularly carry Vaillant service kits in our vans, so where the appropriate kit is available for your particular boiler, we can often carry out a full strip-down service during the same visit, rather than requiring you to arrange another appointment.
Parts and service requirements vary by boiler model, so we'll confirm what is required before carrying out additional work.
