What's your boiler doing?
These are the calls we get most from Blackpool homes, especially once the weather turns. Whatever it is, we've seen it before.
No heating or hot water
Radiators stone cold, or the tap never warms up. Could be a diverter valve, a pump, a fan or a control fault. We'll track it down.
Losing pressure
If you're topping it up every week, something's leaking or the expansion vessel has given up. Topping up just hides the problem.
Error codes and lockouts
Flashing lights or a code on the display, and it won't stay on after a reset. We know the codes on all the main makes.
Leaks and drips
Water under the boiler or round the pipework is never one to ignore. Turn it off if you can and give us a ring.
Banging, gurgling or whistling
Odd noises usually mean air in the system, sludge, or a part on its way out. Better caught early than when it packs in.
Won't fire up
Clicking but no flame, or nothing at all. Ignition and gas valve faults are bread and butter for a Gas Safe engineer.

Boiler repair questions
How quickly can you come out to a broken boiler in Blackpool?
Usually the same day or the next, Monday to Saturday during working hours. If you've no heating or hot water, tell us when you ring and we'll do our best to get to you first.
Which boiler makes do you repair?
All the main makes, including Baxi, Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Viessmann, Glow-worm, Potterton and Alpha. If yours is something more unusual, just ask.
Is it worth repairing an old boiler?
Sometimes, yes. A cheap part on a sound boiler is worth fixing. But if it's well over ten years old, keeps breaking down or parts are hard to get, a new boiler is often better value. We'll give you an honest answer either way, and you decide.
What should I check before I call?
Check the pressure gauge (usually between 1 and 1.5 bar when cold), make sure the thermostat is turned up and the timer is on, and if you have a prepayment meter, check there's credit on it. If it's none of those, give us a ring.
If I need a new boiler, do you charge for the quote?
No. Quotes for a new boiler are free and there's no obligation. John will explain the options that suit your home and your budget, with no pressure.
We also cover boiler repairs in Knott End & Preesall and Poulton-le-Fylde. Or see all our plumbing and heating services.
