Boiler servicing is one of the most popular services we offer in Leighton Buzzard and Milton Keynes.

It’s no wonder, as servicing your boiler is vital to ensure it has a long and healthy life whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or own commercial premises.

There’s a lot of work that goes into servicing your boiler so we thought we’d explain in a little more detail exactly what we do to make sure your boiler lasts for years to come.

Our Gas Safe registered engineers will check the following:

  • Check boiler controls
  • Gas and pressure flow
  • Seals checks
  • Electrical connections
  • Gas pipework checks to ensure no leaks
  • Cleaning of filters
  • Cleaning of condense trap
  • Carbon monoxide test
  • Issue boiler service certificate

Our engineers will inform you should any aspect of our checks not pass our stringent tests or where they do not meet building and safety legislation.

Typically most boilers will require servicing annually to ensure their continued smooth operation during their life. In some instances servicing your boiler each year is a legal requirement.

Are there benefits to servicing my boiler?

One of the biggest benefits is to ensure the smooth and efficient running of your boiler. In some cases our engineers can quickly remedy where a boiler is operating inefficiently, an inefficient boiler could be costing you money, certainly more than the price of a service.

How long will it take to service my boiler on the day?

As a rough guide, a boiler service should last around 30 -45 minutes depending on the boiler type and where it is located in your home.

Should your boiler have any issues and require work, our engineers will discuss this fully with you prior to doing any additional work. Thankfully though, in most cases, we’re able to sign off the boiler for another twelve months.
